The current game design is such that players will get a titan at roughly the same time. (Good ones get it just a bit early)
So the game initially starts with only infantry combat, then the titans start dropping and they keep coming until the end.
Once called, the titans do not have an expiry timer, and will stay on the field until dead.
This was just some background info.

If you have 10 players, but only 6 can call a titan, then those remaining four players are SOL.
They have no immediate way of knowing when a titan is about to be destroyed, and even if they did, they'd have to play roulette with any other team-mate by spamming the 'call titan' button hoping their request goes through.
(There's also the question of whether a team-mate will want to help a friendly titan if that titan's death means they finally get to call in one)

I'd imagine that'd be pretty frustrating. Even more so when you consider that there are burn cards which affect the build time for titans, and that becomes meaningless if you have to wait to call one.

Calling a titan itself is a strategic move. Sometimes it pays to wait and call a titan over a group of enemies or an enemy titan (crushing the target to death) or in cases when you really need it (calling in a titan to guard a point while you capture it).
These elements go out the window if calling a titan isn't guaranteed. (It'd be like if UPS was in charge of delivering titans)

I'm not sure why you think the bots will decrease in 10v10. The bots are not there to replace human players, they're there to support them. You can hack the AI to make them follow you and help in fights (quite effective if you have a decent number of AI following you).
You can also target enemy AI to get some easy points, but that still takes time, bullets, and attention. All of which means that any nearby enemy pilot can get the drop on you.
For these elements to still be part of the game, you'd need to increase the bot count with the players.

So that's a lengthy response as to why increasing the pilot count and restricting the titan count are not good ideas.

I'm glad I live in a world where you will never be a game designer.

Your argument doesn't really makes sense because those games are designed with specific criteria, just like Titanfall.

If you naysayers would play the game for 5 minutes you would understand why 6v6 is perfectly acceptable. Instead you complain in these forums and question game design choices without ever playing the game. TF isn't trying to be any of the games you mentioned above and its really sad that some gamers can't that.

Playing in a titan IS the game. If there's 25 people in the map, and only 12 people can have titans, then the other 13 people on each team are just waiting helplessly for their turn.

Everything you do before you enter your titan is a grind. You run around, you kill some bots, you kill a player or two and then you've got a titan waiting for you. That's Titan Fall's game loop.

Doing what you think would benefit Titan Fall would in all actuality ruin it.

Learn to think like a game designer.

"Why not make it so that it's 25v25 and only six people per team can call out a titan at once"
1.I'll just quote @Ducky because he basically debunked the hell out of this nonsense that more players=better gameplay

^ This pretty much debunks anyone who says "more players and limits on bots would be better" Because I for one would not want to mash the call titan button and possibly miss out OR ruin someone else's gameplay because I called out my titan.

2."Bots have no place in an online game"
Oh really? So I guess LoL, MOBA, DOTA 2, all suffer from having minions/bots on the map? Didn't know that, because obviously your opinion is fact and anything you says goes even if you have not even played the game.

3.If more players=better gameplay then MAG must be one of the best FPS games ever to come out, oh wait. Just because it's next gen, doesn't mean that player count MUST increase for no reason.

4."Ten people say if it was more you would die every 3 second, Battlefield 4 have over 30 vehicles and it works there."
GASP, it's almost like they made the game that has different mechanics in mind by comparison. Hoo would've dought tat rite gais? If you want slower paced gameplay with larger maps and 30 vehicle gameplay, then you can play battlefield 4. If you want much faster paced gameplay with tight parkour mechanics.

That's like asking "what's the point of minions in a competitive MOBA?"

they are purely cannon fodder to make the maps feel more alive. nothing more, nothing less.

agreed. i dont get how people think all next gen games need a huge player count. WHY?! the more people in your team, the less impact you put in the match. i want to be able to be put a huge influence on the end result. that just cant happen on a 32v32 match in my opinion.

Yes and a game that any solid gamer can inter-great into this game great fast paced game and only takes one person with a titan and nuke explosion to turn the tide in the match.
