Max players 32?

[Nimble Dick]

What's the max players in game at any one time? I heard that the engine only supports a max of 32 in a server at one time, I don't see a number anywhere on the main site and all of the video's only show a max of 32 units in-game at any one time (though this is hidden somewhat for some reason? like having all the units on one side in the trailers) If that's true it sort of makes having massive battlefields a bit void, is this something the Dev team is going to address at some point in development, and would the game conceivably run smoothly with say 80 players in a server at one?

The engine has no hardcoded limit. Skirmishes (our early closed test version) will be released first while work continues on the server tech for the much larger in scale historical battles.

that's good to know, I presumed it was something being addressed in development as no official number had been laid down yet and I doubt you'd release it without saying (especially if it was only 32)

i think there will be min. 100 vs 100 ^^

well they said that they are aiming to support about 200 players, not that there will be, this is a difference in the software industry ;)

I see a problem in that much players on one Server because what's with Syncing? I hope so that there will be realistic groups of people to fight and battle but ... It's getting harder and harder I think :D

Well large amounts of players on a server has been accomplished before. I think the devs will come up with something to make it work :) I hope. We will probably learn more on the kickstarter day :D

I worked in a bottle labeling plant once and this kid got to announcing how much time we had left to work..........every minute, on the minute over the radio. The supervisor's wife started threatening his life. :rolleyes:
