    The DFM will probably be getting a staggered release. What this means is that they won't open the floodgates to all 400k pilots at once. According to these sets of notes from the show (Wingman's Hangover):

    This is not a bad thing, it just means that it will be a little longer before everyone is able to play it.

    Edit:
    (Just a note, this is not some kind of official announcement/statement, though now that it's been stated, we will probably have one soon.)

    I would hope no one thought they were going to let 400k people loose at once. I see if they do it by backers and subs and all, time you have subscribed for will be a factor. If anything, just to eliminate the guys who start a sub like a week before

    The announcement doesn't surprise me; in fact, there isn't a normal game or MMO with a huge fand base that doesn't suffer, mainly because studios woefully underestimate how much stress thousands of players put on their servers.

    The fact they acknowledge this problem is a good sign that they are going to be better prepared for when the system fully goes live.

    Apparently this may have been taken a little out of context:
