    Yeah if you beta testers could tell us if the PvP ideas and implementation is okay, that'd be nice

    No idea about that, only duels were enabled during FGT2. The one guy who got into a battleground crashed the server every time he logged on. :lol:

    Wow, that's funny. Does pvp feel fair. As in, how frequently do you think"oh that's bullshit I totally should have hit that guy" or something similar? Or are you even allowed to talk about it?

    I dunno really what I can and can't talk about, since TERAfans talks about whatever the fuck they want to and they're still around (though that's probably because Curse has money coming out their ass).

    My favorite PvP fight so far was a really close one between me an a Mystic, actually. I had never played or fought a Mystic before so I didn't know what skills they have, so when the guy started teleporting behind my back and knocking me down and hitting me while I was down I was kinda like "what the fuck" but then I figured out what was going on (after the second or third time he did it) and then the fight was much more fair. I knew that when he ran off and started casting his teleport, I should get ready to spam my jump back skill, which is what I did. Then I was able to avoid the knockdown fan AoE and fire off a charged shot while dodging his stun shots. It was rather fun, but it was a 1v1 duel and I didn't have the fast shot skill yet. Two more levels and I would have been raping that Mystic like his level 26 Archer buddy was doing to me.

    Wow that sounds like a blast. I guess we'll have to wait till the beta to see how well servers can handle it when there are hundreds of people logged in.

    Approximately 20gb installed, but it takes 20gb to download too and thus you need to have 40gb available before trying to install TERA or the installer will choke and die (happened to me).

    Considering how graphically intense games are getting these days it makes sense. Can't wait to see the filesizes on games like FFXIV and TOR with the large amount of Voice acting in the game.

    20GB ain't bad. Both Vanguard and Age of Conan were larger, as I recall.

    It's the price you pay if you want a variety of high quality graphics.

    Oh ok that's reasonable. Shame they can't just download and install it at the same time like steam.

    Whelp, I put my hat in the rack, so to speak.

    I really hope I do get into one of these, because I will test/abuse the hell out of the combat system. Specifically in PvP.

    AMEN

    The combat system is one of the things that really drew me to the game. It reminds me a bit of DDO's combat system but much improved.

    I was slobbering over the mechanics. I certainly don't mind the TnA, but I'm married, so I can get that whenever I want.

    The closed beta for this thing is facinating.

    Like, they're adding pretty much everything due to closed beta feedback.

    Which is both interesting and terrifying.

    Haha. So true. Usually if most people are complaining about something, then there is some merit behind it, but at the same time, people are whiners. For some people, if they're not winning, the game is "broken".
