Server splits? US server numbers?

Hi guys

I assume there are at least European and US servers, at the moment. Any figures that we can have on how many people are actually playing on the US servers?

It seems like you European folks seem to have all the fun. I am playing on what I presume is a US server, and the census seems low. Even with the limited systems we have available, I am lucky if I see 2 players at a given station, and seeing 4 players while in SuperCruise is like a massive gathering. Based upon these subjective numbers, I would guess there are no more than 30 people playing on "my" server at any given moment. I know, its still beta and early, but is the US following of this game going to be as big?

And along these same notes, can I choose to log into a European server in future versions? I mean this is a game whose enjoyment somewhat stems from interactions with other people.
 
There are?

Yes, there are.

Currently, players are divided into geographical regions for Europe, America, and Australasia. The number of live servers varies depending on demand.

There is further ongoing work to improve the way the players are assigned to servers, in order to improve matchmaking, and also improving server performance to handle more players per server. There is also a known bug relating to private group matchmaking, which has been fixed. I don't know yet when these changes will go live.
