My crew and I ran into a weird issue last night while attempting to complete “Shores of Gold”. It ended up that two different crews were working on the “Shores of Gold” at the same time, working separately in harmony. However, when our crew made it down through the caves and tunnels to fight the final boss, we ran into a closed, sealed door. We heard the other crew fighting the boss through the door and could even talk to them via Text Chat. But there our crew sat, waiting about 30 minutes for the other crew to finish. After they vacated the final chamber, we were allowed in and faced the final boss.
Overall, it was a minor issue, but it took away from the immersive experience. It felt less like we were crawling through caves and tunnels to finally face the final boss, and more like a Disney or Universal ride, where we were waiting in line while the first group finished the ride. It was just an odd experience to have. I’m sure Rare considered the probability of this event occurring being very low. But of course it happened to us!
Maybe consider creating a separate instance for the final boss chamber?
