Banning World Visit to Firmament not enough

[Reiko_Zarashi]

At least on my world, Exodus, this has not solved the problem of the zone getting capped for Concerted Works.

The issue now is afkers in the zone but also simply that at least my server, has too many people trying to participate for a single instance. Auto-kick of AFKers needs to be reinstated and I think multiple instances should be considered as well

Just hoping a dev sees this and notes that the problem is very much not fixed

I'd like to echo this as well.
I have not gotten the chance to participate in CW so I look forward to catch it now that Wanderers are restricted.
Last night I exit the Firmament around 1 hour before FATE started to run some Golden Saucer stuff. Shouldn't be a problem I thought. I was wrong.
Came back 20 minutes later and the Firmament is locked for being full of players.

The area need an instance although I'm not sure if it's possible to have CW happening in all the instance at once or even have the progression bar shared between them?
I feel bad if I need to stay inside the Firmament an hour in advance doing nothing (done crafting, but don't want to go outside gather mats to craft more). But it seems there's no other choice.

EDIT: Woops. I guess I just missed the last chance to get a taste of easy 500 scrip. T_T ...until the next phase.

Also you should only be able to enter the Firmament if you are a DoH or DoL class.

They really should have never turned off the afk kick. I stood by while friends tried to get in an hour before CW was to launch and they couldn't join. I saw tons of afk players that were still afk when the timer was done. The NA servers are just too congested to not still have the afk kick.

I disagree with this, but I do think that the IR area should have a timer that expells you for being afk, like all instanced content.

AFK timers can be worked around and a lot know how to do it. And I've said it in another thread, only 4% on average would be able to participate based on the number of active players in that world. So of course you're gonna get locked out, since everyone will AFK as a fail-safe measure now that they only have one chance at it.
