Today they announced that it was cut down to 5 and they will slowly work their way back up to 100 after launch (whenever that is)
Personally, I don’t think they should be aiming for 100 anymore, even if it was promised. That number was for the original pitch and was arbitrarily high since it was for a much shallower and easier to create game

It was a good decision. It was also smart of them to review the initial 100 planet goal to add some much needed context

The original pitch also had dedicated servers and those are gone, sadly.

How are they gone? The current servers are hosted by CIG, there’s no p2p or host server. How would that even work for an MMO?

dedicated servers == player-hosted servers, usually

I would say private server is more what you’re referring to, also CIG’s wording, but maybe agree to disagree. A quick search says that they haven’t cancelled that feature, but it’ll appropriately be the very last thing they work on

I’d gladly take a single functioning system rather than wait another 12 years of my life for this Kickstarter project to deliver.
