TERA's E3 2011 Award Wins

A hands-on session with four other players against a high-level boss and details about the game's unusual politics – which sound like a clever balance between Eve Online's free-for-all galactic intrigue and a theme park ride MMO like World of Warcraft— have this at the top of my MMO list.

Personally I'm going for the "something new" choice, since I can always re-up my WoW account. TERA's player-driven politics and action-oriented combat are different enough to make me take notice, especially given how good the game looks and how well it played at this year's E3.

The combat system is what really won us over and looks to be a game changer for the MMO genre. We’re excited to see more and can’t wait for this one to go live.

The game play and combat move incredibly fast for an MMO and players will enjoy the quick combat in the game. With a UI that allows for some combinations and dodges, MMO combat will not be the same once this game hits the market. TERA continues to impress by having some of the best demos at game shows. If you are at a show with a TERA booth, definitely take the guided tour, you won’t be disappointed. TERA has all the features of a major MMO, but it is the combat in this game that really shines. We look forward to more as the game continues to grow and launch in the Western market. Fast paced fights and monster boss battles, TERA wins our best combat award for E3 2011.

Why TERA Was The Best MMO of E3 2011

TERA is colorful enough to keep your eyeballs at full attention, and innovative enough to warrant this glowing mention. Heck, after playing it a few times at E3 2011, we named it Best MMO, and I’m here to tell you why.



Publisher En Masse Entertainment is doing its best to concisely sum up and promote the game, as our walkthrough crew tossed out phrases like “money, power, and fame” and “all action, no faction” during our demo session. What are these catch phases eluding to? Well, for starters, TERA does not segment its player-base into factions. This is bad news if you are looking to add a new “FOR THE ” T-Shirt to your geeked-out collection. However, on a positive note, this does open the world up to the player base. As for the other buzz words — you’re going to have to read on my friend.

As we explored TERA's political system, the demo shined as the most polished one we saw at the convention. Expanding the role of politics in-game will create a whole new dynamic for players, and we believe TERA holds a lot of potential for its North American audience. We'll definitely be keeping our eye on this game as we wait for details on the testing and launch schedule.

Sure, the graphics are great, the world is begging to be explored, the story in captivating, but it all comes down to the simple truth that TERA is fun. The action based combat and the sheer joy of successful co-op group play makes this game an easy winner.



We'll be looking for you at later events this year, TERA. Please keep our seats warm for us. We'll be back soon!

We all enjoy playing the game so much, we're already starting to fight over who gets to play it again next time.

    Sounds like Tera was HOT at E3!  It seems to be making a good impression and is finally getting some press.

    This stuff doesnt really mean anything.
    I remember going to the Warhammer webpage and the right side was full of these.
    Now look at the state of that game. Pretty sure Tabula Rasa also got a whole mess of these and that game is dead.
