Amidst all the fanfare concerning the rage-quitting over MM, is the real news about server meshing. Yeah, there was news of this some months ago, but that was 100 players. This is 1,000 players. This is the real news that doesn’t deserve to be set aside while the tantrums get attention. News flash: the worst thing you can do when a child has a tantrum, is give them attention.

Here’s the real news:

What do you get with 1,000 players? One thing you can get is multiple ships, each twenty times the size of a bunker.

800 players wanting to pilot their own ships that they purchased.
190 players excited to man turrets, although half of them are distracted by YouTube videos or other family duties.
10 players interested in carrying a fire extinguisher to put out ship fires.

It wasn't clear if it was 1k players in the same verse or same server. It was my understanding that it's just the same verse with each server still limited to 100 players. Still 100 players is pretty good for a nice size fleet battle

I was under the impression they were all in the same instance. There was a label at one point marking the simulation as “500 players”.
