Open up the world, please! Part I

With the way how zones are set up to it's own thing I doubt they'd do this. Some zones already get congested and start lagging if they were to make it open world they'd have to pretty much redo the game which is something I don't see happening.

What I would like to be seen are the zones being expanded on. For example the areas between the zones (ie the zones between east shroud and south shroud http://i.imgur.com/jbn1iKQ.jpg the white zone). If they were to redo everything to be able to make it an open world then we'd probably lose out on an expansion.

For them to change work on the seamless world would take time and resources that barely have at this time. Yoshi and Dev team decided back when the development of this game they wouldn't do the seamless world for the sake of development and also bring this game to PS3 which was also limited and could barely handle the game. But with that System dead we still have the PS4 and PC. Also, Limitation of this current engine may not allow it. OP you make it seem like its easy to do this. But it isn't it requires time and money for a team of coders, Designer, QA Testers, and other people make sure that maps and areas function correctly SE Mangement isn't going focus money on that. I rather see more focus on new content and fixing the servers issues then reconnecting world.

Load screens are probably the one thing I like the least about the game. Probably why I never do POTD because you're queuing up for 15 load screens.
