Also I'm wondering.. Are events just going to be cut out?

There are ways, if you haven't already seen the CTF on Iphone...
separate rooms..
I never once thought of putting 1300 people in the same level, I was trying to ask how they plan to integrate events.. or if they just won't have them.
My main point I've been trying to make is how are the going to change things to fit the playercount and stay true to the server.. It sounds impossible with a modern server, were everyone has guns, with 1000+ people on..

I don't see why there shouldn't be events. Just set a player cap and it should be fine.

I hope GameCenter doesn't freeze up the Era app randomly, like how it does to Classic.

To me, when i first log in it freezes while gamecenter is loading up, but after that.... no freeze?

I also propose multiple unsticks, since one unstick has enough traffic as is, multiple unsticks would be able to balance it out. While the 500 people are idling, the other 500 are pking

My app freezes every time I kill someone.

But with events you are given the option to warp to it...

Not quite sure what your trying to say..

Another idea I could see happening is a three level system for each event. for example.. The Event house has a list of events to go to, you pick which event you want to play, then you join in on a open level of the 3 levels for said event. There would be a wait, but with short events and 3 levels to be used for each event, it wouldn't be that long of a wait..

Dumb question, are the events automated or hosted by people?

Well If they're automated then obviously hosting events will be a lot easier if its efficiently ran. My suggestion is make it work where you have like... twenty bots, they all host something random and there can be multiples of the events hosted but no more than two of the same and let them auto host. Only problem I see is that with a potentially large community you'll need to choose your events very wisely, perhaps even modify the living hell out of events.
