I can make a map five times the size of France in no time. Doesn't mean it's gonna be a good map.

I think Canada already tried this.
Wasn't the first game literally a scam?? I never dove into news about it but it seems weird they'd come around and try again.
It's not the same guys, nor is it a sequel - it's a totally different game called CrisisX. People in the comments on the trailer are calling it 'The Day Before 2' because they expect it to be a similar sort of failure.
Ah gotcha. That's what I get for not reading the article.
And then there is Eve Online with a map of 8000+ star systems and 20-30 K accounts online (and has at times been double that).
That game tricked me into math along with project zomboid
Sounds like they're running the exact same scam as with the first game.
Different dev team, different game - the headline is a bit weird but this game is not related to "the day before" at all, people are just referencing it because they reckon it'll fail the same
Making a big map isn't necessarily hard or complicated to do. Making it good would be, but if they are claiming they can handle 5000 players in the same server, something even massively funded MMORPGs barely can do, they are more than likely just gonna randomly generate a landmass and call it a day.
I see why people are skeptical. It looks really good. If this actually releases looking like this and plays well, I will be shocked. And will probably play it a bit.
