As the game is still in a rather early stage if you look at the feature that the current version provides the average number of people online isn\'t too high. However I believe that is subject to change once the next version is out (which is expected soon(tm), they\'re currently running closed testing).

How many people a server can handle will of course depend very much on the server hardware, its connection and the server code itself (which is under development as is the client like mentioned above).

You cannot know the uncertain. It\'s highly unlikely that the developers know it themselves. But I can assure you that the aim on the average number of players per server is a lot higher than 18. ;)

The current server can hold more than 18 clients, but since there isn\'t much to do, only few ppl. actually log in.

I remind you that MB was very early in development.

Out goals are to add support to CB for atleast 500 clients at the same time.

We have a plan to add cluster support to PS server side which will make the max clients number really high

i think they are planning to have everyone on the same server, but have different ones for different places.. if you understand. Like one world with many servers making it into a land
