yes, getting a SUV from a casino sounds pretty sweet. but i would like to be able to see an entire list just so we know what to expect.

Nov 18, 2007, 01:48 AM

idk if anyone has an entire list, it sbeen asked before but no one knows i guess....

its jsut some decorations, really really low percent striking weapons (like 1% light and stuff XD)

and a chainsawd but the casino weapons gain 1atp and 1TP a grind so they arent worth it at all.

the only thing relaly worth it there are the SUV, some decos, songs, and maybe a chainsawd.

Biollante

My pleasure. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif

Hang tight, as I'm actually adding a few things to it as we speak. Some stuff was added with the most recent Japanese update that I forgot to include.

kinda hoping for cockfighting and other illegal gambling acts nut oh well,add Russian roulette where the loser loses all his weapons and a scape doll! http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

OK, Biollante. The list is updated and complete. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Biollante

Nov 18, 2007, 02:11 AM

That was going to be my next question. What gets added next and when, I'll keep checking back. I also was curious how far behind the english servers are for the japanese ones. It seemed like the famitsu cup was soo long ago. thanks in advance!

gryphonvii

Nov 18, 2007, 02:14 AM

c'mon guise if you really want texas hold'em that bad we'll get sly, mecca, and doom and play it tomorrow allright?

Ack. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_lol.gif From memory, the weapons were there from the start, along with Ascension Gift and Freeze Trap EX. Five or so of the discs were there at launch as well as Showtime, Hot Seat, King's Chair and Deer Scare. A lot of other decorations, too, but I can't be much more specific than that. More recent additions include the "Gothic" series and the discs "Moatoob" and "Alfort Tylor." Those last two were released along with Episode 3 Chapter 2. Likewise, "Habirao F.D." was released when that field became available. As far as where we stand compared to the Japanese servers, I think we're about two months behind.

Oh, one other thing, certain items will be rotated out of the exchange shop's circulation. I know that some of the Roman series items have been replaced by others, namely the Gothic series. However, as time passes, older items will return, kind of like our seasonal decorations and redecoration tickets.

who cares about prizes. there should be strip poker with the hot beast girl.

Biollante

Nov 18, 2007, 02:28 AM

maybe she IS a prize! eh? eh?

gryphonvii

Nov 18, 2007, 02:37 AM

put her in your room and she dances whenever someone walks in, and they could"donate" meseta and you'd get it.

I guess to stay on topic...sort of...has anything been said about differnt casino games coming in the future? my guess is probably not till the NEXT expansion, if ever.

Biollante

Nov 18, 2007, 02:53 AM

OH!! (Sorry for the double post) I herd that the coins can't be sold or purchased for meseta. does that mean that the prizes are the same way?

gryphonvii

Nov 18, 2007, 09:53 AM

coin s can't be bought or sold, you get one silver from the casino per day, then you make it or break it.

Rashiid

Nov 18, 2007, 09:56 AM

Could just be lazy and wait each day to get a silver, then 20 days you'll have your SUV, or whatever item you desire. But where's the fun in that, amirite?

No, for now it's just slots and roulette. However, Japanese players have one other game that they can access on their cell phones. They can play poker against various NPCs to earn more Vol Coins to use in-game. I don't anticipate seeing anything like this outside of Japan, however.

I know that certain prizes are that way, for example Ascension Gift, but I haven't seen anything that states all prizes are non-transferable.

Krisan

Nov 18, 2007, 09:59 AM

Actually, that's probably the smartest way to ensure getting anything in the Casino. I've never been one to trust gambling to get me anywhere.. then again, that might just be because my luck with gambling seems to suck horribly. <_<

For pictures and other information, just search for "Voloyal" on the db page (http://www.pso-world.com/items/psu/).

As mentioned, the prize list will expand and rotate. I'm not sure if we'll receive certain things like the Halloween music disc this year. Some of it maybe "out of season" now.

I'd recommend passing on most of the weapons. From what I've seen, only one stat is affected by grinding on those weapons and they start with very poor stats.

