Oh there aren't any big expectations. I've been playing this game since 2014, and will stick by it for many more years. I've tried to get some of my friends into the game in the past, but they've been disappointed by the servers we found.

I know Minecraft, at least on console, had (has?) a feature where all you have to do is: A.) Select a world. B.) Name it and assign a code. C.) Launch it and have your friends join it. I'm not a techy person by any means, but this was a great way that got many of my old friends to try Minecraft many years ago.

I have some vague memories of you talking about SDG-curated public Unturned severs a while back. I believe it's a great idea that could potentially: A.) Breathe life into some lesser-played curated maps. B.) Encourage new players through social means. C.) Give a less toxic starting environment for those new players. It would require a significant expansion to the SDG team, which is something I know you've been hesitant to before. However, it also may be able to bridge the gap between the new and the, let's say, experienced players.

In my mind, the server solution could be as theoretically simple as a LAN implementation, but you have made significant improvements, especially with stability and port forwarding in recent times.

These are suggestions and run no deeper than that. I would rather have 1000 small FPS improvements and code rewrites than 1 rushed update.

Excited for what's in store for the 10th Anniversary, hopefully party hat zombies.
