Me and my friends have been battin round an idea a mission you can only do once that at the end

reward you with making an actual custom class, like me as a fighgunner I can actualy sacrifice like S

rank twin daggers to up the rank of or add a weapon onto my class allowing me to customize my

class once. NPCs have custom classes LOL why cant we but its just a cool little idea that will never

see the light of day. Also another idea that will never see the light of day is actually have a custom

story line for each class not too in depth but these stoires can only be played once and you have a

chance to get random class specific only weapons and armor and items and pm's I thought that

might be kinda cool too actually make a difference in people of the same class. Anyone else have

any ideas that well will never see the light?

Main complaint about the game is that you can't kill everything. Secondary complaint is that the things you can kill don't suffer enough.

Sample Quote: "Why can't I make the baker watch me kill his wife and child, then force-feed their flesh to him until his stomach bursts? What is this, Barbie's Horse Adventure?"

I still want an anonymous mode, even with the community so dead right now. :lol: I just don't like to be bothered sometimes with mails and random room visits; sometimes I just want to take care of my business and sign off. I'd also like to see auto-messages in the mailing system, which I'm told PSO had. That way I don't have to worry about mails, and people know that I'm busy. That, or make the status messages affect one's card. Right now, status messages are freakin' useless. :-? I'd also like to see some sort of challenge mode.

more beasts!!
i mean theres like 20+ SUVS..

how hard would it be to make a new beast?
maybe like a reptile, or type of bird or something like that..

or maybe even like a SEED virus for humans and Newman..
you transform into a magashi or whatever that thing is called. or you can be like a pannon or somethin like that.. lol

S-rank SUV which summons a meteor storm instead of rain.
Or a very very big blast like a atombomb kinda like Final Fantasy VIII Ultima spell..and it should be a room clearer off course.
Or a very powerful tornado that takes enemies up in the air and smash them hard in the ground.
Or the SUV gives you about 10 seconds of free shooting with a summon Gatlin gun which is uberpowerful offcourse.

But i guess that will lag to death for the PS2 players :S

Oh OH!!!!! Dude..... duuuuude... Techers should get the same sort of charge meter like beasts and casts ... and when.. it.. gets full... they should.. USE SOME KINDA ULTIMATE TECHNIC ATTACK!! Like one that combines half or all elements for some super technic attack that anihilates the entire room like Paradi! Make it look real sharp and hot. OR!! Make technic speed casting time down to like 0.1 when you use your Ultimate Tech and beforehand you'd equip the kind of spell you wanna use throughout the timed Ultima attack.. and this aura would engulf your entire body.. and then.. and THEN!!! You' just smash the X button like crazy and said equipped spells would just fire off like Machine guns :O...

Btw... the way I typed this out was intended to sound like some giddy 10 year old school girl goin on and on about her level 6 pikachu.

I always wanted a custom class option where you're given a certain amount of points. You then assign points to weapons you want your class to use, of course to use higher rank weapons will require more points. Points would also be used to determine what lvl PA's you allow your class to use and as always the higher the PA lvl max, the more points you use up. Also I was thinking of also using points to determine weapon speed.

ForeverStronger
Jul 25, 2008, 01:26 PM
Weapon speed huh... yeah.. some points allocation merit system thingy. Maybe the Merit Point system can also be used for your base stats kinda like the Materials from the old PSO? That would make each and every character different in my opinion.. (Hmm.. Power craver says ATTACK UP ALL TEH WAY!!!!!!!!!!!)

Black Beasts with Axes.
Human summoning Tanks.
Newman able to summon Fakis Diga like an SUV if the bar gets full.
CASTs using Fluge SUVs (that will neva happen! Look at that abused Paradi of yours!)

Having random bonus days where certain synths, say armours will be 100% no matter what kind of PM stats your PM has.
Only being 1 month behind JP servers.

Why thank you.
How about asking Chuck Norris himself about this?
http://www.pso-world.com/forums/member.php?u=46674
It's PSO-W's honor to have Chuck Norris as a member.

Btw. I was dead serious with black beasts carrying axes! That would make them less filthy, don't you think so?

