I think there is a better chance of 8 tracks coming back than there is of free 8 player head to head.

Free or not it needs to come back! As a paying customer I would like to see it come back with a 20 or 25 person limit so squads can have a great time killing each other........................ ......... SMOG8 map rules............

I was keeping my account re-open with high hopes about the new h2h for 8-9 months without no go. I let my account to die with my expired CC. No reason to keep it open for 1-2 hour flying per month.

To me, the h2h was providing a variation of the terrains, game plays and also fast action.

IMHO
The MA with 200+ players are nothing to compare to well managed h2h rooms back then with 8 h2h old timer players: A friendly mood, good fights, respect and nice talking.

The new h2h with the custom terrain hosting possibility would be nice.

(edit)
This already posted YouTube film some how reminds about the h2h variation & goofiness atmosphere back then  :aok

In lieu of online free 8 player how abut the option of LAN capabilities. So if squaddies want to get together with each other at a location together they can. Or if 2 people want to link up off line they can. Does this sound fesible?

Btw the option for LAB nust be used offline.

What say you all??

You are kidding... right? Reminds me of my parent's high-fi they owned when I was a kid. It was about half the size of a car and the speakers on it were so bad (even when new) that it sounded like they were blown. The thing played AM radio, records, and the newest and best thing to come along; 8 track tapes.
