EverQuest II Beta Sign-ups [May 03, 2004, 2:00 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
As promised (story), sign-ups to beta test
EverQuest II are now
being accepted (thanks Fazumar Faelcree), though they are currently only seeking
North American testers for the MMORPG sequel ("European customers who wish to
participate in a localized beta program may begin the beta application process
on June 1, 2004."). There is still no indication of how many testers are being accepted, nor is there an explanation of how testers
will be chosen.
but why should people care if its instanced or not?
In most of the newwer mmogs it seems that you just get a small group and go level grind, ignoring all other people, except when in a city.
From what I understand, with the traditional MMO's that have instanced zones, those instanced zones account for only 5% to 10% of the 'game world' whereas GW will be the opposite with 5% to 10% of the game world being a common place and the rest of the game Diablo style with 8 players. So with your EQ's and the like most of the game is still all common areas with certain quests and dungeons that are instanced. Sounds to me like GW is almost all instanced with the oppurtunity to grab 8 friends and go to the arena and fight other 8 person guilds.
