OK, I know better to gush about a game this early on, and I make no definitive statements about Tera, but from the small amount of play tonight... It's nice. Very nice. Logged in flawlessly this time, and performance was tight. The combat seems easy to learn but a lot to master as you build up your skills I also love the Korean art style and the world to me is stunning, as are the models which are beautifully animated. Far far better then in other new games (especially you-know-what). The quest so far have been very generic 'Kill 10' affairs, but that has suited me while I learn the basics so no biggie. All in all, very positive first go which has me hanging out for the full sneak peak.

I agree, I played a warrior and got to level 9, once you get a few skills it gets very fun. Level 9 enemies were hitting me for 1/3 health with their special abilites, I actually managed to die once.
This is seriously impressive for such low levels, especially when I think back to killing boars in WoW. I will just wait for the level 20 BAMs, I know theres 5 or so level 22-28 BAMs and I want to kill them all.
The graphics are very nice, the starting area is really pretty and beautiful but for those who like dark zones there is plenty of that too. Very positive first impression...
Not to mention I had 75fps with about 150 people on screen at the very beginning. I couldn't get 35fps in rift PVP, says a lot about the engine.
Looking forward to future tests.

Yeah I was able to play for about an hour and a half today, and I was amazed by how smooth it ran with so many players running around. However, I did notice that something was up with the gfx, they were kind of fuzzy-looking compared to the Korean client. Not sure if that was due to testing or what, but I hope performance doesn't suffer once the gfx are set back to their sharper settings. |

Love how the thread saying it's a weeaboo pile of turd has 3x the views and this thread stating what we liked about the game has next to nothing...just goes to show you what people want to read.

I played Korea and loved it...my only complaint would be that mobs are to easy. Even the bam's...when you are equal level, you can solo them. Hopefully they changed that on NA. |

Originally posted by afhn2110 Depends which ones really, some are super easy like basilisks but ones like Balrogs are a little intense.
Maybe they could just make them permanently enraged? Many look absolutely stunning when enraged and are much harder to fight.

Originally posted by Vesavius It is not that strange, there were a lot more people trying to log on this weekend, most didn´t know about yesterday at all. I figured out that I had access about the same time they closed down the servers myself, and I spend a lot of time on the forum. It doesn´t help that Froggster never mailed me about the test either, keeping an eye on twitter all the time is much even for me. |

yeah, I can understand the bad feeling about all that, it was an embarrassing mess for sure. Have to say though Loke... It all kind of washed away when I logged in and tried the game. It exceeded my first impression expectations in terms of visuals and performance. It looks like they will be holding the event this weekend though, so hopefully folks will log in and see for themselves :) |

How did you guys manage to download the game?
I bought it off the site, and my account is sorted, but when I log into the client it says that my user is not active, but according to my account it is?!
:P |
