EVE online does this in Jita.

and everyone always praises Eve's mega awesome military grade super great awesome servers.

Food for thought, since many of you like to compare server structures with Eve and say they have the best in the business. Sometimes stuff like this is the method of choice, rather than having NPCs not appear on screen.

I'm thinking of EVE Online and the Jita cluster lock...

crap someone beat me to it

I don't get why they don't just make instanced channels for the game. Its so simple.

I HATE this idea. I pla yon a server with my friends, to play with them. Not on some stupid channel system

Okay right now your friends are in the area fighting Odin and you get an error trying to get into the zone.
Is that better? You still can't play with them when they are in a area that's full.

so what do you suggest instead of channels?

A limit to how many people are in the zone. Limitations are sometimes a necessity. We already have so much bad features from other MMOs with FATEs, DF, etc... pleeeeease don't bring this instanced zone crap to FF.

They decided to make the game possible for PS3 players. This severely limits rendering, and now they need to limit the amount of people in zones, whatever, I'll deal with it.

But the minute there is instanced zones in this game, I, for one, am OUT. No need to have more community segregation than there already is.

lol you didn't answer my question.
when there are people in a full zone and others can't enter - that's segregation.

the difference between this current "solution" and the channel solution is:
with the channels i can actually enter the area and play the content i'm paying for.

ok first of all this sucks for people questing/lvling what they should do is do what GW2 does have overflow servers and for the person who said it would suck to have beh/odin spawning on other servers just make it so if you get moved to the overflow theres no world boss fates there.

now for my second gripe about this is it was hard enough to be online with they were going on now it's gonna be even harder to do it, need to be online for them (random) AND get there before server zone is full will make it impossible for alot of people to even do it
