    tera pvp in a nutshell...


    korean players don't care for pvp and devs dont give a fk about the rest of the world


    thus all the good pvp content was removed and what we got as replacement was dumbed down soloq bgs and unbalanced zerg fiesta cu


    that tera battle arena is more dead than bless online and it died in 5regions and will die on 2 consoles in 5 more regions just for the laughs! its an absolute disgrace and a stain on moba genre and those idiots at bluehole think players will eat that shit up and buy duck costumes for some noname story characters? story in tera is a badly written fanfic fetch quest since vm2.

    I'd rather play one of the 5 mobile tera elin cash grab games that they milked weebs for money instead of that tba


    just play something else for pvp or wait for elyon because all of us mmorpg players are beat down dogs who still need their addiction fix from some game and tera is running pretty damn dry past few years.



    ps: was pretty hilarious watching Atmorph trying to sell that battle arena as fun content to play...

    I haven't heard a lie that good since "there are hot singles in your area"

    soon you'll have tera battle arena lulxd

    better login on the day patch hits because you will never get qued in after that 1st day again.


    i wonder why all pvp players quit...



    we've all been crying in forums and every stream for some pvp content to be added back and we get shit on

    there's a dev comment saying the damage is reduced by around 25% and maybe that excludes def increase

    not sure if that's enough


    also they say they will monitor the updates so i guess another change in 2months

    The correct answer to tera being dead is tera2.


    Even if the best patch for pvp and pve was released it could never revive tera to what it was even few years ago.


    pvp as competitive content has been dead since gunner patch and completely killed with everything else being deleted. there is simply no way to revive it from what it has become and how badly it made players feel when they quit. tera's reputation as a pvp game is ruined.


    Right now tera sits in the "fun" zone for pve players who want instant content with 4 other friends or randoms to grind for items.


    Tera devs have killed all forms of RPG elements, social aspects and guild content just to keep players grinding for items and keep engaged with the pve combat

    and that's what tera does best, the combat... and that's all there is left.


    Tera is also only run by small team, that is obvious from lack of quality assurance and content updates.

    Thus all they can do is add time sinks to the game with new mechanics and sell fixes for them like ep, cards, partners, skill advancements, leveling to 70 etc and all pve tryhards eat it up to farm those top 1-2 dungeons faster


    As-long as this cycle works tera servers will stay up, but there is no chance in hell it will get better.

    that's due to budget that's given to tera developers by the bluehole corporation.




    I loved this game and want the best for this ip but you gotta face facts, put your emotions aside and look at things objectively.


    If you enjoy tera as i do sometimes then keep playing, not like anyone listens to us.

    ""tera pvp revolution made in 2020 running on buggy mmoprg netcode developed in 2011 with 100% of the assets copy pasted and all running on breathtaking unreal engine 3"



    this thing is a slap in the face for anyone who has enjoyed pvp and stuck to tera since all relevant pvp content was deleted with removal of crusades years ago.


    the main thing to take away from this is:

    "we gave you pvp, go to this new game" and "nobody likes this new game pvp so no new pvp content to the mmo"


    i give this game less than 1month of relevancy and less than 1 year of servers being up...

    yes very smart Broxy devs...

    anyway what he says does make sense, i have no faith that bluehole would fix code to run smoother on 64bit


    but what i'm hoping is fixes on texture load freeze due to maxed 3.2gig ram and blurry textures pretty much everywhere


    tera costumes are 512x512 and they get blurred x3 lower just come on

    i'm sure they want that because archeage unchained and blade&soul is making engine optimizations


    ofcourse in theory it should be only better for everyone if tera runs 64bit but knowing bluehole they will fk it up and release it broken


    pvp content when?

    they listen right? reduced material and gold cost but gear still breaks and downgrades same as before and dont mention pvp at all?


    it's all damage control changes to things devs added to be annoying on purpose to make cash shop p2w appealing, they didn't listen to anything


    they didn't even increase blue feedstock droprates or make them tradeable, wtf! they still expect us to do 1h of dailies for 2-4 feedstock every day.


    this patch wont change anything in anyones mind, you need to try harder gf/bluehole

    "hey lets go que pve" -fine

    "hey lets go que pvp" -wtf u stupid? think of the soloquers


    afk win/loss happens regardless of parties queing, its just the games fault for putting only parties vs only soloq like it used to back with fraywind


    i'm not saying ppl should get motivated and everyone needs to pt que. right now nobody is motivated for any type of pvp


