Ping, Eu player on ENMasse

YamiDenisYamiDenis
in TERA PC - General Discussion
Hi, so I am an EU player and have around 60ms-80ms on Eu servers, I really like the NA servers but I am a new player to understand the differences besides ping. On Na servers I have 150ms-180ms, I wanted to know what would be more worth it to invest my time in, Na or Eu, considering everything, I really do not want (as a mystic) to miss my heals if it makes much difference to play with 100 extra ping.
Generally since I am new I wanted to know more about this.
Thanks

    You'll have to learn to adjust your timing, and lock-ons can take slightly longer, but it's still relatively easy to play most dungeons even at 300ms. There's a large amount of people who play from outside the US and we all learn to adapt, yes it's harder than if you were playing at 50ms but it's by no means impossible.

    the difference in ping will be like day and night, but the way both companies handle their games are also that way :^)

    It's playable here, tho you gotta just give up on idea of doing some of hard modes/pvp on certain classes

    I know that much, though the point is, does the game at 150-180ms feel that much laggy or delayed? or is it unnoticeable?
    I do not know how the game operates on networking, some games have ways to workaround the ping issue with syncing and such. I would like to pvp but not just yet, I am a mystic but may also create other characters.
    I mean, yeah it is true, gameforge and enmasse is like night and day as far as I was told.
    Although the gameforge support is better in many ways, I tried both supports for the same issue.
    Gameforge was like lightning fast while enmasse delayed by a week and only sent me an auto-reply.

    150-180ms is low enough to do all the content you want to do in the game currently, and was enough to do all of the previous content. You will have a slightly harder time in pvp, but thats about it.

    I see, so it will not make much difference, right? I notice with mystic that I have some delays on some moves, like the lock on heal, I need to spam space to activate it, or it could just be the skill, whichever the case.

    Which ping and above is considered noticeable delay?

    In case you have not used it you could also try leatrix latency fix.
    http://www.leatrix.com/leatrix-latency-fix

    For online games in general it does really help by changing the network rules to be optimized for online-gaming.
    The website gives a detailed explanation about the changes the program makes and why for gaming you will see a drop in your latency.

    I am also playing from the EU (Netherlands) and i have a stable ping of 110ms.

    The game is more then playable for me.

    It is logical that you have a better experience since you are near and the route is shorter, I am from eastern europe so for me the route is a lot further.
    Such optimization software are indeed helping out but I already have tried them, thanks.

    What you say is that it doesnt have any real impact on the game? Because brawler needs lots of timing.
    I did not see anything negative about gameforge, on the contrary they had better and faster support because I used both companies for support, I just wanted to play with Na players and with a bigger server.

    @YamiDenis i started wit GF 3 /4 years ago. The game was not so BAD.
    The main differents is not supoort between Na and Eu but feedback. Enmasse read( the topics on forum) liste the ppl who really play this game, the do a lot of event and give u free permanent staffs like mount / pets / dresses( not for 30 day like eu). Eu is really P2W considering that now u can buy the brooch in shop. Also just go on killian and look on TB than come on TR and look on TB. For exaple mes here 40 golds on EU 400. The most funny thing is tha eu use a feedbacks from the player not for make better the gameplay in game or make the ppl "happy" to play, No they use the players feedbacks to put item on cash shop -.-".
    I spent a lot of money have a different characters on eu, but i left all to start from 0 one year ago but im happy on NA and really enjoy this game.
