Question to admin...
Why is W4 about 5 times smaller than W3, while it has about 3 times more people in it?

15 year olds whining at how difficult it was to find someone to murder or trade and voila. You get a Tokio.

They always start off small but as the world progresses the devs will expand the world and leave it to us to figure out when and by how much.

EDIT: forgot the answer:novaalpha wrote: Why is W4 about 5 times smaller than W3, while it has about 3 times more people in it?
This world was hastily thrown together before its time.
We are playtesters in an alpha.
I assume the devs want to try how the game mechanics work in a more crowded environment, and purposefully keeps this world alot more pop dense than W3.
I like it this way, and hope they do not expand.
What if Rosa Parks had a car?

They should have started with just one single SG.

Re: Size of the world.
The smaller world has been suggested by almost all of the more experienced players, not some whiny kiddies. The last world seriously lacked any player interaction (especially more drama
). Now we will see way more fights over quality nodes, which is how it should be. Too bad metal is so common every hermit can mine enough to build a brickwall and equip him and his 5 alts with B12s. Otherwise people would fight over those too. At least you can mine your way to other peoples metal deposits, which will hold some action I guess.

Re: Size of the world.
Smaller world -> more interaction with other players -> more fun, more drama, more kills
