Do you think the consoles will allow for 32 player battles like PC or less like 24 BFBC2?

i hope the multiplayer is cross-platform, although it would take huge effort on crytek's behalf it is the best case scenario seeing as everyone would have access to the same maps even the modded ones by download.

Depending on how much they try and push the hardware on consoles I'm going to guess around 16 players.

I except to see atleast 24 players on PC servers; in powerstruggle 16 felt a too little amount.

anothing above 16 is good enough for me

I expect the pc to have more players and different gameplay to please the pc crowd and a gameplay to please the console crowd.

Less than 24 players would be rather bad. I would miss massive MP battles on maps like Mesa or Tarmac.

At least on PC it should be playable with 32 Players.

i hope for 42 players like crysis wars

It will be 1 player.

Hopefully for PC the amount will stay at least on 32 players, maybe with better code it can handle even more without lag issues.

Big Crysis Maps needs 28++ players {Power Struggle}
i cant say so for Crysis small maps {Instant Action}

PC version will support at least 24. Consoles, however, I can't see being more than sixteen.
