300 is nothing, we almost reached 500 yesterday morning.
180 seems a nice stable population.
As an end-gamer. This is bad. Can't step outside in fear of lagchets.
I'm just going to wait and see it die off later today so I can log back in without getting murdered by a lagchet (as there is someone rummaging around in my base right now, but the lag makes it impossible to respond against the idiot)
My place was taken over and looted by five lagchets.
Thank god I had all my important shit in my inventory![]()
(coughing noises)
amazing
huh?
Yay me!
And yes, it was a lagfest. Yikes.
Is it limited to 300 players?
Because i can't connect.
Error message: failed to connect to server
Too much of a lagfest maybe.
Yeah I'm giving it a break for today.. Finally managed to get enough to build some form of protection and while I'm look for a decent spot I run by someone with a big fort. "Oh well it's fine Facepunch says it's only new people who are killing each other" So as I'm running away this guy shoots me with his rifle or whatever it was.
Not fun to play right now but it's good that they're getting information about the server strength and all that.
Now is about 1000, all on one server...
I don't know how thhey are playing but I can't load the game.

1000, holy shit
They weren't playing, it was just 1000 people complaining about lag, with connects and disconnects everywhere.
The server was just cleared and everybody forcefully disconnected, with now around 500 people back on. Registration has been disabled.
Been waiting over an hour to get in, but once I got in there were so many players and so much lag that I would be hatcheted before I even heard the footsteps... I know I am in Australia (so I cant expect great ping), but I played yesterday and it was playable, now it is completely un-playable. I say kick all players (even me) and slowly let people back in as server architecture and optimization becomes good enough to handle the load. ~just my two cents~
