Saw amazing stuff in the global chat earlier. Players talking about how they wanted to rape the Elin, the little girl race. I actually saw someone use the "They're really a 1000 year old goddess." reasoning. So yeah, good people clearly.

I really hope you reported that player, so at least En Masse can take action and ban them.

I've got like a level 40 char on it, I like it, the new class is great too.

Don't get me wrong, there's [I]absolutely nothing wrong[/I] with playing Elin or other races. At the end of the day, it's the person behind the keyboard that's responsible for all those sorts behavior, not the game itself.
Huh, gunner looks fun. It's about time Castanics get something to better represent the technology of their people, since they're supposed to be the most advanced race of the bunch. You wouldn't really know it past all the fan service, though.

Still dunno how you'd go about modding it. (No I'm not making any nude mods if that makes you feel better)

I'm pretty sure they patched the game so you can't use other voices anymore, I use to play the game in all Japanese so I wouldn't have to hear the god awful voice acting, then Japan came out with paid character voices and people started ripping them out and letting us just paste it into our games without paying and well, the results was Enmasse patching the game so no new audio files... well the game keeps crashing on startup everytime I try when I have new audio files, but that was months ago, maybe now? I dunno

Maybe now i'll play again. Their god awful installer never works for me
[QUOTE=Stiffy360;47677064]I'm just wondering how they would mod the gpk files. Been trying to mod various unreal games.[/QUOTE] seeing as gpk is tera specific, I don't know they have [url]http://forum.teratoday.com/topic/70-tool-uthelper-13/[/url] I think it's version specific, as it's not opening upk from goat simulator Like it does, but it fails on violation after scanning the data
I believe i Remember something about EU and US servers being managed by two seperate companies, and the EU company pretty much never do jack shit in regards of updates and stuff, leaving the servers mostly dead, while the US company actually do pretty good keeping the game alive and updated. I downloaded it myself and once I figure out how to turn off chat I am sure I can have a good time as the gameplay itself is pretty entertaining.
I've been bored as fuck and been wanting to get into an MMO for a while. How's the learning curve in this game? Can I just farm shit for a while and figure things out or is a level 50 loli going to tear me up so bad I shit sideways the second I log on?

You can farm stuff as long as you'd like, unless you make a character on the PvP servers (you can turn on outlaw mode and fight anyone outside of town). It's not too tough to pick up, but to actually be efficient with your class you need to learn some mechanics. If you're going to play by yourself mainly then I recommend you make a Lancer (which is the tank class in this game) because you can pretty much solo everything outside of dungeons.

You can solo everything. Literally everything. Especially since Avatar weapons drop so much faster and you can level those to +9 super fast.

but it's ergonomically balanced, like her armor

It's super weird because isnt the game otherwise Generic fantasy? Aion pulled this shit too when suddenly it was like "And now for some rediculous Sci-Fi Elements!"
[QUOTE=kenji;47690372]It's super weird because isnt the game otherwise Generic fantasy? Aion pulled this shit too when suddenly it was like "And now for some rediculous Sci-Fi Elements!"[/QUOTE] Not really, there has always been ridiculous stuff as far as I know. Like the mount they're handing out for free is a giant golden spider mount that has been in the game since launch. They have airships to get around, portals that Pegasus fly through, huge energy turbines in the middle of cities, and electricity. So it's not like Sci-Fi is a new element, it's just that this class (which is technically called Arcane Engineer but had its name changed to Gunner for NA) exemplifies all of that.
How is this game free 2 play model?
[QUOTE=C4rnage;47690516]How is this game free 2 play model?[/QUOTE] it's pretty good, like it's got XP boosts but most of the micro stuff is just costumes or mounts.
[QUOTE=kenji;47690372]It's super weird because isnt the game otherwise Generic fantasy? Aion pulled this shit too when suddenly it was like "And now for some rediculous Sci-Fi Elements!"[/QUOTE] Apparently En Mass Entertainment decided to do away with the original naming conventions of the class when they brought it over from Korea. Instead of "Gunner," think "Arcane Engineer" or something.
[QUOTE=TDocter;47676527]Just the name Gameforge should tell you enough to stay far away.[/QUOTE] Gameforge recently scammed me out of $60 by placing me in the EU servers for Orcs Must Die Unchained out of nowhere. And they refuse to change me to US or give me a refund. So yeah I'm never using their service again.
