/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Really? They want to compete with GW2?

>>7694502
And ToR and the new WoW expansion, not a very clever business model if you ask me.
It'll be joining the likes of failed at launch games like AoC, Warhammer Online, Rift and countless others.

>>7694502
No, think about it. They could have had the game out by now if they were not removing Elins. So they delayed way to long now Blizzard and Bioware both announce Betas for their two biggest new games. So they can rely on a niche market now that they are butchering Elins and now they can rely on a mass market since no, non pedo, in their right mind would choose Tera over Star Wars or Diablo so they are forced to push it back until a better time suits them. However by then no one is going to care any more. Plus this gives Blade and Soul even more time to get it out in NA before them. Blade and Soul isnt planning to censor their game, so all they have to do is get it out and translate it.

Flop of the year 2012

>>7694484
>a spring 2012 launch date.

Oh, wow, and I was aiming to build myself a new rig for this eyecandy game this summer. Guess I have no reason to hurry with that.

>>7694513
And Warhammer 40k: Dark Millenium iirc. Monthly subs with zero income are a pain.

>>7694544

Now I hope this thread sticks around to make you mad.

>>7694516
>They could have had the game out by now if they were not removing Elins.
I want what you are smoking.

Also the censoring job, aka adding pants to models takes no time at all to do, what takes time is making the content for western gamers.

Unlike Koreans to us grinding forever for exp and a little bit more gold and stats is not acceptable.

For this game not to be a total flop they have to create a fuckton of content to keep western gamers for more than two weeks after release.

Sure they could release it right away now if they wanted.
The game would fall apart within weeks though.

>making the content for western gamers.

Oh boy a series of kill 10 rats quests that lets you hit the level cap in 5 minutes like in RIFT.

GOTYAY

Going to give this a try along with GW2. Combat seems interesting enough, and I don't really care about the changes to Elin anyway.

>>7694484
>>7694516
This poster's brilliant sarcasm is such a pitch-perfect parody of weeaboos freaking out over completely unknown changes that for a moment I almost thought he was one of them.

Great post, we need more like this on /jp/.

Are they really going to censor pantsless lolis?

Adding in censoring AND trying to compete with GW2? I kind of feel sorry for them. I want it to do well, I'll try it out anyway but I doubt it'll go far.

>>7694513

Define 'failed'. I can't comment for Rift but Aion and WAR are both going pretty strong last time I checked.

2012? Good work there guys.

>>7694701
Fun fact, Patrick Wyatt, one of the founders of Arenanet (GW2 Developer) is the Chief Operations Officer of En Masse, who are releasing the English Tera.

>>7694601
Are you gay or something?

Holy fuck. I have been waiting for months. Why are they taking so much time? It's just a fucking translation + servers. Fucking piece of shit.

>>7694858
Read
>>7694560

And that is why.

2012? That's too late.

Might as well say never.

Forget about Tera? But i'm already playing it... on korean server that is.

And I can assure you that it takes about a week to get from 40 to 50 (considering we have a level 58 cap), so I wouldn't say it's much of a grind fest needing "adaptation for western audience".

HATERS GONNA HATE. HATERS GONNA HATE. HATERS GONNA HATE. HATERS GONNA HATE. HATERS GONNA HATE. HATERS GONNA HATE. HATERS GONNA HATE. HATERS GONNA HATE. HATERS GONNA HATE. HATERS GONNA HATE. HATERS GONNA HATE. HATERS GONNA HATE. HATERS GONNA HATE. HATERS GONNA HATE. HATERS GONNA HATE. HATERS GONNA HATE. HATERS GONNA HATE. HATERS GONNA HATE.

Why are they removing the moe pantless loli? The people who would be offended won't even know this game exists...

Let's be honest, as it is now TERA sucks.

They are waiting for BHS to improve the game before releasing it. And it will be improved because a korean millionaire started sponsoring it.

It's also possible that they finally realized how many potential customers were angered by censoring and may try to reverse it somehow.

I'm so mad right now.

>>7694928
I think they're just retarded assholes who actually think they can make enough changes to make this a mainstream game. They will be lucky if it has as much success as Aion did.

>>7694940
Nope. I won't let you derail the thread.

>>7694943
Healy healy 5 dollah mistah!
I can boost yuu in instance all night long!

I'm thinking about registering for the Japanese open beta but I get the "NHN Japan Corp.(NHN) is offer this service for only Internet connection from Japan soil.".

Of course I can get through it with a proxy, but will I be able to download and play the game without one after this ?

>>7694958
You need a proxy for everything.

>>7694968
Well that's what I expected. I've never played an online game through a (free) proxy before, so I'm not sure how playable it would be. Maybe I'll give it a try anyway.

>>7694976
I meant you need one for the whole process of getting the game. Making an account and downloading it. You can disable it once you log in.

Are you fucking forgetting this is a PC game? We ain't no console fags, we can mod our games. Devs adding in pants for some lolis to keep the sperglords from getting mad won't affect us at all, we'll just mod the pants right off.

>>7694987

>>7694987

And apparently females wanting to play TERA also want others to see their loli panties.

