Okay, I've got a one slower machine (X4 620) that takes a serious hit from player count. The game runs smoothly with 5-6 players but then when you get 7th or 8th in, the game gets unplayable. The netcode gets an insane amount of CPU time, it's very visual. I've got no problems with another comp that has a 4770k (much faster).
I'd understand the toll if there were like 32 players nearby but...

They might already have worked on this during their 'silence', we don't know... because they're silent.

I don't want to sound snarky, but I think that's your problem.
Netcode has actually improved over the past few weeks, and I've not heard anyone else say that they're been having great problems since those upgrades rolled out.
Edit: The fact that you experience no problems with a better machine is also evidence for this.

Aspiring Professional Yolodriver

Yeah, but dude, we are at 1750. As much as we would like to be Professional Yolodrivers like you [Meraple] and Lightangel112, we're not there yet. It's something to aspire to, sure, but there's a lot of ground to cover.

Nah, it's pure optimization based.
I have a 4770, and it bottlenecks at around 6 players as well.

Yeah, actually it's slightly visible with a 4770k too. IIRC it didn't behave like this a couple years ago.
What you're stating here makes no sense imo. You don't seem to understand what netcode can be.
