"we'll be putting as many able-bodied gamers onto the servers at once as possible."

Your right, we don't know what it means exactly.

However, I think it is more likely that, "As many...as possible," means that they will get as many people as they possibly can instead of meaning that they are being selective.

or the selection is just weeding out the dial-up's because they prolly won't mail out a disc for it thus requireing you to d/l the whole thing.

Yea, I read a tiny article on it in a PCGAMER mag AGES ago (about 1 1/2 - 2 years ago). I thought "This game is gonna rule". I kepted checking out the website now and again, i've always been following it but i've really been gettin into alot more during mid last year. I happened to forget all about PS for about a month (busy with somet, cant remember) and that happened to be the time when they had the closed beta apps up :/. I dont think i would of been able to run on my 56k, 800Mhz 128mb ram etc :P.

No offense to the 56kers - I just got DSL this last year myself- but I think it is times that Comp games, especially MMO's, should follow the XBOX, and put minimum requirements as DSL. It's just the way to go, and makes for a much more enjoyable experience. There's always a separation pain with burgeoning technology, and I think PS is a great vehicle to pass through that pain.

Well the best thing is seperate servers for 56k and less and others for DSL/Cable and higher.

High speed connections hate playing with low speed for fear of getting lagged up and low speed connections will always complain about low ping bastards. Best to just split them up.

I've been driving myself insane, whoring the forums, since they first went public with PlanetSide and fired up the official forums. That would place it around November of 2000. I'm not exactly sure why I have been in the forums day after day, when so many others have left. Just stupid I guess..lol

And as for Beta the only number I have ever seen Dave confirm, both publicly and privately is 1000 initial testers. If I remember correctly they had over 40,000 applicants. Of those only 13000 were acceptable. Of those only 1000 would be selected. In this case I would much prefer Vichio be right though since it would increase my odds of getting in.
