Nothing @ 60 is Actually FUN. Why?

Right now TERA is a game with alot of lost potential, it will take them at least 1 year to unleash this potential, but with other good games around it will be difficult to hold the players, excluding hardcores who just gulp the grind down like true mmo zombies.


TERA offers good graphics, nice combat, that's it the rest is an insult to my intelligence.

I think if leveling wasn't so damn fast, people wouldn't be complaining so much about lack of end-game content. I find it a little ridiculous that you can make 60 in little over 2 weeks just playing casually. I mean it doesn't have to been so insane that it takes like 2 years but hitting 60 just didn't feel rewarding to me

That's not the problem, if you level too fast, you play a second character to 60. I also have 2 60s right now and will maybe play a third one, if i have the motivation for TERA, because the endgame is actually so dull that i have zero motivation to participate in it. It's just dumb grind over and over without any sign of creativity, the [filtered] enchantmentsystem is one of the major culprits, it simply cost to many resources and time to get to +9 and for PvP purpose the system is even more [filtered], it's trimmed for usage in a PvE Environment, the enchantment system is imabalanced for PvP environments in terms of time and effort you have to make to stay on top. Wonder when Bluehole will get this.

I am pretty sure WoW eng-game consisted of endlessly raiding in order to acquire an impossible to get legendary piece of crap. Now that is fun, isn't it?

Oh boy another overreacting fanboy. I don't expect them to bend to my will. RNG is my ONLY problem with this game and if I were in such a low minority who found it bothersome, I wouldn't have posted anything about it. Besides, this is supposed to be an open forum. What's it with people and their knee-jerk reaction to reply "GO PLAY ANOTHER GAME DURRRP" every time someone has something to say about the game they don't wanna hear?

That being said, if they never do anything about it(which I expect they won't) then so be it. As long as the rest of the game isn't [filtered] up I'll be fine.


I agree 100 percent. Cry baby fanboiz all ways get upset when someone brings up the RNG system. I think Tera is 95% great. The RNG stuff is lame but I got enough free time to deal with it. I'm retired military, I got all the time in the world to farm baby farm.

But when my friends stop logging in, when servers start getting merged, and 80% of the complaints are about some RNG aspect of Tera. It makes me want to say something.

I'd prefer to not have +12 gear in a ghost town.

Wrong.

I enjoy the game for what it is. I fully realize its flaws, but I'm not about to whine like it's the end of the world and TERA is going under because of those flaws. I trust EME, and I'm here for the long haul because the base for what I feel is one of the best MMORPG's to release in the last 5 years is there.

I leveled as fast as I could to get to 60 in order to PvP, then I found out that it would take massive grinding to even get gear, in a game that should be based on skill, to even be viable to compete. The gear grinding at end game breaks the game for me (at least for pvp, for pve I couldn't care less as it gives you something to look forward to when you are running the dungeons over and over because you are bored lol, in pvp it just kind of gimps you... no wait it turns you into a punching bag, and not even a very good one lol).

In my opinion they should have released our version with a better PvP system already attached to it, customized and fine tuned for competitiveness. They should have castles and other structures strung out across the world of TERA for guilds to capture and fight over and a formal matchmaking system that puts players on equal footing gear wise (to focus more on competitiveness of skill rather than competing for who has the best gear; or at least have a switch in the matchmaking settings when you setup a match for "scaled" pvp or something...). If they would have launched with a few adjustments like these the game would have been so awesome.

Problem is: EME probably has almost no control over new/future content development (they have very limited control, which allows them to change whats already there a bit here and there as we have already seen; which is how it is with most games that get localized sadly enough) and they get stuck as the middleman between us and the devs (and in games like these that are localized the devs don't usually give a [filtered] about the rest of the world...).

I mean the potential is there if they want to make use of it, but then again that's true for many games I know; they just choose not to make it into something great... or maybe its dem garden gnomes again =/

To be fair, BT hard mode is pretty damn fun.

This is refreshing! It's really nice to see someone just come out and admit that the only reason they play is to lord their l33t gear over other players. Why bother playing a game for your own enjoyment when you can use it to enhance your superiority complex.

All those single player and cooperative games are for losers with small wangs.

C'mon dude. Did you just get the internet? Ego tripping is the life-blood of MMORPGs. My pixels are better than yours, scrub.
