My Reaper Kizania.

Quote from Glyd

I don't really care how faces look, you don't see them.

I don't spend time making characters anyway, I play on 0-1 settings so it's not going to look good to me whether I spend 5 seconds or 5 hours making it.

I tend to take my time, using fraps to screenshot the config screens, since usually by the time I'm done, the game will disconnect upon clicking create, always been this way with Tera for me, it seems to have a limit of time in which you have to login or create a character.

Though with Elins, to me they usually look either ridiculous, or all the same, even with my Reaper above I can hardly see the difference from a preset Reaper face, even though I used the sliders quite a bit.

My NA Reaper, made her today to try it out, I have to say her story from 50 to 58 is a little underwhelming, I had expected the mini-comic Enmasse posted about some Lok worshipping mercenaries to tie into it, but it didn't.

I have a hard time imagining a < lvl 60 suffering from th elot crash(considering it affected people soloing the dungeon and all).
You don;t need ilvl 153 for mc hm, you need it to im for mc hm and I haven't noticed that dungeon being IM heaven.
How is you not being able to do smth their fault exactly?

But the people who can go there will drop more regent so you can buy it cheaper. That'll more than make up for those 2 nexuses you missed.

So when the server went on the frits, only MCHM instances were affected?

Everyone could just continue playing? I wasn't totally stuck in char select, my club time continuing to tick away?

The only ones compensated, are the ones capable of running MCHM, that isn't their fault, but it sure is a bitter pill to swallow when the rest of us are basically told to shut up and continue flinging money at them.

Bye bye Raven and good luck with future endeavors.

Yeah, and nothing is better for business than a bunch of angry and dissappointed customers, who don't want to give you their money because you screwed them over. I really don't understand GF's logic here. There's so much potential with stuff like this and it's almost like they decide they just wanna mess it up.

Never underestimate the willingness to buy.

Even most of those claiming they won't ever give GF money again will find themselves spending money again to get something they want, I've seen in other games that have the typical ''locked box that needs a cash shop key to open'' that usually, those are the best selling items despite most of the community bitching about them, especially if the boxes contain highly sought after prizes, which isn't really the case here in TERA.

Imagine if those boxes contained costumes obtainably only through these boxes, or hell, the maid outfits, the sales of the strongbox keys would skyrocket.

Also, always remember, the people screaming the hardest on the forum are always the minority, most of an MMO's player base never even visits the forum.

MMO publishers/devs don't look at the screaming angry forum users to decide whether or not a ''lockbox'' so to call it is successful, they look at statistics, how many keys are bought on a daily basis, how many of these boxes are opened, same with the Elin box and the previous limited edition Easter box.

I have found that the boxes tend to spawn in areas with mobs, and out of about 150 boxes have only found 1 near a BAM. I have searched many maps and channel, and probably spent over 24 hours in total looking for these boxes. This was my first event in TERA ... and probably my last. I did get the Lioness mount, but I also now have an entire bank tab full of useless fireworks, and another bank tab full of honker glasses and stupid party hats.

For other events I would suggest increasing the spawn rate by a lot, and giving players chances for either high value items (i.e. masterwork alkahest, or semi-enigmatic scrolls), or some sort of credits that could be cashed in for items bound to account (cannot trade, or put in guild bank).

The fireworks are nice, for one or two goes, but I am going to probably vendor all of them now as I need my bank space back. Why create a situation where so many useless items are giving away. In the beginning I thought it was great ... "Oooooh, fireworks, 900g on the broker seems right", and now there are hundreds of them on for 1g.

Ironically, what you suggest is how it was before this event.

The Santa event back in December was exactly right, a lot of spawning and the boxes kept you literally addicted to finding them with all that you could possibly get from them.

Buuut, Tera is F2P now,that by default means that all droprates are lowered, especially in events, after all, money needs to be earned.

Thank you for the solution, Raven.

Hello, someone has tell that i don't has the "receive Newsletter" turn yes.... i has from account creation turned it Yes. and still not code... but there's ticked answer and ill explain it with gameforge support

Lolwutermelon?

I still fail to understand why they didn't do one of these with Easter.

The legacy of free to play.

Replace the CMs that may have gotten a little bit too attached to the game and community (and may thus be problematic by giving a damn) during the P2P days with fresh new and professional CMs who never really show themselves unless they absolutely have to.

Say, have we actually had any CM/GM organized events at all lately?

The last I remember was when I was still leveling my first character back in September or October on Essenia.

Well, this is disappointing.

I had expected that we'd be hunting for eggs in maps or something similar to Egg Thieves and Santa events, I can already see the negative influence of F2P, events like that replaced with ''buy this limited box naow!!!'' events..

Sorry, no money from me.

Okay, nice.

So, when will we Veterans get some appreciation in the form of that Argon Horse?

Or have we been forgotten already, you know, those people paying every month that got you guys this far?

Quote from Raven;2327117

Hello,

first of all, we don't open new servers until there is really a need to open one and this still is the truth. The population on Killian was very close to the maximum over the weekend. Some more players and a server queue would be active again, therefore we decided to open up another PvP server now. The population on all servers increased since the f2p announcement and changed trial. Therefore we decided to make those changes, first of all additional space is needed for new players (numbers are going up on a daily base) and the realm pool changes should help to improve the performance for dungeons and battlegrounds for all servers and players.

As we mentioned the numbers increased heavily and it is most likely that they will increase more and more in the upcoming weeks and when we go F2P in February.

Regards

That may be true in a few months but right now this realm pool thing is going to kill Killian's instance matching.
