Then fun part is that Tera actually has death penalty unlike the one in GW2 where you just instantly respawn COD style and run back in.

    If Tera wasn't an asian game it would be madly popular but the release window is truly really bad because of D3(15th) and GW2 Hype. 

    I've been playing games for over 15 years and Tera is the first MMORPG I can actually put my skills in use. All the other MMORPGs are all about min/maxing in Tera I can affect the success of a combat by playing extremely well and even overcompensate the weak/bad players.

    Tera might be a one trick pony (combat+BAMs) but I usually spend 90% of playing MMOs in COMBAT and to be honest everything else (crafting/quests/graphics/zones/classes...) are good or great in Tera. I don't see much negative in this game if you don't bother the "grindy" feel to the game and long levelling courve compared to western mmos.

    I still haven't seen the endgame and how challenging/fun the dungeons are. The fact that there are 6-7 endgame dungeons and no instanced raiding ("rifts" open world raids) makes me wonder. Having classes that play/feel completely different make alts a lot more fun though.

    Know what your talking about before posting.

    GW2 death penalty is based around having money to repawn and also with deaths you accumulate gear damage that must be repaired.

    Save yourself some money and just play Vindictus

      He's refering to the Stamina function in TERA that effects all of your stats.  You lose 50% of ths when you die on top of breaking a random crystal that can be very expansive to replace. Stamina can take a while to regen at a campfire so if you are in a mass PvP situation this can be brutal.

    Is what you would say if TERA's only quality was the combat and BAMs.  You are both wrong about this and Vindictus is a f2p lobby game with five skills, no comparison.

    Just not worth my time anymore.

    Sounds like a cash shop issue not a death penalty

    Actually there is no cash shop in Tera, so hardly. And the item you are talking about is verteran reward in kTera not from cash shop.

    from what I remember if you died you would lose all stam, also only chance you have to break crystals is if you are a pk (red named), and I still want to know what you guys see on bams? they are dirty cheap and easy to kill alone, only diference its take more time then the most 2-3 skills combat to normal mobs, and some pks....

    FOR HONOR, FOR FREEDOM.... and for some money.

    Your memory is failing you, you can break crystals by dying in pve as well as in pvp and even if you are not marked as outlaw. 

    Some BAMs are soloable others are not, and i personally like them cause it's risky and rewarding.

    NA cash shop will also have mats for crafting and a few other goodies, like a +12 enchanting scroll.

    Account management services now count as a cash shop in your book? Seriously?

    This is laughable.

     

    Btw, looks like you used google translator over a Korean page, then photoshoped the prices in dollars. So much effort to look legit, you can't be a paid shill, can you?

    Edit: Nm, some other clueless fellow did that.

    I'm missing your point, are you saying you found this on En Masse or Frogster site?

     

    And the funny thing is that page doesn't mention the crystal protection scroll you were talking about, but just some standard services that every MMORPG has. 

    So really you may want to Know what your talking about before posting.

     

    Edit: Ahhh sorry i saw you added a quote from a forum user... Well i bet i can trust him to have big inside in En Masse plans for the future. That's what i call a FACT.

    Since i'm a forum user too i'll give you another fact, NA Tera shop will sell the cure for cancer. Go spread the word.

    I've lost a crystal yesterday when a BAM killed me, so I can confirm that there is a chance in PvE as well.

    Oh, and I was very white ;)

    You can't blame them too much for the uninformed trolling. They are dead bored and since they are convinced that no other game will ever be worth playing will come to it's closest competitor looking for validation. I would expect it to gonon for months lol.

    Just not worth my time anymore.

  • Deron_BarakDeron_Barak Member Posts: 1,136
    Since launch I have lost a crystal every time I've died.

    Just not worth my time anymore.

    A reviewer rights a bad review for a game and all of a sudden it's a conspiracy?

    Currently Playing: World of Warcraft

  • n3v3rriv3rn3v3rriv3r Member UncommonPosts: 496

    No need to revive the thread. They don't deserve the publicity. I came to the conclusion that they are (especially gg) just self-righteous people who think they don't need valid arguments for their opinions (they declared tera a bad game long before they tried it). I play Tera and is not a bad game, it is not perfect and has its problems but definitely enjoy it at least for now. If and when I will have something to criticize about the game I will at least have a lot of gameplay under my belt.

    Yes it is a conspiracy only if it is not swtor image

    The sub constrain is precisely what is gonna make me last one month, not more. Actually it's good, but doesn't deserve a sub compared to what's coming ahead.

    you can play it that way.

    but you're gonna have a bad time!

    I think it's more likely that you and I don't play traditional MMO's the same way. =) GW2 is a fun template for a game so far, but it does so without being revolutionary in the way the gameplay is executed. I don't think that's a bad thing though. But I'm not going to pretend like there has been any learning curve with what has been made available to the pre-purchase public so far. It's all very intuitive based on experience in other games.

    Just saying.  Gamebreaker isnt a business entity.  They work off of donations from their viewers.

    That's what people get for giving money to a Korean MMO.

  • teakboisteakbois Member Posts: 2,154

    I looked at what was in the OP.  I don't get why this is a 15 page post.  Someone that doesn't care about action combat isn't interested in TERA?  This is something to get up in arms about?

    First of All the guy you quoted is known to be the biggest Troll/Retard on the TERA forums. Second This cash-shop DOES NOT Exist in TERA NA and never will, as simple as that. and the stuff about the +12 items are a load of shit that is clearly coming out of his ass.
