Ultima Online could do 100+ visible people back in 1997.
But I don't believe WoW could do it now, the last time I played WoW, early last year, in a large raid, there would be spells cast from invisible people because the characters wouldn't even load.
- codycraven 5y agoThe lag around the Britain bank when busy (even sometimes Moonglow bank) made it nearly unplayable though, and the game was only 2D.
- philliphaydon 5y agoI remember on a player run server (Novus Opiate) we had a random battle one day of red vs blue and we had about 80-100 people in Britain run through a portal into Buccaneer's Den, slaughtering all the reds, and all the reds banded together to kill the blues. It was well over 100 people with minimal lag, with most people on 56k modems. But Britain bank with lots of people was always laggy. Especially if there wasn’t a server reboot in over a week.
