Cutscenes and timed instances

[Sol_Aureus]

Just use the guild wars method, where all players have to vote to skip or nobody gets to skip. (It showed a checkbox for each player in your party and if they all had it checked, the cutscene ended early).

And, while in the cutscene, the timer doesn't go down.

This would also be a great alternative. I just don't want to see the work that the devs put in to make these CSs go to waste because it's expected that you skip them to save time.

I too want to see the cut scene, but having players skip the event causes problems because then when I come out of the cut scene bad things are going down.

Yes please.

Thanks for the suggestions! I passed 'em along to Yoshi-P and he wanted me to tell you thanks as well. The team will be taking your comments into consideration moving forward.

Awesome, thanks Bay
