    SE is merging how many server again?
    This has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with whether or not instancing is possible.

    (And when those servers are shut down, the equipment will either be sold or used for other purposes, not to increase the capacity of the existing servers)

    Nothing say they can't create instanced dynamis. Is not like they have to modify the game that much.
    Did you not read the almost-essay like explanation I gave you? They CAN'T (realistically) create instanced dynamis without MAJOR, TECHNICAL changes to the game and the areas themselves. What they are doing instead is much simpler (Keep in mind they do not have the same number of people working on the game as 9 years ago), requiring only changes to scripts and flags/numbers pertaning to monsters and NPCs and such. To instance dynamis they might possibly even need to go get people who are now busy on other porjects or maybe even moved to a different company to make the code changes. To ask some newer guy on the project would cost them a lot more time and money and you have to realize that with the age of the game and the size of the playerbase, they need to keep the changes economically sound.

    Look, I might not work for SE, but I know more about the inner workings of the game than you do. I'm not just some random guy who has no clue what he's talking about. If you really want to learn more about how things work, I'd be happy to indulge you, but we would have to talk about it somewhere else (e.g. on a fan site forum).

    PLEASE read this and my last post fully and carefully. I have every intention of being helpful but I can only do so much if you can't get the thrust of what I'm saying.

    I agree with that, but they never said you can enter with more then 18 player, could be instanced to 1 alliance max. again is pure speculation, think about it if is instanced and you only need KI then it have to be 18 player max.
    It is not instanced. Again, please, set aside your speculation and get informed on the subject. It is going to be an open area, more like abyssea than anything else. This is pretty well established from the information we have been given. Yes, you can only have 18 people in an alliance, but they are not in an instance obviously the adjustments to monster placement will take that into account, and if you need to bring more people, you can just shuffle them between the groups as needed for the right person to get the stuff. Give SE a little credit here. You don't even need 18 people in the current dynamis system for anything other than dynamis lord or maybe weapon fragments.
