I mean games like CS feel way to empty even with the bots running around. What stops DICE from doing this ? 20v20 may work on GA but in CS it feels so out of place.

I think it would overload the consoles. They had some problems with performance on consoles in CS before as I recall. Maybe if the game gets ported to next gen consoles they will expand CS player max number.
Agree. I think the current modes are pushing the limits on console
Was that a problem in other DICE titles aswell on console ?
No idea to be honest.
Only when most of the console player base has moved to next gen, because the current mid-gen consoles can’t handle more than 20v20 at this point in time
Imo the game needs more stuff opposite of that, gamemodes with smaller amounts of players or larger open stuff that gives you a bit more freedom like cc but for more eras (I know st is coming but I'd be nice for the ot too)
It's super chaotic sometimes with a lot of players, Crait, Hoth and especially death star 2 can be such clusterfucks
All the maps you mentioned are not CS maps. There are gamemodes like the one you want, they are just dead.
The last paragraph is there to make a point of GA maps being not so good. I know they're not CS maps because then they might have been more enjoyable.
While yes only the popular gamemodes get the most players, I think plenty of people would welcome something smaller scale. Assault in unreal tournament, basically the smaller scale equivalent of GA but with better map and objective designs, is one of the most popular gamemodes of the game.
It would be a good idea but the lobbies would be super hard to fill
Well make it so that it is still with bots filled and as soon as more player join the bots get kicked out. So you could start at the current default.
This could work, but many players don’t like joining matches that are already in progress.
Ye, but that happens all the time anyway. I also hate to join games in progress though.
You have it right Datboi. I mean we have people who can't wait 5 minutes for a H v V lobby to fill, so I doubt they will wait for a lobby requiring 80 people in it to fill. If you implemented something like this it would become known as "lobby mode" as that is what you'd spend most of your time doing, siting in the lobby waiting for it to fill.
