 Yeah man.  Thats one of the benefits of the instancing system.  There are only 2 servers planned for launch:  one fore all North America, and one for Europe.

Indeed. Lots of people seem to have this big gripe against instances and yet one of the big killers for big open pvp battles with hundreds of players on screen at once is the big old nasty lag monster. I expect Global Agenda will run as smooth as butter.

Everyone will be in the same "World", but on different servers.  They'll be linked instances, with one affecting the other.

 Just to be clear, when you log in you won't select a server like on wow or whatever.  You are either NA or EU.  Everyone in NA can search, whisper, group etc.

 i was going to start a thread but i think my question relates to this.

I for one am for the instancing, i played aion the game was terrible whenever there was more then like 30 people on a screen. I was actually curious how global agenda is going to focus on pvp, will it be like classic fps shooter pvp? 8v8 scenarios and what not? i think that would be really cool.

I believe that each hex will hold up to 10 vs 10 but there can be alliance battles across multiple hex's for 60 vs 60.

close, but not quite.  pve (atm) is 4man teams.  matchmade pvp is 10man teams.  ava will be 6 grids up 8-12 man teams.
