Guess who's back and is about to save TERA again?https://teraclassic.com
>>2518386Praise our lord and savior!
>>2518386why should i trust this schizo who larps as his own staff after what happened?
>>2519297you shouldnt trust him, but you should play anyway
>>2519297It's not about trust, it's about playing TERA with more than 10 payers online.
barakasisters
>look into it>it's just recycled TERA with no meaningful changes>no new cosmetics/customization options>no model updates-- especially those kinda gross faces the Elins have, 3D modeling has come a long fucking way since 2011 and it falls short of current standards now>no new gameplay content>only has the initial release classes + Reaper and GunnerWhy would anyone bother playing this?
>>2518386cool there's a thread
>>2521299fr, even the WoWtrannies did more than this when they booted up their private servers, all these niggers did was grab an old patch of TERA, strip out the microtransactions and go "fuck it we ball" and just fire up servers until one of them actually worked. what's the point??
>>2521403There are other tera servers with much more custom content and shit, but nostalgiafags only want an old version with no changes so what can you do
>>2521928What private server is the most populated at this point? And with how many people?
I'm ready for it. Shame it still has open pvp faggotry.
>>2521299>>2521403wow players did more than "just vanilla" because they have been playing vanilla servers without changes for 20+ years in the private server scene, retardtera doesn't have even have a single vanilla server besides this one>>2522005all the servers are dead
>>2522441>all the servers are deadShame, guess there's no reason to bother playing it then?
>>2522477The point is that this one isn't dead. Or wasnt, before it died.>>2522159Just don't get killed.
>>2522500>before it diedWhat killed it?
>>2522502Admin drama and some form of vulnerabilities in the server? Idk really, I only remember it had a lot of people, relative to other tera servers at least.
>>2522513And no one's coming back?
>>2522519Lots of people coming back it seems. I don't have numbers though, maybe they are just very vocal. I'm gonna try it and see how the server does before getting too emotionally attached.
>>2522531Have they said if they plan to eventually add the non-classic classes and content updates that TERA had and then eventually do custom content? Or is it just gonna be the same content for the rest of time?
>>2522541The admin said the new classes will come eventually and they will remove the race-lock and gender-lock on them. It's up to you to believe them or not tho
>>2522548Would it even be possible to port the Elin animations of Reaper and Ninja to the non-Elins?
>>2522550
>>2522555Bleh, guess I'll give it a try at some point too then and see what happens. Not like I got shit else to do lately.
>download and install TERA Classic>go to launch it>blips onto my toolbar for a split second and then closes with no trace of it in Task Manager anywhere>site says the server is up and everythingNevermind, guess I'm not fucking trying it.
>>2522825>check the log file for why this is happening>it can't find the specified file>even after installing through the FULL INSTALLER that should have packaged every needed file for installationFuck it. These people are fucking RETARDED. Can't even make an installer that installs the game correctly. An hour of both downloading and installing this shit just to be met with this. Holy fuck what a god damn joke.
Worked on my machine
>>2522825it opens tomorrow retard
>>2521299>no model updates-- especially those kinda gross faces the Elins have, 3D modeling has come a long fucking way since 2011 and it falls short of current standards nowYou seem new to private servers. These kind of changes rarely if ever occur at all.
>>2522855>dig a bit deeper>requires fucking something called WebView2 for some fucking reason>this is linked to fucking Microsoft Edge which has not been updated on my machine in over 5 years cause I have a Windows Update Blocker to keep the jeet code out>opening the launcher at all relies on bloated Shitdows in the form of Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime according to the log.txt fileI ain't touching that if I have to actually download anything made by Microsoft after COVID.>>2522873Nope, read above. It won't even open the launcher itself. You can usually at least open a launcher program even when servers are down. Plus the site says servers are up.
>>2522882Sounds very lazy and that they shouldn't have even bothered then.
>>2522894wait until you find out that the server was AI-coded by an indian man
>>2522899I'd believe it since they decided to have the launcher rely on fucking Microsoft Edge functionality at all.
