Hosting.
« on: May 29, 2004, 06:11:29 am »
Ok we know PS will be a BIG hit when its released which means the game will be bogged down big time. Now MMORPG\'s have many servers that can hold tons of people. So my question is how will the PS dev team be able to afford that kind of a computer?

Donations. And my guess is they will use multiple servers and not one mega server. MMORPGs work better with a \"hive mind\" instead of just a solitary machine.

Well yeah but even having a \"hive mind\" they will still need to be fairly large systems.

Supporting the Planeshift project makes you look very good to prospective clients.
