I believe someone mentioned it before, and that would be great. Id love to be able to squeeze in more than 8 people. Back in the days of 20I never had trouble fitting someone into my group because I had to many. Now I have the problem of people wanting in when I dont have room.

I had an easier time leading my ladder teams on simple fps games then leading a group on here. People just dont take advantage of SL abilities, and when you do get a group together, they're just not aware of what SL's do and dont understand the commands you're giveing. And when you try to explain its like your being pushy or somthin. Id like to have bigger groups again but I just don't know if I could keep them all on the same game plan.

Surprised I havent seen anything else about this, but has anyone else considered that depending on the progression of the SL the group size could increase to the old max of 20? Or possible if 2 groups that are headed by SL's could operate as 1 Group comprised of 2 divisions of 8 players a piece. As a major goal of the CU was grouping I really don't understand the small group size - but I feel that SL's should have the ability to increase the size of their group. It'd definately make SL's more useful ingame and needed when taking down high end mobs.

I agree completely. I got so annoyed playing with a guy and a n00b last night because I died twice because of them not listening to me and not letting me apply my specials and of course not paying attention. Both times I know could've been avoided not through me adding my specials only but actually being either at the computer or Respecing. Now to cure that, what I plan on implementing to everyone I group with, is emailing each one what I can do. Those that I group with on multiple occasions I won't give them duplicates of the email. The format I plan on using is "When I use Steady aim, you will get this, when I do Volley Fire it does that, with all of the Specials that I have. That way, they see what I can give them. Because it's pointless of me being even along if all I'm doing is following others around and just hunting when I could be doing quests and working on completing missions so that I can get the tree filled in space. I've got the xp, just not the completion.
