Flying mount

DevilGraveDevilGrave
in TERA PC - General Discussion
What the hell is the purpose of a flying mount when 90% of the open world is a NO FLY ZONE come on EN MASSE what are you thinking or are you not. This is a really pointless mechanic to have when its only limited to a few places when once you earn said mount you should be able to fly ANYWHERE in the open world.

    Tera was never meant to be a game with flying mounts. Because of this, they are supposedly working on making more and more zones flyable. That's why the newer areas you can fly in; they're working backwards.

    Just be patient.

    It's a sort of start up project. As posted, Tera was not supposed to support free flight. In fact, for most people on anything mid settings and lower on their visuals, anything on the extended view will look empty and really bad anyway. I believe that the pegasus paths were designed to allow the player to see the most eye candy possible while flying. But out of those zones and paths, the rest of the above earth experience is more bland, save a few zones that are nice looking from above.

    ?? Do u goto news stands and complain about whats printed in there stuff ???
    Blue hole is the one u want to address your comments to and who says there not planning on making every zone a flight zone but as with all new stuff Issues have to be fixed (hopefully) before release like not falling through mountain sides when u land and get jammed into the texture maps.

    off the top of my head i can think of a few uses for these mounts like new zones only available to via them - mounted combat - hidden areas - quests over water areas whare your required to catch someone or find a moving target (sky castle) new pvp content whare u attack rival guilds castle to cap it ect.

    Neither are the other zones that is not northen arun. But they are still going to make it so we can actually fly there by opening up the skybox. I know it might be impossible to think they would open up Velika when they first started implementing flying since its the most alive city in the game outside of Highwatch

    Literally tomorrow all of arun will be flyable. All of North and South Arun will be a flyzone (minus certain places). The devs are working on more.

    The very fact you think enmasse are the developers of the game just goes to show how much you actually know about anything.

    The very next patch which drops tomorrow has already stated more zones will be accessible to you and this is something they will continue to do and work on. But to know this you would need to know how to read.


    You're clueless, so why can't you refrain from posting altogether.

    If all of Arun is flyable tomorrow, I can't help but wonder if Baldera will be also...

    In any case, they're doing a great job with it. I just hope we get unrestricted airtime in the future (at least on PvE servers).
