Team members placed in separate instances?

Did anyone else experience being placed in separate instances from team mates during the beta borg event? Just curious if this is specific to the borg event or a common bug.

    I had the same problem during the entire beta. Whenever I joined a team before entering a mission, We got thrown into seperate instances most of the time. Strangely sometimes we did manage to get into the same instance but I guess that was luck? :D

    Is this a bug, or a feature?

    I wouldn't call it a feature ... I guess the arguement could be made though.

    i clcied on my map..went to " change instances" then saw a checkbox...when unchecked i can pick my own instance.

    so thats what I did to prevent the above..though it was far from the perfect solution. but on days where friends and I seemed not to be able to play together i would just call the number of an intance and we would join the same number. once we had done that it seemed to guess us in the same ones fromthere anyways...doesn't seem quite right to go through all that effort though

    I'm thinking it was due to the instance being full.

    I noticed on several occasions during beta, that my group would be seperated due to the instances being full, and we just had to find one that was empty enough for all of us to enter.

    Is this what happened to you? I don't know, I know there was a bug at one time where teammates were placed into different instances, so it could be that bug resurfaced, or it was just due to the instance being full.

    It happens all the time. There have several threads about this already but none of them have received any dev response. The bottom line is if you are in a group and it cant put you all in the same instance it should spawn a new one for you but it does not most often.
