Simple and short suggestion.
Squad can hold 2 - 4 players.
Wing can hold 5 - 8 players.
(optional)
I am requesting, that we have an additional option - extended Wing.
Extended Wing should hold 9 - 12 players.
Defiler Raid scenario already has this feature automatically implemented.
We may not even need extended Wing option. We should just have the maximum cap on players for a Wing increased from 8 - 12.
In such case, a Wing can hold from 5 - 12 players maximum.
I want this option to be implemented in Invasion mode and also in T3 Tournament Cup and Dreadnought Battle mode!
Note: Team Deathmatch count maximum count can remain at 40 frags. However, it dan be also increased to 60 frags instead, if we got 12 vs. 12 matches!
This game claims that it’s an MMO. We all know that this term is completely unjustified and untrue, but at least, we should get maximum availabilty of players.
To my knowledge, game engine cannot supports more than 12 vs. 12 , that is 24 players on one map. However, the potential must be fully reached.
We should get this feature.

Very good, I like this!
But keep the “minimum players”* for a wing at 4, so we don’t bar smaller corps from dread battles (or corps trying to fight in what would be graveyard shift hours for their players), and allowing people in very small wings to join the tournament with a group of randoms to “boost” their group up to 8 (basically 2 wings on one team or 1 wing and 4 randoms on one team, it has happened before in the torney)
*This is assuming that there is such a limit, since T3 dreadbattles requires 4 players to a wing with 3 tier 3 ships in their lineup, at minimum, or 3x T4 ships for T4 dreads with 4 players.

It is possible, even with recent changes, which require no Wings.
hmn, yes you are right, the current wing size does not fix the size of dread and spec ops

I worry about 12v12 tournament matches. That might be too large for coordinated competition. I think you’re overestimating the game’s current population. (Though if it grows, this would be a fantastic idea.)
For dreads, most corps can barely get 8 players online. Perhaps some sectors become ‘Large Space’ sectors that have 12 player wings, and the rest remain at 8.
This is a good idea in principle though.
Good day! we’ve discussed your suggestion.Unfortunately we can’t implement it for now. the reason is that technical restrictions do not allow us to do this extention for Dreadnoght battle and invasion. Regarding the tournament we believe that the current situation is well balanced and is optimal, but we’ll watch this issue more closely.
Necro this thread, but because I wanted to suggest the same.
It’s annoying to form multiple GROUPS if you have between 5-9 players as a Wing only let you start with 10+.
