well they did say that there will be 80 different battlezones and that they will hold up to 200 players.

They also said that you can get to those zones by getting onto a train and riding it there. They have the whole seamless loading thing so when you ride the train you can move around and talk to people but it's like you're loading the game at the same time.

So like someone said above, it'll be instanced battles, but you travel to them, so it won't really feel instanced like you experience in WoW where you jump into a portal and watch a loading screen. Rather, you get on a train and travel there.
