Tribes: Vengeance is really fun, I got to play the beta a little while ago. If I remember correctly, Tribes 2 supported 32 players like most other games, and there were hacks to make the server size go as large as 128- It was a simple variable change that wasn't a big heavily hard-coded thing like in say, Half-Life, where there was and still isn't a way to go beyond the set 32 player max.
We can expect the same for Tribes: Vengeance in that regard. It is also extremely efficiently coded, using barely any system resources both clientside and serverside (my computer really isn't that good and I didn't use max cpu/ram usage on medium settings, and medium settings are only due to my poor poor video card) . The beta sdk proves it >.> At least these people know how to comment, unlike some others . . . *cough*DOOM3*cough*
Fun game, I don't have the cash to buy it though. ='( I also want to play Rome: Total War a bit more beyond the demo but that's for another time =P
