Too many people I could see being a reason, as it would be the biggest Esports by a fair old gap. Organising and coordinating with that many people would be hard, and bringing them all to a live event again would be a problem. I don't think its the end of the world though. More people means more variables and generally, more interesting gameplay.

Support for SoE is a must, thats very true.

The 60+ players point, and hard to see who is winning i don't agree with.

For a start, you can see on the HUD how close the base is to being captured - and if you had a spectator mode (like LoL has just added in) i don't think it would be a problem. Planetside as a moment by moment game isn't hard to follow. The over-all map stratergy is, but thats not what the fight would be about. If you see a Reaver kill a Scythe, thats obvious. If you see one squad wiping out another, thats also obvious.