Another idea:
Being able to put custom tracks into your room. So others can hear your awesome music.

Making it cost less to play.
Humans being able to stand up to Beasts/CASTs.
Giving Protransers: S Rifles and Rods. (PSP anyone?)
Having more character slots.
New fullsized planets. (Not like Rykros :/)
Character class: Chuck Norris. (requires Level 99 of all classes)

I'll think of more. :/

Also, love that idea of being 1 month behind JP :/...

- What? Humans exceed Beasts, as a fan of the Illuminus I sure know Human supremacy! Beasts are nothing! (some are) But the thing about CASTs you got right.
- lol... well this would be ok if Protransers would have only half of their current DFP and ATP stats. :wacko: XD
- Or better yet, a merge.
- Need Chuck Norris to approve!

I got another excellent idea:
Make the game balanced.

=Custom Weapon=
100k a pop. You have 15 points.
~Pick your weapon type.
~Each type starts as a low 9* weapon.
~You can increase either the ACC/ATT/ or PP by X amount, each increase cost 2 points.
~Choose what element you want/ if neutral you get an over all bonus to each weapon stat.
~1 points gets a random 2-12%
~2 points gets a random 14-23%
~3 points gets a random 24-35%
Then best part, you get to name it. If you want to search for them each starts with C.

For example: I want an Axe.
Before Stats:
ATT: 1000
ACC: 110
PP: 330
Increases ATT x2
+25 att each
Increases PP x4
+20 pp each
(so far thats 12 points)
I choose Ground for my element and I use my last points for a chance for a
random 25-35%. It turns up 29%
I name it Bread Slicer( I was hungry Y_Y )
--END RESULT--
C. Bread Slicer
ACC: 1000-->1050
ATT: 110--->110
PP: 330--->410
29% Ground
I just came up with these numbers as an estimate, so it can possibly be more per increase
and after these weapons can still be grinded so they cant get too super uber lol.

Wartechers get A ranked Wands
Wartechers get exclusive access to Dizas and Rentaz (we are the defensive class :razz:)
Increase in damage for Humans and Crea Weapons
Newman race ability
More Nanoblast for Beast
Co-Op Story related missions & side story missions like PSO had

EDIT: By the way, I came up with a whole new Race idea for PSU as well. It's in the Doc file that I attached. Read it and agree or not. Please?
And by the way, if some of it doesn't make sense, that's because it was an idea that I originally created just to send to my sister, just for fun. And I also added a few extra notes and information that is more miscellanous than anything towards the end. It'd be useful if Sega ever picked it up and wanted to use it story-wise. And yes, I was up one lonley night and came up with all of that.

I'd perfer that you don't burn me to a crisp, but if you must, do so.

EDIT # 2: Thanks to the help of Aumi, I have edited some of the stuff of the Numans racial ability to include the ideas of both of us. It's good when someone who know stuff about the original series can lend a hand. And as a result, I've loaded up the new file now. So if you seen it before and what to know what's changed, take a look now.

EDIT # 3: Another edited version of this document. Thanks again, Aumi. :yes:

I think it would be pretty sweet to have this thing called "view information" conveniently located in our rooms where it would tell us if there's anything new with the game. Oh wait...

Also, as long as we're somewhat on the topic of newman special abilities, they could summon a tornado to come and lift all the creatures off the ground and then go "KABLZOEOA<ZOMG!!!1one" and send them flying around the area.:-P

1) Yes, I know Human supremacy too but people ignore using a Human cause of lolJabrokenbeasts and CASTSchargin/firinmahlaz0rz (SUV) I can play Human PT and I can play it really dang well.

A friend of mine had a pretty simple but good idea. Even though it may cause more lag, increase the monster count! Put more critters onscreen! 4 bildevears? HA! how about like 10 of em?! I would LOVE to see how a full party would cope with...say...around 30 badiras onscreen. Some spells and weapons may have to be tweeked to cope but it would be more than fun.

i totally agree with this. even if you blist someone the little thing still shows up as online. and you put absent it should reflect on your partner card.

i enjoy the idea of having a mag like in pso. esp since it would take up no space in a party or on an item slot.

clothes not taking up item slot

humans and newmans get photon blasts.

