As i understand, Exploration sends you to a huge map (skyrim style or separated in small maps?) and then you do what in there? kill things like in missions, for what? to collect what? is it solo or you can find people there like not instanced areas in MMOs?
How exactly exploration works?
-
Explore mode drops you of in the same map as you travel when doing story missions, the area is a limited instance that you and a small number of players share (just like a story mission), however unlike a story mission, which locks you into one "quest" at the start in explore you are free to roam the map. During your exploration you can find small beacons all over the place which gives you a minor quest of a random nature.
