Atomic: Well, I can tell you that we’re looking at PC as our main platform for the game. We're gonna support 64 players, dedicated servers... that’s basically it. Atomic: That’s basically it? Patrick: Yup. Atomic: Anything else you can talk about in terms of- Patrick: -A lot of people ask us about 64 versus 128 or 256 players. Technically, we can go to 256, we’ve tried it. We play tested with 128. You’ve got to make a game that’s fun to play. And, arguably, we think that the most fun you can have is when it’s between 32 and 40 players. And we’ve done substantial research into this and tested 128 and that it’s not fun. Maybe we haven't done our design work good enough, but we just feel like there's no point in going higher than 64. Atomic: So are you planning any sort of dedicated server model for consoles? Patrick: I can’t talk about that but we're absolutely looking at it, yeah.
