TERA is for NA & EU only?

2012-01-30T16:34:07Z

“En Masse will block IPs based on region. Asia, Africa, Russia, and the Middle East are included on the block list.” according to En Masse’s support page. It simply means that even English-speaking players from the South East Asian region will be blocked. I am actually looking forward to try on this game this summer but this article is disappointing.

Will En Masse IP block based on region?
To keep the quality of service high for players within North America we have decided to disable IP addresses from which fraudulent traffic originates. We encourage players in these regions to participate on servers specifically designated for their area.

We block IP addresses used by hackers
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.

What about proxies?
Services that promise to improve your ping and decrease lag may sound promising, but they are frequently used by hackers and criminals who want to remain anonymous. Although we do not block them by default, a proxy or server host will be blocked if it becomes a popular tool for criminal behavior.

Playing TERA outside of North America
If you want to play TERA with friends in another country, here’s what you need to know:
You can play TERA on En Masse servers from North America, South America, Europe and Oceania.
En Masse has a license to operate TERA game servers in North America. This means that if you are in North America, South America, Europe (excluding Russia), and Oceania (Australia, New Zealand, Micronesia, Melanesia, and Polynesia) you can play on En Masse Servers.
