Good Bye Tera.

En Masse refuses to merge EU servers so me and my friends decided to quit.
This is very sad because i invested many hours into this game. I have full conflate, full jewlery on both my characters and ambush weapon on my slayer.
I love this game but i refuse to keep playing on a dead server.
Server Maligos is the only one with high population, i went there to check and they have many many players compared to the other servers.
My server is always on low sometimes only 4, 5 players in highwatch or even less...
I love duels, i want to meet new ppl fight other players but i can't because my server is empty.
I hope you understand my poor english.
You just lost a very dedicated player.
Good luck everyone.

  • Server transfers will be implemented in the future, at least that’s what someone from EME said at this years E3.
    You could also make a character on Maligos and start anew. Not ideal but still viable.

    Game is nearly dead now though for real. Kinda sad how they handle things here and main issues like guildbank not working, no trade, chat sucking, warrior is a cancer to play for most with the bad edge display and edge sharing, no new dungeons, display of partymembers often delayed or broken(shown as offline/dead while he/she is already near you or in the bossfight)... and... and... and. The only thing they regulary update is the shop and even this is becoming old now(i want a dayum succubus outfit finally).

    Looking at the patchnotes in this forum is also a joke. Like almost nothing, but they don´t even mention things like flying mounts there or did i miss something?
  • U.S. servers no better (I'm on Dracaloth which is supposed to be the top server..) I'm a priest and it takes at least 45 minutes to que for any dungeon past the first one. So I do story quests or such to level while I wait. Well guess what, now I'm too high level to que so I have to find a party to at least finish the quest & get the trophy.

    That would be tolerable if people were actually playing. And even if people are playing the CHAT IS SO BROKEN it doesn't really matter. I *could* go to Velika/HW and shout for a group. But no one ever reads the chat and I don't blame them because of it's limited space (3 lines), how much garbage it says (npc chit chat), and gold sellers spam.

    This is easy to fix though!!!!! (All very helpful but listed in order:)

    1: Tera only needs TWO servers. ONLY TWO! One PvE and one PvP. There are channels to take care of the rest if it's slightly busy...

    2: US and EU can play together on the same TWO servers.

    3: PS4 and Xbox can also play together.

    And to the people saying "bye bye won't miss ya", you will regret those words when more people keep leaving for the same reasons and you are alone in an MMO wasteland.

    Plus if there were only 2 servers people might actually spend the EMP to purchase an additional character slot thus increasing profit to EnMasse. As it is now, why bother when you can just as easily go to a new server?

    Plus people don't make new characters because of REAL LIFE MONEY BOUGHT soul bound items. I could play a tank if needed but I won't because I bought a mount and it's bound to my priest in Dracaloth.

    We aren't dumb and they aren't going to make much more money if they treat the players this way much longer.

    If no one is playing and you have to solo dungeons as if Tera was a single player RPG you're better off playing an RPG like Fallout or FF or Skyrim with a great story and character development.

    FWIW, dungeon queues are cross-server. So merging servers won't do anything to shorten these queues. The main factor is probably that people have not been leveling that many new characters, but this will likely change this week when the new class comes out.

    Not saying they shouldn't merge servers -- they probably will at some point. But it won't help queues for leveling dungeons.

    (Also, PS4 and Xbox can't play together for Sony won't allow it for any game, unfortunately. I'm sure they allowed it, many games would do it, including TERA. US and EU servers also can't interact due to cross-server lag, so that won't happen either.)

    It doesn´t change queues but it makes Tera feel more alive when having just 2 servers packed full of players.

    Though there will be issues again with 2 servers like lags and stuff. Actually the servers are not empty, most are medium and 1 or 2 high so the game is not dead yet but it´s on a big downfall right now.

    Also you can join whatever guild you want, they are all zero communicative in chat and play all for themself/solo. The communication in Tera is just a big fail. I don´t know why they can´t fix those simple things like changing chat(they didn´t ever touch it yet) and as it is one of the most requested fixes, if not the most requested, it is a clear sign that they don´t listen to players and don´t give a single [filtered].

