I'm happy about this change. I don't have anything against the additional rewards per se, but when you DON'T get those additional rewards because you want to run with a group of people you already know? That's more than a little lame.



Good show, EME. Thanks for listening to your community so closely.


reward for running with players you know should be fast and nice runs and good drops !!
reward for solo players should be they that they can find group fast enought !!

There shouldnt be reward for using something that makes you find group easyer or beeing lazy...!

Thank you very much Minea that sure is a very good news.

As for the people complaining about cross-server please think first before you say stupid things because WE ALL need this cross-server feature you will see that after some months playing this game everyone will be max level and you may not find people to play at lower level dungeons on your own server.

I was already having trouble to find people to do the dungeons on the Closed Beta because everyone was max level and when I decided to make another character I had trouble to find people to form a party to do the first dungeon and I was playing on the Valley of Titans the most populated server on the Closed Beta.

WE MUST HAVE CROSS-SERVER it will save us all from getting pissed off waiting forever to form a party after some months of server life.

If that's the case the game is doomed from the start. The people who you're supposed to be able to play lower level dungeons with are new players who join around the same time you do. If the servers aren't getting enough new blood to keep them alive, they're getting merged, and if that cant concentrate the new players enough, the game is going to die within those "some months of server life."

I don't believe that is necessarily the case, and if it becomes the case, they can implement the cross server when it does, not when it's going to hurt the formation of communities at the time when the games population should be at it's healthiest, launch.

I have to agree with it. Pretty good argument for keep it for low lvl instances.
But endgame? Most game time we will spend at endgame. On PvP servers?

Hmmm well this Post-Tera-Online is suffering hard from all the WoW only kids that EME caters up to.

"Dis how Wow PLAY! I waunt it on Tera too!"

Actually "tested" this out or was it just another "Oh this might be a bad idea let's remove it!" Move? Seems like a popular trend around here. Some WoW players QQ and things get removed via instantly. So many removals that has happen to this game in one sitting.

Another asian mmo pretending to be western. Great. Rating should be drop to 12+ like Europe.

Other than Gravity and some other companies it looks like typical NA companies will never get out of the WoW sensation. And Ragnarok Online had over 40 million people play that game and they didn't nerf it to death like Tera is being done here.

Well, better line up Tera Online with the thousand of other western mmo's cus the combat system is nothing short of new. Only saving grace is the graphics and the point-n-click players who never touched a console before. But who knows how long that'll last too (i'm looking at you GW2, RaiderZ etc)

THEY ARE COMPLAINING AND THEY HAVEN'T EVEN TESTED IT YET NOR HAVE THEM EVEN LOOKED INTO IT!

But the worst is that EME actually made a drastic Change based on them... >.>

Lmao This is like the Elin censoring, it's like if they were saying :

- Well Hey You Don't like our Ideas on which we worked so hard and spent so much time and effort on? It's fine, you don't like refined work we'll give you Crap, enjoy.

You can't really blame them... Well actually yes you can, EME listened to crap feedback from new comers and now the whole community deals with it.

You mean as crappy as your feedback?

I'm more than happy with this change GJ, there is a difference when EME listens to constructive feedback which has some good arguments to back it up, instead of just like yours which is pointless.
Many players could test it in other MMOs already and it was poor idea to the point where people chose not to group with friends because the reward was too good to miss. Fast and convenient queue is good reward even by itself.

This specific issue really isn't that much of big deal - a small buff, some minor rewards. Meh, whatever.

It's more the precedent it sets. It does nothing but encourage subjective misinformed complaining and walls of text displaying nothing but stupidity from people that haven't even played the game yet, or even have an understanding of the issue they are crying about. The mindset is now, well if they changed this, maybe if I kick and scream loud enough they will change another thing.

The optimist in me wants to believe that this decision was made completely of their own volition, without listening to any "feedback" and they really do have something in store for the in-game economy. Therefore the reasoning stated actually a tissue to wipe the tears of the complainers.

The pessimistic view is that If EME's approach to game design involves reading forums and listening to "feedback" then we might as well give up all hope now. Knee-jerk reactions to some forums posts without thinking things through and actually evaluating what costs/benefits/impact etc will be in the longer term mean that we won't be needing to pay a subscription fee soon.

The realist says that now the perpetual complainers sense indecisiveness and weakness from EME we must brace ourselves for even more tears - I don't think any of us thought it was even possible.

If they don't listen to our feedback it's bad?, if they listen to our feedback its still bad? Some people should make up their mind. Good feedback can be useful if you know how to use it, if they wouldn't be able to analyse the good feedback from the bad it mean they would fail anyway with or without it.
