Well Battlefield 2 has 64 player maps, but it wasn't made by Valve so it feels different to counter-strike. Crysis Wars I think has 64 player maps, but they are usually only custom made ones. Some of the other high end games I'm pretty sure have 64 player maps, but none off the top of me head.
Perhaps you could delay selling your PS3 I guess.

and along with your 200+ strong teammates your also going to get a lovely thing called lag
Just wait until a player comes in with a crappy ping

Are you sure that other peoples ping effects your game? Its something ive always wondered about and seen convincing proofs of both sides of the argument...
I didnt realize that comes out so soon. Im excited for the game but I dont think theres going to be teams of much more than 20 people.
Well it must do because i remember in warrock....when we had lag we looked at players pings and if one had a nasty ping they would ask him to leave...when he did the game didnt lag.
also in LEFT 4 DEAD....sometimes someone comes in with a high ping and it lags the hell out the game,they vote to kick him and when hes gone it doesnt lag so i would say yes to "other peoples ping effects your game?"

Nevakonaza, you are incorrect about other people's pings messing up the server, or the client's pings.
Many times in an FPS people will kick people with high pings because either they can't contribute to the game (like in L4D, where teamwork is needed) or because they are harder to hit (Warrock, if the person is jumping all over the place, it's kinda hard to hit them).
However, someone's ping cannot affect the server you are playing on.
As for the OP; Battlefield 2 is a good game if you like flying and driving around in tanks and truck blowing the bajesus outta people, but the CQC is horrific. It takes about 3 shots to the head with an M4 from point blank to kill someone. Hopefully they'll fix CQC a little more in BF BC2.
I've become very fond of Team Fortress 2 lately, and even though it's not much like CSS (I used to play CSS on an amateur competitive level, and loved it), it still gives me the fun I need. I think the maximum I've seen on a server is around 32 players (16v16) but that seems like a lot on a medium/small map.

Thank you for the correction, I was giving numbers that were too high.
EDIT: According to the FAQ in the forums, the multiplayer portion of the game should support 128-256 players, which may be increased further over time. It seems as though there can be even more units, if the server allows for AI.

Yeah, it's pretty frustrating to be in the dark. The developer team has changed the game engine at least once, so it may take some time especially when you take into consideration the amount of features and scale of the whole project.