>Microsoft Edge WebView 2 RuntimeWhat the actual fuck would compel a person to run a launcher through something so shit?
>>2522894>Nope, read above.it opens tomorrow, retard, the site is wrongholy fuck
>>2522923>they can't even code their own site properlyThat's honestly JUST as bad anon.
>>2522921Not to defend popo, but that shit is what a lot of modern launchers use now. Real desktop application devs are dead. Now everything is a fucking web app using a desktop wrapper.
>>2522927The first post in the thread literally says so.
Please, burgerbros and eurobros. You already have enough votes. Help your bros from the south.
>>2522441tera has had tons of vanilla servers on this exact patch/source because that's what's released on ragezone, anyone can fire up a server for this, actually doing something with it is the hard part
>>2522935None of my other games seem to use it. Not even the ones with actual launchers too.>>2522944The retard's site should accurately reflect it then.
>>2522956No one wants the huehue's invading their first world servers and us inflating the votes for you won't put actual players down there to make them actually feel the need to KEEP said servers up for you for longer than a month.
>>2522965The server says open beause the admin is inside testing. I agree with you though its confusing
>>2522974Bruh. Does this nigga not know how to manually set the site status to Offline or something?
https://www.twitch.tv/kanonxoOSTO getting the streamer boost
>>2523049lol there's no hope for OSTO, this will just hype people up for classic
>>2523049I know OSTO devs are from here so you should get in there and butter this guy up, normalfags love when private server devs aren't invisible
>>2523049Oh cool! If this doubles the number of players, then we might have enough for a 10 man!
>>2523049All 4 OSTO fans will migrate to Classic tomorrow anyway.
classic will probably have 100 people online at most desu we will need the big streamers to come back to reach the numbers we had before
I usually tank or heal but since I've never played this game would dps be better for a first time through?
>the put some anticheat shit that makes it impossible to run on linux>linux support is coming, but it's not a priority Welp, maybe no one else will be able to play until they support Linux. Just saying.
>>2523344>maybe no one else will be able to play until they support Linux. Just saying.kek, based
Reminder that all Tera servers got hit by the same hacker that exposed plaintext passwords.Further reminder that teraclassic is the only one out of those servers to also fucking leak everyone's paypal info and shut down for months because of it.You are a fucking retard for trying to congregate around the actual worst server option out of the few that remain, if this isn't just popo shilling his own shit (as he's known to do)
>>2524663people just want to play on a populated server and classic happened to be the one that got picked up by streamers and caused a revival
Furthermore, hearing that OSTO has implimented their own "anticheat" is only cementing that you are even more retarded after other "Oldschool" brands of private servers did the same thing, with the same results. So you certainly could do better than THAT at least.
>>2524724Holy shit
>>2524724what does an OSM server have to do with tera? is it the same anticheat or something? this sounds like a big reach
When is classic coming out?
>>2525922in 6 hours
>>2525941>6 hoursDamn I got work. Guess the elin erp will have to wait.
>>2525944Don't worry, this is Popo's server. Something will definitely go wrong and it will be delayed for hours.
Will popo pretend to be his own best friend again and give himself the best loot that's not even in the loot droptables while forcing the rest of us to slave away for basic mats that even enmasse was kind enough in supplying us with?
Is it up yet?
looks like the site is down
>>2526533Works for me, but the Server is stated as Offline now.
>>2526550I refreshed and it works now so whatever happened is fixed for the site at least
>>2526446it's up now
I don't know what class to play bros...
>it's up>still get this issue; >>2522894>[1780148061] [tauri] application run failed: runtime error: failed to create webview: WebView2 error: WindowsError(Error { code: 0x80070002, message: The system cannot find the file specified. })YeahNo, this shit can die if it unironically needs up to date MicroJeet Edge functionality for any reason at all. I'm not letting the jeetcode into my machine.
>it's real>it requires up-to-date Microjew Edge code to runFucking disgusting, and some of you niggers were SHILLING this in other boards?? May as well have told us to go download outright malware or something.
