I'm Santa Claus and that is a fact we all must face.

 

Something that's really weird is I never notice pause between attacks on , I don't know console games but noticed it in Tera I don't know why either.

Combat wise as an Opinion I think GW 2 is better but Tera doesn't suck at all.

And thats your opinion, you're entitled to it, im going by what i see and seriously all i had to do for pve was sidestep while casting on my necro, it was like they just threw in a sidestep minigame to keep the combat a bit more interesting, i didnt get to try much pvp but got to try WvWvW i cant honestly say anything because one BWE and 2 hours of pvp wasnt enough time for me to find the right skill set for pvp being they just throw you in at lvl 80 with ALL SKILLS...people who played past BWE's had enough time to figure out the best skill sets so i got destroyed...so im clueless as what to say till i get more experience with the game....im buying it but the game is way over rated, which doesnt mean it's bad but....IMO tera combat was more interactive even if your gear carries you it gets much more intense, the only problem is the lack of content.

I hope I'm gonna meet a lot of people like you in PvP, so I can tear you appart while you just "sidestep" :)

And yeah, unlike Tera (and WoW), you don't have a gear advantage to save you here. If you're bad, you die.

I've only played Tera for a total of about 7 hours, so my assessment of the game isn't exactly fully fleshed out.  I liked the combat, but GW2 has my personal favorite combat of any MMO I've played to date.  As far as full twitch combat goes, I think even prefer something like Dragon Nest to Tera. 

Tera is garbage. The story is right out of pluto. The quests are generic and the only thing it thinks it offers that is unique is a dodge ability...which is not new. Basically the game from level 1 to endgame is junk and all you get at endgame is pvp with dodge.

What a great game.

Brah I'm being really generous, that's all I'm going to let you know. I'm gonna let this slide because we can all keep shouting out opinions, I'm just satisfied we went from "face the facts" to "IMO"  that's all I was getting at and wanted to see change lol.

All to there own i know alot dont like the combat in TSW but its not bad and with GW2 on the side its a great combo of games.

I think gw2 combat is just fine and need's not a thing from tera. Infact I would say gw2 is just fine and need's not a thing from tera.

i think i just puked in my own mouth

tera's combat was painfully boring after about 5 minutes. im not saying gw2 is the model all games should build combat off of, but its better than tera.

I do think the targeting style combat system has potential, but the devs need to do a better job of tailoring it to mouse and keyboard. Tera combat is just slow and cumbersome.

All guys you must take a look on this mmo !! the best is comming !

Blade and Soul

It will amazed you :D by NCSoft !

This is such a successful troll, lol.

On topic though, no, I do not think GW2 needs TERA's combat system. While TERA's system is quite good, the game is built around rooting, which necessitates borderline braindead enemy AI.

Don't believe me? Aggro 5 mobs in TERA and then try to aggro 5 mobs in GW2. Then tell me which is more challenging.

In addition, please tell me how balanced the classes are in TERA, atm. The combat and class system causes half the balancing problems. Compare slayer utlity to archers...compare priest utility to mystic.

TERA's combat is an epic foundation from NCSoft that was cracked by BlueHole. I really hope EME can save it, but idk if battlegrounds are going to be enough.

to me gw2 made a mistake with the combat system.

 

It is just horrible..

 

Also they should have sticked with classes and not let ever class/race go dps/heal/support/tank

 

Now lets combine the tera online combat system with gw2.

 

Gw2 WvWvW

Tera online combat system + class defined(more teamplay)

 

I think we have a winner here..

I have to agree.  GW2 was loads of fun but the combat controls are not much to write home about.  Tab -> AutoAim -> Autoattacking  :meh:     The FPS like controls of Tera are pretty good, a nice change after the dozens of tradtional combat MMOs that launch over the last few years.

Man the next person that says anything along the lines of "GW2 is aim > auto-attack to win" or "All you do is side step" should get banned for being the premise to idiocracy (great movie). If it was that easy, would people really complain about it? Or do these people think that they're super-intelligent because they figured out how to tab > auto-attack and/or side step? That might have worked in the level 1-4 zone, won't work in the level 10+ zones and you'll get bent over real quick in level 20+ zones. 

deeergeezusno.

tera lasted all of 30mins maybe on my HD and was gone. permanently. never comin' back.

How people can say that Terras combat is more active and better than the GW2 combat is really beyond me.

When you play a warrior in Terra you just hack through things without targeting ever needed, when you play a Mystic all you do is turn towards the enemy ONCE, then keep using like skill 1, skill 2, dodge skill (mystic jumps back), skill 1, skill 2, mob dead, while the mob runs towards you and stays that way there till you killed them.

Also the skills always root you so you can't move at all while using a skill which isn't a active combat in my opinion.

Active combat is like it was made in GW2, you can:

- move, hit, dodge (up to 2 times before recharge)

-  use the environment around you to avoid damage (going behind a huge rock or a tree so you won't get caught from  projectile)

- you can switch weapons on the fly

In GW2 you can also have:

- tons of variety to go with your class and its skills

- more strategy involved in a fight (enemy dependant)

- underwater battles with additional skills for more diversity

Don't wanna even talk about PvP.

The only thing I liked in Terra were the graphics partially, everything else was the same old approach I have seen in mmos for the last 12 years.

You don't have to tab in GW2. You can however if you want to.

With other words you can autolock a enemy by aiming OR tab if you wanna go that way.

I'm mostly only turning towards the enemy I wanna aim and use my skills.

Used tab maybe like 3 times max and that was 2 times in WvsWvsW and 1 time in a dynamic event in PvE.

GW2 combat is vastly superior. Tera hung their entire game on "Action Combat", only to be trumped by a game that also trumps them on every other aspect of MMORPG design. Tera wins on skimpy outfits. That's it.
