Server Size

Players are way to spread out and the game juat gets boring, the server size needs to be at least doubled

You say the players are spread out to much…but also want server bigger. :/

He is clearly talking about ships per server. Maybe start re-reading things and/or take things in the best possible light.

The servers can't handle bigger populations.

Also, some of us don't want to be attacked every 3 minutes, and doubling the population would make the game world so crowded that that is exactly what would happen.

This is true but John anti cheat has an idea that looks pretty cool for those who do want to be attacked every 3 mintues.

No no. He clearly said players. Not ships

Mean what you say. Don’t say what you mean.
Better for people if you want your argument to stick

In some ways I like the idea of more players in a server, but the current balance of seeing people vs being able to get things done without friction is nice right now, especially since more often than not people will just attack you on sight rather than trying a fun play or having a good natured interaction.

Players are normally found on or near what thing exactly? Oh yeah ships!

Nor does more players equal larger map. Take the L and move on.

If players are so disperced, it's above all to allow us to take part in the many activities offered by the game.
As we all know, let's be honest for 5 minutes: let's imagine there were either more players (more ships), or a smaller map: it would be hellish, and believe me, the game would NEVER have lasted as long as it did.
We've already seen what happens when you have 6 crews on a small map, and the result has been more than unbearable.

If you want to see people and fight, there's only one solution: the hourglass.
In fact, the game offers you everything you need, you just have to use the tools.

Also, many of you are asking for larger servers, but know this: right now, if Rare set up servers with more players, the game would be unplayable, it would be unstable. There are technical limitations that need to be taken into account.
