7 of Pirates of the Burning Sea’s 11 severs to walk the plank
Flying Lab is bringing down seven of Pirate of the Burning Sea’s eleven servers and is giving players over a month to decide which of the four remaining servers to transfer their characters to. The developer hopes this will lead to more densely populated servers and help their pirate-themed MMO overall.
Pirates of the Burning Sea just launched on January 22nd of this year, and obviously isn’t meeting Flying Lab’s subscription goals. While shutting down more than half of an MMO’s servers and scattering established communities so early in a game’s life is never a good thing, the remaining servers should provide a more entertaining experience for the players who do stick around.
My advice to Flying Lab: Offer a free trial so I can finally add Pirates of the Burning Sea’s ding sound effect to The Sound of Progress old and new players alike can experience the improvements three months of post-release content and more condensed server populations bring.

Comment by wedge55 — April 15 [2008] @ 9:18 AM
Hahahah oh shit thats what my name was I couldn’t remember what it was.
Comment by Leadpipe — April 15 [2008] @ 9:19 AM
I don’t remember what your last name was. Actually, I think it was just Myhumps again. In any case, it wasn’t as awesome as “Girth Dumptruck.”
Comment by wedge55 — April 15 [2008] @ 9:38 AM

Comment by Leadpipe — April 15 [2008] @ 9:43 AM

I found my DVDs and am installing right now.
You’re installing the trial, which is certainly a step in the right direction, but you’re probably just going to make a new dude on a trial account, take a screenshot of yourself with a fishing rod, and then trick me out of $15.

Jeremy Hahn has sided with Mike Brust, saying, “I could see him paying ten bucks to do that.”
Comment by wedge55 — April 15 [2008] @ 10:12 AM
Well I dont want to install 700 thousand patches and the trial is the game anyway. Im just gonna resub my account and use the trial client to play it. I don’t care if you play or not im still gonna play it on my own super casual faggot style.

Comment by wedge55 — April 15 [2008] @ 10:26 AM
Well, my game is certainly done installing. I’ll patch it up just in case.
Comment by wedge55 — April 15 [2008] @ 10:26 AM
I have class until 5 tonight and it wont be done before then so I wont be able to play until tonight. I’m probably going to just resub my humps and page a GM and make him change my name or threaten to cry baby quit the game again over it. Maybe the 14.95 will persuade him.
