I'll be on in a few minutes. I'll /w you when I do get on. You could try sending a /w to Sobos, don't know for sure if he's on right now though.jeremy70583 said:

Weird, I keep trying to make a new character and it dumps me out of the game when I do the name.

How big is the game world? On those pictures above with a forest and mountains in the background, can I, for example, reach them?
It looks huge.

What is that last screenshot? Does this game have warp gates, or something?
Huge. Almost no invisible walls. I get on top of mountains/above play area all the time.-bakalhau- said:
It crashes your game when you try to name it? Try verifying your files when you start the launcher. Bottom right grey button.piratepwnsninja said:
No loading screens. When fast travelling to another region you enter a warp gate that doubles as a "loading screen". Can still do everything you normally could, you're technically still in the game.
I PM'd you a link to a torrent.EvaPlusMinus said:
It's very easy to set up an account. All the tutorials you'll need are in the second post of the thread. I'll update it in a bit with how to do gametime.

Found a quest guide that translates half decently:
http://translate.google.com/transla...nven.co.kr/dataninfo/quest/list.php?class1=13
===>Quest zone. [more than a garden] is the beginner zone. [Belrika] is the human city when you hit lvl 11 and fly to there using fly path horse. You will know which zone it is by just click them. Look at the quest level. And the description inside that quest. They also have screen shot of the NPC in game to show you where to go.

Figured it out.

The game looks absolutely ridonculous on those screenshots.
Has there ever been an UE3 game this good looking on this scale?
I wish I wasn't on narrowband right now, I've been loading page 13 for the last 25 minutes to look at all these screenshots and my browser is choking on it (50KB/sec =( ).

Obligatory whine about the size and scale of maps we could have had in pc only games instead of ports

Ok trying to convince some friends in my WoW guild to give this game a look and I need some ammo...
So sorry that all of these questions are to compare it to WoW...that is what we all play right now (Me and my Guild).
World : The world looks huge, with a lot of variety in the environments. WoW is pretty big now, would you say it is close to that? I mean if you take teleporting out of wow the game is huge.
Towns/Cities : In WoW every other town looks the same, the buildings are about 10 styles redone over and over. Is there some variety in the cities? Also in WoW you can pretty much go in every building and poke around. I don't see that a lot in Korean MMOs is this the same?
Fighting : I have already explained the way combat works to them. But is there anything you can think of that is annoying in WoW that I should point out as being better in this game?
Dungeons : WoW's formula for dungeons is trash - boss - trash - boss etc. Anything unique about Tera dungeons? Not a bad thing if there isn't, was just curious since most of the shots I see are outside.
Leveling/High End : How fast is the leveling? Does it feel well paced? In WoW it is race to 85 then grind gear. Any hints as to how deep the end game is in Tera?
Everything else...
Anything else to add as a comparison to WoW that would be worth mentioning?

argh, tried to add gametime to my account, payment went fine and all...but my paypal account wasn't verified, so the company requested not only that I verify my PP account, but also personal ID....
So I was like fuck it, I ll verify my PP account and ask them to just accept it....but then PayPal decided to act on me, and I can't get the instantaneous verification....I have to wait 2 more days for it to verify, this is ridiculous....

Yeah pretty much what I want to know (and I have asked before about it too). I'm looking for a big, beautiful game to explore. WoW was great, and I still have lots of new revamped areas to quest in, but I'm looking for something new too. WoW does have a huge, huge world. Would like a comparison with Tera.
The game is enormous. I haven't played WoW past level 30 so I couldn't say for sure, but for the game to have as many regions and as much area as it does is pretty much unheard of right after launch, I believe.Mr Pockets said:
It's Lineage 2 through and through. Huge, varied zones to explore, each looking completely different than the last.
Every single town looks completely different. You get to a new area and everything is unique. Architecture, style, mood, tone, everything. It's amazing, and the sense of discovery has yet to stop.Mr Pockets said:
Yeah, the fact that it isn't a tile-clicker. You're always engaged in the game, no matter what you're doing.Mr Pockets said:
Dungeons follow the same formula as pretty much every MMO ever (except maybe DDO). The bosses are nothing like anything I've fought in an MMO before, though.Mr Pockets said:
Leveling curve has been VERY smooth and well-paced so far. It moves at a decent speed, but it's not laughable like WoW.Mr Pockets said:
Yeah, don't compare it to WoW. This game is on a completely different level.Mr Pockets said:
Ugh, that sucks dude. So you already paid?Noshino said:

