View Full Version : PSU-XBox 360: Just stop it with the crazy rumors and misinfo

I have heard the craziest things coming out of people's mouths. It's bad if the only thing I say into the mic recently is "um, no, you're wrong about that."

Icebreak is not coming out next month. I have no idea how this idea started, but it's rampant. People are stocking up on fire weapons, and are serious about this. I'm not even sure there will even be an Icebreak. Also, no ice frying pan. I'm not kidding about that one; somebody actually mentioned it would be available.

Leveling up your PM is not going to help your synth rates. This was more of an issue in FB, however. People spamming that one Neudaiz mission to max out their PM's battle levels.

In HSM, standing on the light switch will not make the Kagajabiri (sic?) stronger. I'd rather see what I'm doing when faced with one of these guys. Especially when someone's spamming PA's against it with a dark(!) weapon.

The funniest thing last night is some kid told me the crossbow gets 5 shots after level 21. I was using my 21+ crossbow at the time, firing it right in front of him...WTF? He also said you can only synth an ice Brand, but no other elements.

Okay, before this becomes a rant, I'll turn this into a discussion. 360 players, what crazy things have you heard on our servers? I hear a good one every night; I should keep a notebook to write some of this stuff down.


Edit: Oh, wow. Quintuple post. Is that a record? *hides*

Anyways, I've never heard ridiculous rumor such as those. Then again, maybe I have a natural defence for them, that I don't even hear or remember them XD
Or, it's just the Xbox community that's making things up (again).

I just got the game for 360, and I heard a bunch of people saying that AoI costs an additional $4.99 a month to play. And the color of room decorations affects synthing, not the squares but the decorations themselves.

About as much as SEGA could imagine Sonic on Hoverboards. (Talk about one game that looks kind of neat when viewing a movie at the starting line, and then witness the execution of the game after the starting line.) (And when I mean execution, I mean it with pretty much every definition of the literal word, at the same time).

But I heard even more stuff on this. Newmans will also be able to get photon SUVs.... but better than humans. This is because Newmans have lots and lots of powers. Just wait until they can channel their energies to turn invisible. Sneaking by crowds and monsters at a whim.

i read that on the internet, so it must be true.

You Pc/PS2 player have no idea how bad its getting on our server with nubcakes spreading rumors.

Everytime I'm on my low lvls, bullshit and lies just pour in through my headset. If the fact that the room deco, and human/newman special rumors still have not been purged wasn't bad enough, we now have such gems as...

- A black beast badge that dual weilds axes...(seriously wtf)
- Using neutral element weapons on neutral enemies increases damage... (apparently this nubcake didn't bother to even test it :/ )
- Feeding your pm food(ie. gourmet cake) while synthing can increase the success rate/ele %
- Her Secret Mission is being removed this week (I hear this every god damned week...)

My personal favorite
- Sega is removing the $10 monthly fee in September and updating the demo so it will be free for everyone to play... (lol... just no)

When I tried to correct someone on this last one the other day, the response I got was

"lol like a lvl 25 knows what he's talking about"

...I hate you.

DreamLocke
Aug 3, 2007, 11:42 AM
There still seems to be a number of people on the 360 servers who buy from the NPC shops lol.

I can also count a number of people who have no idea what that "fan" weapon I'm carrying. Although an obvious PSO vet claimed it was a harisen fan. Close...

Someone said that AoI will be a separate disc that you have to buy and is a separate game.

Casts will have an SUV where you turn into a giant Gundam-like robot like the nano-blast.

I've always wondered why people start spreading rumors. Like how before firebreak people were saying that all ban-photons would be erased from your inventory when the event started. What do they gain from doing it? Do some people just get a sick kick out of making people believe them?

I did make a killing selling ban photons for 2k a piece http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Sadly, this was actually during the firebreak event, so maybe this is more about how lazy the 360 community is.

That one probably spawned from the PSU art book (whatever it's called). I think somewhere in there it says that Magas Maggahna is Magashi's SUV.

