Since we have like an obscene amount of people now. Maybe just have a 200 player event or two? Even if it isn't a permanent thing, it'd be nice to play around on a big server again... just for a special occasion.

First of all, ask Ancientman and Nate personally. Instead of starting a public thread
Also this would have to be Developer Endorsed, perhaps even hosted.

no.... many maps arent even up to hold 100 players without becoming Strike at Karkand. Not even going to start speaking about the frames all those people kill.
Such an event will only end in a huge mess.

Well I didn't remember who had the say on all that stuff. I don't really know all the politics behind this one, I just know it was here for a while and then got removed.

Have you been in a 200p event before?
I found it very enjoying, especially CnC is fun. And 4k maps feel alot more filled with combat and like a combat operation.
I agree 2km maps and 1km maps are terrible for this, I also think Insurgency isnt a good idea. But some of the best experiences I have had in this game was on 200p servers. I would really love that experience again.

If 200p ever happens again, it will come as a interest of development from within the PR team, not just as a event randomly for fun. There is a lot of work involved in these tests. I doubt it will ever happen. But you never know
There were good fun, but it was not sufficient for stable, normal public play. And as said, 'just for a event' it's not worth it.
Anyway, re-suggestion and not in suggestion forum.
