Suggestions for community games

Let's try and help Cohh with a list of multiplayer games he could play with the community. The game has to be multiplayer with a reasonably large player count (16 or more preferably) and should not be too time-consuming and easy to learn. Free to play games are preferred to allow more people to play with Cohh.

Here is my list based on games I think are decent and/or games Cohh already played with the community:
Possible games with lower player count (usually just 4) for sub-games(?):
These are my suggestions. Feel free to add more games to this list.

A lot of those sound good, you kind of cleared my list. Would also suggest:

DayZ (I know Cohh streams it on a server, but why not off-stream times aswell?)
Tactical Intervention

I really don't know if anybody like the game but maybe some Generals and heroes? Oh and it definitely should be Unturned when it gets steam overhaul, but yeah mainly all games are listed.

I didn't include DayZ because in my opinion it requires too much of a time commitment to simply learn the game/get geared/get started before you can really enjoy the game; you have a similar problem with Rust.

Tactical Intervention seems to be pretty similar to CS:GO (and Insurgency), I'll include it in the list since it is free to play.

Heroes & Generals looks interesting judging from the screenshots and trailer on steam, but I wonder how far the development of that game is right now since it is still an early access game.

I have similar concerns with Unturned as I have with DayZ. (I have not played the game so this might be wrong/irrelevant) It is a zombie survival game, so I don't know how much time investment is required, and more importantly how long you will have to play in a single session before you can enjoy the game. Do you happen to know if you can host your own servers and what the maximum playercount is?

About Unturned, yeah it is similar. It doesn't require a lot of time to learn all the things. BUT its just like DayZ, you spawn separared, without stuff. In multiplayer if there are a lot of people, you can meet them up really fast compared to DayZ, but it is still kind of hard to find items, when towns are being looted quickly. Well if playing with friends, it can actually be pretty fun not going to far in to the game. And about servers, yes you can host yourself, and i think max people lumit is 60? Though I saw even more. But I highly recommend waiting until Steam server system is Implemented, to avoid connection Errors, and it should be done soon.

Yeah, good point. However, finding an empty server for members to go into should not be a problem at all. And heck, I'm not great at DayZ but it's with the Cohhilition. We aren't exactly the most competitive players. It would be good fun more than good competition.
