Hi Sgforums.
I don't think many Singaporeans have heard of Tera Online yet,
especially with other famous titles like Diablo 3 and Guildwars 2
coming out.
Tera online is a new P2P K-mmo like a combination of Dragon Nest
(Combat mechanic and Pve), Aion (Graphics), WoW (Easy
Levelling/Questing) and Perfect World (Pvp).
The following are excerpts from their website [ http://tera-europe.com/ ]
TERA takes the fight beyond whack-a-mole
monotony with enhanced aiming, dodging, and tactical timing to
create intense and rewarding combat. Unlike other MMOs, you can use
your controller or keyboard and mouse to control the action like
never before. With all the depth you expect from a traditional MMO,
plus the intense gratification of action
combat, TERA changes all the rules.
Experience an Action MMO beyond "point and click" where
skill, position, timing, and aim determine success in combat.
Play seven character races and eight classes. Battle
hundreds of monsters throughout 80+ zones and embark on thousands
of quests in a game world rich in history and lore.
Advanced enemy AI and enormous bosses deliver a more
intense and engaging combat experience.
Explore a world filled with breathtaking visuals
powered by Unreal Engine 3.
In a faction-free world, all players can impact the
community as well as the social, political, and economic structures
of TERA.
I'ved tried the beta and it's not bad. Reasonable fees, with some
website selling quite cheap. You will have to play on EU servers
though, as NA is IP blocking Asia. So investing in a proxy service
like WTFast or Battleping is nearly a must, though I know some who
play without just fine. Members of the Supreme
Society guild can also make use of our guild tunnel to get
around 100-200ms ping, abit unstable but free.
What I can say is, if you liked the graphics of Aion and eastern
style characters or like Dragon nest action and open world pvp, but
don't like to grind, this game is for you. Can be improved, but
still great for those that are sick of the standard MMO
gameplay.
At the very least, I thought this game deserved some awareness from
local gamers who might have misunderstood what it's about or did
not notice it considering the other big titles coming out this
spring.
Also, if any of you decide to play on Tera EU, we have a big and
still growing SEA community on the Essenia PVP server with 20+
active players already. Our guild is Supreme
Society and we're also working with Circle of
Kakis, an established multi-gaming guild.
We're focused on team based PVE and PVP (Indoor and outdoor,plan to
control territories later)
We want dedicated and fun players who can help each other out
and join in guild activities. We are as much about socializing as
progression.
