Erase it, or at least increase it from 8. Some group events require more positions for group members... VO has more players than when this limit was set, I believe. :-)

12 or so is a good group size as far as managing goes.

16 slots would seem to be a better limit.

1+

Aye, 12 or 16 slots would be nice.

Hmm...

Didn't the devs once say that they wanted to add larger formations and command infrastructure at some point? Rather than just raising the player limit in flight groups, perhaps its time to implement second-tier command "wings" composed of Group Leaders (essentially linking multiple groups together in a larger command structure)?

Eh, or more players in the base group could work too. Just seems like the easy way out, is all...

+1, at least double to 16 per group, preferably 25.

So they can add the now separated escorts to main convoy groups, and make possible to form one single group per nation in NW, or teamwork with more players.

Time to stop thinking small. THINK BIG, prepare to growth!

It would also be a good idea to have the UI switch to a smaller font when there's a lot of group members. I think that's already been suggested before >_>

+1. Hierarchy would be useful in some situations, but for now it would be much simpler to just bump up the limit so that the devs can focus on more interesting things. But yeah, long-run, hierarchy would be cool.
