Tera Online News

I scoured the net to find HD TERA videos for your viewing pleasure. The first one featured here was recently released in TERA’s official Korean site. It was titled “TERA CBT 1280″ when I saved it to my computer, so I verified it to be the Closed Beta Debut Trailer. Visit our forum for a compilation of all TERA videos currently found around the net.

Two Prowling Gastanic Beauties

TERA is being distinguished from other popular MMOs such as World of Warcraft (WoW) by introducing the following: Next generation graphics, Dynamic battle system and Enhanced community experience.

The developers of TERA aspires to emotionaly impact players by providing high quality graphics coupled with stunning animation and special effects. One doesn’t have to look farther than the recently released Prologue video which showcased incredible in game action scenes with brutal mauling that left nothing to the imagination. Two scenes that stood out for me the most was the gang mauling of the female high elf caster and Popori (Cute Panda looking thing). Talk about emotionaly impacting players!

“1,2,3,1,2,3…” sounds familiar? According to Bluehole studio, the developer of TERA, facing a mob and repeatedly pressing a skill button is no longer exciting. The unprecedented hit, WoW, doesn’t even deviate from the traditional system. TERA plans to introduce a ground-breaking innovation to the MMORPG combat system. Here is what they had to say.

Female Gastanic Warrior

“From the start, the company hoped to realize a combat system that would set a new global standard. After careful consideration, it was decided that TERA’s fight sequences should closely resemble real fight scenes. Hence, TERA will introduce omni-directional attacks, where distance and direction must be coordinated for weapons and spells to work; moreover, healers must continuously take new battle positions to cast spells. Also, depending on body weight ratio between a mob and player, an enemy hit will register a fall-back reflect. These are some of the innovative features in TERA.”

The town of Velika

TERA does not utilize zoning (section loading), that fragments players. Everyone will be able to seamlessly move throughout the world, sharing a singular combat experience. In order to realise this ambitious vision, Bluehole is using breakthrough robust client/server technology. One of their goal is to acheive the world’s highest concurrent user load per server. To further foster social interaction between players, players in TERA will not only experience battles with higher concurrent users, but also encounter a revolutionized interaction system for political and economic professions. TERA plans to offer a stable, non-disruptive in-game social life as well (player housing perhaps?).
