Pirates of the Burning Sea update: Server FAQ and updates
Here’s a quick update from the Pirates of the Burning Seas developers. They’ve set up a step-by-step FAQ at the main site discussing how they calculate for how many server the game needs. They’ve also listed the updated server names, which you can view in the full article.
You can’t call it an MMORPG if you don’t have ample player populations that are truly, well, massive.
In the case of Flying Lab Software‘s Pirates of the Burning Seas, handling their populations properly entails creating a healthy balance of servers for a set number of gamer residents.
Wondering how they do the number crunching? Gray Noten over at the PotBS site has set up a FAQ that explains the developer’s steps to calculating how many servers are needed given a sample population. The guide requires a hefty bit of number crunching, so you’ll want to visit the official site for the full instructions.
On a related note, Noten also released the MMORPG’s updated server list for both the U.S. and the E.U.:
- US
- Blackbeard
- Rackham
- Morgan
- Kidd
- Antigua
- Guadeloupe
- Bonny
