It is was designed for mass oO, you just need an insanely top of the line 1500-3K PC
In early days there was no BG and PVP was well mass PVP and Alliance.
Most who play TERA on NA use potatoes or laptops like me hence the F2P moniker and the fact that many PC gamers are not enthusiasts/ haven't upgraded going on 6-7 years now? Even when they do upgrade its the next lvl mid tier card that well is mediocre. It's still not uncommon to run into some1 who thinks they can play TERA with an integrated graphics card. Keep in mine those are the masses who complain and can't tell the difference between FPS/ping "lag"
If you run the diagnostics test pretty sure majority would fail. Whats next? You actively search and tweak the game, but lets get real many will say, "Aint nobody got time for that!"
Erm, no. FWC and 3v3 both predate Alliance. OWPvP is small scale(most of the time) and GvG is somewhere in the middle as it has somewhat different requirements and can be done for a variety of reasons. Alliance PvP and CU are both completely incompatible with Tera and it's not because of fps issue but because of the core game design. Organised, faction-oriented mass PvP requires a certain degree of non-communication between enemies, specific class balance, post-stun defence, variety of strategic options, actual teamwork etc. Tera has none of those things. Mass PvP is something that makes action combat vastly irrelevant(and, in some cases, it's stupidly annoying) and that's Tera's selling point. You know what works really great with action combat? Small scale PvP.
Unfortunately *new* BHS team that works for TERA have an absolute obsession with mass PvP and totally neglecting Skyring. Oh well, not the first game I played where its entire potential got obliterated by clueless "new team" of developers.
rofl, dude, you're hilarious if you think people with top of the line PCs accept 10FPS of gameplay (not just CPU, but Pascal GPU etc too, of course it doesn't do squat for TERA what a surprise really).
You see, people with top of the line PCs expect nothing less than at least 60FPS @ 4k resolution playing a game that looks as [filtered] as TERA since it's so old. And even that is a stretch, for these graphics.
2. Give IoD better rewards so more people have more reasons to be there.
3. Leaderboards for BG's and GvG's (and PvE) >
4. Prizes for top ranks each month.
5. Give us something farm outside so people can PvP out of towns/safe zones.
6. Rework/expand outlaw system.
7. Host tournaments every 2-4 months instead of every 1.5 - 2 years.
8. Random open world events that is either PvP focused, or can incentivise PvP if it will gain you the upper hand.
Just a few ideas.
A lot of people still care about Pvp. BHS and EME on the other hand clearly do not
Already offered this multiple times to EME, no response so I guess they don't want to fix it.
