T.T I see. But Elion server is still the best for finding other EN players? I've been away from the game for quite a while... guess I can look through the Tera Fans boards to try finding an active guild that wouldn't mind a noob ^^;.

[FriskUni]

yea, I think liberation has a lot of the old worldboss members and lower levels in it

[Indalecia]

Egwene and Tuon, eh?

I see what you did there...

Since the site is so light on info, can anyone enlighten us on how organized PvP works? Especially as related to taking over a province. How many people? Capture the flag? How do you queue up? PvP gear awards? Number of players per side?

[ChairmanMeow]

How much PVPing is available on PVE servers?

[Purrrfect]

If you were in the FGT last year, does that do anything for you as far as the betas? I had to 'create' a new account when I tried to log in...

On PVE will be duels and battlegrounds (instanced group fights) that you queue for, solo or as a group. Each instance has different objectives from strategy capture the flags to deathmatch, with 5, 10, or 15 people on each side depending.

Will have to use your guild to take an area, either with voting or fighting in battlegrounds, with some quest/dungeon elements for perks. Not sure what EME is changing if anything, it was set up to elect to control on a 3 week cycle, then it can be taken by force. Might be the purpose of the new guild war system.

Whoever has the most twitter fans would be lame, as would having one guild monopolize everything. Not having most or your guild be able to participate (in a closed battleground) would be meh, but so would zerg guilds and having guilded alts being a detriment (in open world). I imagine zones will go "live" at different times/days and you'll have to make choices as a guild. Maybe restrict to 1 zone per guild. Speculation.

Last year EME did mention that you can move from a PVP server to PVE but not the reverse.

Use the same email and you should be ok. IIRC everything is tracked by email addresses. All FGT/CPE memebers get access to all beta stages.

I found the WorldBoss page finally after looking around for a while, which sounds like it could be a good group to join, but I want to ease myself back into the game a bit before I pay for a server transfer ^^; Need to re-learn the controls and such, get used to alot of the changes that were made while I was gone. Leveling up is supposed to be even faster now, so it shouldn't be that long before I'm capped and able to join in the "endgame" dungeons.

Wow I remember this. Mr. Jang had made this and kept telling me about GameMeca and how it wanted to interview me for being NA. Good times. Look at the date though. That's when I quit for FFXI! /cryyyyyyy

Client downloaded. Checking the graphical options, I noticed there was no AA; I had the notion that the current korean client had such option available. Am I wrong? Or is perhaps a feature being added for the upcoming patch?

Trying to gauge at which patch level compared to korea we stand.

[Jojimbo]

I thought that TERA lacked AA and that it had to be forced on via gpu drivers.

Gamestop website still not updated has anyone reserved a collectors edition from them instore yet?

[ChairmanMeow]

So, you can already buy game time? How do you do that? Also, how much is the monthly cost?

[Siya]

http://tera.enmasse.com/preorder I want to preorder the box collection edition from gamestop, just waiting for their system to update so I can do it

[Senji]

Posted an hour ago on their twitter:

We're also checking in with our retail partners about getting the physical #TERA collector's edition listed for pre-order-ability pronto.

[Siya]
