    German Com rep response to "reservation system for dungeons".

    Since there is a huge discussion flowing on how and when dungeons will be accessable and stuff, here is a small response from the german Com Rep that more or less caused more confusion than clarification. But I wanted to share this nontheless

    Original Text:

    Ich habe neue Infos, die ich euch zu Mittag als Nachtisch servieren möchte. Es tauchte die Frage auf, ob es eine Art Reservierungssystem für die Instanz-Dungeons geben wird. Nach einigen Diskussionen hat sich das Entwicklungsteam dagegen entschieden. Es wird also heißen "wer zuerst kommt..."
    Link: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/12003-dev1079-Raid-Dungeons-in-Form-von-Instanzen?p=219559&viewfull=1#post219559

    Translation:

    I've got new information that I want to serve as a desert for your lunch. The question came up, if there is gonna be some kind of "reservation system" for the instanced dungeons. After several discussions the Dev Team decided against one. So it will be "First come..."
    I guess everybody can see how this post caused more confusion, since it implies the "dynamis kind of instance" again...

    I hate how we can't get simple answers for simple questions-_-

    I don't see how that was confusing. Can someone explain that?

    Seems pretty clear to me that you can't reserve spots in dungeons and the parties that get there first go in first...

    Yeah and thats the whole deal...if the first who comes can enter, what's with the ones that came after? Is it gonna be "blocked" or not...thats the whole concern, cause people still don't know if its gonna be dynamis like, or not.

    What if we let them implement the dungeons first, give them a chance and have some fun with them, and then let them hammer out the tweaks such as a queueing system?

    it will suck if was like dynamisis, there will be lines all frigin day like in ffxi for (i forgrt what it was for if anyone remembers?) but was in Ghelsba Outpost threw the bsnm entrance for a battle but we had lines of people for it and took weeks of lines to do it once. lol.

    really it will br impossible if was a 60min wait with first come first serve. there will be lines for days on end for only a small amount of runs. they must not be explaining it right. ...it shoudl be where we all can just enter our own at anytime but yeah, i see where the confusion is at now. lol need answers for this one, but i'm on the side that it's an error, its' ...it's... it's just impossible to expect 1 group or something to go in at a time.

    I still dont understand the need to wait at all, why cant we all go in at the same time, in our own instance?

    queuing up 5hours to play 1hour of content sounds like an awesome plan. NOT

    in ffxi there was a dynamisis instance where only 1 full group can go in at one time, all linkshells pretty much set different times from each other ...was very stupid way to do it. also a few other things were like that, like parts of passes to things and battles. it should be where anyone can do them at same time though, it created lines for these things for weeks ...and in reality when all was said and done the acual time getting like collesium passes lived out longer then the acual mini game.
