Tera !

Not a bad game. Been playing the North American client (obviously via vpn), though I'd rather pass this up for GW2 when it lands. Surely is "weird" to actually click and hit over select and pressing 1234 for abilities. To note the EU client doesn't require vpn/proxy. Finally reading quests feels so old school after TOR....
 
This is the weirdest thing I have seen ever in an MMO... apparently everyone has to kill the monster 1 at a time. So, people had to wait for it to spawn lol.. and people behaving themselves in an online game!

lol ... lemme guess. Velkas? :D

I'm inclined to agree with Proph though - I find the control and battle system decidedly on the odd side.

I created a Mystic this weekend - they seem incredibly overpowered, but maybe it's just in the beginning - I got as far as level 16. I'll probably create a priest or a sorc next. Fond of casters as always :)
 
standing in line?! in a online game!?

That is sad in so many ways, sad for the people waiting and also for the dev not having better spawn timers.

Man i would try to ninja that thing the moment it spawned!
 
No ... the respawn is actually pretty quick - I timed it at about 20 - 30 seconds after the previous kill. That picture was probably taken on the day the server opened, so you have to understand how many people you had going after the same named mob. That pic actually gives me some hope for the online community.

That comment removed all hope again.
 
Lol yeah I just find this the weirdest design concept...its kind of fail... thats where instances does have their positives lol. Why have a thing only 1 person can kill ? Defeats the whole MMO concept completely.

@shadowfox -- I think they are just behaving for the Beta, once the game is up people going to ruin it for sure!
 
That is quite ass backwards, but I'd still love to give this a try since the combat looks fantastic.

I'm probably going to get some hate for saying this, but of the MMOs I've played I still felt Aion's combat was the best and most responsive system I've come across. The combat in Aion, once you've opened up most of the skills and had access to all the chains, just flowed quite naturally - so you went from one skill to the next without really pausing.

I'll have a better idea once I've played more of the classes - so I'm hoping the CB allows us to make at least 2 chars so I can create a melee and a caster class together and do side-by-side comparisons. But not being able to move when casting the most basic spell I had was a bit of a killer for me.

In addition, the combat is a aim and click system, so if you're casting a spell and not aiming right you're going to miss. Which in a way is pretty awesome because it becomes more about skill than chance. But it also means not being able to select something because clicking your mouse-button means attacking - you have skills bound to your left and right buttons on your mouse.

Being able to create your own chains though? That's a winner.

Still not sold on buying it though. I doubt I will be, although I intend to get a fair bit of play-time in over the course of the beta program.
 
Cool some okes said EU version had HD textures in the sneak peak, this patch replaces the old textures with the new ones because the USA client did not have hd textures.
 
It's another stress test basically - servers are only going to be up for 2 hours.

So while they are giving you 8 char slots to try race/class combos I doubt you'll have time to experience any of it. I'll start the patch downloading so long - and I'll throttle it as much as I can with their useless damn launcher - so I probably won't be on tomorrow. Friday probably :)
 
MMO Tera is a bit less massive after the publisher have stated they’ll be blocking IPs from Asia, Africa, Russia and The Middle East from connecting to the North America servers.
