That game was so bad I decidedly dropped it permanently. They actually tried to limit how many weapons of the same type you're going to load even in the heaviest, most available mech just because they can own you hard with that instead of being scrubs that load every kind of weapon into the mech.

Shitty, laggy camera that moves like in a console game except you're using a mouse. character movement lags behind even that. character movement in general is slow and there are no mounts "because you can just use waypoints" (except when there aren't any). The rest of the controls are awkward as hell beyond that since it tries to be an action game but uses the 15 year old outdated mmo control set. This makes targeting a pain in the ass and the auto-targeting they use to make up for it is shit and actually makes it impossible to use some abilities correctly. Area targeted spells are also kind of a pain to use since you kind of just have to eyeball it since the game moves too fast for you to actually let up on rmb and stop moving around most of the time.

Quests are either static kill/fetch item quests (the only difference is there's usually a couple objectives you can do to accomplish the same quests. you can kill trolls AND pick berries for the same quest!) or dynamic events which so far are just kill waves of mobs, kill all the mobs in an area, gather a bunch of shit within a time limit, escort someone, or occasionally fight a boss. It's certainly cool to be doing shit with other random players other than swearing at them for stealing your kills but beyond that it's not too exciting after a while. You also end up standing around waiting for events to occur since you usually wont randomly stumble upon enough of them to actually level out of the zone, there's really not a whole lot of content.You'll usually end up repeating the same events a few times before you level out of a zone.

Basically, the events are kinda neat but still get repetitive, the regular quests are standard mmo shit and the combat would be fun but its kind of fucked over by horrible controls.

It is worth re-subbing if you don't mind the grind. I'm on Valley of Titans, and I play quite a bit I also play with a few more /jp/sies that I met ingame.

The game is grinding, it can be laggy, the enchanting system is maddening, but the gameplay is fun.

Elins are really cute too, which is half the reason I will put up with it. Chronoscrolls are easy to obtain at the moment (30 days of gametime for gold on AH) but I cannot guarantee it will be that way forever.

If you decide to play, feel free to post your name and I'll add you. I play pretty much everyday.

Oh and avoid frogster if you live in Western Europe, it's worth the extra latency to get away from them. Otherwise people further east will have no choice because of latency. Enmasse is only slightly better though.

That's ironically ignorant of you because TERA stole everything from it. It's a NCSoft game, if you are an ancient MMO gamer, you should at least know that much.

The original TERA team got mad at NCSoft for going with Blade & Soul instead of creating a Lineage 3, which is still in development hell, and then they formed their own company and ripoff, taking all the concept and other stuff and remodeling it without thinking straight(the original artist didn't ever go with them).

One was "Sanae is a ____." You would probably know what the "meme" was if you browsed /jp/. Even if it was someone who happened to know it and didn't browse /jp/, they were still joining a /jp/ guild.

The targeting system is fine, if you don't play in group and don't use the target calling function, it's your fault.
>Using crafting or pvp to excuse lack of content
If you're going to play only 30% of the game, don't bitch about the lack of content.
I did all my leveling in World vs World, save a few that I grinded with cooking (which is an inexpensive as fuck method to level, takes around 1 gold and some karma to go from 0 to 400 and gain 10 levels)

Xp is WvW is scaled, and so is xp earned with crafting, it's a fixed percentage. capturing a fort is 20% of your level, tower is 10%, camp is 5%, capturing a quagan node is 5%, killing a dolyak, a quagan node, or capturing a sentinel spot is around 2%.

What the hell? I'm not talking about the 21 karma cultural weapons. That was clearly unintended, as in it wasn't even the correct price. What I'm referring to is how you can't even sell basic cooking items on the TP after buying them for karma, despite the fact that this introduces no extra gold into the economy, and in fact removes quite a bit due to increased TP usage (15% cut). You can't even disenchant karma weapons despite the fact that you get almost nothing from disenchanting these things.

Not its not its clunky and slow and a better system doesn't remove the ability to call targets if you're too simple to use marks and voice chat. The only reason anybody is okay with this stupidass control scheme is because thats what every other mmo uses and nerds fucking hate change.

Still waiting for FFXIV 2.0. I wanna go back to FFXI and finally complete all the storyline content now you can easy mode it, but I get the feeling I wouldn't be able to find anyone to do it with. ;_;

It probably wouldn't be fun or immersive to go back, get to cap in a few days then go through all the missions for completion's sake anyway... I wouldn't feel part of the game again with that small amount of investment.

They added Abyssea, which AFAIK has no storyline content, and just amounted to raising the level cap to 99 while making previous content and XPing easy mode (can get 40k~xp an hour or something apparently) and adding more carrots on sticks to chase (gear). Also they removed the level caps on CoP a while ago.

In the end I don't care so much about grinding to make my character more powerful of beating tough bosses. I just want to feel a part of the game world again. I want a game I can devote myself for a decade or more to, and FFXI is just too old and dying for that now. Obviously stuff like GW2, TERA and other WoW clones aren't going to cut it.

I guess having a positive, excited attitude about a game to begin with, plus a friendly community helps.

They added a whole bunch of expansions and free content that's big enough for anyone coming back, raising the cap beyond level 99, they're also adding a new expansion, if you pay for FFXIV you get a bunch of shit that gives double speed and xp.

I played FFXI for almost four years. I have some good memories about it, and a lot of bad memories.

Sometimes I get in nostalgia mode and wish I could play again another MMO like that... but then I remember there is shit like killing the same mobs 2-3 hours for a single fucking quest item, 30 minutes of travel just to get to a certain area, end game contents that can last 4 hours straight or more.

