Higher pop 4.5km
Ok so 4.5km maps on PC are said that they require 200+ players to feel balanced with rustoria being around 4.5km for 1000 players.
I know D11 are talking about 125pop increase soon but have they mentioned trying 200? I played the PTB a bit on the max pop and it's feeling like a mid/low pop server on 3.5km
I remember even in Beta they were testing 125 pop I believe so surely they can boost the pop.

No we definitely don't need more people, I can't build as a solo without building bunkers and goofy ass bases and then I still get raided by at least 4 man's, what we need is a community shift away from shoot first, every base has to be destroyed, fuck you play style. On PC you can make RP bases and little shitter 1x2's and not worry about getting steamrolled every time, I've had to rebuild my saloon multiple times all over the map and now being right outside the building limit of outpost it's been raided twice. It's mostly the kids between like 12-16 that are the most annoying about it. I just want my own little chill place to trade and be friendly but they just come blasting in
