What exactly were you expecting? The start of the 'Mission Carnival' only to have it interupted the next day with their building maintenance? That makes much more sense..

I'm glad to we're getting the update to the mission 'The Collector', so that I can move my main character to the Neudiaz planet. As well as the EX Device GH490.

Lol at the complaints already, they have a "building maintenance" shortly, and their expected to add a ton of updates? Lol, whatever.

Also because they said "bi-weekly updates" doesn't mean these update will be huge.

Least this shows that Mission Carnival should be in 2 weeks time, if SEGA haven't already delayed that too.

SEGA haven't said anything about Carnival in 2 weeks, I'm not going to hold my breath. If we have it before Christmas I'd be surprised.

Sure there's a building maintenance, but as I said earlier, this should've either been bundled in last update (which wasn't massive either) or the next due update. Releasing it on its own is...anticlimactic to say the least. Besides, I'm sure the rest of you could've lived without this until after the building maintenance. It just seems pointless releasing it on its own- it's certainly not bringing any players back :lol:

Don't get me wrong, if you wanted this update then good for you, but eh. After getting the Neudaiz transfer I'll be back to wondering what the hell to run on the night :disapprove:

I think this is essentially an update where Chill says, "We'll have updates every 2 weeks for the rest of the year," [I think this was stated on the official forum], then just bad planning.

I think we'll probably get another update in 2 weeks, and it'll probably be noteworthy. I hope.

I have to agree that I am glad that we got a little something as oppose to...nothing. With the servers being down in the following days why would you want something really good and then not be able to play?? THAT would be a bawww-fest..

I don't quite understand why we're considered 'behind' the JP servers(aside from the US version was released after the JP one, but that can't be helped). If we didn't even know what the JP got/are getting we couldn't even complain about it, its hard not to think about it because its always posted foremost on this and the other forums as soon as they are announced. I doubt the JP version has had all the same problems the US version has been having, I know its had some problems but not all the same ones we got(and even though they fixed the problems with some missions on their end, when we got those missions some of them were still bugged as they were over there).

Oh, I know. I never said they didn't have the right. I only said that some people will complain no matter what. In fact, I'll bet if we somehow ended up getting the exact same updates at the same time as the Japanese servers, some people still wouldn't be happy. :lol:

I wouldn't worry. The Grandfather Clock isn't part of a set rotation. The only items I would expect to see MIA are the Sweet/Berry set which should be replaced with the Goth set. As for the new items, I'm hoping for at least PSU Disc 78 (and maybe they'll put 37 back in), but it wouldn't surprise me to see Bouquet/C as well.

I'll give em credit for not screwing up anything recently (save for the end box drops in Bladed Legacy, lol), but I see no reason why Sega can't give us everything Japan has RIGHT NOW.

The Neudaiz GBR was the best update we got recently, imo - a ton of new S2 missions with a SHITLOAD of new items. They need to do stuff like this on a regular basis. At least GBR encouraged people to play together in parties and, to a degree, not spam the same missions over and over...

Wow. "what we've been through"? Minorities have been through something. Oppressed people havebeen through something. All you have to do is wait.

It's people that bitch about every tiny and unimportant thing that really irk me about forums in general, and these boards have been doing it more and more lately.

Adults understand that there are times when scheduled things are delayed and take time to get back on schedule. Children sit and scream whenever things go wrong and throw tantrums whenever they don't get everything RIGHT NOW.

So we've had a slow update schedule? Big fucking deal. So this update has nothing in store for you? Bigger fucking deal. I'm sure plenty of people didn't get much worth out of 3 weeks of Neudaiz GBR and nobody complained.

HELL GBR was a week longer than it should've lasted, pushing content another week back, but did everyone bitch then? Hell no.

Do I think that Sega is perfect? No. Do I have any real value to this update or am I excited about it? No. But I'm sure others are. And while we're throwing around track records, when you look at the last month to two months we've had more regular updates (albeit small ones) than probably the last 6 months before it.

I think sega is doing better than before and I for one am content- not with the specific update, but with the fact that with retards whining and complaining about everything they do that Sega is still updating the game for the US instead of shooting it like the mad dog people like you have made it.

questions i cant answer right now cuz i g2g! ^^

The Parum S2 have to wait for GBR (not really, but that's the reason). The GBR has to wait for the Event missions to finish.

The reason for this is that the events are used to release the new weapons and items that will be obtained in the newer missions. If you release the missions first, then the events loose their meaning. For example, the upcoming mission carnival. The only reason people are going to do this one is because of the boss box drops. If the bosses were sub 150, no one would want to play the carnival because "nothing good drops there". Bitch whine moan... sort of like what's happening right now.

So they are a bit handcuffed in that aspect. They have to do the events or people will bitch about not getting the events. Also there are event only items that are needed to get later items. If the events are skipped, the event only items will need to be distributed in a different manner. People will the new manner of distribution is unfair and will bitch about how either, A) everyone got the item, or B) Only people who meet certain requirements which aren't fair got the event only items.

So we have established that events are required to introduce new items and event only items in order to keep people from bitching. Well GBR doesn't have event only items so why not release GBR and the new S2 at the same time as an event to get us back on schedule? Well, it's pretty obvious that you can't have, say Shred the Darkness and Mission Carnival at the same time, but releasing Shred the Darkness and GBR at the same time would be just as bad.

The GBR with it's increased drop rate gets new items out into the economy quickly. This regulates prices and keeps inflation down. If you release an event with GBR, then GBR will lose out. New items will not make it out in any sort of quantity to meet demand and the result is majorly over inflated prices. (see Tear of Light, Gourmet Cake, and Inverter Circuit for example) Sure overtime the market will get the items and the prices will drop, but this will be long after people get "bored" with the missions and the price will not reach any reasonable level (see Degahna Cannon and Needle Cannon).

In other words, releasing everything at once would not be reasonable. Now releasing things at an accelerated rate would be nice, but releasing everything at once would be stupid and would end up killing more people's enjoyment of the game.

A mitigation would be to skip the GBR aspect and just have an increased drop rate on new missions regardless of how times you run it for a month. In that way you can have the event and a pseudo GBR at the same time. Sure the saturation of items won't be as large as a proper GBR, but it would be enough to prevent crazy inflation.