And this without taking in account all the shitty situations that shitty players can create themselves.

And FFXI didn't even have the problem of player killers!

As for PvE, I don't know that much, since it's not my main interest. We got a few new instances recently, so there's a decent amount of content, but I hear that you'll need a good static group for some of the harder content.

At 60 there's not that much to do. There's Nexus, but most people can't even do it because of framerate issues. You can do dailies for hats and zyrks which are worth your time but get boring fast. There are battlegrounds, but I've heard very mixed review on them from the forums. I haven't tried them myself though, I don't generally care for PvP. Then there are endgame instances and their respective hard modes. The problem with these is that, at least as a dps, if you get killed because of a shitty group from the instance matcher you can lose copious amounts of gold because mutinous crux are very expensive to replace, and zyrks are time consuming to get. Unfortunately, you're bound to get people in your group that have no idea how to do their job or won't even listen to instructions on what their job is, and it just falls apart from there. It's a really annoying problem, and is almost worth joining a big end game guild over just so those problems don't arise.

The biggest gripe about end game content is enchanting, which is pretty horrible because +7 and onwards the chances are very low that your enchant will be a success. And since the only way to enchant past +7 is to buy 240gold worth of refined alkahest, it's a very costly endeavor. In my opinion the problem isn't the RNG, it's the static cost of the refined alkahest; if it dropped from instances or endgame BAMs then it would be much easier since getting fodder isn't hard at all.

All of the /jp/ guilds will then be on the same server, or servers if there is one on Celestial Hills or Valley of Titans. But if the inactive /jp/ guilds don't log on the day of the server merge it is highly likely that there's another guild with the same name that will get there first and take the name.

Well, considering most of the population that is still playing have all 7 combat jobs at 50 or get powerleveled to 40, low level EXP parties aren't very common, but there are still shouts for them often enouh in Ul'dah, though not nearly as much as 42-50 EXP/Spiritbond parties are. Though, low level EXP parties are without a doubt far faster than soloing.
Basically anything worth doing at the level cap requires a full 8, be it Instance Speed/runs, Ifrit, Moogle, Garuda, the latter GC missions and so on.

In every match, anyone I've fought before immediately singles me out and prioritizes me over everything else because I usually top the scoreboards with like 80% of the kills of the enemy team. People have been copying my playstyle and builds, and to test this I started using some really stupid ones and--surprise surprise--people started using those, too. I might just be imagining it, though. Maybe I'm just egotistical.

It's really embarrassing to play the game because I know my teammates all just immediately die and then watch in awe as I solo everything. They see me do things and then mimic me, and I know this because I see the same people who died and spectated me in later matches on the enemy team, trying to use those same tactics on me.

It's not all bad. There are some good players. Mostly, though, the community is just really bad. I'm waiting for more game modes to be released before I take the game seriously.

When the game is officially released, I could see /jp/ playing it. I could see most boards playing it, actually. /m/, /vg/, /v/, /jp/, maybe /tg/. I'm going to start a mercenary company up proper as soon as I'm able, so if anyone is interested in playing the game, keep that in mind.

I want to play, but I never got accepted into the beta. I applied on 3 emails too. Oh well.

I got accepted yesterday and I'm pretty disappointed, though it's my fault for expecting too much out of a closed beta.
I'm going back to playing Mechwarrior 4 with a joystick until the game comes out and I upgrade my PC a little.

In any case, if any /jp/sie is still playing EE on Sapphire, befriend/message "meguca". I'll play later tonight some more after my like one year break.

So
TERA is the only place when you can find some /jp/ activity?
Anything else seems kind of dead

>>9710292
What.
Also, how's the Japanese Maplestory?

I believe it's Tera first, then GW2 but the folks playing GW2 in MMO threads seem to have their own plan and have no desire for a /jp/ guild; but I could be wrong.

Seeing as how the server merge is happening a week from now, all the /jp/sies who want to be in a guild on Tera should get together before it happens. My guild has a name conflict on other servers, so it'll probably have to be changed so we could just make it the /jp/ guild if anybody wanted to, since it would be a free name change.

So, what are we playing then?

I've been playing TERA all day.

Are you on a PVP server?

>> No.9711925

>>9711700

Nope, PvE, Freeholds -- at least for now.

I have some level 12 slayer on VoT but I was never really interested in PvP in the first place.

Too bad I hope they allow PVP to PVE transfers or vice versa soon...

>> No.9712033

Yeah, oh well. I'm sure there'll be an uproarious and angry response from the community about losing their names and such so EME might allow PvP to PvE server transfers. As far as I know, the main issue in disallowing it was the existence of the outlaw skill in the former and the lack-there-of in the latter, but now that instance matching will work across all server types maybe that won't be a problem to allow switching.

That doesn't change anything, you can't fight people in instances because if you leave the party you get booted out of the instance immediately.

>> No.9712056

>>9712041

Maybe I worded that wrong. I meant that instance matching wouldn't match people from PvE to PvP possibly because outlaw existed on PvP but not on PvE so it would've caused a conflict of some sort (not a PvP conflict, I mean.) And perhaps that was also the reason why server switches between PvP and PvE weren't allowed either, but now that instance matching will match PvP and PvE I imagine it might no longer be an issue and PvP <--> PvE could be done.

The plan for now is to rename the guild to Gensokyo, unless someone has a better name for it.

Huh, my name's Yamaxanadu too.
