i played the beta, i was unimpressed with it tbh, i think they really shouldnt have put you into a big battle then start you down to lvl 1 grinding like that.  maybe the other way around.

anyways- i usually measure how many people play a game via these forums. since jsp is my home page and i come here for everything game related. i feel that with a post on this subforum every 12 hours and a top of 5 people browsing the tera forums, and nobody talking it up it must have really dropped the ball.




i am looking for a game to play since diablo 3 ended up being WoW2 and not diablo at all.


is there a large community for this game somewhere im not aware of?


dont go by the pop of jsp. final fantasy 11 wasnt big on this sites forum and thegame was amazing for the 7 years i played it, and VERY populated. Tera just didnt do enough advertisment imo to get the word around. Im just waiting till blizzards next mmo

I fucking love it and still play every day, my guild is tight knit and we are vanarchs of the Lumbertown area on Jagged Coast

This game isnt bad at all, people just aren't giving it a chance.

The game is actually not dead. There is still a good amount of people playing the game and the game was originally made to be F2P, so if they ever go to a point where they aren't making profit by P2P anymore, they can always go F2P with a cash shop type thing and go with their original plan.

If the game did go F2P, a lot of people would obviously come and try the game as well. The game is far from dead.


Also interested if whether the game is dead or not as I'm looking for a new game to play. However your opinion sounds extremely biased. Everyone who loves "their" game wouldnt admit to any flaws in it, especially player count.

No, it has flaws, many of then, but they are actually worked on a lot of them. (Just read the dev tracker)

Slayers are extremely overpowered in PvP at the moment, the enchanting system is pure RNG, and many others. I have a topic with 12+ pages on the main boards with lists of compiled complaints in a mature post. I am not one for attacks devs, it doesn't help.

I love the game, no doubt about it, but the game still needs a lot of work. It has an amazing core, so there is still a huge hope for the game, especially with the new patch right around the corner and the new BG coming out. (It is like League of Legends in an MMORPG BG - So sick)

Way to make accusations though.

Yeah TERA was pretty much a fail game in many aspects. EME endorses mass spamming and zerging, rewards you for doing so and then slaps on another one.

There is absolutely nothing to do once you reach max level. The crafting curve takes a 90 degree turn at a certain point and it's just like, what the heck just happened here?

Almost all monsters are re-used throughout the entire game and it's pretty much 100% linear. For the amount of time they put into this game, this is a very disappointing game. Some like it, some think it fails, I'm with the latter. I have nothing against those who like it though.

On another note, "true action MMO" is sort of misleading. Vindictus had more action ages before TERA.

pretty sure they would lose people wtih it being f2p as f2p is for the rich kind of game.

and f2p games suck in general.

flyff,allods, just a few off the top of my head.

liking the game so far because of the graphics, fighting system, and the fact that its p2p.