>>7695060
Not the same guy, but seriously, get the fuck out. Stop trying to fit in.

What, did people actually expect this to be commercially successful? It what fantasy world? Its just some generic Korean MMORPG, they pump out a new one at least once a month. It doesn't matter at all when it gets released or what other games are coming out that time.

Its not competing with GW2, or WoW or anything else for that matter. They're not even in the same league. No one will know this game exists or care. /jp/ers will play it for a month until the loli pantsu loses to shit MMORPG game play.

>>7695060
i remember when you tripped on /v/ and posted screenshots of your wow character

>>7695062
>not the same guy
Do you really expect me to believe that?

>>7695067

It's one of the most anticipated games in Japan.

But yeah, it's obvious it will not be a mainstream success in the west. That's why EM should pander to the loli crowd.

>>7695080
Good point, I don't think your brain would be able to comprehend the fact that more than one person disagrees with your shitposting.

Why are MMO threads so good?

So I'm downloading the torrent of the JP OB installer, and I'll give that a try.

Then the OB will end and I'll forget about the game until sometime in 2013.

Seems like a plan.

>>7695156
Because they belong on /v/.

At least I will get some Elin porn after the japanese launch.

>>7695168
Though if doesn't speed up again maybe not. Currently chillin' at about 9kB/s when it was at 500 last night....

>>7695168
Took me 3 days to download the Korean client. It comes completely uncompressed.

>>7695243
I'm getting a glorious 2.3kB/s right now. I think it might take me longer than 3 days....

What this game really needs is more social events and pointless crap to do in general.

Everybody play it for hot girls, not for the action.

>>7695270
This is actually what a lot of moronic outsiders actually think.

Where is the Japanese tera-online site? I can't find it. Tera-online doesn't even have a Japanese wiki page. Do people in Japan care about the game?

http://tera.hangame.co.jp/download/

>Everybody play it for hot girls, not for the action.

This is actually my latest stance on MMOs. I'll pick the sexiest MMO, because then I know what I get. If I attempt to pick the one that is most fun, then I'm certain to end up with problems like "You are playing the wrong class to join our group." or "Your specced incorrectly, what kind of noob are you?"

Honestly, dressing up is the only thing you can do without developers ruining it. Except if they take a moment to ruin it before releasing the beta...

>>7695387
You sound like a major scrub.
Barbie online is the perfect dress up game for you! it even has other little girl players like yourself~

>>7695387
You should play superior western MMO, like Lord of the Rings Online. It even has a cosmetic system and a housing one.
It has little to none sexual content

This is going to take the better part of a decade to finish dling.

>>7695466
Start the download, as soon as you see 1MB done, turn off your proxy

>>7695479
Your right. Already got like, almost a GB done. Thanks.

Lineage II:
Best MMO ever made.

PSO2 looks better.

Janitor, why aren't you deleting these /v/ hotglue threads?

>>7695505
This is the truth!

>buying a game for eyecandy and not story or gameplay

RIP hip loli game. I was only joking about your 2012 release date in the other thread.

Glad im playing in the Korean and Japan(soon) version.

Screw the NA release.

>>7695512
Because Otaku Culture. Faggot.

d3, gw2, dota2, and too many to list. this is your choice in 2012 games? really? i was excited for this 2 years ago when it was relevant. this game was suppose to be a filler until the big hits came out, not a competitor with them.

>>7695533
Next thing you're going to tell me is that sion-style anime screencap spam is /jp/-related.

Why don't you outsiders go discuss this shit on your own board?

I'm sorry that you're so upset. Your opinion is worthless. Have a nice day.

>>7695570
Kindly, please do fuck off already.

>>7695579
>>7695580
And you fags wonder why /jp/ despises you. Enjoy your shitty mmo threads while you still can, because the new moderator is going to start deleting them as soon as he learns that they're full of anti NEET normals like you.

>>7695619
We'll see about that.

>>7695619
You seem fairly sure that the janitor isn't a normalfag himself.

>>7695619
Stop trying to fit in. There aren't many things as NEET-approved as MMOs.

I logged in once and changed the graphics settings then restarted. Now every time I try to log in it says I've failed logging in to many times and that I have to log in using a captcha. So it loads up the login page for hangame in IE, I log in, enter the captcha etc fine. But still cant log into the game because it keeps giving me the same message. So annoying.

>>7696059
call tech support.

>>7695505

I stopped playing that crap after one day.

>>7695619
>MMO's
>anti NEET

What? No seriously, what the fuck?

>>7696526
I played it back in the day, before WoW came out. I think I played it for a couple months. I remember how it took every bit of cash I earned from leveling to buy new weapons. Shitty shop weapons.

>>7696541
but then wow came out and made that game look silly. I tried playing it a few months ago, didnt get past the first room.

>>7696531
┐(￣ー￣)┌

Goddammit Japan, why is there still no Elin porn?

>>7695248
5 KB/s now, at 4.6% complete. What the fuck happened to my half a meg a second? ;_;

It'd probably be faster to download it the 'proper' way at this rate....

>>7696625
You are downloading it from Korea and you are competing against Nips who are also trying to get it.

