Instanced Raids Unveiled!

[Malakhim]

I don't know if this has been asked in this thread or anywhere else, and the devs seem to be paying attention to this thread so I'll ask here:

So we all know that the new focus is going to be to a certain extent on soloing, 4-man and 8-man groups. Will there be any possibilities in the future to form sort of an alliance of 2 groups of 8 for certain types of higher order content, or is that just a balancing nightmare/bad idea?

Personally I'm cool with it just being up to 8-man at max. I'll probably be sticking with 4-man style play personally, since to me that's what FF has always been about, but I understand that's just my own style. I'm wondering about the pros/cons of introducing that FFXI-style alliance play into FFXIV.

Yeah there was a thread started regarding this issue.. and of course the Comreps and Devs never replied
