4th Character slot

Alright, now; i've always wondered why we were given 3 character slots per account. Server limitations maybe? I dont know. What i do know is that we should be given an extra character slot. Simply because of the fact that there are four races in the game, and that way we would be able to make a single character of every race. Sounds fair to me. I can't stress this enough, it would only make sense giving us that missing character slot, because at this point it seems like it's simply missing, and should be there. 3 is a very arbitrary number seeing as there are 4 races. Not everyone can have multiple accounts, and plus i think this would be beneficial all around. Players also wouldn't be torn between which race to choose if the fourth slot existed.

Any plans to make this a reality? Because i dont see why not. It would only make sense. What do the rest of you make of this?

Curious as to what CCP has to say regarding a 4th character slot.

I can give you a hint:

Rhymes with "d'oh!"

You are about eight years late to this argument.

In the anwers every question thread this was asked and answered:

"What do you think its worth?"

If you answer is "Nothing, it should be free", well then you must not want it very much.

In the first three numbers, all of the others are synthesized. From the union of oneness and duality (which is its reflection), that is, from triad, proceed all of the other numbers, and from this primordial triangle all figures derive.

ok i will have ago.. CCP is a profit company... giving you more chars on one accounts means... less accounts...less accounts means....less money.....less money means... less profit....The End.

from a player point of view i see no reason why not other than have people not got enough characters. Why waste time on so many chars when u can only train one any way might as well train ur main for what ur alts training and use a jump clone :D

There's really no reason why we can't have four to be honest. But I'm beginning to think the developers don't bother with what is suggested and simply goes with their own ideas.