>>7696631
I'm downloading it from a torrent with 3 seeds and about 20 peers.

True NEETs shit on the floor.

>>7696635
I do hope you are not downloading the Korean client so you can play the Japanse beta. Its not going to work.

But yeah, thats terrible speed for a torrent.

I gave up on the torrent; just getting it via Hangame now. It seems to be pretty fast, but sadly uncompressed.

Open beta doesn't start until the 8th (Jap time) anyways.

>>7696648
Nah, it is the JP beta client. It was going so well when I started downloading it....

http://www.monova.org/torrent/4643818/TERA_Online_JP_Beta_Client.html btw, for the torrent itself.

>>7696657
I have a bandwidth cap (lol NZ internet) so the torrent, being compressed, is a very nice alternative.

Or would be, if it wasn't being an ass.

>>7696666
So it seems it was a bug in the build of qBittorrent I was using. Switched to uTorrent for the moment, and getting a (relatively) happy 200kB/s.

>>7696662
It only took a few hours for me to DL the 25GB client from the Japanese site the proper way.

So what VPN are you guys using? PacketiX is failing to connect for me.

>>7697174
That's what I used.

I downloaded it via proxy few hundred kb/s... you need to login via proxy in launcher, but you can let the game connect directly. Participated in closed beta and created character for open beta yesterday, it still works. Any questions?

I can't seem to find a single working japanese proxy. Can someone help me with this?
I'm using proxycap, it worked with all games I've tried.
I also downloaded this PacketiX but I have absolutely no idea how this works.
Sorry for my incompetence.

>>7697549
Okay, ignore this post.
I downloaded the wrong program from PacketiX site.

>>7695520
what game is this?

From Lead Community Manager:

"Hi everyone,

just to clarify something. This decision was not made by Frogster for any marketing reason, the delay happened in order to allow further time to improve the existing game and add new content to it. It's not due to marketing/pr reasons or due to localisation of TERA.

Regards"

lolzwut. . .

>>7697891

Does that make any sense to anyone? it doesn't to me.

>>7694484
There's not much they can actually modify anyway.
But if they do
Is there any hope for private servers? especially based on the korean version and translated from there?

http://www.bluegartr.com/threads/105641-TERA-Online-Media?p=4728865#post4728865

>They did say the elin race will be having a gothic tights look with gothic panties look. The rest would be the same.

Japanese and Korean versions will also get those changes.

They said Elins were unfinished at the launch because they were the last race added.

>>7697937
>Then he shocked the crowed saying that over 10 million japan hangame accounts have been created

Well, shit...

Apparently the Korean version didn't have much grinding in the first place.

They won't even say what they're doing other than "adding content", and the last thing I saw that was new was achievements so fuck these guys.

I didn't want censored WoW with aiming, I wanted fucking Tera. I'm sure plenty of people agree and can't wait to see it fail along with Star Warcraft and Diablo: P2W.

>>7697941

Game will be a big success even if just 1 in 20 of those people actually buy it.

I knew it would do well in Japan.

But NA launch will be a disaster. It's already obvious.

>>7697974

It seems to me this whole censoring crap is a lie to fool loli haters.

Japanese and Korean versions will also be getting new outfits. EME will call them censored versions.

>>7697937
>They did say the elin race will be having a gothic tights look with gothic panties look.

Why?

I just wish they stopped beating around the bush and finally made an AAA massive budget MMO that was all just constant raping and fucking.

how many of you have/had the problem with logging in in the launcher ?
even if i input the login/pass correctly it will still say that its wrong..and i saw people here were talking that they made their character and are waiting for the 8th

>>7697999

Japan love gothic lolitas.

I honestly fear TERA will end up dead in a few months of release, I don't even mind the delay in release, most mmo's go through them, the biggest issue here is that both the US and EU market doesn't know shit about whats going on, they just don't tell anything besides we're working on it.
By the time the game is released most people will be playing SW:TOR and GW2 and the few of us that will be playing this (if they don't screw up our loli's) might see it die within a few months

>>7698011

TOR will fail. Alpha videos are pure shit.

>>7698024
I second this. Tested it twice. Boring, slow, WoW clone. 1 raid and 5 flashpoints. Still, Star Wars nerds and Biodrones will give them a lot of box sales, but it won't be a WoW killer at all.

I'll be having fun in GW2 anyway.

>>7698032

SW nerds hate prequels and all other new shit.

>>7698024
>TOR will fail
Stopped reading there. Tor is very secure. What are you talking about?

>>7698032
>WoWkiller

That term is a joke. People that have never played a video game in their entire lives now play WoW upwards of 8 hours a day. Nothing can compare with it, its not even in the category of games anymore.

It doesn't matter how good a game is, there is no competing with WoW anymore. That time came and passed. All these companies can do is leech out some of the niche crowds from WoW, like star wars nerds, or HARDCORE GAMERS with extreeeme pvp. 90% will go back to WoW anyway, or play both. To suggest anything could even have a slight impact on WoW is laughable.