Well.. It isn't necessarily a bad idea to get them. I mean, yea, the base stats are a bit lower from the real thing, and the only thing that goes up with grinding is PP, but.. the PP actually grinds quite a bit higher than normal to make up for it.

While perhaps not ideal for combat, these could make very useful backup weapons.. or in the case for Forces, very handy for tech chaining.

Yeah casino weps would be perfect for attacks and spells which don't take ATP or TP into account like Buffs and Giresta.

You can't obtain cons any other way, and because of that, you can't obtain prizes any other way. For those of you who think you're smart and want to have others or your own alts (on a different account) drop a casino item in your room, you can't. They pretty much isolated casino items to your account only.

I'm sorry, but I'm not going to wait 49,500 days before I get my King's Chair >.>

Why does my throne cost so much?! Bah! It's for Saber, so I'll get it soon enough! I just hope Lady Luck is on my side...or this could take quite a while http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_no.gif

Nov 18, 2007, 11:46 PM

I'm just glad I don't want anything listed so far. Only things I'm after that might be there is the Madness the Machine SPARX music disk.

And Saber, it's only 495 days. You get 100 copper (1 silver) a day, and the King's Chair is 4 Gold, 95 Silver.

Jao

Nov 18, 2007, 11:48 PM

so how does the music disc work?
are the old songs from pso?

Remedy

Nov 18, 2007, 11:53 PM

Buy disk
Insert into jukebox in room
Play music

And there was a picture with a full list that someone got somehow (Offline, I think?), but the list of what's actually available is on PSU-P.

Like I said, nothing in the casino appeals to me except maybe a Magical Wand/C to grind to 10/10 for a high-PP wand.

Nov 19, 2007, 12:14 AM

If i have a song in there already and i put another in there will the new one replace the old song or can we keep both?

Damn so we can't give the prizes to friends? That's not fun.

It just adds that song to your list of songs that you have available.

Ahhh..I was under the impression that it was 49,500 silver or something. It didn't really specify on PSU-Pedia http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime2.gif

Nov 19, 2007, 12:31 AM

So how bad are the odds on the roulette and slot machines? It sounds from all the complaining like you're more likely to leave the casino empty handed and are better off saving up coins once a day.

Is there AFK casino'ing too? LOL

TetsuyaHikari

Nov 19, 2007, 01:35 AM

The odds for roulette are ALWAYS terrible, lol. Well, there are always two easy bets to make in that. Just stick with betting on either Red or Black, OR....Even or Odd.

Going for specific numbers are ridiculous. Good luck landing on 00 to hit the jackpot http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

As far as the slots are concerned..I'm sure that would be the best idea. Slot machines always have at least like..six different combinations of winning or so. You could stay there for a little bit, get some money, then head over to the roulette table and double your winnings.

I wouldn't be surprised if you could set up an AFK system in the casino. If all the slot machine requires is a pull of a lever and they don't emulate inserting a coin, yeah..you could do it, lol.

Can anyone associate the titles of the songs to when those songs are played? For instance, "Moatoob" where on Moatoob is this song played?

"Save This World" - The opening theme for Phantasy Star Universe. (It's called starship earth!)
"Save This World - Orchestra Short Version -" - This plays on the planet select screen.
"Moatoob" - This is an orchestral version of Dagora City's theme.
"Alfort Tylor" - The theme of Alfort Tylor.
"Halloween" - Well, kind of obvious. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif
"Save This World - REMIX Version -" - The opening theme of Ambition of the Illuminus. (We will choose to fight!)
"Habirao F.D." - Theme of Habirao Forbidden District.
"Shitenkaku" - This is the theme of the Mt. Ohtoku lobby.
"Casino Voloyal" - Give you one guess! http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif
"Kimi no tame nara shineru" - "I would die for you." It's the theme to the DS game that was localized as Feel the Magic or Project Rub, depending on where you live. (Rub it!!)

They should've put a Sonic Adventure song in their since it was developed by ST
