Ok, that is great and all, but I feel like you don't understand what I am telling you.  Every player will be heading towards the same destination.  As players go in that direction, they will start encountering more and more players.  

 

now imagine if they start each player about the same distance away from the center.  As players progress towards the center from every angle they would make a sort of sphere.  As they get closer and closer to the center that sphere gets smaller and smaller.  Now, even though the universe is gigantic, most the players will be operating in this much smaller sphere of the universe towards the center, does that make sense to you?

yeah i do understand your point but the universe will also be gigantic at the very close point to the universe. You may be able to see other players the last 0,1% before you reach the center, maybe. More is unrealistic.

 

Many people made this point and its kind of right. but even if you increase the chance to visit somebody from 2e^-23% to 2e^-10% (when you get closer and closer) its still a incredible small %-chance. 

 

Only in the very last few seconds before you reach the center the space would shrink that much, that  you might be able to see some other players. But as long as you are 5minutes+ away from the center, the chances are still incredible small.