    The only thing they care for is making servers accessable, game running okayish and their shop.
  • EU and US can't merge due to lag
    LFG is cross server, sooo...............
    as stated above, xbox and ps4 cant play together. Name one game where ps4 and xbox one play together? i'll wait
    do you realize the stress it would put on a game, to have everyone on only 2 servers? I'm sure all of you are server pro's and know a ton about servers, but lets be realists here.....2 servers would crash during peak times.
    I main a priest on Smulch, and I havent had any issues getting into any dungeons/bg's or groups at all. Maybe its just the times you're playing?

    Can't they do the same thing like Neverwinter ? Not sure how many servers it has i see 40 players in 1 instance and there are 20+ different instances and that's only 1 map.
    Im from EU and have a lot friends from US and some friends from UK and JPN hanging around or do whatever we want in same instance without lag.

    That would be so awesome if we had this on tera. The population's growth would increase by 75% and enmasse/bhs would make good profit from it.

    But lets wait since the game is still new/fresh on console. I do remember Neverwinter being very very laggy and had a lot crashing/freezing/bugs from start for 2 or 3 years. Tbh, 6 years now Neverwinter still has a lot of bugs here and there and sometimes the server crash/disconnects/freeze/etc.
    I am sure enmasse/devs wants to have a bug free game too but fixing all of this requires a lot of time and work.

    Gave me a good laugh that did..

    The PC version of TERA still have the majority of the issues it had 6 years ago.. The same issues carried over to the console port, and make no mistake about it, this is a console port, not a re--make of the game. They added proper controller support and a slightly more annoying UI and menu system to work with the controller, but that's about it.

    If they wanted a bug-free game, they'd fix the PC version first before porting it to the consoles.

    I know but every time I actually wait and finally get a group after almost an hour (waiting through ques) when dungeon is completed everyone leaves through the teleporter and viola! There they are standing next to me outside the dungeon. Kinda makes me think the server-wide ques are broken atm. Could just be my luck, I dunno, but it's weird odds.

    You are wrong about Sony not allowing cross platform play though. They had it on FF11 online on PS2. PS2, pc, and the original Xbox all played on same servers.

    Final Fantasy 11 online, way back on PS2/original Xbox/PC:

    Cross play between all major regions (Japan, EU, US, and I believe Australia)
    + Cross play between PS2 & PC at the PS2 launch
    + Cross play between PS2, PC, Xbox at the Xbox launch
    +Subscription based but still massive player base, it was NEVER empty and I was on Gilgamesh not a huge server

    Plus I played on *dial up* (that's all that was available back in 2003-2007 in my rural area) and I hardly experienced lag.

    So they had US, EU, Japan & PS2 Xbox PC players able to play together on any server in the early/mid 2000's. That kept servers very alive.

    ACTUALLY, now we are correct about Sony. They said OFFICIALLY they do not want to allow cross-play with Nintendo and XBOX because "For the children". Yes, they said that against nintendo of all people, as well.

    Hope sony goes bankrupt sooner, rather than later for including Nintendo in that :P
  • Welcome to tera, this is as good as its going to get. Console players need to realize they don't care this is not ktera, which is their only concern the western community is just a cash grab to support ktera. Oh they will eventually fix a couple issues as long as its nothing major, the PC version has waited years for fixes and still the game is poorly optimized and we keep thinking they will fix it but it never happens. The only reason it runs smoother for some on PC is due too the community coming up with fixes. I myself love playing tera due to the combat system and do wish they would fix it. You can tell the console edition is a cash grab due to the fact they refuse to sell account bound items. And yes before you white knights say anything I already know it can be done because I've. Been programming games for 25yrs for major mmos and the code is already in place they just refuse to implement it. If tera survives beyond a year it will be a mircle. With gunner getting ready to be released we will see an influx of players briefly and will notice more bugs, more cash shop grabs than back to screaming tera is dead until ninja is released, than rinse and repeat for couple months than valk. Etc. Than tera will truly die with no major issues even being addressed. So basically just enjoy while you can but spend your money wisely(unless your a whale like me and don't care since I can't take my money with me when I die lol I spend it on games and cancer research)

    Well I hadn't heard of that. Do you have a link? Fortnite is playable with PC gamers (yes I understand PC is not the same as Xbox/Nintendo but still).

    about 90% of pc gamers are on windows . . . which is microsoft . . . which just so happens to be the owners of XBOX as well . . . sooooooo that is a moot point. But aside from that, the point about sony can be found in quite a few places, including them saying it live in one of their conferences. Google is there for a reason :) Do your research before believing people.
