As some of you may know, I don't play anymore. Been feeling very nostalgic though http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime2.gif I don't keep up with the game at all. I don't really know anything since late November. Hope those of you who know me are doing well by the way, and those who don't hehe. Anyways, I was wondering if the content since then has been going well and anything strikingly great or bad. Something to help waver my neutral thoughts of coming back in the future.

Hyacia! o_o

Umm as for updates... Moatoob been getting a lot of love because of Guardians Boost Road and Forest of Illusion (PSO Forest). This may change once GBR moves from Moatoob to another planet.

MAG is supposed to be coming in 2 months or less.

Blackheart became ez food because of story mission (drops from Tylor).

All vanilla PSU bosses got their drop rates changed to reflect on AOI bosses thus spawning random parties in the old vanilla psu areas.

S2 for de rol le came out which is the first of many AOI missions to go S2 in the future.

Dark Relics just came out and a new boss is coming soon ("Seal of the Dark God").

That's all I can recall for now off the top of my head.

Don't forget about the negatives. Lazy-ass Sonic Team still hasn't fixed the system slowdown resulting from the robots in Desert Goliath and Grove of Fanatics. I'm also hearing a lot of lag from Dark Nest. Sonic Team has also been on a roll of half-assing the updates recently, causing bugs which result in server rollbacks (i luv those rollback sigs btw).

It's basically the same ol' shit since day 1 with more story mode missions from the Guardians Colony counter and more items obviously.

Only if you're on the 360 do you get the slowdowns from robots and Dark Nest. As for the roll back, us on the PC/PS2 servers just recently experienced a rollback. It's not like it's every week there's a rollback. But as for updates, when is it not more missions and more items? Oh right, new stuff doesn't please people.

This game really does get boring. I came back here back in October of last year with basically nothing. Within 4 months I got every 11* weapon that a Fortegunner can weild, and made over a stack of meseta. Basically I had nothing to do but level my PA's, which felt like a huge chore.

I'm not playing Phantasy Star until Sega actually makes a next-gen Phantasy Star with content that I can be content with like in a true MMO.

Fixed.

Also, a trade mission in West Parum has been added with some items, including room move tickets(exluding Neudiaz).

Episode 3 missions up to chapter 3 has been released.

You certainly do complain a lot, why not just cancel your sub if you don't like this game?

I, personally, feel I'm getting my $10 worth each month, so I'm happy. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Though this has been stated a million times, evidently it needs to be repeated, again.

If you just come in and blitz straight to level 120 and farm every rare you can think of at all hours of the day, this game will not be fun. Because it *isn't designed that way*. It's designed for casual gamers, if you want to hardcore grind then I'd recommend something like Everquest II or WoW.

Maybe Sega's intention was to *not* make PSU just like every other MMO. It's good to have variety, and this is definitely more my style of game. If it isn't yours, that isn't Sega's fault.

I'm actually more comfortable doing whatever I want at 120 rather than at 50 because S/S2 missions have become nothing, just like Ultimate in PSO.

It certainly feels like what it should've been at release; there may be a billion rehashes but there's damn sure more levels and variety than PSO, albeit presented in a fashion that not a lot of people seem to like.

Well, maybe when they release Phantasy Star Universe: Episode 1, 2, 3 & 4, Phantasy Star Universe Episode 5: C.A.R.D. Revolution 2 or Phantasy Star Universe: Red Burst, people will be interested again.

If you don't play anymore, that means there is only one Hyacia on the servers right now. Hopefully people don't mistake me for you (for now http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif). It happens too often http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_lol.gif

Hey Hyacia, long time no see. Anyway, just a bunch of stuff I guess. I myself haven't been on very much since I'm very busy with school, although if my friends are on, I'll be up for PSU'ing with them.

If you bothered to read my quote, you would notice that it wasn't the only thing I fixed.

Anyhow. I see the population on here is still the same xD.

That reminds me of when I did alot of trades. They would always say they're in my room >...> I was all like "Um no, you're really not." Sillyness. >.> And also, people I know won't mistake us. If you're the human one. Ima beastie.

