there are hundreds of servers worldwide

you will be able to contact any friend worldwide

there are districts that open as more come on line but you can jump among them at will

no shards where you are stuck and your friends are on another

Actually it never gets that big. I not sure where the cut off is, but after the town is "full" another district is made. Basically you have seperate instances of the same town, which you are free to change from one to the other as well as an International one (at least in the last BWE)

Ahh I see.I do believe that I read that there will be a max of how peeps are in a district.99 I think.So I guess it is possible to have 20+ districts when there are alot of people on.

I'm guessing around 25 districts on an average day, but it may go up to 40~50 on large days.

For the last BWE it was usually about 12, and that's only the beta. Come release the numbers will increase a lot.
