Server selection

    I think something that would help the game would be a server selector.
    Once you have your crew ready to sail and spawn in the tavern you see a list of the server showing how many pirates there are. You then choose one of them and your crew starts the game in that server.
    Something like:
    Server 1: 20/20 (unavailable)
    Server 2: 19/20 (unavailable, your crew is too big)
    Server 3: 20/20 (unavailable)
    Server 4: 15/20 (join)
    Server 5: 00/20 (join)
    Server 6: 10/20 (join)
    Server 7: 03/20 (join)
    Server 8: 20/20 (unavailable)

    Well, just an idea.

    Nothing puts me off more than a game showing me things like this.

    I'm not trying to queue up in some MMO or TF2..

    I'd rather the game just handle it behind the scenes.

    Hey,

    thanks to small instance sizes, there are so many of them, that it'd be a very long list for you to choose from. Not to mention empty instances closing down and those only partialy populated being merged together. It would change so quickly.

    It would be nice, but I think it would be a bad idea overall as you would then constantly see a bunch of servers with only 4/20 as most everyone would try to get an empty server so they dont have to worry about any other crews messing with them as they sail about.

    It doesn't fit in a game like this, and leaves a lot of potential for people to just farm empty servers.
