MMORPG.com will be hosting an exclusive live stream event with En Masse developers to talk about tomorrow's launch of TERA Rising, the free to play version of TERA. We'll be joining Executive Producer Brian Knox and Associate Producer Patrick Sun to check out some new and overhauled locations and much more. Join us at 2:00 pm PST (5:00 pm EST) TODAY in the MMORPG.com Live Stream Channel.

The stream will include a casual Q&A after the tour and talk by the dev team. It's definitely an event you won't want to miss!

Glad they put some effort into advertising the F2P.

Wish EU TERA did something aswell :P

The servers being down for 24 hrs is going to suck but between this change and the upcoming patch the game is getting some nice improvments.

f2p was the right way to go for tera. It should of launched this way.

Well see how F2P launch goes, hopefully they do it right and bring over the guild/faction PvP and raids from Korea in a timely fashion. Korea has also begun working on guild housing again.

I love this. Gw2 was a major flop for me and kind of been just playing LoL to waste time till archeage an TESO comes out but this will be awesome to waste some time and I heard its a pretty good game. I wonder is it better then gw2? guess I will find out.

It has the classic quest hubs - kill 10 rats - come back, etc. The combat system is different than others. The races are classic anime style. It is a decent game.

I dont mind go here kill that quest....GW2 is a good example of marketing. They have the same exact quest as every single MMO but yet they convinced the public that they are dynamic events that impact the world which they do not. They are the basic go here kill that pick this flower quest as any other MMO just repackaged.

 Pretty much, some of the hearts really started annoying me later on. But overall GW2s questing is still more enjoyable than TERAs, but not by much and it was mostly because of how much faster leveling in GW2 was, took too long in TERA, got painful in the 50s whereas I was 80 in GW2 before I could burn out. Masking the same old quest system only does so much, need to revamp the entire idea of levels in an MMO in my opinion.

I think a fine tweaked Runescape system in a fully functional AAA MMO would be the most ideal solution.

Heh, will give this a try for sure.

Their F2P chart seems very generous too, from what I saw :o

I counted the word "GW2" 11 times, 9 if I exclude quotes and add the one in my post (and hopefully last!).

Could we just not mention it, in a thread totally unrelated to it? 

You do know what happens soon after, right? Right?

Just

Gah, I hope the servers aren't down forever.  I spent yesterday running STO third anniversary event quests and haven't got to play my archer in a couple of days.

I got my wife and son an account they can share so we can duo BAMs and such.  $20 for the pre-order was a pretty good deal, imo.

Depending on what servers they open I might re-roll, but I've already got to the mid 20s on my archer and spent my one use mount token on him.

I really hope F2P goes well for them.  This is a great game.  It reminds me of Lineage without having to PvP.  Even the animation to pickup ground drops is similar to the old Lineage animation.
