And why bigger maps wont fit with AC gameplay? We cant do smaller than arid btw. Also I dont think AC is a competitive game.
Long story somewhat short:
AC was designed for about 6 players max from the start. Anything beyond that will cause more or less issues regarding graphics in first place. You can't have huge maps (engine can't handle those well), and therefore there's only limited space to actually play on. At this point things become gameplay related.
I'd say 4vs4 could still work on maps like ac_arabian, but anything beyond that isn't going to leave enough space for tactics, at least when it comes to CTF. Keep in mind, the flag spot is usually the spawn spot. Picture an 10vs10 CTF on AC. You take out 3 to 5 enemies while rushing to their flag and them all are going to spawn just when you arrive there. No chance getting out there in one piece.
