Title should be "Forget about MAG... and the smaller scale Huxley". Huxley was less players than MAG is.

Anyways, how many players is this game?

Probably thousands. Possibly tens of thousands depending. CCP is huge on signle shard games. That is, every player is essentially on one sole server. This is how EVE runs (up to around 150-200k players I believe) and it is I expect this game to run.

@john
Release date is sometime next year I believe. Possibly early 2011 though. The noise from the developers has been that they have been working on it for a while.

Huxley was said to have thousands of players, but trimmed down for each server. But anyone could play against anyone. And also go against normal foes like in WOW. It was a different far bigger game than MAG, so yeah MAG was smaller scale.
