[h=3]NO MORE FEES[/h]TERA will be free.
No level, time, or content restrictions.
Our philosophy is to add to what we already offer instead of restricting existing content. We've added an in-game shop where players can choose to buy costumes, mounts, and consumables, but the core of the game will be 100% free.
Check out our FAQ for more details.

faq is here: Official En Masse Entertainment Support Site

anyone keen to check this out or any ex-players can share a bit about what the game is like?
 
I still have the beta installed on my PC... I might pick this up it was actually quite entertaining.

Thanks for sharing.
 
This is the first I've heard of Tera; is it fantasy?

I looked at LoL, but I'm not into comic-book stuff. I looked at GW2, but it seemed to have even more technology thrown into fantasyland than WoW. (I don't like the rockets/guns/etc in WoW, reminds me of the kids in my AD&D days who always wanted to travel to the future and bring back tanks/machine guns to kill dragons with . . . b/c the future will always have guns!, no matter what universe...)
 
I played the beta, the combat was really good and the engine was extremely smooth. My biggest problem with the game was its intense grind. I might still have unpublished footage somewhere...
 
Not Mac compatible... I guess I'll always have gulch and basin...
 
Well... fck that I finally got Tera working on my pc and bought and now that? FU ._. Whatever. :D Let's all enjoy a new awesome game. =D
 
at what level start the battlegrounds? do you gain xp in bgs?

i played 2 days in the beta and 2 weeks at release,
it wasn't worth to pay a sub, but i'll surely play it again once it becomes free.

/vg/ was already joking about the switch to f2p 1 month after its release i'm surprised it took so long ;)

the game is great minus the endless grinding (kill 10x of that mob, that's it).
fights against elites are amazing, they are really huge, and you can solo them if you're patient once you know how they work.

the combat system is amazing, you don't really have to aim, except for some skills,
world pvp sucks, you just tag yourself pvp & gank a player, that's how it was at release.
 
If my memory serves me right, Tera is an awful Korean grindfest MMORPG with fast paced combat and animations, am I right? :confused:
If that's it then no wonder it goes F2P :p

Lineage 2 = L2 and in the video it said that the people who designed Tera had a part with the l2,l3 team before they created Tera and that the game is similar,

it's an amazing game that would have been bigger than wow a few years ago if it weren't for the horrible level grind on its retail servers, which made the game unbearable.

the pvp is world based so you can essentially go and gank people while they're questing or have massive clan sieges in order to take over an enemy clans castle.



in L2 there weren't instanced battlegrounds just world pvp and arena tournaments to see who was the best at pvp by fighting multiple battles without consumables and various restrictions. it's far better than WoW in my opinion however the private server i used to play on got shut down which is why i'm still playing WoW.

I like the room they fight in at 1:46 , enviroments seem quite pretty , though pvp looks a bit sluggish , have not played it yet, how do controls handle with spell variety ?

some skills like heals can be used toward your target

but most of your attacks are effective in a zone, so when launching a skill you just aim where you want to hit,
some attacks will be effective in front of you, other in a cone in front of you, some all around you, some are channeled on a area, etc

i played a warrior up to lvl 35, battle agains elites are really epic, you avoid their attacks, predict their next move according to their gesture, some are really violent & can oneshot especially when enraged.
