Also maybe jobs where player pushed but I dont think anyone can argue it wasn't a good idea.

You are right, they didn't have a choice.. but what would happen.. if the 1st players poll went against Instances? How would SE handle it differently with this Crappy server structure Tanaka made?

we would probably be stuck with a bunch of crappy roaming NM's I doubt the primal battles could be the way they are in an open area since they require a small area to be effective, just think if everyone was able to out run hellfire, momento, etc.

I don't know, was this something told to us by SE, or something the players on the forums made up. I think the latter

That's why it was best this way with the current setup we have, to have Instances.. but with 2.0 they have alot more to work with... at least with Instances it makes Version 1.0 at least better then if it was open world.. bad stuff could have been awaiting on the other side...

I can't wait for E3! :D

most definitely something players assumed, I mean it doesn't sound anything like instanced content. If its available for multiple groups per instance then ill be pretty happy, its gonna be fun either way but I think it would be better if more then one group could get in.
