I just wrapped up the interview with Matt Chat and Richard's statement about trying to hook users within the first 2 minutes got me thinking about server loads . Do all modes run on my PC with only verification going back to the main servers? If this game does spreads like wildfire do you guys have the ability to add more capacity 'at the flip of a switch'? If not can there be a mechanism for backers to get priority?
There are always options. I've noted that RG was been very careful in his phrasing.. "what we would LIKE to do" is have a single server. He knows there's a possibility there may be a need for more than one if necessary.