    5man pt abuse? afk when friends not on same side? its almost as if ppl either play with friends or they don't play at all and quess what, bgs barely pop with everyone being non competitive and everyone who was has quit playing long time ago


    20v20 cs premade.... you tell me what was the point of that? they made it give 0 rewards or ranking, i personally did it 3-4 times and every time ppl stop after 1 game because it either felt pointless or their ego got hurt.


    i don't rly get your last statement. solo ppl have no choice who they play with or against? no sh*t


    going as solo vs premades? what's the problem? that those premades coordinate their skills and get more damage done than the solo ppl flailing around? isn't that the whole point of teaming up?


    nice to be carried by premades? you're talking as if a premade of 5 is completely unstoppable and decides wins or loses in corsair. any actually good premades quit years ago since fraywind rankings were deleted,

    because nobody cares for gold rewards over competitive ladder if they're "good".


    right now there isn't 5 good players to even attempt to make a good premade for bgs.

    everyone is either enemies or demotivated.

    i couldn't get scared over any premades i would face anywhere because of this, no premade could be consistently way better than everyone else.

    it's only incompetent randoms that scare me and that has always been same in every game ever.



    also haven't corsair been "press tab at start to see who wins" for the past 5 or so years?

    plus you agree that the current matching is horrible so how is getting ppl maybe queing as parties gona ruin what's already broken and bad


    bgs are dead because all these backwards patches that make the game less fun. we've tried sync que but it has less than 50% chance getting with 1 friend that you wanna get with

    combat is still good that rewards teamplay and rankings are here even if they barely matter...


    also don't bring dridiron to here, it's soloque only and it was ruined in latest patch it got (also dead)

    and civil unrest was designed with more players = win, and yes i hate it too


    sry for long post, i just feel like i know more than the ppl in charge and it triggers me...

    for me the biggest problem with bgs has been forgot about and it should be fixed asap

    make corsair que up to 5 players and fix the que times for parties, give fraywind back or atleast make sh 15v15 with 5man que parties


    right now every single bg is soloq only and that is horrible for any guilds and friend groups trying to do any active pvp. (cs duo doesnt count. its always been broken)


    this soloque stuff was made to combat skilled parties running over soloquers but that should be motivation for soloquers to get into guilds or parties but either way any 20v20 15v15 will always have afk loss/win games


    right now with cu being the disgraceful dying mutated alien mucus and bgs being soloq, guilds have no purpose at all for anyone trying to do pvp




    again we just come back to the fact that all pvp players want is old content made worse/deleted

    koreans knew about this bug and fixed it but they gave us a version with the bug still intact cause they dont give a fk about other regions


    also...

    pve raidboss broken = disable it

    cu broken = release it anyway and maybe fix later

    i asked support if Broxy is allowed and they told me no

    then i also reported someone who beyond a doubt was abusing proxy in pvp and no bans


    so use whatever you want, even flying in corsair doesnt get you banned for the most part

    only petrax fastkills seem to trigger pve heroes to report and give bans



    and if you wanna proxy fish just look at seren's lake elin npc merchant on all 20 channels, there's hundreds of bots all day and night farming endless golds

    they would prolly explain new pvp gear like:

    "the new set is easier to obtain and enchant"


    completely missing the point where it's either max or you're in disadvantage and getting to max is a massive rng hell with bgs that rarely pop because the system is built against them



    pvp gear should be 100% from 0 to +9 with good amount of grind but way less what we have now


    the only reason why this system is so rng is those devs have no idea what to do once players are "done" with the gear grind. they dont wanna add nice looking costumes or mounts+gold to grind towards with fun battlegrounds that ppl wanna play


    players are willing to bash eachothers faces in all day for the fun of it. but as soon as it becomes about farming same bg forever and after weeks you're still +6 broken and million less gold ppl just give up.

    I had some fun last day pk with score even tho they had more ppl and gear.

    We fought at 3 different world bams in a row with pk.


    Yes pk is rare but when it happens it can be really fun.

    Specially with mystels population pk would be used even more.


    They still should add pk to velika outskirts only since there are pk bugs allover that ppl could explout.

    Even pve ppl would be happy with doing slaying guardian missions, so nobody loses.

    gotta give some credit to gameforge for making extreme dungeons now when our patch from bluehole had 1 dungeon and basically no other content to last us another month


    and now maybe with merge i get to lfg some of those dungeons too...

    4grottohm clears trough lfg in killian when i did 100aahm from lfgs before... smh
