I know its group content only but any chance we could solo it or some of it? even a quest or two?

    It's an adventure zone and designed for larger groups. That doesn't preclude other things that can be done without such groups; not everything is designed for every style.

    Raid instances in other MMOs are not "play your way"

    The entire game shoves solo questing down everyone's throat...

    Maybe ZOS should remove all the group dungeons to make you happy? So that you can play your way?

    No. No. No. No. No. No. No.

    And no.

    If you don't want to do group content (in an MMO, no less), you've got plenty of options. Some things need to be for groups only.

    play your way doesn't mean that there wont be any group content... seriously folks you obviously have a brain in order to type please use it.

    like 85+% of the game is soloable it NEEDS more group content.

    Agreed, this is a MMO - are you seriously saying all content should be soloable? Why are you even here? This game desperately needs more group content and should be the main priority going forward as well as PvP refinements

    But why have a whole new area group only? I want to go in and gather some mats and get some new weapons and maybe kill some bad guys :D

    you can still solo certain things if you come prepared or if you are some sort of hybrid healer, although odds are you'll have to be a bit higher level than the instance/dungeon you are walking into.

    The soloist (aka casuals and/or non social) want to take over ESO as they have every other game, and turn it into an SMMO (Solo Massive Multiplayer Online) game. Classic.

    That's me, a hybrid healer, this way I can avoid group content and do solo public dungeons :D I feel like we will be able to do something, but not enough in this zone :(

    To each their own :) - I don't like soloing either, and quite frankly there is stuff they WON'T be able to do on their own, a good chunk of content. But it is possible to do a large portion by yourself, you're just not going to do it as fast as you could do it with a group. I prefer groups myself, but everyone is entitled to their own opinion and can play the game as they see fit :)

    Everyone that wants to play solo all the time is absolutely spoiled.. Before WOW was out I played MMO's Yes there were some out and they were hard. You needed a group to kill the smallest group of mobs! When it came to higher level zones.. if you went solo you were dead no questions asked.. even if you managed to kill a few of them there was a good chance you would end up dead sooner or later. Grouping was essential and this game is kinda getting back to that a little bit even though they are making it easy enough that you can solo if you want to for most of the game. In all honesty I think they need to get back to encouraging people to group up more its what made being in a guild awesome and made is so you wanted to stay in the guild and help it grow instead of just being there and being dead weight. Soloing is fun sometimes but I enjoy playing with my friends too. I am all for a group area to do and would love some more four man areas that I could adventure with my friends in!!!

    Since you don't need to be in a group to zone in, you'll have plenty of chances to go in and explore (dangerously) and maybe pick up some skyshards on the way. Especially if you hide behind other groups going out and clearing stuff for you :P

    Wait a minute, didn't you already make this thread a week or two ago?

    Theirs no trolling, as a single player I am greatly concerned the direction the game is going in. I mean you people have you're silly dungeons, what more do you need. Even those should be public.

    I do group up for some things, like dungeons and anchors and random exploration but I much prefer to go it alone.

    I did but it became full of trolls. So I decided to remake and will continue to do so :D

    The implication of multiplayer is that you'll be playing with other people. Not playing by yourself while other people sort of hang around in the area.

    You have 5 single-player games to choose from. This is not one of them.

    I am still playing with other people in instance dungeons. I dont think you understand MMOS and thats ok, their not for every one :D MMO's dont exactly mean group up or get out, being in a gym, for example, with 50 other people is the same as running a dungeon with 50 other people - your not in a group.

    No. There haven't been conflicting reports. The developers have said it will be accessible from VR1 on.