>>7698032
>wow killer
>WoW
>having fun with GW2

>>7698060
Exactly. They made a WoW clone and one of the founders of Bioware (DLCware) said that MMOs that don't copy WoW fail. You can tell aswell. There's always retarded shits on /v/ trying to say how it will steal millions of WoW players, but seriously it has no chance. WoW has 2 more expansions anyway, to go along with its years of established content, polish, raiding and PvP.

>>7698024
>>7698039
Eh, I don't think so. You underestimate how many people still eat up that shit for whatever reason. Even though they hate the prequals and new shit, they still buy it and hold out hope, so unless its God awful they'll still end up playing it.

Even if its a failure it won't be to the extent that other recent MMOs have been because of a guaranteed player base.

I'm glad there's been much more bitching on the Tera forums lately. Hopefully En Masse realizes how fucking dumb they are.

Anyway, I'm still downloading the client and my friend already has it. He's had it working only one time without an error. The launcher tells him to log in to Hangame but it doesn't work. The website launcher tells him that he is not from Japan, even with a proxy and all regional and language settings changed to Japanese.

WoW is not popular because of this reason its popular because its so easy to grasp it has no complex UI, its quest are stright forward for the most part you know Kill 10 things, people have a panic attack sometimes when they have to go somewhere and click a item in their inventory because its abnormal.

WoW is just over all a easier game people pick it up and tada you are playing, no hour long UI set up, no What the hell does this button do? nothing like that its just here is what you do.

They have even made it so elementary now that when you choose your spec your locked in it till you have so many points in that tree or respec which is just stupid takes all customization and being creative away.

>>7698069
It's like he said, everyone expects MMOs to play like WoW, but how could you expect to compete with something by emulating it?

I think MMOs just need to be smaller scale somewhat, Such as having unique gameplay elements that draw a niche loyal crowd. As far as the player is concerned, people don't even want shitty WoW casuals to leek over into other games anyway. Can you imagine playing Tera with all the WoW housewives and normals? Fuck that.

>>7697891
>Fist he appoligized about the disaster that the Korean version is in. He said that in no way is this version acceptable and has made changes to his company to make sure things will be different.

You know your game is shit and is a failure when the CEO of the company that made it apologizes to people for how shitty is. Pic related.

>>7698089
That and simply because of what it is. Everyone has heard of it. Its popular like Coke or Pepsi is popular, they just exist and you drink them because they're there, not because of how amazing they are. Like I said I know countless people that have never touched a video game but will play WoW for hours on end. It might as well be a social networking game at this point.

>>7697937
>They did say the elin race will be having a gothic tights look with gothic panties look. The rest would be the same.
So they want most of the current players in Japan to quit too?
No wonder this game bombed in Korea, it's being run by idiots.

>>7698118
I don't think so.

>>7698119
There's no issue if the tights look good.

Japan fucking loves stockings, y'know.

I was never going to play Tera anyway, because my shitty laptop can't even come close to running it. But fuck these guys anyway.

>>7698138
It's the fact that they want to make changes at all that pisses people off. I love stockings but they need to optional, not forced.

>>7698142
This.

>>7698119

Sexy stockings + sexy panties.

There is nothing to complain about.

>>7698138
No, I'm pretty sure people don't like it when you change how their characters look after they've been playing them for some time.

Not to mention this doesn't make any fucking sense, gothic tights? Aren't Elin supposed to be some goddesses of nature or something?

>>7697386

Is the game actually any good?

>>7698169

They are fairies. The kind that would rip your dick off if you stepped on a flower they liked.

Any porn yet?

>>7698187

There is at least one doujin announced for C80.

>>7698060

WoW's gameplay is shitty, but game has a ton of staying power.

You always have a lot of shit to do, and there are tons of non-combat oriented events or bonuses.

That is the true reason behind WoW's success.

>>7698007
That's proxy's fault. I had the same problem before, I subscribed to xroxy's tree trial to check if it'll work.. and it did, lurk moar for another pr0xy

An for all haters that claim that this is a wow-clone, it's not. RIFT was a wow clone, with added graphics and rifts. Game requires some dexterity from you, gameplay is actually very enjoyable, can't say for how long though, before you get bored. Also PVP is awesome.

>>7698221
>events
I know, I had a friend who was addicted to collecting that shit. Blizzard has a lot of resources so they are constantly handing out unique pets and mounts and things for special events that involve grinding multiple quests for 2 weeks straight.

>>7698089
I think you are confusing easy with polished.

WoW has more default UI options than 10 korean games combined.

WoW has more quest diversity than 10 Western Competitor games.

Its popular because its well made. Id be playing it right now if Blizzard didnt fuck me over and force all my toons to wear snow boots.

Go back to /v/. Your kind isn't wanted around here.

>>7698380

If TERA wants to be successful they must add things like that too.

Especially since apparently around 25% of players will be female.

>>7698378
WoW is successful because it's the most generic MMO you could possibly make, and steals EVERYTHING from its predecessors.

Actualy, I have to look for some proxy for myself.
How do I PacketiX? Do I have to pay?

>>7698433
k, I managed somhow, but the app crashes whenever I try to install the VPN adapter (win7 x64)

>>7698467
>original
>WoW

Nope. Not one thing. The only unique thing about WoW is that it's the most generic MMO in existence.

