I tried several games of 128 player Flashback Conquest with a friend, and here were our thoughts:
- We immediately found the mode way too chaotic with so many players and vehicles overwhelming us.
- Our squad could not make any meaningful impact in the game because we are such a small fraction of 128 players.
- When we tried to capture a flag, we would often get overrun by helicopters and other vehicles, which we stood no chance against.
- On every map we played, it was basically a cycle of spawning and quickly dying because there were always enemies around. There was not any organization or flow to the game - it was just a giant mess. It ruined the objective-based strategy traditionally found in Battlefield Conquest.
We will definitely not be playing any Conquest mode that has more than 64 players in the future.