>>2526607popo is insane and incredibly incompetent, I don't understand why some TFTniggers are so drawn to classic and the shitfest that it was. It was literally the shittiest tera server with the most dishonest creator behind maybe those russian scammers. He literally pretended to be his own roomate so he could suck up to the strongest players in hopes that they would carry him in schm (imagine sucking at schm while giving yourself bis gear that nobody else in the server had), meanwhile as popo he lied to everyone saying he's fixing a shitty patch he implemented a week ago that people begged to reverse. I seriously don't get the shilling, did everyone just memoryhole this? Like I know we're desperate for tera servers but I wouldn't stoop this low again
>>2526632the only metric that matter is "does the server have people playing it?"
PLS log in I need a tank or dps for FOK.
>password retrieval isn't workingAlright not playing again.
>>2528926i literally just did it
>>2528977Well it's not working for me and that's literally all that matters.
Any TERA servers NOT run by retards that use Electron (incompetent coder) AND isn't run by a retard that causes nuclear-level drama just by existing due to his brown/muttoid ego that actually have people on them in NA?
pinpintail is our designated TC (tera classic) streamer btw!
>>2530769Starscape is your only hope.
>>2531259It's something at least, thanks anon.
>Classic didn't even make it to 400 online before it started losing players againI think it's time I accept that Tera is dead...
>400 ping from SAthe server is in canada not china wtf is this
>>2532341You really should have accepted that like 10 years ago.
>>2532341Back to Starscape.
>>2532444It's very unstable for me. It goes from 160 to 300. It used to be a very stable 140 before the relaunch.

>>2532670It's going to be INTERNAL tranny drama, just like the first time.
hi from OSTO shadow council staff.we have efforts internally to get player count & player experience back on board, and someone is working on creating bots/NPCs to fix the imbalance in content popularity. those NPCs will fill Corsair's Stronghold since it requires 40 people, and possibly fill in leveling dungeons through BTTP. most normie PvPers are super excited for it so when that drops it'll def produce a spike in activity. keep us on your radar https://oldschool.to/ p.s. shoutout to funy 2hu cat and pantsu enjoyer miss yall
>>2533540>>2524724
>>2533545vro making that association is a stretch. staff are all chill at OSTO and aren't schizoids like popo @ classic, we're just here to provide a base for people to have fun and hang out.
>>2533560After OSM and OSR doing the exact same thing, its suicide to brand as "oldschool" as there will always be autists like me here to point it out and deter others based on historical precedence.
>>2533567fair, but there has been none of that in the past 8 months plus majority of the playerbase won't be from here anyway. I'm just promoting it in the hopes that you guys here will be able to have fun without constant server attacks or dealing with all the grief popo is causing to everyone here.appreciate your input, hopefully people can take your warning with a grain of salt and judge for themselves.
>>2533580> plus majority of the playerbase won't be from here anywayThanks for the tip, i'll go find them.
>>2524724"Old school" is a common term for something that is old, not a brand or a team name, you fucking retard. It's basically a synonym of classic or vintage. Some random maplestory server has nothing to do with OSTO.
>>2533636Yeah we thought the same thing until they showed up with a RO server under the same name (after yeou)
>>2518386>Willingly going back to a server who's admin was revealed to be a complete charlatan with zero coding experience, who strung people along for months with false promises of nonexistent updates, and shut their original server down after its database got breachedAnyone who falls for this deserves what's coming to them.
the troons want this game shut down for good, they view it as a victory since it's one of the few games with sexualized lolis with shortstack aesthetics. you can tell they don't even play video games, they assume every private server is a turtle wow-like. this points to hired political activists.
This is shady as hell, i'm putting with the console version at the moment.
>>2537717I saw osto is making the lolis black so maybe the activists will play this woke shit
Does starscape allow me to play dressup without grinding my life away
>>2538499Yes, fashion coupons are easy to farm
Post elin butts
>>2538406what?