>>7698493
Oh my, oh my. I know it's a popular sentiment, but WoW does so many things right that dismissing it out of hand just makes you look foolish. Say something like "it's cynically manipulative of people's time and energy" or "it's attempt at mass appeal shutters its excellence in any one area" etc. But implying that Blizzard doesn't know how to design a game is so laughable that only a fanboy would believe it.

Now, Blizzard certainly structures its game completely around getting you to keep playing rather than getting you to keep having fun, so I do see where you're coming from. At the same time, this is the business model for all MMOs, so hoping for something different from a big budget korean MMO is going to leave you dissapointed.

>>7698600
install version 3. its only in japanese.

version 2 would always crash for me.

>>7698641
Nothing you blathered on about changes the fact that it's the most generic MMO in existence, steals everything halfway decent from its historical predecessors, and is really shitty.

>>7698640
Everyone attempting to copy it doesn't mean it's generic.

That aside, people really SHOULD stop trying to copy it. I'd appreciate a good mmo, attempting to copy wow isn't going to get me that.

Whelp I managed to log in an create a character. I need a new computer case though, My graphics card was at about 85 degrees on low settings at the character creator.

I'm stuck.
I downloaded the client, registered on hangame etc. but when I try to login with the launcher, it gives me pic related message.
I assume it's something like, "please login on the webpage" or something like that, which I already did like 100 times still I get this.
What do I do now?

>>7699116
You failed the login too many times so you have to confirm your account again by logging in on some other page. I don't know what page they are referring to because I don't play this game.

>>7699116
Yea it was doing that to me too last night. When I tried it again today it worked. Not sure if it's because I waited a while, or if it's because I'm using a different VPN.

>>7699116
I get the same problem. I think it's because too many other people are using the same proxy. I really wish there were more proxies.

>>7699154
>>7699150
see
>>7699121

>>7698645
that helped, thanks
but they seem to be blocking it
>>7699150
What VPN are you using?

>>7699259
I can read the Japanese. It doesn't help. It just redirects you log in with a captcha but that still doesn't solve the problem when I was having it.

>>7699275
I'm using VPNSecure now or whatever it's called.

>>7699315
Thanks, 4$... I guess I'll buy it if there will be no working proxy on the launch day.

Also, before I couldn't log in launcher or site, only the page with captcha worked, but unless you have japanese OS you can't launch the game from their website

>>7699315
Why does a trial for that VPN costs money? I thought trials are for trying out things before spending money.
I don't have my credit card activated, so I'm pretty much fucked.

>>7699315
Log in on the website as directed, then launch the game through the website instead of the launcher.

>>7699443
You can't. Unless you have a Japanese OS or something.

>>7699409
I don't know. There might be better ones out there. I was just too lazy to look around.

That one 8080 proxy isn't working for me anymore. Does anyone have an alternative JP proxy that works? I just tried like 10 of them that didn't work.

I'm that guy who uploaded/is seedboxing the TERA client 7z ( http://www.tokyotosho.info/details.php?id=434720 ) if anyone cares.

Set up your proxies like this to get pass the loop of infinite captchas.

>>7699986
Got one. 219.122.44.250:3128

Try setting up your proxies like this to get pass the captcha loop.

I've got a problem where the Game Start button on the launcher just doesn't start the game at all. I only managed to launch the game once and that was the first and only time.

>>7700008
When I hit Game Start, it tells me to log in using the page.

>>7700021
Did you login at the launcher first before pressing Game Start?

>>7700021
Oh and the login never loads.

I just got it loaded. Time to make my character, thanks.

If they'll notice all those strange connections and fix stuff/block proxies - I'm gonna rape you all

Anyone have any idea what this says?

So, the changes to Elin are global?

That means it's not really censorship. EME just implied it's censorship to shut up whiners.

Those are some really good news.

>>7700175
No, stop believing things you hear on 4chan. There are new outfits being added for all the races, the current ones are being censored for the NE version only.

>>7700185

We still know nothing.

They are supposedly working on this censoring for months and there are still no pictures or anything.

>>7700190
Of course their are no pictures. They have already inflamed the community enough by saying they were planning to censor them. Every time they say anything on the subject it just pisses people off again. But for good reason, censorship is bad.

>>7700192

I can't wait for the shitstorm when designs are out.

>>7700207
Exactly. Personally I dont really blame them for whoring them selves out to the wrong demographics, money corrupts people. However, I only care about number 1. If they took the high road and they them selves made available an optional patch to revert the changes for people who care, I would have the utmost respect for them. However, they wont and with their string of horrible ideas so far, I think they are going to kill this game.

>>7700207
Meh, even bad publicity is good for Tera. Tera will be known as "that game that got badly censored in US/EU."

>>7700215
Its a damn shame to. The Koreans have put a lot of work and effort in to this game yet it has huge flaws. They are trying so hard, yet they keep trying to kill their creation.

>>7698659
I hope you mean the entire genre is shitty, it all comes down to the preference of having shiny shit or unusually tasty shit, WoW being the latter.

