Gundam Online - 160,000 Simultaneous Connections?

Posted by simoniker on from the god-darned-gundam-goodness dept.

Hido writes "A new PC MMO title called Gundam Online: Universal Century is being developed in Japan by Bandai and Sammy , and is currently in its beta testing stage. The site says: 'We are trying pretty stimulating thing such as 160,000 people's simultaneous connection, a seamless space expression, reappearance of earth area in a full scale, and real-time-transmission in the specifications.' More info at the official Universal Century site - and here's a link to some more screenshots and movies." Quite apart from the wonderfully descriptive Engrish on the official site, has anyone seen, translated, or otherwise checked out Beta reports from this MMO title?

    I mean if you want you could be a geek programmer eating pizza all day and getting fat if you wish to and you actually get FAT.
    But will you be able to post about games that let you play a geek programmer eating pizza all day and getting fat on /.?
