Any plans to test 100-plus players?
Sean Tracy · Technical Director of Content

We can. There's no direct plans for it right now, because, as we're seeing, if we could have 100 players in the server, we'd be doing that on the PU right now. Now with server OCS, and we hope that all opens up, we'll be happily testing something like this. But even to test 100 players in the server, I imagine we've got to get 100 people in here ready to play. So once it's running really well with 40, with ships, with ground vehicles, with everybody, then yeah, of course we can increase this.

So when you're saying 'can', you're talking about a technical possibility.

Sean Tracy · Technical Director of Content

Yeah, and that's the thing. We're going to have to test it. We just have to test it. We have to play with it. And this given map and scenario probably doesn't lend itself to that many people, because, again, of the difference we find from doing just a 4 on 4 or a 5 on 5 versus a 20 on 20. I could only imagine what a 50 on 50 looks like right now. So do we want to get to those numbers? If it makes sense for the game mode, absolutely. But yeah, I'd want to have a different scenario, something a little wider. Give it a little bit more room.

But not a backdoor confirmation of any Battle Royale mode or anything?

Sean Tracy · Technical Director of Content

No. Actually, at first we called this Not Battle Royale, when we didn't have the Theaters of War name.
