I couldn't agree more here.Been off the forum for a couple of days, but this is a good point. However, if they want to appease the hardcore crowd, they're going to have to use some resources on hardcore content. Whether it's in the form of 4 hour raids, a multitude of 24-hour spawn HNMs with 3 hour windows that take more than 10 minutes to kill, or some sort of Sky type 36 man content. A large amount of 30 minute instance level dungeons with hard modes just isn't going to cut it.
Whether or not you're interested in the content, it'll have to exist if SE wants to appeal to everyone. Personally I'm not interested in 30 minute dungeons with speed runs and hard modes. WoW gave me my fill of those and then some. But you won't catch me saying they shouldn't add them, because I understand they're something of a necessity for the casual crowd. Same thing goes for the hardcore content that'll never appeal to me. HNMs that spawn every 21-24 hours? You couldn't pay me to do that again. But that doesn't mean they shouldn't throw a few in there for the people that would like camping them.
Howdy!
While I already mentioned in a separate thread that we will be seeing alliance based content in the future, I also checked up on whether there would be longer dungeons. Yoshi-P told me that there are indeed plans for 2 hour long dungeonsHope you all are looking forward to them!

Yay! Now I'll be praying that they aren't 50 minute speed runs.
We definitely need 16 player content. Or content that scales with the number of people in your party. The game just isn't fun if there's only 14 people online in your linkshell and 8 of them already formed a party. Something needs doing to fix issues like that.

That was pretty much answered in the 8 man content thread, which Camate linked to. Camate also just referenced Alliance based content in the future, keep on keepin on, you're almost there.
Let me explain to you how a forum works.
First, you need a set of members.
These members then post topics of discussion.
Other members then respond to these topics posting their opinions.
These opinions usually come in the form of support or opposition towards the original topic.
These opinions also tend to include reasons why they support such topics.
Get it?
Okay, thanks, goodbye.

This is great, and personally I am fine with having instanced content being limited to 2 hours. However, I hope that stuff like Crystal Tower will not be a 2 hour instance, and instead will be broken up into floors at least so the whole thing takes more than is possible in a single sitting to progress through.Howdy!

A 2 hour crystal tower would be very disappointing, so would a crystal tower that only had 8 person group content and no alliance section.
maybe 2 hours per floorThis is great, and personally I am fine with having instanced content being limited to 2 hours.

He said in a post (right below one he comments on) that SE needs to fix the content to use more than 8, they already are and it was linked and directly mentioned in said post. I wasn't even rude about stuff like you were. kthxbai urself.Let me explain to you how a forum works.

I hope the drop rates are even worse I managed to get some gear from the new raids, I'm outraged.
Removed due to size restrictions and possible seizures risks.
