No multiple zone should be able on pvp servers

So the solution would be for everyone to be in one?  The lag near the dock would make for perpetual lag-death near there.  It'd be like Q-Harbor on steroids.  And what about the raids?  It's oh-so-much-fun to try to run through with a group and get steamrolled by two x's 2 raids at the same time, and that goes for both sides.  I don't know about the other servers, but all of Nagafen's versions of Kylong were fairly full last night as far as I saw and heard.

There were 5 KP-instances on Nagafen yesterday. And all of them were laggy, too. That's why they have to spread people around a little....  otherwise, the lag would be unimaginable.

I'm glad there were lots of instances of Kylong, or I'd never have managed to do the quests on the utterly insane gank fest docks. I want to PvP but not fight huge bloody raids of people all day long crashing because of the amount of people like I was all the time when I had a go on the PvM server beta.

<p>um, i comlpained about multiple instances the day pvp went live.</p><p>It sure does limit zone control capabilities.   Kinda hard to <u>own</u> Blackburrow, when Blackburrow has 5 instances.   I learned a lot since then.   This game is not about "winning the war."   I was naive to think that players would demand such a game.  We sheep will play whatever they give us, even if it is just a pointless game of tag with no winners, no losers, and no real reason to try to win the war.</p><p>Have fun questing, carebears</p>

And how pathetic is the multiple-instance concept, at least for pvp. Luckly, we have not seen multiple instances in a long, long time - and I suspect that, as soon as the novelty wears off, we won't in TD either. But aye, something terribly wrong in the basic idea of fragmentic population in an MMORPG - I mean, if I wanted to play with 10 people at the time, I would be playing Neverwinter Nights, or D&D with my buddies in my basement. Somehow ironic, I remember when EQ came out, I thought that servers were a bad, but necessary evil (as in, why the heck are we not all playing together). But with EQ2, zone instancing has scored a whole new low.</p><p>But it is also true that, the way EQ2 has been designed, lag would be horrible. </p><p>Then again - it makes you wonder - why do other games make it possible. In WoW there were massive pvp battles (yes, I am talking about the lumber mill, in the early months).
