So with the introduction of rubbish grunts, it allows them to try and bring something more by getting points and kills towards victory. Plus it just makes the match look more busy than it otherwise would be, and gives the addition of just more to do, by killing not only your human enemies, but AI enemies, and whatever objectives you may have to do.
Still doesn't really interest me, but for people who like shooters, I can see this being a potential hit for many of them.
And Willo out of interest, have you played the Beta, I'm presuming not? I can't say having not played this, so I'm only going on what I have seen, but there is so much action going on, that many people could already consider it as a mini cluster-****. So if you added more people, you really would be struggling to cope with the sheer amount of action and stuff going on screen. That's my impression at least going from what I've seen.
