I asked one of the main guys over at KAOS/THQ's (Frank Delise, he's the main PC version guy) some questions in regards to map sizes, and how he thinks that games can be played competitively. He quickly replied with the following which seemed quite decent:
SPOILER: Click to view
Servers in Homefront are ranked. We are looking to add Unranked support as well fairly soon.
As for match scales, the maps are dynamic in that the spawns move with battle. Therefore the maps work with smaller player counts as well as larger ones. We also have large play spaces and small tight infantry maps which are good for 6v6, etc..
We are dedicated to making sure Homefront is used competitively so we are also releasing very power Rcon tools to manage your matches, control who spectates, record matches, etc..

I'm going to try and find out more info regarding unlocks, specifically if they can be limited etc like BF2.
What's everyones thoughts about this game so far? It's looking pretty solid