360 and pc/ps2 merge equaling in 8 character slots. that and i would like to switch my account to a pc like with the pc/ps2 servers so i could take good quality pics for once. not to mentioon being able to hear my character's voice like on the ps2

more gm's simply for the fact that they get mobbed everytime they come onto the 360 servers.

the option to turn off voice chat in a party XD

Stats:
1. Make CASTs and Beasts more profficient techers. Atleast a 25% base TP increase. Doh. I'm not saying Beasts/CASTs should be better than Newman/Human at teching, but should have the option of being a pretty stable one. Besides playing for fun, gimping yourself, tech lvling, or not caring, there is no reason to play this.

2. Make Newmans more profficient fighters. Or release more weapon types that rely on TP. Obviously not being able to make use of the charge meter really gimps them in any melee role. So fix that too.

3. Give Humans a pretty decent boost to ALL base stats. Obviously. Give them a faster PP regen for all weapon types. I don't think Humans should use the bar meter, since they aren't an "artificial lifeform" (Beasts, CASTs, Newmans). Their gameplay should be a bit different. I mean... you can't summon things can you? >_>

Gameplay:
1. Do something to bullets. I dunno. They're boring.
2. Make techs hit multiple targets. And implement some sort of "Just Attack" to techs. "Just Cast"? "Just Nuke"?
3. Give Newmans a bar meter. AND NOT something that only applies to teching classes. In fact, make it stronger for melee classes.

Lobbies, missions, etc:
1. Side-story missions. Escort missions. Puzzle missions. Etc.
2. Auction house. BECAUSE I WANT TO SEE SOMETHING LIKE THIS.
3. Roomate function for rooms! :D
4. Do something with the Club (colony) and Bar (Moatoob).

Good idea, i knew there were something i forgot to input in the last message.
I would like either a charged shot, which is a bigger blast but consumes more PP obviously and you pretty much have to stand still to charge.
Or a another extra bullet p.a there so you can have a other element as a back-up.

Canīt imagine the size of degahna lasers if charged to max. ^^

Updating the game every week...

Jul 26, 2008, 09:33 AM
A level where the entire mission and the boss is one and the same.
Block one - the leg area. wether on foot or in a vehicle you have to chase this MASSIVE monster down. There would be other obsticles like parasites or other smaller critters to hinder you trying to take out the massive beasts legs. Maybe you can put a sense of urgency in this block with a time limit because "This giant monster must be stopped before reaching the city".

Block two- Monsters body. After taking down the legs the giant monster has fallen to the ground and now you must make your way towards the head to incapacitate/purify this monster. This level could be made up of the landscape and the monsters body to combine to make the level. If the monster would say, have arm like limbs you would have to disable these in order to proceed and of course there would be critters along the way to harass you.

Block three- the head/core. pretty sandard stuff here. Kinda like Fakis or Mother Brain. But the monster should have a grab/bite attack that could toss you accross the screen. It could bite you and kinda like chew on ya, and your party members better be there to help you because the attack will garanteed incapacitate if not escaped with party assistance.
This level may not be soloable on S or above.

Elemental beast would be cool, so if you had to do a mission with all dark things you could go Light Beast and have like a holy light aura kinda thing... and i think that beast should look different... like if your using a speed beast it could look like a cheata or some thing and if you had a Attack beast it would look more like a lion or tiger... something like that....

No, because a 25% boost to Cast/Beast isn't going to make them stronger than Newman/Human with techs. Newmans having access to the charge meter isn't going to make them stronger than Beasts either. I'm just saying the game should promote customization more, otherwise we'll just be playing PSO in the end.

