I like how you compare very early models of asura that are OBVIOUSLY not finished and compare it to a game that has been out a year and yes is very beautiful but the game is crap. You say the elin are cute... I think you have issues.. Tera sexualizes children. Elin are the bodies of 8 yr old girls wearing next to nothing and talking with the voices of mature women.. When I heard the voice I thought "cougar" and then was shocked to see who it came from. Tera recycles models over and over again and hell.. the L3 team who made Tera even copied the orcs(enemies not playable orcs) from L2! No wonder they got sued and lost!

The Elin thing is a bit weird and pervy, for sure.  Btw, you can choose out of 5 voices and my elin definitely sounds like a little girl for sure.

They're the fastest race so the best pic for sorcerer (who in TERA actually has to be highly mobile unlike every other mmorpg).

At least you admit it's very beautiful.  I have to disagree the game is crap as I'm having tons of fun with the action combat, but to each his own.

This whole thing started just cause I said it looks like crap compared to TERA.  Which they do.  For a good reason though.

When GW2 comes out I'll probably buy it.  I like PVP a lot in mmos and massive warfare sounds like a lot of fun.  

I was speaking of Elin NPCs and how when I played I had to deal with a guild called Elin Cream Pie spamming for recruits.

GW2 EVERYONE has to be mobile.. in Tera you have no choice to BE mobile for most situations as you are locked in place once you decide to do something.. I will use the example I use everytime.. Mystic.. teleport teleports you a ways in front of you, but then you cannot move at all until the camera catches up to you but now the mob you escaped is right back on your heals.. and really 1, space, space, space, space just isnt fun combat. Oh wait sometimes its left click, space, space, right click, space, space.

GW2 does not look like crap compared to Tera, it looks different. I personally think Tera looks better but not by a huge margin.

What you describe is nothing like a sorcerer's playstyle, or a berzerker's playstyle, the two classes I have played so far.  In fact I'm not sure how much it is like any classes playstyle.  How far did you get in the game?  From what I've read, Mystics have the most abilities in the game so obviously there's going to be a lot more than just doing combos from base attacks.

Tera's combat is the least repetative of any MMO to date because you have to react to what the NPC or player is doing and aim.

Did I miss the reply where someone should be directing this yahoo to the Tera forums?

Wait, why is he here again? Is he thinking his personal opinion is going to reshape the fabric of everyone's existence and suddenly we all are going to be thinking like him?

Wake me when that happens.

That is being generous to Guild Wars 2. TERA looks about 10-20X better.

Do you really think that more words puts an end to this. Your point was made 15 essays ago and you still think you are changing minds? Why is it important to you to change minds? You invest in the development of Tera?

Tera is finished, this one is CB.

Also, as mentioned in their dev notes, this version had high-res textures disabled, the engine was optimized for CPU only and used Dx9 only.

Well that makes sense.  What doesn't make sense is everyone saying "Oh wow that's beautiful" when clearly it's crap.

I guess people are just seeing things through gw2 fanboi glasses or something.

Sounds like you're on a mission...

No, just participating in the TERA vs. GW2 debate that's going on and is bound to increase as GW2 gets closer to launch.

 Everyone is saying the pictures are so beautiful when clearly to anyone reasonable they look dated.  There's a reason they look dated.  Someone said that they only are using dx9 and have not implemented high rez textures.  Well, that makes sense and it is the reason the pics in the first post are so bad.  I thought initially that those were examples of the best GW2 is going to have to offer.  Clearly that's wrong.

Hey only you say they look dated.  I Think they look gorgeous and mesmerizing plus it is the best combination of Ambiance and breath taking appeal to ever hit the market.  You say Tera looks awesome, I say it looks like it was designed by pedophiles for some Nambla convention.  You wont change your mind and I most certainly will never change my mind nor will I ever touch Tera with a 2730986 foot pole cause its the same crappy failed MMO on a dated concept.  So leave it at that.  We simply agree to disagree and go about our merry old posting rights like responsible gamers.

You mean it's Terrable?

i think he meant tera has better graphic than gw2

You think?

In my opinion.....

TERA looks like an anime/manga nightmare.  Literally, it looks like something from my nightmares.  GW2 is lovely, beautiful, stunning.  There is no comparison in my book.  As a matter of fact, the graphical TURN OFF of TERA is what keeps me from playing it.  I can't stand to look at it.  GW2, on the other hand, is just beautifully dreamlike.  The cities are the most amazing cities I have seen in any game and many of the landscapes were breathtaking.

I want to look at more screenies!  Anyone else take any during BWE?  I have to admit that I did not.  I was too busy paying attention to dodging and about 60 spells (elementalist).  Fun times, fun times. :)

Oh, no. Any moderator or admin to clean topic? I came to see screenshots, all I see is TERA vs GW2 arguing.

Offtopic:

TERA has better graphic. But, GW2 is more beautiful than TERA.

Ok, here.

Right you are a pedofile? This is better than Gw2 seriously, ok tera have better graphics suport direrctx 10 and 11, but the art of Gw2 is the best i ever see in a mmo and it s beta these graphics will be improved for sure....

lol no but I do play an elin.  Unfortunately, there's no way you can stand without seeing the panties of the female characters in TERA.

But I'm not sure where you're getting your info from that the GW2 graphics will be improved for sure.

Im sorry but that SS reminds me of a 12 year olds hello kitty adventure land vista and its horrible, not lively and way to cutsey for serious gamers.  [Mod Edit]

 

Now this is some serious Mans game with manly appeal and gritty no nonsense mideval world ripe for adventuring and exploration.

 

 

And this one shows the beauty and breathtaking vista that a truely living world of a GW2:

 

 

Yay, I'm in more pics on the forum!!  My Charr is a boss!

Also,  even though not mine.  I still love this little pic here:
