TERA US officially going F2P

http://tera.enmasse.com/free

Frog TERA should follow shortly, I imagine.

its a dam hard world the mmorpg market how to get players ?
in this rate there wont be any p2p mmorpg anymore

only b2p and f2p
the list off f2p mmorpg is very big many games to try so for new mmorpg always hard to get players

first they try p2p model but they dont get many players so yea only option f2p ^^

Yeap, Froggy TERA going F2P too, just updated their webby.

I agree Gen, the MMORPG market now is way oversaturated. With each release the slice of the pie for each company gets smaller. Better to attract a larger volume of players by being F2P and then counting on the minority to invest in microtransactions.

The P2P model isn't as viable anymore as it was a decade ago. I think only a MMO with a wide range of innovations from the norm can pull it off now. Most just design a game with one very nice feature (TERA's combat, for example), and everything else about it is either mediocre or just plain sucks.

i wonder what the new final fantasy reborn gone do the first 1 was not great ad all i read from many players on forums

if they stil wanne earn some cash they beter do it B2P so ad least maby they can sell some copies if any is intrest in it

GW2 did a nice job on that sold many copies and have a cash shop to
and the player base is very nice but for how long i dunno XD

anyone gonna play this? im messing around with their Unlimited Trial to figure out what id wanna play when it goes F2P and hop on a new server.

Berserker = Best BAM soloer (but not as wanted in teams)

Knight = Most wanted EZ mode tank
Priest = EZ mode healer
Sorc = EZ most wanted DPS

The others are harder and thus less wanted

You mean Lancer, not Knight :p

Lancers actually qualify as auxiliary damage dealers now, their damage output has been raised. Warriors are now bottom of the stack as far as DPS output is concerned (not including priest and mystic). Berserkers mobility issues have also been lessened and have moved up the pecking order. Something like this:

Slayer/Sorc
Berserker
Archer
Lancer
Warrior

Descending order in DPS output.

Lol Eir still playing Tera?
You'r amazing!

Not really, my last login was before New Year's. Then again all I did was attend nexus raids and log off right after. Mostly back playing Pandora Saga and a bit RO2 when really bored.

There's nothing to do once you've cleared all the instances, unless you like repeating them to gear up for the next update. The most basic gear in the upcoming update outshines the best currently available, so honestly it's pointless to farm for it unless you wanna.

For the newly interested, do not play TERA for the PvP. I strongly recommend playing other stuff like Lineage if you're leaning towards that.

It's a shame Tera just isn't cutting it content-wise right now, because it's a very pretty game.

Wizardry Online was developed by the same company that made Pandora Saga. You can see very similar art elements/direction, and I suspect combat will be very close to what PS has as well.

If anyone is interested mad has got a guild going in a new pvp server (dawn of titans)
Neo and I are playing as well

i play Tera to but EU version am very sure US version gone lagg alot for me

My EU client download is at 85%.

I'll be on in about an hour i think.

i play a pve server atm is pvp like Dekaron every 1 can pk you ??
dont mind geting pk a few times but it much not be every time

ore are there some save zones and limit to pking ??

the point is i love to go to a pvp server np but i need the time to lvl up also
and not get hit by high lvl noobs that things killing lowbies is fun

Dekaron had some save areas first
also there was some limits to pking

even guards was placed in some areas so when your red and a guard sees you he come after you and kill you in 1 hit :)

obove 500 IP means there you kill players so you get IP
but above 500 and a player kill you then you end up in jail ^^

There are some safezones in Tera
And areas with guards

Also high lvl noobs get bored real fast of pking low lvls, so it really is not as bad as you make it sound.

I've played RoM on a full PvP server and as long as your guild is not in war with another guild playing on a PvP server isn't all that bad.

Also Tera's dungeon finding system allows you to enter dungeons from anywhere and with players from all servers, so you would literally be able to avoid all pvp if you need to

Ya, extremely often you will get matched with refugees from pvp servers when using the dungeon finder, wonder why *cough*. Not to mention TERA's pvp is retardedly skewed in favour of certain classes, assuming all are played with equal amount of skill/gear.
