Are these still on the agenda and will they be out before this next subscription cycle?

I don't get this line of reasoning. You know that 1) Every other version of this game has some type of premium content. 2) Most other games sell items like these, not just the account services but vanity services too. 3) You also know one of the selling features of this game is an item that you buy for real money and can trade in game that gives a month of game time.
With all of this knowledge, it should be fairly easy to assume that there would be a cash shop eventually. Also, what the shop has really doesn't add anything besides cosmetics which you would be receiving by subbing at the end of this month. People will try to find anything to have a issue with, but they don't think about how ridiculously small the issue is.

Funny thing is.. it's not a conspiracy or anything. It's true.
GW2 CLEARLY states before release about their cash shop and its contents.
Tera in its defense has a two year old article before release. (only thing trolls can cite)
So which of these two seems less deceptive? I wonder.. I wonder why Enmasse didn't make any other claim about the vanity cash shop after the two year old article.
Conspiracy starts here:
I can only guess that they thought any more mention of ze cash shop would harm sales..
I for one would never be here, posting on these forum had I been told, UP FRONT, that there would have been an included additional fee of content labeled as vanity in a cash shop.
FFS let it go man!
The Tera "Cash Shop" provides no in game benefit. But from what I hear, GW2's will.
If that is true, tell me again which is worse for the player base?
I invested money in this game. How could you possibly tell me to "let it go" when I've clearly been deceived? Did I also mention that I knew nothing about Tera 2010? Around the time the article was released...
I only recently became aware of Tera this 2012.. around the time the big hype about this action MMORPG started. I do tell you that NO WHERE! Anywhere was there any official announcement about future vanity cash shops and its contents.
As for the content the cash shop for GW2 has is irrelevant. What matters is that Areananet makes it clear to its customers about a cash shop prior to release. To the point that there are pictures of the cash shop and official multiple announcements.
Once again, had I known that Tera would include an additional cash shop for access to further content prior to release.. we would never be having this discussion, Swaay.
If possible.. I'd like a refund and be done with this all.

There was twice where I was like 1 bar away from the next area, but I was able to do a repeatable quest for the second time, the first time I just finished up a story quest line I skipped over.

Any class change affect the whole game, not just pvp.
If you're not going to be PvPing, how can you even remotely understand the importance of class balance?
It's not your concern. You don't have anything to lose no matter what happens.

I just remembered something. Rift's beta actually had a build where level was fairly difficult and you always had some risk of dieing if you overpulled, pulled with low hp, etc. That build was actually killed off by the community, so I don't know if it's an overall mmorpg community thing but for difficulty it's probably best to aim low.
Anyone know if we need to wait for tuesday to get our lions too?
I do wish that one day there will be that innovative crafting system that makes you heat the metal to X degree, then cool it X degrees, then bang it with a hammer, and if you can time it right it makes a better item, but if I can't have that depth this is fine. It's straight forward, useful, and the GUI for it gives me the information I needed, and, best of all, your crafting time is decreased as your level goes up. I do wish I had a reason to care if I could craft that next green bow on the list, but I also know it might be a requirement and that would make the system worse.
Hmm in an open world game, you need to be prepared for combat to be below your skill level, at least in the beginning. I mean I know I really was never in any threat of dieing in the last 32 levels I did, but I also attribute that to 1) I knew the mobs 2) I knew my class and 3) I knew the combat system.
This was actually the first review I liked about Tera. Most just say THE NEWBIE ISLAND SUCKED DON'T PLAY. He went over the noobie island, and went past and pretty much tested the full game and put out his thoughts on it. Whether you like the guy or not has no impact on if the review was fair or not and I think it was pretty fair. ILL ALLOW IT!
You do know, if you just had done it and not said anything nobody would know you modified that file. And now they do.
