My favorite part of WoW was the instances, and just how they did them there. I was wondering if any other decent MMO out there has dungeons like WoW does. If you know of any, please post them in this thread.. thankye.

    As far as I know, EverQuest 2, Dark Age of Camelot (some of them) and Guild Wars.

    Star Wars Galaxies e.g. the Corvette Boarding action (think of the beginning of Episode IV) or the Ryatt Traill or the Mydrill Caves (both on the Wookiee planet  Kashyyyk ).

    Have fun

    PS: Guild Wars is basically ONLY instanced. The only place were players meet outside grouping is in the towns for trade and group forming.

    Well SWG's are open raids :P So they don't count!

     

    No mmorpg has instances to how epic WOW's are :)

    Its amazing how people think WoW's stuff is the best merely because its the latest and popular.

    /sigh.

    WoW sucks compared to CoH, go in a building full of hundreds of villains, and "arrest" em all together ... lot of damn fun :)

    Hmmm. FFXI has instanced dungeons in the Dynamis fights. It also has instanced
    boss fights (the Burning Circles).

    Actually SWG has "closed" raids to.  Namely the Corellian Corvette and the Avatar Station.  The other raids are either fully open (i.e. geo labs, death watch bunker, the warren, etc), while the remaining are somewhere inbetween (located within instances, i.e. like city zones in Guild Wars)

    I totally agree with WoW's instances being epic, more so than most.  At least from the ones I've played.  The only one I would say has it beat is CoH, with its Task Forces and Trials.

    On topic, wouldn't an easier question be which mmorpgs don't have instances.  Thought it was pretty much standard these days.
