It won't be. People play on Korean servers from Europe just fine, and En Masse has stated that no IP block is in effect for Europeans.Hopefully playing on the NA Beta servers from EU won't be a problem too.
I pre-ordered from them yesterday and they have yet to charge my card.How do they charge on the digital pre-order? Charge on the day of release or the time of pre-order?
1.) There is a medium sized patch every month or so which typically adds a new instance or some other form of significant content. Every three months there has been a free "mini-expansion" which bumped up the level cap or added new landmass and instances. This month's patch is raising the level cap and adding three new instances, as well as a new zone.Question for anyone who played the K-Tera, could answer my questions it would be appreciated.
How often is content added to the game?
What do you feel are the games weakness? I've heard its not been very popular in Korea was curious if it was because of some very big over glaring flaw.
What the leveling system like quest based? Grinding? 5 man raiding?
This is more of a general question for anyone but steam release?
I looking forward to this game, it seems like a nice change from what I saw!
A question though, since the first post specifically mentions NA in the beta schedule, is it known yet if a EU pre-order will also allows access to the closed beta events? I looked around and couldn't find any info regarding that so I'm curious.
can't wait. I especially like the reserve your name early thing. But I would have really liked an authenticator instead of a compass. Really who needs a compass? At least an authenticator would have helped with account security.
What's TERA's character customisation like? Do you get talents (several trees)/allocated stats etc.
I don't like MMOs where you feel like you gain nothing when you level.

I'm not going to preorder a MMORPG sight unseen. Hopefully I get into one of the closed betas.
When Amazon updates their page with beta access, you could pre-order from them since you can cancel whenever before shipping.
I believe you can buy a pass for 4.95£ which includes beta access and can be applied to your product purchase at a later date. Considering that En Masse and Frogster are working closely together on this, their clients will also likely include beta access.
I'm currently at work and having trouble getting around the IP redirect on my iPhone so I will not be able to post European pricing and other information until later today.
I believe they're also enforcing an IP block for the Asia region on the NA servers.
I saw a M rating on the box pictures.i wonder how much they censored it...are they going for a T or M rating for the NA version?
M, I guess. You'll still see females running around showing more skin than armor, I believe it's just the Elin race that got some censoring.i wonder how much they censored it...are they going for a T or M rating for the NA version?
Damn you north americans requiring the sensuality to be toned down and cleavage to be covered up! Damn you all to hell! I write this from my own PST timezone or Pacific Northwest
Only Elins, and as I've stated before, that will be patched out by fans.i wonder how much they censored it...are they going for a T or M rating for the NA version?
Yes.

"En Masse will block IPs based on region. Asia, Africa, Russia, and the Middle East are included on the block list. While we appreciate that there are players in these regions who would enjoy playing on En Masse servers, it's unfortunate that the vast majority of Internet traffic we see from these regions are from cyber-criminals relating to account theft, gold-farming and other hacking behavior."
Translation: We don't have a good staff or support system to combat RMT/bots. Let's just IP ban the majority of the world and help this offsets our weaknesses.
I'll give SWTOR credit here. I was expecting a lot of rmt and account phishing attempts. I've only received one via ingame mail and have seen zero offers in chat channels.
