It's always fine to see someone with the same mind. I was also thinking about that issue. But I asked on planetcnc, I asked it here and asked a few mod makers. But I can tell you one thing NOBODY KNOWS!!!! 
But now for the happy part 
They used the ghoul system from Soldier of fortune (atleast it has been said, comfirm please), and the second thing is making low-poly models doesn't depend on a exact amount of polly's (for quake models are between 800 and 1000).
The only thing I can say think about 300-800 pollys you may use(can't get more accurate). I hope this will anwser your question, post if not.

thanks, I may try cutting the poly count by killing the polys people never see (the inside of the vehicle). I worked with 3D max at college, but haven't worked too much with gmax.

here is an other tip: polygons on a flat plane are useless, try making one by collaps or weld->target. also dont use nurbs or complicated forms,
a box for a tank and humans circle's (head) or cylinder(body). Textures can do alot more than a bunch of poly's

I never worked with textures, but I have seen characters without textures and the effect is dramatic.

700 - 800 per player model but you can push higher. Avoid modeling with higher order primitives (i.e. NURBS, patches, etc.) unless you want your polycount to explode. Using textures is essential to capture detail on low-poly models.

it might not be like that Spartan, but if I was playing and something like that happened and I saw it, I would probably fall out of my chair laughing so hard. Sounds like an interesting MOD though, does Mob have that kick-ass gun in the MOD?