I've started work on a sort of FAQ. I'll be covering mounts, basic questing, and common inventory items.
Izayoi said:
I did :C
So now I have 22 bucks on hold, and a still unverified PayPal account.
I guess I ll wait til tomorrow to try once again to add gametime, hopefully I can get it working before monday...
Sucks that I've been working all week and now that I want to play the damn game, I can't :C
Anyway, yah, you need to clean up the OP a bit, haha.

That blows, mang. I'm having issues with paypal myself right now. Guess I'll be putting trying this game out on hold for a bit after all =(
Izayoi said:
I see nothing wrong with the way you did it. I'm not so sure what he was going at with that post. My only suggestion would be to clear up some space with the classes. Seems a bit large of a space for such little info.

The comparison isn't fair too, as TERA just launched. WoW got so much polish over the years and with Northrend, Outland and some of the revamped areas, it's just a very big world Blizz delivered. We shouldn't be expecting the same size from TERA when the game just hits the stores.
Though looking at the interactive map on the official site, I'd say it's big enough to ponder around for a couple of months.

Of course, this comes up with EVERY SINGLE MMO launch, and yet, there has been exactly zero that could survive and live long enough to deliver content enough to be called "complete". My problem is when advocates of one game tries to sell the game by calling upon WOW, when it is clear that spreading BS about that game wont convert anyone who is actually playing WoW and enjoys it. I know, it is the Big Thing That is Cool To Hate, but that is still pointless.
Do we got an EU release date for this yet btw?

I'm not even sure what this means. These two games are completely different beasts.
On a side note, there's a very creepy ass stream on jtv right now for this game. Creepy girl making out wallpaper, weird ass music, the works. He told me to fuck off. How rude.

Wait for the rest of who started later to catch up and you'll have a ton of people to group with. :3
The animation when you level up is, like the rest of the game, incredibly, excessively, pointlessly beautiful:
Unknown Soldier said:
I'm trying to catch up to a certain duo in our guild so I don't have to actually play by myself
I have a lv22 lancer that I can still use to play with a lower level group though but I'm going to stop leveling that unless a group needs a tank for an instance or something.
Also don't mind going back to older zones and help out if anyone needs help too because some of the areas are just not solo-able.

Actually, there is.Izayoi said:
Bluehole Studios has said that the true level cap for Tera is level 60. The level 50 to 60 content was not yet finished so they released early just to get it out and make money.
NCSoft did the same thing with Aion.
Im not bashing Tera because I think even with the missing final 10 levels Tera is better and more complete than most other MMOs.

I love how much detail is put into every little thing, especially the mobs, low level mobs in this game look like mid to end game level mobs in other games.

Ok, so I'm going to build a new computer just to play this game when the US version comes out. I can run it fine as is, but I'm still on a core 2 and 4 gigs of ram.

Ah, so it's super easy then?
That's a bit of a shame. I like difficulty in my MMO's to a good extent otherwise I just get bored no matter what the quest pertains. I'm a former FFXI player, and the story missions in that game were some of the most difficult things to get done in any game ever, but the feeling of accomplishment was second to none.
I'm hoping this game leans more towards that and not just a constant WoW set up where nothing is hard, until the very end game, and even then it's more of a time commitment then a super hard battle where you stay on top of a lot of micro.

Comparing it to the way WoW is "difficult" is completely wrong. You have physically dodge attacks, read enemy animations to do such, and aim all of your attacks so they hit while doing this. There is no tab-targeting at all. Your targeting reticle has to be on the enemy (or party member in the case of healers) for anything to hit. The best comparison, which has been thrown around, is Monster Hunter. It's that level of immediacy in the combat.
Make no mistake, this is not a faceroll MMO.
piratepwnsninja said:
I'll most likely play the game with a group of RL friends I've played most MMOs with throughout the years and who also play a lot of other genres of games in general. So the worry isn't going to be for us in playing it as an action game of sorts... I'm curious if the fights will require constant team work in a group and communication.
How often have you been dying in the time you've been playing? How steep is the death penalty?