My fucking tablet is trying to lure me back.
does this shit work on linux?>inb4 ask discordfuck off
>>2546488osto has a linux support thread (in d*scord) but classic doesn't
If only it didn't have the awful world pvp
If I want collect all the costumes, which server is the easiest to do it?
>>2546488Works on Starscape, the hurdle with all pservers is the launcher.
>>2546488No because Popo is a nigger
>>2521299>Classic server is just the classic game>why would anyone playTHAT'S WHY, RETARD
>>2553065>just the classic gameit's not
Playing Classic again made me realize how good OSTO was. It's a shame it was released just a few days before a new chink gacha scam dropped and you faggots left.
>>2557834>The exhumed corpse of Blue Protocol somehow killed nu-/terag/ and by extension OSTOWant to say I can't believe it, but I sort of get why.Even if TERA is very obviously the better game between the two, it's also an old, niche MMO with limited content and a painfully slow endgame progression curve (for either v31 or v100). Nu-/terag/'s run was already on its way out by the time Star Resonance showed up, and people who were just in it for the animu aesthetic ran off to try whatever was most recent in that category, even if said newer game ended up being pretty terrible.
>Classic>Reaper>Gunner
>>2557869>Want to say I can't believe itIs it really that hard to believe a community as retarded as this fell for the BP scam when they're willingly diving on the live popo grenade a second time in a row?
>>2557834>>2557869uh, didn't that come out long before OSTO did?
Wake me up when there's a server with no el*n whatsoever. I want to play with humans, not brainfried pedocoomers.
>>2560621TERA's community does seem to have terrible taste in servers, gravitating towards the worst possible option despite better alternatives existing.>Classic instead of OSTO>Agaia instead of ArboreaNA and SEA only have one choice for their v100 servers, and EU only has one for v31, so they're off the hook for now. But why people mass deluded themselves into being ride or die for Classic when it was proven to be a total scam is just baffling, especially when OSTO is right there.
>>2561766it's just herd mentality, everyone else is on that server so i will go to that server too, which makes sense in a dead game that requires people to do anything
>>2561766What happened to TERA-Europe anyway?
>>2561775Yeah, that's true. Still frustrating to know things COULD have been better for this game at-large, if exponentially worse servers didn't suck up all of the playerbase first. Arborea in particular had a ton of promise and was generally much better received than Agaia overall, but the latter came out first, and that's where everyone went. First server advantage seems to be the only thing the TERA community cares about, regardless of the server's actual quality.>>2561793No idea. Looks like EU-Classic is still going, but you're right, visiting the regular TERA-Europe page just redirects to EU-Classic.Maybe their v100 server was dying out and they pivoted to v31 instead, since it's not like there's another alternative for that version in that general region.Also, correcting myself from earlier: Apparently there IS another v100-era NA server available these days, WynTERA, with revamped dungeon bosses and progression model. Could be interesting, but I'm tied up with other vidya at the moment to check it out.
OSTO devs figured out how to add hairs from brawler and ninja patches... yet this fuckass useless cunt Popo can't add jack shit to classic nor make the grinding experience any less miserable. LOL
>>2561911they should add brawler and ninja :)
>>2561954Nahhhh
>>2561954Why not play starscape or agaia?
>>2561971Apex gameplay is shid
>>2561911their also making the elins black. DEI wokeslop
>>2518386Knowing what I know about this game, I'd never wanna play it with anyone here or not here. Classic just wasn't built for this retard climate.don't wanna wipe queen because some retard said he got hit by donut for vibes
>>2522513I warned the retarded guy as a sign of goodwill and he didn't listen to me so I told everyone what the exploit was instead. I will do it a second time.
>>2563981okay
>>2563981Don't worry, queen is easy mode on classic since it's outdated content
>>2561823How many people are on that server though? 5? 10?
