You are here: This event will be an introduction to where we are now, so the community can track our progress in the next few months. Participants will not be under an NDA and can freely share their experiences with everyone. More importantly, this group will help us test another very important aspect of Tera: our game servers.
En Masse hit a huge milestone in January by launching and configuring, for the first time, our final remote game server hardware. Until now, we've used in-house, temporary hardware for our servers. Not anymore! This is the final hardware you'll log into when you join the game. The Community Play Event will help us test this configuration and make adjustments. As you might imagine, bringing a game like Tera Gold to life in North America is no mean feat, and getting our servers right is extremely important.
A couple of months later, we'll host a second event-this one open to a far larger group. This event will help us further refine our server architecture and plan for contingencies. This will also be the first test of our other huge project, the account management and support systems for Tera Gold. More importantly, it will put the game client in the hands of many more people(Tera online Gold), so they can see the continued progress we've made.
