Yeah, they can simply meet up in the game. Wings is coming soon, which is the grouping system.But what about the people that enjoy grouping up regularly? If they can't join up because it 'breaks immersion/space/the universe', and they're spread out across the galaxy, how do they get together for some co-op? Wouldn't they be forced to settle in the same area of space? There's a balance to be made between realism and having a game that's, you know, fun.
