5 slots for anyone who orders it
Ah, I thought it was 3 extra slots for speeders for some reason. So does that increase our limit to 25?
yep it was vehicle slots /slap self

This actually sucks if they don't give creature handlers more slots. They are actually creating a NEW planet that has tamable critters but not give us more slots? That actuallylowers the overall amount of critters that will get tamed now, since its gonna force us to pick and choose even more so then before what we want to tame.
I sure hope they up the slots for pets. I don't see how it can be that hard to do since they have done it for ships and vehicles already.

So I was right. /slap StarPilot3000 
I renew my case about needing more pet slots then.
Ok then, now thats all sorted. hehe
/agree
Extra slots for CH please, even if its just 3. 3 is better than none

Considering they have and are adding slots for different expansions in the datapad for players, I would think it would be fairly easy to just open the datapad up for all things inside to count towards a cap. If I remember they once did back in 2003.
OK you have all expansions, so anextra cpl mount slots, vehicle slots, droid slots, and pet slots totalling "Picks number from thin air" 32 slots. Give players the option of what to fill those slots with.
I don't need 4 vehicles and 6 droids.I could use6 more pets though especially since we need to keep creatures we don't even want untill we grind up the skills. Fair deal if you ask me.

I don't use droids.
Actually more slots would be bad for ch. Right now a player can get two ability pets from us and that limits them to 10 total abilities to call upon of the 72 we have thats good. Add in more slots say two and now the player has the ability to have 20. If nonchs can pull out more pet abilities without us on hand that only hurts us not helps us.
A master CH has room for 22 pets. Thats ample room you can have two pets from every planet. The new mounts do not take up slots. They are mostly for show.
Here is some serious stuff to lay down on you atleast from my experience. A player can have a preorder pet in their datapad trade me a non preorder pet and be able to take that pet back. That pet is not being counted in the slots.
Next on the list hold your breath special reward pets are garbage. Thats right I will say it again garbage. They only seem to take up 3 yeah thats right three ability slots. A non special reward pet can take 4 a non special reward pet with an inate to start gets 5.
I have started to inform players of the fact that tradeing their special reward pets is a bad move. The wrong move. Once traded it loses its special reward no slot status. That means the true owner will have to actually delete what in all likelihood is a better pet. The special pet is not the one to have specials on the one I will provide is since in all likelihood it will have a inate and so they can get 5 special abilties as compared to 3.
This is not pokemon we do not got to catch them all. Infact the system as is is more immersive. You got to pick a managerie that is tailored to you. This helps in turn to differentiate chs. Some chs are pack masters others prefer being tank heavy others prefer state heavy. He likes bugs you like reptiles. In the endlimited space promotes individuality. Whereas more slots means everyone has the exact same stuff.
In the end even if we had 50 slots someone would say we need more. We can hold 22 animals on us think about that 22. With each expansion we get a new freebie pet that dosent eat a slot this pet is merely for show unless as a ch you like to go around offing things with level 10 pets. These special pets have no real value other then they look cool. So buck it up and make the hard choices do you really need a gleaming lantern bird or a giant peko peko, or is it more important to get pets that are combat effective. Like it matters though most chs focus on useing a handful of pets and not the full datapad anyway.
