if this game is as good as the previews i'll definitely be getting it, playing it non-stop, and possibly hosting a server

i will too (minus hosting a server, plus playing in yours)
although working 10 hours a day 6 days a week this summer might put a damper in those plans...

There is no official cap, the server owner chooses how many people they want. If possible, they could have a 1000 person server.

So, you signed up for a fileplanet subscription?

i would pay $7 for an early crack at the beta.
however i will not get a fileplanet subscription because i want to fight this trend.

All that said, the game will not have a hard-locked player-limit, and as with Wolf ET, for sure, people will run larger servers (in Wolf ET many people run 64-player servers, for that ‘absolute mayhem’ experience).
