(Quote) In the dark about what? About whether there'd be some other additional event besides Wintera? Well we kind of have the answer now... Otherwise, there's no sudden crisis that demands an immediate reply, and the long-running crisis that pe…

(Quote) Somehow you've perfectly captured the TERA forum's deeply emotional, utterly irrational, and completely impotent anger and bitterness in a single succinct sentence. "If you had five minutes to spend signing Christmas cards, you should…

(Quote) Yeah, this is the case. Each account got a reward box in item claim, and as you hit various leveling thresholds you can open the subsequent boxes until the final box at level 65. So you don't get an automatic reward at 65 this time around…

Besides all this, to be perfectly honest, I've been surprised at how many quite reasonable one-word names are actually still around now, even on the busy servers. Of course your most-obvious person names and typical fictional character names are ou…

(Quote) Sorry -- I trimmed the quote tags wrong. Fixed now.

(Quote) Ever since the one Kyra's that had a box event aspect, they realized that back then they're incredibly unbalanced the way they work right now, and that was even before various things came into existence. Since then, it's gotten worse in a …

(Quote) I was never talking about a teleport exploit in the first place. There are many other ways to abuse this kind of event now. But as I repeatedly said, I don't think that's the only factor that impacted it, though I suspect it is one of the…

(Quote) Because I wasn't talking about a teleport exploit. Edit: Fixed quote.

(Quote) I don't think they dissolved any team, but almost all their teams are shared across multiple projects to varying degrees (QA, Localization, Infrastructure, Platform, Community, Support, etc.) Even in Treeshark's day, AFAIK there was only e…

(Quote) No, that was from the first time they ran it before the anniversary (in March). They had to cancel the anniversary one because they said it was broken -- just like ours. If K-TERA is running it now, though, that's good news. Unless it's s…

(Quote) Halrath moved to be Product Manager for AVA about a month ago, so right now Seandynamite is the only PM on TERA PC. I assume in the new year they'll look for a new Assistant, but in December it was basically just him. The rest of the comp…

(Quote) Whether you count it or not, it's all implemented by the same one guy now. And even then, it doesn't change that you don't want to run things that have add risk over to your support team over the holidays. But like I said, they could have …

(Quote) Takes way too long to setup and you don't want something you might need to babysit over the holidays (if drop rates are messed up, if there are technical issues, etc.). If it were just to do something, they could turn on some server buffs …

No other region ever ran the event either after the build that broke it either, so I guess it's abandoned, sadly.

(Quote) And the core issues causing this building feeling of resentment are so far deeper than any stupid (already long-abandoned) shop, or a slipped date on a roadmap (at least it's in the plans at all now after 2+ years), or a trivial (already br…
