How big is a Fireteam?

Dmiller: 3 or 6 depending on the activity. PVP can handle anything up to 6.

Or am I reading "team" too literately? Or is the wording just a slip and a fire team is literately a group of three? Does that mean there will be only three people at a time in any one match made space?
Or is it just the total amount of people who can be linked with you?...or something. What is the maximum number of people in a game play space? What is to stop them all of joining us? Mega Dance Party in Destiny?!

Dmiller: In public bubbles the rule is we can allow three fireteams of 6 players.

So...

3 solo fireteams
or
3 Two-man fireteams
or
2 three-man fireteams

There are some edge-case exceptions that aren't worth discussing.

Oh! Well thank you. :)

So I suppose that means any one space will have a maximum of 6 people in the game space at "all" times, except in multiplayer. That is admittedly smaller then I expected. So therefor its plausible that if this limit has been made due to technical concerns then Bungie would have balanced the game so that six people total (along with abit a skill and the luck it affords) could defeat even the most hardy and menacing of foes. Therefor a lone guardian can very likely hold its own - nicely.

Interesting.

Edit: Wow... Just checked the E3 2013 footage, and to my surprise there are six players in the gamespace, plus our viewing character which makes it seven (Shock!/s). That makes one year later one player down. I didn't count before so I thought there was more then that. That's...

This game is going to kick so much ass. <3 Bungie.