Rebalance all missions so no A rank mission has higher lvl enemies than a S2 mission, for example like this:
C - lvl 5 - 20 enemies
B - lvl 25 - 45
A - lvl 50 - 95
S - lvl 100 - 145
S2 - lvl 150 - 170
S3 - lvl 175 - 195
Rebalance mission rewards (mp and meseta).
Increase number of enemies on S2 and higher difficulties, or even just S3.
Boost in speed for bosses on the highest difficulties, S2 and higher, or even just S3 (like comparing Very Hard Dragon with Ultimate Sil Dragon on PSO).
A master class that would have S rank twin claws, twin sabers, knuckles and twin daggers...basically a twin master xD.
New techs, for example Grant (the light ball many light enemies use), Ragrant, Gigrant and Gimegid.
Gitechs, Ratechs and noszonde/nosmegid hitting big enemies and bosses in their multiple parts.

Some nice stuff to add visually:
-Real time weather: Both inside missions and in lobbies. This would add a veeeery nice touch to PSU. Also having the music change with it (like having calm/tranquil music when it's snowing to fast, epic music when its clouded over/storming).
-Better music: ...seriously.
-Clothes: It would be very nice if we could customize the color palette for our clothes.
-Hair accessories: Make it so that any hair style can have any hair accessory, including all types of glasses being available for any type of hair.

System changes:
-Shop: It would be nice if there could be a live feed of your shop that you could keep track of. Like an auto messaging system that will mail you every time one of your items sold in shop (can be turned on or off).
-Reskins: They're fine on mobs, but that needs to stop with bosses. Each boss should be unique and etc. so that it doesn't get boring after just fighting it once since you already fought its other form in another mission >_>

I think it'd be neat to see the return of the Photon Blast, or at least an homage to some.
I mean we got the Heavens Punisher in the form of Paradi Cataract, I think it would be bitchin to have a super buff SUV similar to to the Twins Photon Blast instead of the Fluge which just heals which seems pointless to me (oh sup trimate / star atomizer?)

I agree with everything.
About the weather part, also real time transition between day and night would be nice (and other parts of the day like evening and morning) :>

About bosses reskins, I think would be nice having a rekin of a boss on an higher difficulty (like it was on PSO, Dragon - Sil Dragon), instead of having reskins on other missions.
Or, one thing I thought about rare missions some time ago, fire and ice purifications (maybe even other elements).

Copy-paste from what I posted in official psu boards, suggestions forums, some months ago ^^;


All free missions would have 2 rare variants (except Hive/Colony/Rykros missions), one with only ice monsters and other only fire, and also they would have the SEED cores thingies like firebreak. Those missions would be more common than the pso rare missions (Forest of Illusion), and I guess they could have something like 50% exp and rare boost (1.5x). In the start of the mission we would get the photon eraser or the one for ice SEED contamination (don't remember the name), like on winter event, on the firebreak parts.
The mission would be kinda the same as the normal variant, but with the SEED cores to purify, the fire or ice background instead of the normal one, and the monsters would be a bit more powerfull (something like 5% to 25% boost HP, or even all stats boosted).
The bosses, I think those could be changed a bit, reskinned to stronger versions. For example, on Plains Overlord, if we got the fire contamination, instead of De Ragan we would get something like SEED De Ragan (fire), and on the ice contamination SEED De Ragan (Ice). Each of them would have their own drops, or even just drop the same things as De Ragan, but the weapons or line shields instead of dropping as boards, would drop made with the element of the boss (fire or ice).

exploration mode on planets!
all lobbys have a door leading to the planets main surface were you may use vehicles to travel faster accost the planet. some vehicles can only cover certain terrain and to make things interesting players may have to reach certain levels or beat certain missions on certain ranks to access certain vehicles or upgrades of or t the vehicles. there could be areas called monster nests were you will find like a cave with gobs of lapucha or even lost relic sites, one may be a svaltus armory with gobs of svaltus to fight against.

or even a dragon nest were you have to fight 3 de ragan's at once.

Jul 26, 2008, 07:07 PM
yeah, I think if it was more like Guild Wars, having the main city lobbies of each planet, and then just a massive, instanced world for your party to explore would have been hot.

A few sub-instances within the world for special missions and the like.

