First AotI Update

[Phetty]

looks like it'll be this Friday.
http://xbox360.phantasystaruniverse.jp/news/wis/?mode=view&id=121

[pokefiend]

I need translations before I go to school D:

[Kairi_Li]

I'm Chinese so I can make out some of the kanji.

- Episode 3 chapter 1 will be out.

-Water Temple mission will be out (I cannot recall the name of the mission nor the real name of the place.) Along with that kick ass new White Dragon.

-New lobby, the temple with the Shrine maiden that might be able to change your luck if you pay meseta. Its not guranteed though, but if you have 0 luck, not much to lose cept some cash.

-New weapons and armor will be released etc.

-New clothes as shown in the pics.

-The 1UP rewards will be implemented and it appears it will last for 3 weeks. I think.

Hope someone who knows JP fully can translate this.

[YUKI_N]

Apparently because of the rollback when AOI first came out, they're extending the 2 weeks of luck to 3. I hope this applies to PC/PS2 as well

Eff that, give us like 30%+ on Synth Rates http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_lol.gif

[Mysterious-G]

Am I blind, or are the new female cast parts on the picture old ones? >.>

[EspioKaos]

Episode 3 begins
* Chapter 1, "Despair and Hope," will be released. The GUARDIANS has begun to crumble as an organization, and individual members are looking for work wherever they can. In the midst of all of this, one day Maya calls on you to discuss certain matters.

New fields
* Pavilion of Air: Top
* Pavilion of Air: Bottom

New missions
* "Temple of Water" sends Guardians into the Pavilion of Air to take down the COG's latest weapon, Shiowa Hidoki, which is running amok due to terrorist sabotage.
* "White Beast" is a co-op mission which takes Guardians through the upper levels of the Pavilion, purifying escaped native creatures until finally confronting the deadly Alterzgohg!

New lobbies
* Pavilion of Air: Upper District
* Mt. Ohtoku: Shitenkaku

New items
* Many new weapons and line shields will be added.
* New clothes (male Fujifiji set, female Vata Vara set) and new CV parts will be added.
* New room decorations will be added to Variety Shop in Clyez City.
* The Casino Voloyal prize counter gets its first update with new room decorations and music discs.
* Shitenkaku's offertory box opens.

1Up Platinum Cup rewards
* All rewards from the Platinum Cup will be issued beginning with this update. As mentioned before, they will last for three weeks due to the 360 server's rollback. It is unknown currently if the extra week will apply to the English PC/PS2 servers.
* [B] Twin Fluor. Bulbs will be issued to everyone through their common box. Make sure you have an open spot so you don't miss out! Also, this prize must be claimed from your box by January 31, 2008. (In other words, just log in before then.)

---

If I have a chance once I get to work, I'll front page this update. Right now, I've got to get ready for work so I won't run late.

[amtalx]

I'm guessing that we aren't going to get S2s for the new missions...? Are the new missions harder at least, or will easymode continue?

[CelestialBlade]

Any info on the new room decos? Getting tired of my white picnic table D:

[HandOfThornz]

Excellent to hear the bonus is coming. finally can free up my storage to synth bits.
The thing that's a little frustrating is we haven'nt got AOI in EU still and it would have been nice, like the USA to collect a few AOI [B]'s to synth them with bonus.
lol it would be nice as compansation for not having AOI, to give us PS2 player's 3 weeks too!;)

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[Rashiid]

In theory, they will drop official 12* Brand Weapons (i.e: Killer Elite, Okarod, Bajura, etc.)

[Reipard]

No word on fixing the voice issues or really, ANY of the issues so far? I'm hoping they're just not announcing it, because ignoring it would be ridiculous.

[Rizen]

Better start looking for Sleep/Resists http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Neber! Freeze / Resist ft-effing-w!!!

[amtalx]

I bet the Killer Elite drops off a boss box. F#ckers...

[Hank]

Awesome. Time to hunt for a Yamata-Misaki board. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

[Shinou]

Awww that sucks, no new PA's yet.

[CelestialBlade]

Going by JP's update schedule, the update after this Friday should only be like two weeks away, so maybe we'll have those new PAs then. At least we aren't having to wait months for stuff anymore.

[Zeph-]

=/ i dont want the 1up rewards yet on the Ps2/Pc servers, cause you know, the lack of having AoI available means i wont be able to make some of the other A rank boards and such with the 30% increase and full on luck.

[Anduril]

Umm it's only 15% synth increase. Rashiid was just being witty by suggesting that they should give us a 30% increase for making us experience the rollback....
Well, anyway. I'm happy, I can finally free up some space in all my PMs and make my pure Armor PM.
But after which update does the new Male Neudaiz Clothes come out? I'm trying to go with the pseudo-goofy clown FOnewm look for my Acrofighter, and this is the closet thing that I think would fit until the actual Replica outfit is released.

