If you missed it, the current producer's letter has this quote in it:
"Later this year, 247 access will be retroactively added to any pledge containing Alpha access."

I am sure someone could make this game on roblox in no time at all. SARCASM! PANTHEON had more game play and videos to offer in 2016 and 2017 then anything in last few years. where is all that game play for the alpha backers? I've been waiting to test for 8 years now. What has been going on this entire time to just show artwork, class rework, pipeline, and gray box for the last few years? Because of all these changes I now know how my wife feels... "disappointed"
Tech demo videos != video of game play

It's embarrassing to have to go that far, just to try to tell me I'm wrong.
Your response rests entirely on the ASSumption that 247 isn't Pantheon. I know that's a popular claim. Sadly, it is wrong. Thousands of alpha testers will see that when they try out 247.

"Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen places a heavy emphasis on the social aspects of MMORPGs, such as grouping up with other players to overcome challenging encounters, joining guilds, and earning a reputation in the community. Pantheon primarily has a PvE-centric design, although the developers have committed to having at least one PvP server at launch. When creating a character, players choose from nine races and twelve classes. Most races only have access to certain classes. The twelve classes are divided into four class archetypes: Tank, Damage, Healer, and Support (Crowd Control). Each archetype is designed to excel at a specific role in a group setting. While PvE encounters in the game are designed to provide a challenge for a group of players, there are encounters that can be completed by a solo player. Some of the character classes are better suited for this than others, and some encounters may be more difficult and require more creative tactics when soloing, as opposed to grouping. There are also some raid encounters, each of which is designed for either 12, 24, or 40 players."
You have two months for all of this to be true, or else 247 is not Pantheon. And if it isn't, I will revisit this topic.

How many people can queue up together to play together in 247? Not play the same game at the same time, but actually in a world together where they can interact together?

More than any raid or group quest than I've ever been part of, in AC, WoW or Vanguard.

So you are telling me, that in "247", that you can run around with 70+ other players at the same time in the same instance and interact with each other?

Yes. If you can get 70 people to queue up at the same time, they will all wind up in the same instance.
We were told that the instances are arbitrarily limited to no more than 100 people at present for the sake of the testing, not because that's all it could hold.