>>7700216
No, actually thats not good publicity. The people they are trying to attract with that sort of publicity wont ever hear it or care if they did. The only people that will know are the people that would otherwise make up the core player base.

Whatever, I'm just interested in the gameplay.
Fanservice is merely an extra.

>>7700254
You may change your mind when your Elin Priest blows down, presenting her crotch to you every time she casts her main nuke. ITS GLORIOUS.

There is no reason you can have both my man.

>>7700259
I'll won't conplain, that's for sure
Wanna try this game, and that Continent of the Ninth, might be good

Anyone having problem with GameGuard? Mine doesn't connect for a few hours now ...

>>7700285
Well I can tell you that the game play is good. I really enjoyed playing it, even on a Korean server where I could not understand anything at all. The biggest problems it has currently is the PVP system is lack luster and their is little end game content. Granted these are rather big problems for the game play but what is there is rather good. However, it has a long way to go if it thinks is going to survive with the lineup that is headed our way. Blade and Soul, ToR, Diablo 3, GW2.

Tera is the only full action MMO out of all those. I think it has a chance.

Dem Coreans and their total lack of endgame in every game they ever make....

>>7700313
They put all their work in to making the game long and grindy they have no budget left for when people get there. I also think its Lineage 1 and 2 still influencing them. Those games had almost no end game content but the PVP system provided all the end game they needed.

Now these new corean games are trying to do both, have little to no pvp yet still have lack luster end game content. They need to look to a certain company, and as them selves, What would Blizzard Do?

How big is the world in TERA compared to Wow?

>>7700319
>the PVP system provided all the end game they needed.
And that's all I want.
Lineage 3 when?

>>7700325
Its not even far to compare a new game to a game thats been out for 6 years with 3 expansions. Id say Tera is about the same size as Azeroth.

>>7700259

Horse riding Elins are the most boner inducing animation in the history of video games.

Anyone else having issues with PacketiX VPN? It "connects" then immediately disconnects again and refuses to reconnect even after ten retries.

Maybe I should just find one of those $5/month dealies....

>>7700338
Here I thought I was the only one who appreciated a hippy little girl straddling a power beast.

She's asking for it so hard.

>>7700347
the ground is so flat, i didn't expected to see this.

>>7700351

Fantasy engineering.

>>7700351
Its a city square... Did you expect a volcano or something?

>>7700357
no, more relief, i don't see any little cavity between the slabs.

>>7700366
While small details made a huge difference. I would hope that rather than making cavities between each brick in the game they would put their efforts towards more end game content and pvp.

>>7700259

Goddammit...

I wanted to play a sorc, after watching priest animations I'm no longer sure.

>>7700400
The sorcerer does have Explosion Array, which is fucking awesome. However, yeah, the Priest does have some amazing attacks. She works very well solo and still has healing to ensure she always get a group invite.

I am undecided which has the best casting animations, Priest or Mystic. Check out the mystic as well, shes just as good as the priest.

>>7700402
Which one casts faster?

>>7700402
The Mystic sort of swivels her ass when shes casting her main nuke, shes also got this nut busting aoe spell she throws down. They both have a targeted heal, where they go in to a sort of ninja run stance, I dont even have to tell you whats wonderful about that stance.

How popular is the official japanese TERA forum?

With 10 million people registered I guess it's really crowded isn't it?

>>7700403
I dont understand your question.

If its a question about their main Nuke, The priests main nuke is a strait shooting missle attack that moves slow and can easly be dodged. At the same time she gets a golden dart attack that hits 3 times with increasing damage, this attack is also an auto tracking attack. You can combo the two for a little burst damage.

The mystics main nuke is an auto tracking attack that flies faster. She doesnt get a secondary nuke and so she has nothing to combo with.

Both fire at he same speed, Priest has more options, Mystic has a jack of all. As for the rest of their spells, most spells are instant cast. Some spells have casting animations, none of them are long. There is virtually no difference between them.

>>7697937
>and they will add 2 new dungeons instances, "House of Vanpiru" "Muslim evil lair,"
>"Muslim evil lair,"

How hard is to setup a proxy and play on the JP Beta?

Just wondering if I should give a try this weekend.

>>7700415
Alright, you've answered my question, thanks.

>>7700418
Near as I can tell the hardest part is getting patch the Nip captcha. Its pretty much impossible unless you can type japanese.

Awright, got myself a character made and all sorted for OBT start.

What servers are people on? I went with アルン since it was the first PvE server on the list with space (not game enough to try a PvP server in a language I don't understand fully).

>>7700415

How is the sorcerer compared to them?

>>7700423
Captcha is easy. Hard part is finding a proxy which works and doesn't have any other people using it.

I keep getting this message, can anybody tell me what it says?

>>7700451
Didnt play it much. It has a couple more attacks than they do. Has some really hard hitting spells later in the game. Main nuke is a fireball, Flys faster than the priests does but I do not think its auto tracking. As far as style goes, its not even a contender.

There are still only 10ppl battlegrounds and 5ppl dungeons?

They need to make more content for bigger groups.

And some seasonal events.

Btw, is there fishing in this game?

>>7700450
I chose whatever the first one on the list was.