Imagine trekking across the barrens of Moatoob, up over a dusty mountainside path, and when you climb over the ridge, deep down in a valley on the other side you see a sheltered oasis :)

Base Female Beast TP Lvl 130 = 932
Base Female Newman TP Lvl 130 = 1377

New Base Female TP Lvl 30 with 25% Boost = 932 + .25(932) = 1165

That's huge. It doesn't make Beasts better at teching than Newmans, but it totally f*cks the tech/melee balance between the two races. I'll take a beast with monster ATP and a 100 less tech damage than a Newman any day of the week. Highest HP, ATP, and TP damn near the strongest in the game? kthnxbai. I also don't understand how making all the classes closer stat-wise aids customization...

Maybe 25% is a bit too much. I dunno, thats up in the air.

Yeah but I also mentioned giving stuff to Humans and Newmans. And Beasts DON'T have 100 less TP than Newmans, please. PSUTOOLS.com. They have 600 less TP than Newmans in FT and MF. Casts have 1000 less TP than Newmans in those classes as well.

What I'm trying to say is that, at some point the racial differences are going to be so dramaticly different that some classes won't even be considered playable for some races.

- The real time weather would be awesome for PSU.... :0 Buuut I think thats asking too much from Sega. x_x
- The hair accessories idea is good too. Someone mentioned before that they should add more kinds of accessories, like masks...lol.

A custom music feature that lets the party leader play any track from there jukebox in a mission (though i can see how this could get annoying if someone has that 1 minute or so loop of FTM during a metroline run :S)

A team System kind of like BB with a team chat Tab.... so you can talk to friends if theyre in another party.

Maybe even a team HQ...kind of like a My room.


planet run missions that basicaly squeeze all the missions from a certain path through a planet into one uber mission with huge rewards at the end. (example even greater rewards than youd get for doing all the missions seperately, due to the fact your doing it all in succession)

Since most people have covered what I had in mind for a while now already.

I say:
- Context/enviorment depended Photon Arts. ( Things like ground slides, wall bounces, and PAs being limited in certain areas, this will add a new layer of depth to combat.)

- Real-Time Weather. ( yeah, I know, said already. But me and Syl sat at Raffon Field back in v.1 Ragan days and talked about how awesome that would be for hours.)

- Custom Missions from Player Shops. ( Pretty much a "map editor" with the appropiate point restrictions that only affect a scoreboard/personal chart in terms of rewards. Seriously, I have some ideas I wanna throw around.)

- Random Instances in game 24 hours. ( Picture a announcement coming up, provided you've selected to participate is such event, to save a random NPC caught in a map across each planet and the colony. What's that? SEED are attacking ------ area? Some Svaltus have emerged from the entrance of Relics and are attacking local camps? Yeah, I'm down. )

- Option to pic V.1 Photon Art Graphics. ( Pretty simple really, if you've seen v.1 Redda, vs now... )

- Mods in general for the User Interface ( Pretend for a moment the game is harder and your able to see who's using Sols/Stars, who's doing the most damage, who's healing the most, etc. Just a little spice here and there. " Einhart is confused. Einhart recovered with the help of Aden -Reverser-" It'd be nice to see enemy health bars, who they're targeting. Like it matters, hah.)

- Mini-Games. ( Not hard to figure out, I just wanna have something else to do with friends besides missions, the casino and card/number games. More floaders, racing, fsckin' tic tac toe would be amusing even. Oh, and SPAAAAACE CHESS. I want Polty Pawns and Go-Vahra Knights.)

Hey Ken, I like your idea of the New Racial System, although I like this one too:

[spoiler-box]
Human:
HP: 4, ATP: 4, ATA: 4, TP: 4, DFP: 4, EVP: 4, MST: 4
The well-rounded race

Newman:
HP: 2, ATP: 2, ATA, 5, TP: 6, DFP: 2, EVP: 5, MST: 6
The magical race

Numan:
HP: 3, ATP: 3, ATA: 6, TP: 5, DFP: 4: EVP: 6, MST: 5
The other well-rounded race that's more accurate, evasive, and agile

CAST:
HP: 6, ATP: 5, ATA: 3, TP: 1, DFP: 6, EVP: 2, MST: 1
The tank race that's good at taking punishment (they're made of metal for Pete's sake)

Beast:
HP: 5, ATP: 6, ATA: 2, TP: 2, DFP: 5, EVP: 3, MST: 2
The damage-dealing race

Glad you actually read it! The idea in your spoiler box is very good too. It eliminates the Metallic Casts that I came up with, but they were there to pay homage to the PSO Casts. If SEGA was to take any of those two and use them, I'd be very happy. And so would fans of PSO and the Original Phantasy Star Series.

