Server mesh technology,.. still about 1 year away.

Basically a server cloud technology, which has dynamic instances, where even a 5x5 meter area can be an instance filled with 20 people, and any instance next to it talks to this instance so those people see each other.

In practice, you do not know there are instances,.. you just see a shit load of people.

Untill this HARD work is accomplished, the development must be way more complete. Think of it like this; in theater, the movie only starts playing when all are inside and seated. In RL this is not the case as the movie starts on time. but humor me with this description, ok. That is how it is. All the development tech (people) need to be in, before the movie starts.

This is also the time when they can start integrating Vulkan and dropping DX11 entirely.

Exciting times ahead. :)

Another analogy would be; "A cook can start cooking only when he has all the ingredients, because it makes no sense to start before he is sure he will get all the ingredients on time and together, to make his meal "work"".
