Reportedly the leaked PC-version supports 8v8. Obviously this is far from official, but its what i've read from several sites.
No need for the leaked dev folder to tell you that. Check out Multiplays web site, GSP's are allowed to sell 8v8 although as per usual Crytek haven't said any official.
The big question will Crytek allow modders to tweak the server dll's to increase the player slots. This will be the only way we as a community can create other MP maps etc. Otherwise all mapper are going to be stuck creating quite small maps for 8v8. But hey I'm sick of repeating myself on this subject, you never know Crytek may have a surprise up their sleeve still....hopefully
it will happen

oh and don't forget cell i have faith in you to produce some excellent maps for C2
