#4.5k pop with 100 aint it

125 pop is currently being tested on PTB as far as I'm aware
Higher pop is on our list, Bigger Maps had to be brought in first - to make way for increased population. Testing for this will begin shortly.
Higher pop should have came first. 100 pop even on 3.5k can feel lonely at times.
We have seen loads of posts asking for higher pop on 3.5k maps, don't think I've seen one post asking for bigger maps with 100 pop.
Do you guys have a estimate or plans on how much you want to bring out at a time. You talked about how you wanted to bring 125 to the game first, is this still the case?
Stability is more important than Population. If the server is unstable at 100 pop, it will be a nightmare at anything bigger than 100
so a pop increase would have been better to test on the 3.5km maps we have, as you said stability is priority. Bigger maps were not a priority.
If I understood correctly, the world 2.0 was not only aboutthe map size, it made huge improvment to performance and everything with the terrain, so it needed to be done before the higher pop so the performance can cope with it.
Bigger maps were a priority. Bigger maps are designed to allow more people. Stability is the piority
