    Just for clarification purposes:

    Max number of players on the server is 28, that means there could be a max of 7 teams of 4. Regardless of how many teams there are, currently a full server can spawn a max of 448 props. But lets say we go with Option 3, the most popular choice so far. Let's just say for instance the server was full of 28 players all on teams of 4. The max number of props they could spawn would be 280, a reduction of 168 props. Now less teammates or more individual players would make that prop count rise, but the average total would never reach close to 448 again. So overall we would see a reduction in server strain and lag.

    Also I'm seeing a lot of people saying that they already use around 40 props for a 4 man team anyway. So the only people this would really affect are the ones who are spawning every prop they can. This will also help smaller teams defeat larger teams when the team count goes below 4 after people leave. There isn't a rule to make them disband, so it can get difficult for teams of 2 or 3 to defeat a team of 4. This reduction in props will make the playing field a little better for that and other situations.
