Went inactive for a little over 3 months, what I miss?

[vg_geek86]

Havnt played since the holidays due to career reasons, wondering what all Ive missed. Are photons still an arm and a leg? Im guessing *or hopeing* there are more missions to be played. Is the economy shot, have hax surfaced, etc etc etc.

[jayster]

Content since december has probably doubled/ trippled. If you play pc/ps2 then hacks came and went, sega fixed the hacking problem and did server wipes, but the effects of it still left a mark on the econmony, inflation. If you play on xbox360 then no hacks yet.

[shotsfired]

nothing....... seriously...... maybe some new missions and clothes............ ST just pullin us along...... bringing out an expansion soon without even finishing the orginal game....... boo ST.

[vg_geek86]

Sega did something about the hax? Wow, to bad it inflated the economy, but Im surprised Sega acted so quickly on it. Good on'em.

[VanHalen]

Photons sell at my store for 400 meseta but I'm probably out(well my Megi-photons never sell so they might be there).

I'm not on pc/ps2 but I know they patched the source which let people hack and did server wipes of illegit items and banns still occur for being in pocession of 'hacked' items, ie meseta, they couldn't get rid of that. So be careful about where you get your meseta, some players are being banned. But fronm what I know, there is no more hacking in the pc/ps2 version.

And to the other person who said sega barely released anything, that is very untrue. Since december we have advanced classes, A weapons, A armors, some S weapons, S rank missions, SS rank missions, ultimate PA's, new missions, and more. Usually a couple new missions or mission ranks plus some other minor updates every 2 weeks. Enough to keep me interested for sure. Oh and level 80 cap so far!

Ive never heard of Rouge shortcut on Moatoob, what is it? http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_lol.gif http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_quickdraw.gif http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_beer.gif

[Mikedot]

Yeah... I haven't played PSU PS2/PC for awhile and I'd like to know how many people play now? Also: Was their any interesting events that took place?

[A2K]

Do we get one of these every couple of days or something? How long have you been gone? Go to the official site (http://www.phantasystaruniverse.com) and scroll down to whatever update was closest to your departure, then go up from there.

There are less people on PC/PS2 now, because of cheating that has come and gone but left its mark. More people are on Xbox 360 mainly now because of a couple of free demo events and a complete lack of cheating. The Japanese side of things has probably ebbed a little, but they probably still hold the strongest community.

You missed a few GM events (picture taking and item giveaway), but nothing that you would kill yourself over. There were holiday lobby theme changes as well. Right now the cherry blossoms are up on the colony and Neudaiz.

It's a wonderland of candy, elves, Chuck Norris, and win.

Naw, seriously, it's one of the least popular missions on Moatoob despite it's easiness. It's a party mission that requires 4 players to get an S rank, but not to complete it. There are robots there, so that's probably a reason why it isn't so popular.

We get the S2 version of it this Friday and I predict it will be all but forgotten because of S2 Easter Peril. That's why I really wish that it has a much better reward that Easter Peril.

Sadly, Eastern Peril drops > Rogue Shortcut drops.

I love em, too. Killer Shot makes quick work of them. XD I solo missions like Grove and Train Rescue for fun. And y'know, what I've gotten some ok drops. [B]Rokusairi and [B] Creasword. The Creasword is probably the rarest of all Crea Weapons. Sadly, I don't have a human character to use it with. Although, I'm thinking of creating one.

[SuperRygar]

to OP - you missed EVERYTHING. you might as well just kill yourself now

I'm a Wartecher though, no Killer Shot for me. ;D Good ol'fashioned Gizonde and Lighting weapons.

Dam shame. I actually like this mission cause it's relatively easy compared to other moatoob stuff out there. And Moatoob is welcomed in my book as long as it's not parum. Kinda sick of parum at the moment. And I need Moatoob and Neudiz drops as well.

Oh. To the original poster:
You've missed the masses coming out and grinding the hell out of the following missions for MP points:
Moatoob counter: Bruce's Dungeon (currently ghost town now)
Parum: Labs (a few still grind this mission)
Parum: Crimson Beast (THE popularly overdone missions as of now).
