Though it is only a rumour, I\'ve hard that there will be portals to the other servers so you can travel in game to see the other people(though it would be cool, I doubt that).


Acraig said: Still one server.

The selector is only for easy server switching when we need to local test / online test.

Somewhere venge posted the future structure of the server, and there we should have multiple server connected in a backbone and you shouldn\'t feel that it\'s on many servers, other than the faster connection.
But that\'s for the future

So... is this going to be one of those multi-server games in the future, like 13 different servers ?

Much later, apparently.

Planeshift wont need more than one server for atleast 5 years imo. As always, I\'m just guessing, but seeing as how Fragnetics can take a lot more players than there is atm, we wont need another one anytime soon (and yes, I know that there will be a new CB-server) :)

I don\'t care how many there are as long as it\'s stable(which is more than what could be said about the MB server).

The MB-server is very stable. However, the MB-code is not.

\"In fact we do have some documentation. We mostly keep it to ourselves though. Here is one example (work in progress) doc which may explain some things to those of you who need to get your bearings in the code.

IMO a true MMORPG should be 1 world to make the feeling optimal
