  • (Quote) (I don't think that's actually true at all, but...) So...? This isn't an "update" issue -- it's not like there was some game update sitting on the proverbial shelf like "break new bank slots" and they chose to install i…
  • (Quote) They may be issues that only impact our build, but they're both bugs/issues caused by BHS, who create/maintain all the code for our (and all) versions of the game. EME doesn't do any programming for the game. The only thing they can do in…
  • This error usually means the game crashed, but it could be for one of many reasons. That error message alone doesn't really provide any hint about the root cause. If you're calling it a login issue, I assume this means that it's happening when you…
  • I certainly won't pretend that everything has been fine, but this is particularly bad timing. The bank slot issue is a bug in this most recent update that is being investigated and they are working to fix. The TERA Rewards issue is something that …
  • (Quote) They do have some minimal staff monitoring things for crises on the weekend, but the full team works the week. So it is possible that you might get an answer on the weekend, but maybe not. It depends mostly on what the issue is about and h…
  • My guess is that the power management or internal graphics selection changed after a Windows update or driver update, and it's running off internal graphics instead of the notebook's dedicated graphics card. Most likely it's a problem that can be f…
  • (Quote) Just create your character; I'd do it now so you can at least take advantage of 3x XP bonus this weekend. I think it's basically impossible that EME will say "oh, we've renamed the other character so you can get your name, but we won'…
  • (Quote) It's triple of base. This is how it has always worked. If you have other boosts like Elite or BuddyUp or Rested or whatever, they are also on top of the base, and not impacted. So it's not like it takes the old total XP you were gaining a…
  • (Quote) lol - if that actually happened, it'd be ludicrous XP. Assuming TERA Rewards were back on and someone was Tier 10, they could theoretically get over 30x! You'd level so fast you wouldn't have enough gold to even afford your skills lol
  • (Quote) No disagreement about any of that. I think we all want it to survive -- including EME, since it's still a lot of their income, I'm sure. But at the end of the day, TERA is a small fish trying to survive in a giant sea with huge predators.…
  • It should, yes (just like how double XP events worked before). It should go: 100 - Base 100 - Elite or XP Scroll 200 - Event 100 - Rested 100 - BuddyUp ... and the other small consumables. If Rewards XP get re-enabled, that would multiply on top…
  • (Quote) Your assumption that they're making "little to no effort to actually learn the game or about the game" is factually incorrect. You're also assuming that everyone who has "learned the game" would all agree on what to do.…
  • (Quote) What hypocrisy? If it were up to me, I would have pushed to fix it right from the start and ban all those who knowingly exploit it. How long people have known about it or how many people are able to do it make absolutely no difference to …
  • (Quote) They have communicated their "stance" on injecting many times and in no uncertain terms (on stream and on the forum). The only thing people are waiting for is for the other shoe to drop to prove they "really mean it."
  • (Quote) MMOs aren't the same as single-player games where the consequences are isolated. If an MMO allows something and you do it, but that something is an exploit, it can still be against the rules and can still get you banned. If people devise …
