The Soapbox: TERA's rocky road to release
Feb 14th 2012 6:46PM (Massively)All character customization is identical to the Korean version, the levelling is not any different, they ampd up the EXP Gains and that is it, You level twice as fast as the Korean version.
Took them 1/half year to:
- Double EXP Gains
- Translate
Show me something thats new and interesting that other studios couldnt have done in a day, look at FFXIV, it failed and they've built an entire new game in the time it took Enmas/Frog to translate a existing game lols.
The Soapbox: TERA's rocky road to release
Feb 14th 2012 3:15PM (Massively)When other studios easily get out a multi language MMO, TERA has no excuse imo. =D Through this long long way and other high + free competitors, i think that has rocked its release.

Feb 14th 2012 3:10PM (Massively)@paterah Also you do not need to "carefully plan your attacks" you just learn to move right/left now and then and you are fine. You will soon find this out when you are high level and notice how the mobs at level 10 have the same characteristics as mobs level 50.

The Daily Grind: Should MMO companies reveal server loads?
Jan 28th 2012 10:31AM (Massively)it went from nearly 3-4k per server to around 900 people within the first month lol caused a lot of issues. They turned it off, then later they added a "Search" system, and through this and setting specific filters people could get the total number of people online again (dont think devs realised...) and it still declined even though the game went free, and guess what the game stated it was charging the following month.
So it of course caused a HUGE massive bitch fest on the forums and now some servers have like 200 people online at a time LOL.
I think some studios shouldnt, eg this one SE's FFXIV.
But for example SWTOR does have numbers showing how many people in an area so if you REALLY wanted you could work out a good amount, but i think they should at least give a "rough" estimate to what the numbers mean, eg:
Low 2-3k
Medium 3-5k
High 5k+
etc.
