I'm not up to date with the latest lore. What's the next "after server meshing NOW the game will be ready?" technology or are we still waiting on server meshing?
Server meshing is the "Jesus tech" that the true believers are praying for that will somehow make all the jank evaporate in a puff of euphoria.
They've started live testing server meshing and its hilarious because when it actually works you realise they didnt design any facet of the game for more than 20 players at a time. There literally arnt enough habs for people to spawn in, way to little elevators and screens. Everything is diagetic but in such limited quantities that when they did the 1000 player test (Which only got to 750 before crashing) people had to form actual queues to use the terminals to spawn ships. Unlike a lot of people I'm pretty confident they'll eventually release a proper game I just dont think it will be any fun at all. They just keep making the game more and more tedious in the name of "realism".
This is common theme in the games "made by players for players" because the players making this game are always hardcore minmaxers and anti-fun brigadiers, which is pretty logical since only they get so royally pissed by devs not catering to them specifically that they attempt to do better. Normal player would just leave unfun game behind and move to next one.
