I read the update notes, and it seems as though this is a temporary solution, but is anyone sure?

I find it fairly acceptable with the inclusion of Big Team mode, as I did not have lag in every game. A full 8v8 match with no lag is spectacular, but with bots its ehh.

My only concern is that it breaks up the community into, but idk.

Big Team mode is what was normal prior to the update, from the sound of things.

The new normal is with an 8 player cap.

eh? I know I won't get it, but it would be nice to get some response from Splash Damage.

i believe its temp

Yes, it is temporary until they implement a permanent title update to fix the lag which they say they are in the process of making. For now this is how they are making the game playable for people who are experiencing severe lag issues.