So how many new missions have we gotten about lately? Oh yeah, and clothes, anything new there? xD

The game just keeps getting better, but that's just my opinion.

GreenArcher
Mar 3, 2008, 03:11 PM
There's plenty of new clothes. And hm since November? I'll just list all the AoI missions:

There's three AMF missions, the last one having Mother Brain.
Scarred Planet and Lightning Beasts in Rozenom
Two ice caves, the second one being De Rol Le
Rykros, our most recent mission, a HIVE-ish mission with new enemies
Sacred Stream, White Beasts, and Sakura Blast on Neudaiz
anddd I think that's it

Edit: I forgot about Hills of Spores and Dancing Birds, those are my favorite missions too o_o

Also about the boredom part. I'm having more fun capped at 120/15 with my gunner than I was grinding my way up. I can go solo whatever I want reasonably well, and it's always fun speed running random missions trying to beat my times. There is plenty to do in this game even if you play quite often.

Also the Forbidden District tthat runs full of Rappy varients on Neudaiz.

I see. Whens the next event we will have anyhow? Last time I resuscribed was pretty much surrounding the event. Also, as stated by Para. The V1 drops increased? So are like, Repcas, Double Agito, Rikauteri still pretty rare?

Retniwreven
Mar 3, 2008, 03:22 PM
Max Attack G is the next expected event. Not sure when it's going to be yet.

Repcas are still quite rare, it's a pain to find the board and I've yet to see either board or sword on the market.

Rikaus and Double Agitos are fairly rare as well, but they're on the market pretty consistently now.

Weeaboolits
Mar 3, 2008, 03:23 PM
Rikauteri exists now.

MrNomad
Mar 3, 2008, 03:33 PM
Well, those rares you mentioned do still have rare traits, but you can get them now if you know what I mean. Like, instead of spending your entire time on PSU getting even one rare, now you would spend weeks, days, even one day if you're that lucky getting those rares. It still takes you time, but the time it takes doesn't interfere with your actual life now, I should know, I finally got my Double Agito after about 2 weeks of hunting Ragnus http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif As a future update side note, I can't wait for the Remote Experimental Base Mission on Moatoob. Not only an experimental base at the desert planet (Which means a whole new scenery for moatoob's missions as well as ties to the beginning plot of the original phantasy star 4) but it's jam-packed with a bunch of the tougher mobs you face in game, like Vahras, Bil de vears, Bal Sozas etc. The mobs are all fire with exception to the rare mini-boss, but thats cool, we've been seeing enough new missions with all monsters of another element, so why not the most populated element now? I'm gonna enjoy sending them all to their grave with my ice double agito 30% 4/6 and my ice bil de axe that I will soon have :3

This will never be fixed. Its an emulation problem. besides, i dont lag on either of those missions on PS2.

the only way its gonna get fixed is if they find a way to change the way the game uses the 360 hardware, and i doubt thats ever going to happen.


BTW, shut up the complaining. If you dont like it then go bitch about it on the PSO board.

Well, they finally fixed the drop rates for the PSU v1 missions, so a lot of that stuff is now actually possible to attain. I have like, 2 Kan Yus now, so yeah.

MAG will make Rikauteris drop in price for sure.

Yup there are definitely new clothing around Hyacia including the Casino girl suit.

Rikauteris and Double Agitos do exist on the market now but they're still pretty rare due to the fact that majority of population is stuck at Moatoob farming for rares via Guardians Boost Road.

Before the new event comes out, it's best to just LV up your Skills, Bullets, Techs before new update. Im currently LV up that Ultimate Sword PA and at LV15 atm.

Oh actually indica just reminded me of something, JP got a PA update in which PAs are easier to level Hyacia.

The gameplay is better.The community is more peaceful. Having no friends, would likley make psu seem ghastly. I for one, think the game is too easy, But its still enjoyable. I do spend more time socializing and helping new people, than actually setting goals that I would accomplish in 3 days or so. Overall psu is good. Come back.
