Request Add More Playslots?

Like many TLOPO players, I've been using the playslot mechanic to get online as I don't have a key. I understand that eventually the plan is to release an open beta or full game without restriction.

With that in mind would it be possible to raise the number of playslots per hour? This would have the effect of still limiting the number of players during peak times (which I'm guessing is all of PM eastern time) but also generally allowing players to play more frequently.

If there are still hardware constraints that's understandable for now but if not I think having more players online wouldn't be too much of an issue (?).

Cheers :)
 
I'm not exactly 100% on this but in developer stream number six Mike Wass said eventually playtimes would be extended to maybe 4 or 5 hours, and there would be more of them (something like 50-60 or even more an hour).
 
Ahoy Ducateron,

Expounding upon what the others said above, the only reason we have PlayTimes (restrictions on how many can play at once), is because the game servers right now cannot handle as many as would like to play. A day or so ago we just hit 19,000 registered accounts. As the server becomes stronger, we will open up more PlayTimes. We actually just got done increasing them a few weeks ago.

We look forward to the day when everyone can play as much as they want. :)

19,000?! That is fantastic news. I'm totally stoked that the community is getting that much of a following. As if the Black Pearl doesn't frighten them Navy lads, the magnitude of our piratey might sure should!
