Siege of Orison

So, first things first, I really enjoyed the Siege of Orison mission. The set pieces, the missions themselves, and the loot is very nice.

HOWEVER

I have two requests that I hope CIG sees.

1. There HAS to be a way to leave the instance at the end of each of the 3 platforms. Having to go all the way through the instance and not being able to come back is horrible when you have, y'know, a life to live outside of the game. It took my friends and I almost 4 hours just to get to the final fight, and we were all exhausted from the meat-grinder of NPCs to shoot.

We would very much have enjoyed being able to do Platform 1, then come back another day to do Platform 2 and Platform 3.

2. It would be neat if every zone had a loot dump you could drop stuff into and go back to claim it in Orison after the mission is complete. Would really make looting a lot more rewarding.

Extra note: Why does it feel like none of these guys have any ammo for the gun they're carrying? Also, for a 4-person mission, having to go through several thousand rounds of ammo seems a tad overkill.

Siege is so close to being good, it just needs some things to make it easier for the people who can't play for super extended periods of time.