I think people spread rumors because it makes them seem like they are informed about the game when in reality they are just pulling stuff out of their asses to look good.

Oh, also last night someone said if you are logged on when the server maintenance starts your character gets deleted.

That's kind of funny because not too long ago I came up with an idea for something like that. It's not really like an SUV but closer to something like a beasts nanoblast, and the Cast doesn't turn into a "Gundam-like" robot(because that would be stupid). It inolves transforming into something resembling a Grinna Bete. I originally thought of this after facing down 3 of by myself on an S2 mission. I didn't tell a whole lot of people because I wasn't trying to start a rumor.

Seriously, you 360 people got it all wrong. Let me break down the aoi info that us awesome pc/ps2 players have:

1) As mentioned above, aoi will have giant mecha suv/pb for all races. The meter will tick down as you move/fire missles/lazers/rappy cannons/etc. However...
2) the new bosses will be so incredibly huge and overpowering that all 6 of you teammates will have to use their suv at once and combine into one giant mecha (i.e. combiners from transformers...thanks for stealing that one, sega ><). each player will make use of controls for their specific part of the mech, so teamwork will finally be essential.
3) the 4.99 extra fee will only be for those who want the special godzilla room deco and mech suv costume. you don't really have to get it...
4) sega will remove the fee to play regular psu, due to them shutting down the servers. If you don't upgrade to aoi they will delete your account. also, if you fail to sign up for the 4.99 godzilla subscription, sega will log into your account and roll the dice command to see if they delete your account or allow you to keep it and play aoi. 1-3=delete, 4-6=play.

you guys need to get your facts straight.

However, I can make a cast, decide to wait 20 or so more levels past 140 so it can transform into a Jetfighter, but has the odd unexplained urge to want to kill that car in the lobbies. Maybe it's got to do with that odd purple insignia on it or something? I don't know. I thought they were simply bringing back section IDs with that thing, but I could be wrong.

oh yes we do every time we post about the crappy economy we get "that's cuz you have haxeta" which noone or very few people do anymore...

also the "rumor" about your char getting deleted if you are logged in when maintenance starts...it's possible but not likely that your character will get damaged. Basically, it could happen, but if it does you have really really bad luck.

I remember back when Bruce runs were new, I got into an argument with some arrogant noob about what the time limit was for the mission, I was saying 18:00, and he was saying 17:52, and saying that he bought the guide for PSU which states it as such. So I told him that if he was so sure, lets make a 10k meseta bet out of it. So for the rest of the mission, he's insulting me to his friends and saying how I'm probably not even going to pay up after HE wins. So anyway, its safe to say I won the bet, but just as I figured, he didnt pay up, and was using the excuse that I must of purposely not killed a monster so we wouldnt get an S Rank(Even though his friend was with me the whole time).

Famitsu cup will be sponsored...by maxim http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

S2 rank fans in AoI will have four blades when at lvl 31.

Talk of an "Acrotranser" who gets every single weapon at A rank...ummm...yeah

We will get eight characters when AoI comes out (I know that this is related to the japanese worlds thingy...I guess it could be possible)

Experience and drop rates will triple in AoI.

There is a glitch which allows for the firing of 3 shots from a pistol.

There will be a rocket launcher

Feeding your pm food with an obvious element will increase the likelyhood of synthing an item of that element (i.e. dogma drop before ank dedda...)

feng shui...nuff said

The Black heart will form a set with the Blackheart.

The black heart makes you immune to megid

Whitill wings will hit the online mode as part of the "Maxim Cup"

That's all I've heard so far.

1) Fans already have four blades at level 31...they have 2 at 1-10, 3 at 11-20, 4 at 21-30, and during the beta, they (along with things like the Shotgun and such) did not gain a fifth blade at 31. There's also a chance of S2-5 equipment, as the icons for S2-5 have been found in the client's files. Not saying they will exist, but it may be possible.

2) That probably came from the increased experience/drop rates in the beta.
