Kind of a bummer but given that most of my friends still haven't been able to get their hands on PS5s, I was expecting to only be able to build 64 player matches so we could co-op together. Still, would be nice to be able to fill out a 128 player session with all or mostly AI if we wanted to.
Yeah agreed @Kean_1111 ,
This is a really bummer if we cannot fill up the server from the get go!
Maybe EA Dev team suddenly realized here last minute that the servers (the cheap ones that EA now rents from a 3rd party to host our game play) are not nearly as powerful as the inhouse servers they used inhouse during the game development. And therefore does not have the CPU power necessary to keep 127 AI soldiers moving...??? ☹
That could be the case but I guess we'll see if this is just a sampling of what the final Portal will be upon release or if this is really it. .....and/or whether or not this is an aspect they are looking to expand on in the future.
From what I've seen so far, Portal is coming up short on what I had expected as it seems more limited in a few ways that what I had imagined. Having said that however, I still find a lot of freedom in the options we do see right now on the website. Some of the restrictions though seem contrary to what we have heard from the devs so that leaves some hope that those are elements that may change in the release version or sometime after.
In either case, Portal is something the devs have said that they will be expanding on and if it becomes as popular as I think it might, perhaps we will see ample support for it going forward.
Personally, I am still excited about it and the only big question mark for me right now is the quality of the AI and their affect on the gameplay. If they are good as advertised, then this may be the new game that my friends and I will playing for months to come.