>>7700462
I watched a gameplay vid of an Elin Sorc fighting some kind of giant lizard centaur thing with two axes (it was pretty boss) and they certainly seemed to have plenty of style in that.

>>7700463
>They need to make more content for bigger groups.
No. Hard single-party content is always more fun than the boring logistics exercise that large raids are.

And besides, this game has clipping. There won't be room for twenty people to surround a boss.

>>7700470
Sounds like something a failure at raiding would say.

Small parties are fine for a quicky but for a long night of game play, raiding beats it to death.

>>7700467
>gameplay vid

Sounds like you are an expert. Guess you dont need me.

We should form our own guild. Call ourselves 「阿呆の画人」 or something.

>>7700475
Raiding fills up a night because it's slow and boring, not because it's so fun you don't want to stop. I ran all the WoW raids up through Zul Gurub before I quit, and none of them were as fun as, for example, Dire Maul.

>>7700479
>>7700462
>didn't play it much
>expert

>>7700481
>画人
Fuck.

I meant 外人.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sltjhZa_jY0

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKWEx6-Mlrs

Sorcerers also have great animations if you ask me.

>>7700486
ZG was an entry level raid, dude. Saying you got up to it means not a damn thing.
It was actually fun at least. If you ever tried to do a 40 man raid it's a big pile of shit and more shit, because getting 39 idiots to follow simple instructions is impossible.

>>7700486
>Zul Gurub
I laughed pretty hard. Sounds like you know about as much about raiding as you do about Tera, Elite youtube video watcher.

5-player content is the best. Any more than that is either mindless "hitting the pinata" or way too complicated for a random group to do. It's too much work to get together a large coordinated group when needed.

>>7700470

10 man raids were the best thing in WoW. 5 man dungeons is not enough for me.

And there really should be battlegrounds with 20+ players.

>>7700486
>I pugged a raid
>I know what raiding is.

>>7700499
Yet each high population server in wow has 40-50 raiding guilds each. Apparantly, its not that hard.

>>7700495
Molten Core and BWL were both in the game before Zul Gurub, so I consider ZG to be "after" those two. Maybe the game's changed since then, I don't really give a fuck. Point is they all sucked ass.

>>7700503
10 is still too many players for myself. I have around 5-7 friends willing to play at any time, so we always have to pug the rest. It never works out. 5 players is perfect as long as the difficulty is very high.

>>7700506
Sounds like you were a failure of a raider, exactly my point.

>>7700512
How exactly does completing all endgame content constitute "failing"?

>>7700514
>all end game content
>Zul Gurub

>>7700515
At the point that I quit WoW, there were exactly three raids. Molten Core, Black Wing Lair, and Zul Gurub. Ahn Qiraj was still closed.

So yes, it was all end game content.

>>7700509

That's what guilds are for.

>>7700517
Thats pretty cool, Mr Youtube raider.

>>7700522
What the fuck is your problem?

I must be tired if I'm taking this guy's bait.

>>7700523
Not the guy you've been arguing with, but using any of the early classic raids in relation to modern content is just silly. The only difficult things in classic wow were
a) Getting 40 people together
b) Gearing them

The content was a joke compared to the stuff they've been pushing out since TBC. I do agree that it was passing time then, but I wouldn't say that's certainly the case now, though it may be for some fights.

>>7700523
You come here trying to pretend you know shit and all you have is Zul Gurub and youtube videos. You are pathetic.

>>7700530
Even if that is the case, do you honestly expect a Korean developer to be capable of putting out raid content that is more than just "this guy has a lot of health so you need 40 people to hurt him enough"?

>>7700535
And that would differ a lot form "This guys has a little more heath, you will need 5 people to hurt him"?

>>7700542
Not much admittedly, but a least you won't have the logistical crap surrounding it. Being able to take four random guildies into an instance at a whim is a lot better than having to schedule a proper raid group.

Why are WoW players such assholes?

>>7700549
Why are you such a shitty poster? How did you get off my filter list anyways. On you go.
>>7700542
Perhaps if you like easy content. I find a game become boring quickly if there is no challenge in it.

>>7700548

Not really. MMO needs staying power. You must feel that there are still things to accomplish.

5 man dungeons get boring fast.

Because raids are hard to organize they are challenging.

This game really needs random crap to do. Fishing, social events, seasonal events, contests, etc.

I bet at least 1/3 of japanese players will be girls playing it only because of great female models. They will need non combat crap to keep them interested.

>>7700566
They don't get boring if they have proper difficulty. They can be just like raids with less players.

>>7700592

Many people prefer bigger groups. 10 man content is a must.

As are bigger battlegrounds.

I'm sure they will be adding them in the future.

>>7700592
There is no such thing as proper difficulty. 5 man content is always going to be easier and always going to get boring faster. You are asking for some imaginary thing that you think just has not been made yet because no one sees a market for it.

>>7700618
>5 man content is always going to be easier

And why would that be? In 5-man stuff people actually need to know how to play. In raids they just need to know how to follow orders or spam a set rotation.

