World of Warcraft uses Phasing to change the game world. Sometimes this is used to remove game elements, e.g. NPCs that give quests that a player has already completed, and sometimes to update the game world according to where a player is in a quest (an example of this is how Acherus: The Ebon Hold changes depending on where in the death knight quest series a player is)[1].
The design solution in America's Army that one always sees one's own team as being US soldiers and the other team as being enemies is an example of Phasing on a team level.