P.S: The file with the info I created is in my post on Page 2 if anyone else wants to read it.

Salvage option for weapons and armor. You can break down weapons and armors and get half the materials that it would take to synth it.

Yeah, thanks. I had my idea so that Humans are put dead center in all stats instead of being the 2nd best magic and 2nd worst melee.

a fair, balanced, and equalized proportion of TECHNIC damage to class-specific statistics .

as it is now, there's little to no payoff to have the survivability and viability of a glass cannon and have the firepower of a water pistol. Actually, a super soaker if you are a capped FT (better, now?)

alternatively, a newman helicopter would be a fantastic use of that little charge bar. really, all classes should have some kind of special nano or SUV thingy as a matter of fairness.

Me? Hmmm...

Wartechers get A ranked Wands
Wartechers get exclusive access to Dizas and Rentaz (we are the defensive class :razz:)
Increase in damage for Humans and Crea Weapons
Newman race ability
More Nanoblast for Beast
Co-Op Story related missions & side story missions like PSO had

EDIT: By the way, I came up with a whole new Race idea for PSU as well. It's in the Doc file that I attached. Read it and agree or not. Please?
And by the way, if some of it doesn't make sense, that's because it was an idea that I originally created just to send to my sister, just for fun. And I also added a few extra notes and information that is more miscellanous than anything towards the end. It'd be useful if Sega ever picked it up and wanted to use it story-wise. And yes, I was up one lonley night and came up with all of that.

I'd perfer that you don't burn me to a crisp, but if you must, do so.

I like your idea, especially an extra numan race, really a dream of mine. But I don't like the idea of all numans having that ring. Something like that should be within the jurisdiction of the user. I'm also not too fond of the idea of these "Tribal Markings." But they could make it like the ones of beasts, showing what kinds of Magic they use. I'd like these markings to be either on the arm or on the area under the collar-bones. Or instead of this give them that ring on the neck, with the marking on it. But the marking shouldn't be too big. How about using the sign Nei had on some pictures, just with differing colors.

http://www.phantasy-star.net/art/segaart/geneticjam.jpg (Look at Nei, just for reference)

Also, they should have a bit better ATA, after all, they are pretty much the assassins of PS. And an assassin attacks quick and accurate.

Also the ideas of the ears sounds a bit weird to me. But as long as I'm able to get the ears my character uses (http://aumai.au.funpic.de/nei.jpg). Other than that, pretty neat. How about putting it into the suggestions forum of the of the official forum. Like Ruby said, the possibility that it get's seen by the eyes of the development team is there. ;)

EDIT: How about allowing numans to also use both clothes and parts? After all, they're an assassin race, so many parts would be matching very well.

Also glad that you read my posts. I tried to at the least sign up at the official fourms, but they're having registration issues and they haven't gotten back to me on that yet. Now I will attempt to respond to your comments in order.

But I don't like the idea of all numans having that ring. Something like that should be within the jurisdiction of the user. I'm also not too fond of the idea of these "Tribal Markings."

Or instead of this give them that ring on the neck, with the marking on it. But the marking shouldn't be too big. How about using the sign Nei had on some pictures, just with differing colors.

I get what you are saying. But the purpose is to use the markings as a way do seperate Numans from Newmans. They shouldn't look too similar. But neither should they be so far apart. With that in mind, the markings on the Numans wouldn't have to be too noticable. Just something that you can see and say: "Okay, that's a Numan; someone who can assassinate me in a sec; not a Newman who will Ice me with Dambarta."