>>7700642
Well ill tell you since you have little to no raid experience. In a raid since there is more people. As there are more people so are the number of possible jobs those people need to do. You cant make complex and interesting encounters with 5 people. Hence the reason no one has made complex and interesting 5 man content that didnt become a grind after the first day.

>>7700618
They are easier simply because half the difficulty in raids is finding enough people who aren't retarded. Getting together 25 or 40 competent people who are also the required classes and roles is a pain in the ass. The actual content is not difficult. And yes, 5-man content can be MUCH more difficult than it already is.

Can't wait.

>>7700651
No it cant. All 5 man content like all solo content will become a grind soon as someone posts a strategy for it.

>>7700651
Heroic shadow labs and magisters terrace were probably the pinnacle of 5mans as far as I'm concerned. Shattered halls was a pain at lower gear levels too.

5mans are only hard if you end up with a hunter you're not acquainted with.

Why are you fools still talking about difficulty? All that matters is that it is fun to repeat.

>arguing about what group size is better for instanced gear grind autistic faggotry
>ignoring that this shit is what ruined the MMO genre

>>7701018
What, you enjoyed soloing in an mmo? That is even more repetitive and grindy. At least dungeons have interesting bosses. Are you sure you aren't just mad at having to play with people in an online game?

>>7701034
>I've never played an MMO before WoW
MMOs used to be more than just collecting worthless equipment for the purpose of collecting more worthless equipment. I know that's probably a hard concept for you spoon-fed theme park babies to grasp.

>>7698220
Thanks a ton, if you're still around.

>>7701034
Are you one of those guys who doesn't read the quest and just completes the objective?
;_;

>>7701095
GL with reading in Korean / Japanese

>>7701133
Some of us can actually read Japanese.

>>7701095
I did this with EE.

>>7701151
But most can't

>>7701180
And who cares about MMO quest text?

>>7701064
So like ragnarok online you mean? or everquest? No, go on, I'm interested in this MMO you imagined.

The only working proxy I found doesn't work anymore. Does anyone have another one?

>>7701207
RO dungeons are the best dungeons. No baby instancing shit just run into a dungeon with everyone else and kill shit and try not to die. Someone steals your items because you're too busy? Too bad. Someone runs past you and lets a shitton of monsters that were following start attacking you instead? Hope you can kill them. Need another party member? Everyone who can fight is already here.

Officially 'censor' lolis.

Un-officially release a 'fan-made' uncensor patch on the side

Everyone profits

>>7694996

>I want everyone to see my loli pantsu.

I want that on a t-shirt.

Unfortunately I would not have the balls to actually wear it in public.

>>7701227
I have this problem also.
Bumping for advice.

I cannot use a VPN service either.

>>7701236
Oh, the memories... /sob

>>7701265
>Public

Out.

>>7701236

But that's just generic open world.

why is this so gay ?
first the launcher goes gay on me and puts me in infinite login loop, then im trying to run the game from the site and it gives me this (chrome/ie)
why does the world work against me ;_;

>>7701227
>>7701266
>>7701499

You can't run the game until the beta starts, character creation event is over.

Jpn beta will be the same thing that is running in korea right now or there will be some japan exclusive content?

>>7701635
> japan exclusive content?

>>7701644

/rape command?

>>7701517
>character creation event is over.
Wait, what?
So.. you can't create a character now?
If that's so.. that's retarded.

>>7701657

Beta starts in like 3 days anyways.

>>7701663
What does that have to do with anything?
What difference does it make If it starts?

It is an OPEN BETA so you should be able to create a character and play whenever, as long as it is in the Beta periods.

>>7701667
I had no idea we have such retards here...

Participants from the closed beta will receive gift items for their main characters, but the event for creating your main character is over, beta starts on monday, get over it.

This game needs more clothes.

And housing. With NPC maids.

>>7701676
I only asked for a reason as to why you couldn't create a character.

So, you called me a retard because I didn't know the server had hit maximum population limit.

Logic, you have it.

Also, given that image >>>/a/

>>7701691
No, you are a retard because of that, you are a retard for so many more reasons.

>>7701691
I'm calling you a retard for failing to read the info on their website

>>7701733
My proxy failed to connect, not only to the client DL but to the site.

So you are calling me a retard for not being able to check the website for said info?
Grow up.

The only place I could find info related to the end of the creation event was on the hangame site, which I only just connected to, due to my proxy problem.

That was obviously in moon, which I cannot read, but that's something easy to get around, unlike the aformentioned issues.

>>7701747
Why are you trying to play the game in a language you don't understand?

And either way, it's your fault for not being able to read so don't complain about the way the open beta works.

>>7701499
dirty gaijin IP, need a proxy to pass

>>7701757
>My proxy failed to connect, not only to the client DL but to the site.
>it's your fault for not being able to read so don't complain about the way the open beta works.
Well you obviously can't read English.
I stated that the language of the site was not an issue, you can easily get around a problem like that, my problem was not being able to connect to the site.
>Why are you trying to play the game in a language you don't understand?
You don't need to read anything in a game to have fun. Trial and error.
I also have friends, from here, which were going to play, they can read moon.
Not to mention that around 80% of the people who were going to play Tera outside of JP more than likely can't read moon either.
