Bluehole Studio unveiled today their Project S1, which will be named T.E.R.A Online.
Bluehole Studio was found on March 2007 by a serial entrepreneur Byung-Gyu Chang and former core members of NCsoft.
Bluehole's development team includes the former development team members of Lineage II including Producer, Lead
Game Designer, Lead Programmer, and Art Director.
Currently Bluehole Studio has over 100 employees, mainly in the development side.
The game under development, "TERA" is a blockbuster scale MMORPG.
TERA is clearly differentiated from World of Warcraft or Lineage II by ...
i. Dynamic battle system
ii. Next generation graphics
iii. Enhanced community experience
An executable game prototype that demonstrates the dynamic battle system is ready for evaluation
"Tera highlights its non-targeting battle mode. In non-targeting battle mode, the player can directly attack monsters without having to select monsters, which is totally different from other MMORPGs out there on the market. This awesome feature will greatly improve the sense of reality and excitement of the game."

Jesus christ.. another cookie cutter theme park bs game that is trying to sell it's title with SEX.
Features and gameplay should sell. Not sexy character models.
I know a lot mmo gamers are lonely guys, but wtf. MMO is not like going to redtube. MMOs are about the gameplay and friendships you make. About the features and the longevity. Those screenshots are basically of two hookers and then some macho guy below. Wtf?
How about a screenshot of scenery or a massive battle?
Or the trade window.. jeez. wtf man?
TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT!
I saw videos of this, it's not like other MMOs, fast paced action and looks like a lot of fun. Try researching before you speak, makes you look like an idiot.
Is a Korean game. What did you expected in terms of character models? I for one , I really like it.
And about the gameplay, we don't know much about it, just take a look at the teaser.

Gameplay video, only from a Spectator view.
actually, its supposed to have "action MMORPG" combat.
i think i saw some casters moving and strafing fullspeed while shooting fireballs in the video

A Korean MMO that at least doesn't appear (visually) half bad. I'm impressed.
these two images looks nice, If thats how hookers look, I sould be out more :-)
If hookers will look like that, hell .. we all should be out more
The guys at mmosite said that CBT will begin this summer. Hence, i didn't saw any annoucements on the official website about this, but if is true.. they move pretty quick.

Look how Onrpg presented the game unlike this forum these guys are the exact opposite you presented wrong IceAge need a better entrance on these forums to impress look here http://www.onrpg.com watch the video its nice game but the only problem is will it ever even touch US soil. Ive been waiting for a game to actually allow mountain climbing and allowing rows of tanks to actually mean somthing.
Haha. Well...I watched the video and boy ohh boy...looks like WoW on super steriods with the sex-me female characters in their magical high-heels and uber near-nipple-slip bikini panty armor.
They can sure spit them out over there...Im assuming Korea.
I presented it wrong? If someone does not want to click on the links i show, then is not my problem. I am not a profesional write , just a normal user who just wanted to show this game to other ppls.

Yes this game sure looks promising, I think targeting will get old real quick post 2009 and upcoming games with targeting will fail misserably. Nontargeting is the way of the future!
No no no, got it all wrong.....its full body floss garments!
Anyway, it looks pretty good for another Korean Grinder, and the animations of the enemies is very well done. I do especially like the animal races, specially of that little bear/panda/thing swinging that huge 2H Axe. I do hope though that the other 2 really small animal/plant things near the end are playable races also....those were neat!
I know I should not like this... Korean stuff, terrible view of women in pretty much the lowest most juvenile way, probably yhe same asian stuff that has been done and rehashed so many times...
But... I liked that video. Looked but fun and with a real nice art direction. Can't believe myself.
"This is not a game to be tossed aside lightly.
It should be thrown with great force"
you crazy Koreans and your oversized weapons ... whats up with that ... AIONs semi oversized weapons i can handle. an Axe thats 3 times as big as a character ... eh a little much.
looks like an interesting game someone keep me up to date on it
if you analyze it a stange kinda way ... i think they are saying women are tougher than men. Men are always wearing huge oversized layers of armor to protect themselves. women are apparently so badass they don't need any of that wussy armor to protect themselves.

Or the simple fact that sex and naked women sells and its a majority of men playing these games so you do the math.
You sound so shocked, I think you need to go out more and try to meet some women. If you are lucky you'll also learn what sex is and you'll hopefully have a higher view on women.
@ OP, it's always nice to hear about a new mmo coming out, even more so when some ncsoft members are involved.
Games looks nice and could be fun just have to wait and see.. hope it does an US launch . also tho i am waiting on darkfall to come out sometimes , why is it that all i ever see from farkfall fanboys is how bad other games are or that they have the same fantasy stuff.. darkfall is no diff then the rest they are using what has be out before .. pvp done that, crafting hmm.. yes same ships OO nope seen it big worlds .. plenty of those out.. so why can't people just hope all games make it .. is good for all and the mmorpg gamers.. just my 2 cents..
Videos show promise so we'll see what they deliver.
Wow that teaser blew me away, especially the raid boss fight. Perhaps a game where tanks play an actual defensive role for their team mates, not a stupid aggro system that doesn't make sense.
All I have to say is wow.
This game looks amazing.
The cities and world environment look phenomenal.
This is being added to my list.
What a hypocrite.
First of all you don't know jack about the game. Most of us don't, as barely any information has been released yet about the game. The only reason you're calling it a "cookie cutter theme park BS game" is simply because it doesn't have darkfall slapped on it.
It's quite funny, considering that the studio started 2 years ago and already they have a full blown gameplay trailer out. How long did it takes Darkfall again?

If you think asian mmorpg's will always stay the same you're only kidding yourself. It's only natural for a genre to advance and just like that is currently happening in the west, it's also happening in the east and games like this are the result of that.
Also, for those who don't want to wait forever to have the trailer streaming from Korea:

Op you might want to add that link to your post.
eh...
not my thing, but hope it comes out alright!

Guys! I'm hopelessly lost in a mountain of mole hills! Them damn moles!
Im betting that either.....
You have not looked at the video.
Are jelouse that Bluehole studios can in 2 years develop a pretty nice looking fun game unlike Adventurine.
Anyway i personally think that game shows some promise especially the combat.
Another great example of Moore's Law. Give people access to that much space (developers and users alike) and they'll find uses for it that you can never imagine. "640K ought to be enough for anybody" - Bill Gates 1981
