I think the biggest challenge with doubling the player count (meaning number of mercs running around, whether AI or human) is just plain old performance, both server and client.
I'd say by far the biggest challenge would be solving the problem that adding more players makes the game complete rubbish to play.
You'd need a complete redesign of most of the game - weapon attributes, maps and so on.
In TF2's case 24 is pushing it (although I suppose trading and sniping have both been ways Valve have designed TF2 to get 9v9 or less, even with 24 players on a server)
