Didnt receive any trading cards?

[Rats]

I downloaded TERA a LONG while ago. I have 99.4 hours recorded on the game and I dont have a single card for it. Its not even popping up in my badges so I can actually look at the cards TERA has. My friend who plays the game with me got all of his card drops and everything. I dont know what's going on or what to do about it. Any help?

Tera is free to play, and does not drop cards over time. Instead, you get 1 card for every $9 USD spent on the in-game store.

How much did you spend on it through Steam? How much did your friend spend?
As a F2P game, you do not get any cards just for adding it to your Library, you must spend 9$ per drop. Playtime prior to earning drops is irrelevant.

If you want to look at your Tera Badges page:

My friend who has the cards, did not spend a single dollar on the game. I didnt know we had to pay $9 tho. But that doesnt explain my friend who got 3 cards

It appears Tera was originally subscription based, before changing to free-to-play in 2013.

Me and my friend got it early 2015 so we werent apart of the subscription. Neither of us spent anything on the game. Could it be him redeeming fashion coupons for something that allowed him the cards?

Bought/Traded for the cards. Bought/Traded/Created a booster pack and opened it. Spent $27-$35 and forgot. Some obscure bug. Kind of a moot point since you have the correct number for someone who hasn't made any purchases.

If Tera wasn't a F2P game, you would be able to get 4 cards through playing, not 3 (You get half the set rounded up)

I can't see why redeeming a coupon would grant him cards, but I honestly don't know. It's possible Steam considers the redemption as a purchase.

I think we just figured out how he got the cards. A while ago, his mom played the game and she had spent money on it. Time passes, he downloads the game on Steam and accidentally logs into his mom's account. Steam saw that transactions were made and that account had spent money, so they gave him the cards

Thats the only logical conclusion we could come to

If you want cards for F2P games; instead of spending $9/£9; just grab them from the market for a few pennies depending on the game.

Cheapest way to get the cards/badge, but it won't qualify you for booster pack.
