Chib, you nor anyone else knows what GW2 is going to do for the genere, only what people think it will. We'll have to wait and see. TERA offers a lot more than it's combat. I don't expect you to know this since your not interested in TERA but since you have camped in this thread you might come a little more prepared.
The P2P/B2P gets muddied if you offer a lot of convenience items people want to purchase. Arguing the merits of one over the other are silly.
you mean the cash shop that tera has in korea and will probably come here
i played the tera beta it looks pretty and has action combat
its fun but not worth $15 a month to me
and it was already discussed earlier that my issues with being rooted
when you use an ability goes away after lvl 20
but it doesnt change the fact that the game gives a bad 1st impression
i was interested but with GW2 coming id rather wait and try its beta out
before i choose to spend my money
i could try gw2 and not like and then ill just b playing aion till PSO2 comes out in the US

On my word if NA TERA has a cash shop like the one GW2 looks to have (they might change it a bit before release) and still expect a sub price I will unsub and never look back until it's changed back. I don't care about skins (cosmetic items) or special looking mounts in a P2P CS. In fact, like you yourself said, item shops to sell well but to me it's what's in the CS that's important.
With all these other high profile MMOs running ramparnt atm (SWTOR/TSW/GW2) I feel that TERA might just be that sleeper that makes a bigger spalsh than people are predicting. I tried out the CBT but didnt really get into it much as I knew my character was going to be deleted, I didnt want to get too attached. Now that Open Beta is upon us and we actually get to keep the character through to launch (normally unheard of) then I can really sink my teeth in.
This will be what Final Fantasy XIV and AION should have been (for the western audience) and I forsee a smooth laucnh.
Not to mention, it will knock Age of Conan off for being the best looking MMO. I simply have not seen better graphics (better than GW2 too) on PC, EVER!! Thats right, this has to be the most beautiful piece of electronic artwork I have ever seen!
If you have not seen it in action, you are missing it!
TERA for MMO GAME OF THE YEAR!!
Hell yes! My 3rd CBT just ended 20 minutes ago in the middle of the huge bossfight and i must say that Tera have returned my faith in MMO's at last. After Age of Conan, Warhammer, Aion, Rift & Swtor im finding game that feels like oldschool real MMO as it should be. I have returned and im definitely gonna be participating and look what Tera have to offer.

You know... Buy-to-play (B2P) does not always involve a cash shop. That's the price to get the game off the shelf for patch #AB.CD.EF.
The cash shop is ultimately the decision of the publisher. If the publisher adds a cash shop, it shows that they want to milk the customers for some extra revenues.
Ah, thanks. I figured as much. The items themselves I don't care about. The reason is that I never purchase CS , well, other than EQ2 when I was planning to get AoD. That was ironically before I found out about TERA lol.

Or you know because ANET is a company and the number 1 job of any company is to make money -.- Do people seriously not understand how bussines work? Its to make money with in given law.
Seriously this thread is going no where, people who don't like Tera won't like it no matter how much we defend it. So i really don't see the point. Also if you don't like Tera and you made your point (about 10x over the same damn things) just leave the thread for peopel who enjoy the game. All for constructive critism but when you always viewing everything negative there is so much construstiveness it in before we back to flaming back and forth. Seriously so many people here say they don't care about Tera why the hell are you all here? I don't care about GW2 or TSW at all so i avoid their forum. So when do people pay most attention to things they don't care about? Why the heck are half the people posting even here? There seriously nothing on GW2 forum at all or something?
Diablo 3 will be released in the same month of Tera Online's launch. I won't be signing up for Tera Online until I am done with Diablo 3, probably after June.
Even then, I am hestitant on registering for Tera Online because of the p2p payment model. If I play 6 days in a month, $15/month is not worth it. I would definitely get this game if it was b2p. This game seems too good to turn down like the other MMO's. I would probably have to reconsider in July.
I agree. EME should have considered other payment models before releasing the game considering the terrible release time they chose.
I would be very surprised if it survives the year without going F2P. I think they are just going to milk as many box sales and subs for as long as they can.
EME is going to "milk subscriptions" based on current gaming trends? I hope TERA stays P2P as long as they make the game worth it. I believe the game will be more than worth a sub at launch but in paying a sub the game should be continually improving. It's not EME's fault people treat MMOs like console games and if the current trend is all B2P/F2P that's great. By all means play those games. I think you will find there are many willing to pay 15.00 for a solid game with no gimmicks.

I am not saying that they should adopt the B2P model or saying that the B2P model is financially better. Just clarifying that it suits me better (me being casual and not spending at least half of the moneth playing) and B2P does not always involve a cash shop.

I rolled CH. I had intended to roll PvP until my cousin was going to play (hates OWPvP) but now his trip to Thailand has him waiting. Then I found an awesome RP guild . I really hope they bring GvG to PvE servers because I love PvP lol.
I hope you guys rock BC! Sounds like VoT got a little full lol.
Why are people so defensive? If someone approached me and told me they think "X" movie is better than "Y" movie, I wouldn't stand there and tell them why they're wrong. Why do people feel the need to do this with MMO's? Do people really need to justify their tastes in video games to a complete stranger?
You know, that's something i really don't understand either. What i see here is a group of certain individuals that only have eyes for GW2 and any other game that defies their game is already dead before birth. It is pathetic. Seriously, why all the hate? Why can't gaming communities be compatible with each other and do a very simple mental exercise to understand that it all comes down to personal preference in the end?
It's like civil war is upon gamers just because they prefer different games. Ah, when will mankind truly understand each other...
TERA failed in Korea and it'll do the same here. The Secret World has a better chance at being successful, meanwhile Guild Wars 2 will be a guaranteed hit.
Troll detected.
At least in Tera you can PK them, here not so much.
Only if they are unwise enough to be on a PvP server. ^^ On one of Teras PvE servers, you would have the same problem. ^^

You're right, it would seem kind of petty to come to another games section with no intention other than to bad mouth it's game and promote their own.
There have been some posters who have great points to debate. Others have had either rimshot one-liners or have been reading of the pamphlet given by their game lol.

frankly, i dont get a shit as i intend to play both tera and gw2, what puzzle me why ppl post shit when both games arent even launch yet....
just a waste of time imo, trying to predict whats gonna happen really if u are so good at it you should be a rich man by now instead of wasting your time here ROFLMAO.