>>2564880Anything past queen was boring because that's when they started adding all the 5m cd self revive classes
I made an Elin guild if anyone wanna join and like Elins
>>2533560>staff are all chill at OSTOOSTO has Icye, a tranny who cheated like fuck and sperged the fuck out on the official forums when EME decided to cap daily logins from unique characters(or was it accounts?) to 30 per day because they were one of the players who sucked up to Meishu and got help with cheat mods and text clients so they could make mountains of money with hundreds of botted accounts "teleport hacking" (that's not exactly what it was but it did allow you to teleport characters in ways that were normally impossible) for vanguard dailies and other shit.Icye is a monumental faggot and did a ton of fucked up shit back on the official servers. Why would anyone trust a cheating tranny who compulsively lied?
>>2574771proof on the tranny part? don't care about the rest
>>2575052Icye was arguably the most popular Tera streamer back when the game was still alive. He used to spend all day farming Kelsaik on stream and a large part of the reason why he managed to get such a big audience is because he would blatant cheat but he always switched to a BRB screen while cheating. In Kelsaik that meant running up to the gate, switching screens then macro jumping up the side to skip the gate entirely which shaved off a lot of time(the trash in the beginning is annoying even if you're geared because they spam knockdowns and it's difficult to keep them all grouped). He streamed with a voice changer because he still sounded like a guy at the time and hung out with other trannies.If you want proof just ask anyone who played back then(I think Icye was big in late 2013? Maybe 2014?) or dig up some of his old streams if they were archived anywhere. Very typical tranny voice changer voice.
>>2575071I think I found the person you're talking about but their twitch and youtube is empty apart from some ff14 speedrun, which tells me everything anyway.
>>2574771I haven't seen icye since the early days of osto. Pretty sure they left not long after launch.
>>2574317based>>2574595cringe

>>2585330I wish there was actual big breasts mods for Elins
osto has the glorious nippon anime voices now. Wonder why no one else does them
>>2588897OSTO doesn't feel old school at all. Lvling is WAY too fast and you have 80% of your skills at lvl 20. What the fuck?
>>2590391Sounds like a server for people who've played the game before and don't care about levelling for the 99th time
>>2590650Doesn't sound like an old school server
>>2590701its probably the most oldschool server you can play on account of having only the base classes, every other "classic server" has reaper and gunner
>cmd opens and closes each boot and powershell is phoning somewhere
>>2590391iirc it was so that new players could get a feel for their class earlier at the first dungeon
>>2593198They probably balanced it at launch but I remember it being completely fucking broken at launch, Zerk would get Esmash extremely early and basically one shot everything with it till lv40 or so
>>2590391Yeah that shit is mad gay figures the weebs are also pussies about a korean game
>>2590802Classic scans your PC for toolbox and other shit

downloaded starscape and somehow console manages to be more alive than any of these private servers
>>2636454tera is built to be a treadmill but none of the pservers are capable of adding new content so the treadmill doesn't exist, nobody goes back to pservers once they've finished the game
So what servers are there and what are their pro/cons?I actually never played Tera and want to try it
suh
>Tera classic finally added some new outfits, accessories, and weapon skins>You have to win CS 20 them to get one of the pirate outfits >You have to do 60 BTTP runs to buy the business suit >If you want the cool BTTP weapon skins you have to run it 120 times>None of these offers any way to get T6 feedstocks which is the biggest bottle neck for gearing right now since vanguards only give T6 feedstocks
>>2639704>only give T5 feedstocksMy bad
>>2639704the state of fashion there is in shambles
>>2639704i still don't understand why everyone latched onto that shitheap even after all the stupid shit that went down
>>2639993A big streamer played so people joined them and it was over for all the other servers
So if you guys know the best servers, where do we play then?
retard hereis it race locked classes?
>>2640337The only exclusively locked class is Reaper and it's Elin only. Some of the other ones have smaller racial choices though.
I like jerking off to Elin in Velika :3
I just log on to goon to Elin.
no lewds around, i have to goon to my own elin, is this weird?
>>2640320The one that has the dungeons you like
Why has no other Tera private server been as populated as Menma's?I just want other pervs to goon to Elin with...
>>2641306they actually did something different instead of just downloading a source off ragezone and putting it up