[beatrixkiddo]

Fujifiji Set = Clown suit for males

I guess you waited months for it. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Well, if there is the Yamata-Misaki drop, here I come! Though, I tried out the new cog mission offline, and I think it's a pain in the ass to solo..

And thanks for the answer, Schubalts. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

[majan]

I am ecstatic that I will now be able to synth my arsenal of shit for my cast thats been waiting for 2.5 weeks.remember,do NOT insert any boards in your PM until after the update.dont panic if you did,but i'm just saying that because some JP players got autofailed when they left it in their bot before the update adn tried it with the boosted synth rate.hopefully we wont run into that problem,but i woudlnt and am not taking the chance and I suggest you guys all play it safe too that way noone loses out on,say,a flashy doublesaber,or something.

anybody have a clue as to whether or not these new room deco's will encompass having a room on parum/moatoob/neudaiz?

[jcm5]

um.... what are the rewards for 1up? like new missions for 3 weeks or what?

[panzer_unit]

The synth glitch is coming up with the 1Up rewards? I thought it was when they changed to AOI synth rates back on the 16th. My bil de axe... nooo.

[majan]

boosted synthesis rates for all items(+15% to be exact),free makeovers,discount on clothing I beleive.that's all I can think of off the top of my head,but it's kind of a big deal.there will be serious amounts of S ranks being synthed that day among all PSU players.probably more that day than have been synthed to this point.

no...not a synth glitch that i know of,but there was a few reports about synth boards being left in the PM during the update autofailing when the person tried to synth it after the bonuses were applied.

They will not. The Parum Move Pass is available only on the Japanese PC/PS2 servers as an item that can be gotten through the special exchange mission "Machine City Collector" which can be initiated at the Parm Leaf Cafe in Holtes City. As far as I know, there is no other way (currently) to get the move pass. Also, the Moatoob and Neudaiz passes have not been released.

Considering that the glitch was fixed on the Japanese servers shortly after it was discovered, I'm certain that SonicTeam will make sure we have the most up-to-date patch so that we won't have to deal with the problem.

[Freshellent]

Cool,thanks for the info.

This is but a small gripe,really not important but...

Does anyone know if they are going to fix the voices? For PC people I mean. It'd be nice,if not,no big deal. But still,I heard my characters voices on my roomates PS2,that's pretty awesome. I want that on PC.

[Zorafim]

Oh, you have access to a PS2 version? Any chance you can check the female voice list for a Hinata-like voice?

good.now the game will still be balanced without everybody running around with 50% of every s rank in the game.I was talking about the other thing where JP players got jipped with autofailed items,but Im assuming this has been fixed too.still just as a precaution I'm not putting anything in my PM and I would advise you guys to do the same.

[Kietrinia]

I hope they fix the voice issue. I wanna talk. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif

[Reipard]

Empty hope isn't going to accomplish anything. Send them support tickets; flood them with support tickets if you must. Tell them that the voice issue is not something they need to ignore, regardless of whether or not they intend to.

A little assurance goes a long way.

Truth. Fortunately I know of several people who have already sent very well-written emails to Sega about the issue.

It means that certain items in the casino item list will be rotated in and out. This means you'll see things like the music disc that lets you get the halloween music for your room will show up during halloween but then get replaced after they end halloween on the servers. It's nothing big, just seasonal items really.

Also can we update those drop charts http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif They should make the drop charts on here updated with the yet to be released missions and just add new information.

What elements shall be needed? (got my Sleep / Resist farming for it on C rank turn around Deghana (sp?) 10 minutes ftw.

lol I know just wishful thinking for now.

[Eo50]

I hope they make it a little easier to get whips. I ended up switching back to FF from WT because I am waiting to get the Kusev set, and the other half of the Tien and Vish set. They are so-o-o-o high in price right now and I can't even get the drops for them. Let alone I can't even figure out where to get the Kusevs at...

[Kizi]

Now wait a minute... Does this update include PC/PS2? This is very confusing. There's nothing about this on the official site.

[Yoshi_Ayarane]

All US servers get their updates at the same time as the JP Xbox 360 servers. When an update notice for JP 360 is posted, consider that as applying to the US servers as well. (US server update notices are seldom posted in advance, we usually don't get patch notes until AFTER)

[BlakFyniX]

I wish they would release more SUVs. I also think that fortegunners should be able to use the slicers, at least the A ranks. I also wonder if there is going to be a new planet, like Ragol or something. I also want them to release the S boards in shops. That would be really nice.

Neither can I, and it's listed on the official US site. Also, the same sithe says the when AOI goes live, Hanzo swords will have increased damage when using skills. Is this true? I'd try it myself but I havent had much time to play yet.

[EspioKaos]

Mikumiko clothes and parts sets are not sold in shops. They are a possible gift that can be received from the Shitenkaku offertory box.

[VR_Pilot]

Yeah, I was able to find some info regarding that. Might you know anything about the supposed Hanzo Skill bonus?

[VertigoZero]

Anyone know exactly what items to give the box?
