Velika’s Voice: Weekly Official TERA Polls

Hey, TERA Fans! A few hours ago, Scapes on the official forums announced a new weekly feature. Each week, the TERA team will post a new poll for the community to participate in. It's great how many opportunities the team gives us to make our mark on the game we love the most!

This week's poll is: Which type of in-game event do you enjoy most?

Be sure to go vote here and check out the announcement here!

Make your voice heard!

Each week we'll publish a new official Velika's Voice poll about a game-related subject for the TERA community to answer and discuss. Polls will remain open for the duration of the week and close the following Monday when a new poll will take its place. We will use the results and subsequent discussion harvested from these polls will be used to assist in the development of the game. This thread will list and link to these polls as they are posted in the Polls subforum.

NEW: Which type of in-game event do you enjoy most?

This post will be updated each week to reflect the new polls.

Screenshots of the Week: Bloodsucking Freaks

Hello, TERA Fans! Yesterday, En Masse released a new set of screenshots of the week, this time featuring the Vampir race. Enjoy!

Quote

This week, our TERA screenshots reveal dark enemies from dark places. Once peaceful residents of Popolion and environs, the vampirs have gone insane and resumed their former blood-sucking ways. No traveler is safe on the moonlit roads of Poporia Province from the sacred city of Pora Elinu to the Vale of the Fang. Is it magic or mutation that's to blame?

The people of Popolion mourn the loss of their friends and neighbors, but until a cure for the madness can be found, vampirs must die!

Screenshots of the Week: Castanica, The Shrouded Rose Pt 2

Hello, TERA Fans :D This week's screenshots of the week also contains a video! Along with two more screenshots of TeraFans Wiki - CastanicaCastanica , BrotherMagneto has posted a short fly-though video showcasing the city.

Quote

In our seventeenth screenshot collection, we return to Castanica, a darkly beautiful city of iron spires and flying buttresses reminiscent of a gothic cathedral. Images of the castanics' exquisite shrouded rose symbol repeat throughout the city on massive metallic structures, and the contrast aptly reflects the edgy and contradictory nature of its inhabitants.

Explore the shadowy streets and alleyways of the city of the shrouded rose—Castanica. The center of castanic life and culture is at once earthy and mysterious, with secrets seeming to wait around every corner, while the iron and the rose aptly symbolize the contradictions inherent in the castanic spirit.


I've always loved the character that Castanica seems to have. It seems so shady, with its alleys and dark atmosphere and even so, it's very intriguing! What do you guys think of Castanica?

Good evening, TERA Fans! Today Scapes on the official forums has posted a new set of screenshots of the week. This week features some of the first official shots of the beautiful TeraFans Wiki - High ElvHigh Elf capitol, Allemantheia! Check them out!

Quote

For the fifteenth installment of Screenshots of the Week, we bring you two shots from Allemantheia, the elven capital on Shara. A human archer stands proudly in the foreground admiring the view—dappled light on the waterways, the intricate architecture…it really is breathtaking. It’s no wonder tourists lose days just wandering the city.

On the surface, a welcoming sight. But like all cities, Allemantheia holds its secrets. How far will you go to learn them?

Summary of Transportation System Discussion

Good evening, TERA Fans! Thanks to our wonderful translators, Meiellink and Locien, today we have a bit of news from the official Korean site. Korean CM, Tree, has posted the summary of a community discussion about mounts and traveling around the world of TERA.

Although so far we don't have any information about mounts in TERA, the pegasus flightpath system which flies players to major cities and questing hubs has been active in the game since FGT1.

Check out the translation below and let us know what kind of unique and interesting qualities you'll be looking for in TERA's mount and transportation systems!

Good day, this is Tree.

First of all we'd like to thank all of you who participated in our most recent discussions for leaving us suggestions and criticism about movement and transportation in TERA. We have summarized your suggestions here, so please have a look at them.

What means of transportation would you like to see in TERA?

1. Mount diversification
Many players told us that they want to see more kinds of mounts available in the game because they'd like to enjoy a variety of mounts.

2. Strengthening the abilities of mounts
We received word that players thought it would be good if mounts received strengthened abilities, had their appearance improved and received a strengthening system using crystals.

3. Convenient movement
We've been told that players would like to be able to go directly between towns and hunting spots without
having to walk the route between them. Players also requested a feature that would let you move to specified places.

4. Large scale vehicles
We've received word that players would like to see large scale vehicles such as large boats, buses and subway trains implemented to add towards a more interesting experience.

5. Et cetera
We were also told that players would like to see other things such as a human cannon in Velika and a teleport ring which memorizes a location.

We hope we'll be able to shape TERA's mount and movement systems to match the participants suggestions and demands to make them convenient, and to make TERA fun for everyone.

We also hope that all of you will participate in our upcoming 40th discussion and leave your valuable feedback and suggestions there!

Thank you very much.