I looked at the picture that you linked too. That gave me an idea. Perhaps Numans would have the tip of their ears colored and have a set of horns or something. The Numan in black has the colored tips and the one in red has the horns. (Dang, should've played PS 1- 4. LMAO.)

If Numans had those differentations in the face area, the "tribal markings" could be small to nothing. Then they could be a lot more similar to the Beast tatoo. But I don't want them to be too similar. From what I can tell, making a Numan race is walking the fine line between Human and Beast. This leads into issue # 2...

Also, they should have a bit better ATA, after all, they are pretty much the assassins of PS. And an assassin attacks quick and accurate.

True, assassins are accurate. But if they were to get higher ATA, then I'd need to remove something (IMO) to keep them balanced. Maybe in the TP department, I don't know if assassins would need the second best Technic Power. They could settle right next to humans in that aspect, but that comes down to what were Numans orignally better at: Technics/Magic or Accuracy. I'd be glad to give them balanced accuracy, but again there's that fine line to walk once more. As for the last issue...

How about allowing numans to also use both clothes and parts? After all, they're an assassin race, so many parts would be matching very well.

Well, Numans aren't robotic in any aspect... are they? It'd be hard to explain how a Numan would be able to wear them... even if it would be cool. That's why I gave that "ability" to PSU Casts (aka Android Casts.) They are robotic but they are human-like. The overall solution to this problem would be to allow the fleshie races to wear clothing that is modeled after the CAST parts... but that in itself makes the ability to wear Parts obsolete. Not to mention that it wouldn't work in the reverse... so go figure.

Thanks for your input Aumi. I appreciate it. I might type up a version two if I get some more input from others. This really could be a topic in its own. :D

The one in red is no numan, she's an android. No numans have any sort of horn. And the only one with colored ear tips was Rika aka Fal. No numan of the NM-series had this. Numans never actually had any big difference from Newmans. I'd settle with the ring around the neck, Every Numan had this. The problem is that it would get in the way at some clothes, as some already have rings around the neck. So I think the best idea would be the colored ear tips. It's noticeable but nothing big. The color should be changeable by the user in an extra menu in make-over. I think that should be the only difference. I'd take purple or violet for my Nei :3

I'd also really like to see Nei's PS Generation 2 clothes and Rika's clothes, probably as numan only then :3

Other than all that, Newmans of PSU aren't really bad Numans. They're pretty good Numan's when using them as AT or WT. AT is the best because of the stats and speed and that they have the best support TECHs. Numans always had good healing TECHs. It only need's claws and twin claws. I'd be perfectly okay with those in A since all other claws simply are too big.

And also, I'd recommend not to cut the TP, since numans had very good healing. But they also had nice accuracy. :/

EDIT: How about putting ATP 3 and ATA 4. They had after all moderate ATP, but were the fastest and could attack 2 times a turn when using a claw in each hand. You can put their MST 2. After all, they are already agile. And they should have a faster attacking speed than any race at melee classes and melee hybrids and give them both speed and stat boost at AT (AT should get claws and twin claws, at least A rank). When using melee, you will then make fast attacks and block the enemy very often. Normally it's really annoying to constantly block at melee, but when your attacks are fast then it doesn't matter much.

EDIT: Another edit lol, but how about this:

Numan -

ATP: 3
ATA: 4 (3?)
DFP: 2
EVP: 5
TP: 4
HP: 2
MST: 2 (3?)
STA: 3

Special: Speed boost when holding a melee weapon (Faster than any other racer).

Appearance: Same as Newman, but with colored ear-tips with customizable colors (extra menu in make-over).

Clothing: Clothes.

Racial Ability (My own idea): Assassination Mode: You get a special weapon that comes with a tattoo on the right shoulder bought in the make-over shop (Twin Claws, Twin Daggers, Twin Sabers, probably more). Attacks at 3 times normal speed with attack times 2. No access to menu (like Nanoblast).

And how about the ability to use claws and twin claws up to A regardless of class. Or at least AT should get A claws and twin claws. And if there are gonna be crea claws and twin claws, usable by Humans only, how about giving Numans access to these?
