POEman553 Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 (edited) From this link, it appears officially. Curiously, the FAQ doesn't mention PS4 version, but it is unknown if it will be affected. It would be wise to finish the Platinum if you have it on your profile. https://gameforge.com/en-GB/play/tera/news/dce17483-d9a7-4c92-92ad-a83f186067f8 Edited April 22, 2022 by POEman553 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BestUsername---- Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 The publishers FAQ and other social media pages state that only the PC version is shutting down at the moment. I believe the console and PC versions of the game have different publishers but seeing as it is Bluehole's, the developer for both versions, choice to stop working on the game and halt services, it's not out of the realm of possibility that Tera servers will eventually close on consoles. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDGES Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 I had a lot of good tme with this game, best 3rd person MMORPG I've played 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydoki Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 There's been a ton of shenanigans around publishers and who owns the rights for PC and console versions. Will definitely replay the game to 100% before this date, but the PS4 side might not be affected unless confirmed directly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamurotetsu Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 (edited) I've never played a proper MMO before, is this worth playing and getting the plat before the possible shutdown? Is it easy to learn, soloable, etc? Thanks for the honest replies, I think I'll leave this one, FFXIV is definitely on my list. Good luck anyone going for the plat.

Is it easy to learn, soloable, etc? If you can get/buy a Level 65 Scroll, it’s definitely doable. Everything in the game minus 3 of the end world bosses (and potentially the two final dungeon trophies, I never ran those dungeons alone, but you can queue/match for them at level 65-though it might take over an hour to match with a group) you need for the last two trophies is simple to solo at level 65 with the proper gear. As for if it’s worth playing....if you’ve never played an MMO, probably not-it’s fairly dated. And without the scroll, quite grindy once you reach level 40 (you need to get to level 65 to unlock all level-based trophies). The story is mindless, but the combat is decent. Unless you really like the designs of some of the races in this game, there are likely better free MMOs for PS4 out there that aren’t (potentially) about to shut down. I haven’t played any more recent ones that I would recommend over this one (I do NOT recommend Skyforge), so I’ll leave that to others.

As you can imagine free MMOs tend to be heavy on monetization; it's not a bad thing, and might be something that you very well could prefer - but I'd look into more sophisticated MMOs (ESO and FFXIV are my top suggestions). I have only played Tera a few years ago, but I logged in recenrlty just to check it out, and even as a level 1 character my skills bar has already been riddled with skills and actions - not a very beginner-friendly experience to figure a ton of things out. That's why more premium MMOs tend to have a more fleshed-out flow, where you are slowly introduced to mechanics one by one.

Can’t speak to FFXIV, but I played a bit of ESO on PC and despite liking The Elder Scrolls franchise quite a bit (Morrowind is my favorite), never quite got a feel for it. IMO, it’s less MMO beginner-friendly than Tera. And the trophy list for it on PS4 is intimidating AF. That being said, I’d probably attempt it again on PS4 (I wanted to like it) if I could justify perpetually paying for a PS Plus subscription (unfortunately, I cannot ATM).

StarWolf3000 Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 I don't think the console version will be shut down at the same time. The development of the PC version was done by Bluehole Studio, which is now a subsidiary under KRAFTON, and it's a development team directly under KRAFTON that develops and publishes the console version. And there have been no announcements from the official channels of the console version regarding this shutdown. This following screenshot is from the Steam forums: Even the official announcement on the korean site of the developer just explicitely mentions the PC version and no console version: https://playtera.co.kr/news/notice/914 Official site for the console version: https://tera-console.com/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just last month they were giving a level 65 scroll for free, and right now they are giving another if you login for 25 days from 14th April to 13th May. There's not enough days for that if you start now but anyone interested should keep an eye on any kind of event like that. Maybe after 13th May there will be another of those scrolls to grab. It brings the completion time from 50 hours to 10. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dantes_994 Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 I loved the game back when it came out, it's too bad that it's getting shut down. Hope there are more fun and original MMO's like it in the future 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MtalCat Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 I got the platinum a long time ago, and enjoyed it. Better work on any missing trophies you have, cause this could shut down any day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post timpurnat Posted April 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 27, 2022 (edited) I recently got the platinum again on AS version. If you buy level 65 scroll, you can get the platinum in less than 15h. I was playing as Archer and I was able to solo everything except the lvl68 bosses. You can buy teleport scrolls for dungeons from a specialty store merchant in Velika. The only reason it takes 15h is because you need to rush the story to the level 51 quest "search and destroy" to be able to access Akasha's Hideout dungeon. For level68 bosses just spam in the chat for help and team up with a high gear level player, 90% of the time you will find someone and they will kill the boss in a few mins solo lol. I also recommend buying Village Altus and a travel journal or elite status which includes both. Makes boss hunting and story way easier and faster I am only not sure if you can buy an lvl65 scroll if the game is not the same region as your account because it's a microtransaction and you need to buy it using real money. I got mine from an event a while ago. If you are really patient you can get one if you do 25 consecutive logins Edited April 27, 2022 by timpurnat 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warpedsavior Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 So how troublesome is it to get the boss trophies currently? In regards to needing to get the first hit on them that is. I’m thinking of possibly starting this soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
