but we are stuck in the cute elin matrix
there's too many underlying problems that bhs refuses to fix. instead, they opt for making periodic cash booms with new gender/race locked classes every 6 months
they don't fix what's broken. they cover it up with new innerwear skins and seasonal outfits
console players will come and leave in 2 months (or sooner), just like the seasonal pc players
This game is being developed for both Xbone and PS4, but only the Xbone currently allows cross-play between different platforms. That's only in theory though, as there aren't any games on the Xbone that currently do this to my knowledge (Xbone can cross-play with Win10 games, but that's a bit different). That's partially because Sony still hasn't opened up to cross-play between competing consoles and their own, only between it and Steam.
This means that at least one version of console Tera is going to be closed off. PS4 Tera can support cross-play with PC Tera, but that means Xbone would have to be closed off (which would be insane). Xbone Tera can technically cross-play with the PC versions, but that would then mean the PS4 version would be closed off (which would also be insane),
Without some clever workaround for these console politics, I don't think anyone is going to have to worry about a clash between console and PC players because the odds of it happening are slim.
Here we talking about Tera getting consoles release which is a good things. I'm just glad this changes would bring fortune to Tera overall population and growth. Let's just hoping they know that to do about console stuffs and its workaround.
Speaking server-wise, the idea of same server isn't crazy but it depends on how Sony and Xbox management on how they views this matter. Usually it's about money. Let's say, new server for consoles, they could make a new subscriptions. cash shops, items etc and many more. Thus bringing them a whole new gold mine.
A several thousand will join, gear up and leave after seeing that story content is mostly on parties and can't be done Solo.
Will be a pain since they are not diferent from most of pc players that care for showing their dps and don't like to tank, so the q times will be eternal for them.
It is a crime to remove CS for under 65 levels.
At least they can add something like that separing ppl by level range... lv 30-40 togheter, level 41-50, 51-64 and then the actual 65.
Right now, everyone get max level without know what is a big pvp like a 20v20.
I didnt try the new BG yet (cause i dont have new 65 characters) but make that one (Wich is simple pvp, no other objetives) for everyone separating instances by levels. At least with that you can keep some players interested on the game.
Here in this American continent and even in the European, we like to fight another person. The "all togheter, grabbed by the hands and singing love songs while fighting Monsters" its a ASIAN thing. The most of us did not like it, and that will not make us to keep interest on the game.
Sorry my english languaje assasination!
