Zadriel's Post History

Vampires,

Shara created them just as the other races were dreampt up by Arun. I would like to see it as a playable race, and I feel with a bit of effort they can be introduced without so much distaste as other games have.

They could easily fit into the darkened lands surrounding poporia.

Of other choices I would say: Prion, Half Elves, and Dark Elves (explained below).

Dark Elves could be the remnants of early elven cultures, the one who were abandoned by the faction that calles themselves "High Elves" now. Once different only by choice of lifestyle, now different by biology in that they had chosen the depths of Aborea as a haven. Pale, and in some cases gray, coarse flesh, black/white hair, fangs, slight claws and cat like eyes; darkened beauty. I could see them joining Valkyon to spite their High Elven cousins, and would get along quite well with Castanics in some principals.

Dark Elves in this sense also would be still rooted in nature, though in a perverse manner, perhaps worshipping nature itself to such a point that the lives of others meant nothing next to that of a tree's, or other such thing--however the things threatening Arborea that Valkyon stands against would appeal to what little reason they do have. Moreso chaotic, and inclined to evil behaviors in the name of their sacred ways, very vengeful, loathing creatures.
Celestial Hills server here and I experience some serious lag.

currently lag is beyond any lag i experienced in modern online games. this lag feels like going back to 2000 or 1990s with dial up modem with awful server and internet combination lag. i usually have not much complaint on what things are changed and how things are changed within the game. but when it comes down to stability of game play, i have problem with. as a sincere lover of this game, i would like to konw future of tera as, how you planinng on fixing massive lag issues due to your servers being overloaded in nexus, bg, and even raid in nexus this weekend. is there plan on expanding or upgrading your server capacity? or controlled population/connection? either case i'd like to know because i am not going to spend my time playing this game if it is going to continue to be lagfest.



Yeah I'm at this point sick of this. I didn't like Guild Wars 2 when I played it, but I'll play it until FFXIV 2.0 or they fix this game.

Tera is great, but FPS drag due to UI and then server lag to boot? Awful.

Erm ok... this topic isnt over the UI issues that not effecting me... but ok... clearly this is ur 1st mmo or online game bc clealry u havbt played other games with flaws and even console. Games have flaws


Actually, this post IS mainly about the UI issues. From what I have read, this is a CPU bottlenecking issue, which is easily fixable with a minor patch (one forum poster likened it to running a flash app over your game when you interact with the UI). In fact, opening my inventory usually gets me a 2 second freeze frame on whatever I am doing, no matter what my fps is at the time.

As for the comparisons with other MMO's, it's kinda the point we're trying to make. GW2 and other MMO's use different textures that cause less strain on our rigs, no matter how powerful or weak they are. However, you can probably run a rig at max on GW2 and barely even feel the fps drop, where as running TERA at the LOWEST settings during nexus gets you 0 fps (I was counting ~.5 fps in the video posted above). I am not saying to lower the graphics requirements and make the game worse, but it would be a simple matter to allow players to turn off floor effects (this is already a feature in WoW, but that's not the point), allowing players to be in the game without 50 hailstorms and mystic totems going on at the same time.

BUT I DIGRESS. The ENTIRE POINT of my thread was to simply try and receive a GM OR DEVELOPER response confirming or denying the issue, please take your arguments to other threads.


Yeah,

The argument is over.

I recommend you put this in your head post. It's links for GMs/Devs to very credible and diligent research with regard to the issue at hand.

Well,

Regardless. The UI FPS drain is obviously a flaw that can be corrected, but players let Bluehole/EME/Frogster slack on it.

It's class action worthy, a product that doesn't work can be taken to court for punitive damages to the company that distributes and manufactures it. Games are the same.

It's no excuse that someone paid 39-60 $ for a game that has such a ridiculous flaw.

Actually,

I won't play a game with a white knight troll, just see the links below and either accept reality or continue your stupor.

There are over 300 Posts across the EME/Frogster forums where people who average 17-30 FPS see a 50-60 Hike when they hide UI, that is not normal. UI Lag is a given in MMO's, but never like that. Never, not even with FFXIV.

And post your rig statistics. Run the Tera Diagnostic Test found in your launcher, save test results to desktop and copy the pass/fail results. (or see the link below)

https://tera-support.enmasse.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/216

Expose the actual FPS lag issue. Anyone experiencing FPS lag and they have good components, hit CNTRL Z ingame to hide UI, you will see roughly a 40-50 increase in FPS. Everyone in my guild has confirmed this for me.

Make EME carry the issue to Bluehole to be fixed.

Added Comment: Also a simple google search of 'Tera Online UI FPS' will unveil hundreds of NA and EU players with the same exact issue, all with good rigs.
