TERA Review | CheatCC

TERA isn't a World of Warcraft killer, but it's not just another World of Warcraft ripoff, either. It's more like a World of Warcraft supplement, or a World of Warcraft successor: If you enjoy WoW and are up for a change of pace, TERA will be perfect for you.

How does one do a full review of a MMO that's only been available, at most, for a week?

Lucretia5049d ago

well core gameplay, mechanics, politics and content are very good right now, the previous beta had level cap at 60 i believe

Christopher5046d ago

Open beta was capped at 30. Closed was not. Open Beta was primarily to work out network items and push out pre-planned patches they had been working on for months.

Most known MMO reviewers get into beta earlier than open beta for this reason alone. If you are a leader if a well known MMO guild, you tend to get in very early along with a few invites for others in your guild. These guys also tend to write reviews for sites like CheatCC.

I'm sorry, but with Guild Wars 2 on the horizon, why would MMO lovers forgo what will be the greatest MMO to grace the earth, in order to play another damn Korean cookie cutter based MMO with "flashy graphics" and mildly entertaining combat.

I just don't get it.

Lucretia5049d ago

whats so good about GW2 again? im not to sure because nothing impressed me yet. the gameplay is ur standard hotkey gameplay just like other mmos so im not sure how it will be the greatest, fun sure but not greatest.

not that tera is the best but atleast it has unique combat for an expansive world mmo

bwazy5049d ago

I'd love to tell you why, but I'll use my last bubble to simply say"

Google that shit.

You'll come up with hundreds of thousands of articles, youtube videos, fan blogs, developers notes and more, in which that would successfully prove how and why GW'2 is an amazing game (hell even in its beta form its better than any MMO out there).

Guild Wars 2 Combat is fully fluid and the fact that its being heavily considered as the next eSport shows more than enough evidence for its greatness.

"Oh look at that you have another bubble whilst I'm out, please contradict me simply because I can't get another publicly viewed say in the matter" -Sarcastic ****ing Wonka.

well, thats fine and dandy, i have seen stuff on it, but it reminds me of star wars the old republic, everyone thought it was the best game ever and look at it now.

difference is though GW2 is actually good though. and yes i want to play it but its nit THAT different. its not copy and paste GW1 to GW2, but meh. I guess different taste?

example is i love vindictus, i love gameplay where it takes skill. I hate mmos that are so easy ur able to hook up 8 computers and control 8 characters at the same time.

you cannot do that in tera, in tera if u suck at combat and ur twinked out it doesnt matter, the opponent can fight naked and still win.

not sure if u actually looked up anything on tera either since u said it was a cookie cutter when its not.

so we are both guilty of not knowing 100% of everything of the game we are putting down :D

TheGameFoxJTV5046d ago

It's not a cookie cutter mmo, you obviously haven't played it. GW2 is more cookie cutter than Tera, and I've played both extensively before you respond.

mortalrage5047d ago

I find it funny, everytime a new MMo comes out, players are looking at the next one coming down the pike saying its better....Its the same o same o argument, hows SWTOR been working out.

This guy loves WOW, that's why he came out with a 1 week review.

Christopher5046d ago

I've been loving SWtOR...

WoW is a mess and it will continue to be a mess. Still, the less-developed MMOs are going to have trouble gaining a fan base because they lack content right now. Even if people do flock to FF14 or BDO, they'll go back to WoW if they fix enough features or give players a shred of hope.
