Missions
New GAMs
* The Black Nest/R (third stage GAM) - A brand new simulator has been created based on the latest research from Rykros. Make your way through the countless death traps without giving in to the violent dark energy!

New free missions
* Each new GBR will feature brand new free missions.

Re-released event missions
* Popular missions from past events will be re-released over time.

Mission adjustments
* Over time, even more ver.1 missions will be upgraded to AOTI standards.

New S3 missions
* Over time, more missions will have difficulty S3 added to them.

New items
* Numerous new weapons will be added over time. The four displayed here seem to be completely new and unique to the game.

System adjustments
* New GAS customizations will be released.
* New titles will be released.
* Certain photon art balances will be made.

Miscellaneous plans
Events
* This year marks PSO's 10th anniversary, so a special event called Ragol Memorial Festa will be held in PSU to celebrate the occasion.
* GUARDIANS Chronicle 2nd will feature even more popular event missions from the past in a new light!

GUARDIANS Boost Road
* GBR14: Parum Drop Boost 4th

that means i should really quit PSU since i see the topic long term sched. and the 10th anni. even though i havent been playing for like a week due to studying studying in college

[MillyB]

Woot! Alot of great stuffs in the future!

Lol, I've been feeling the same way about this. The roughest season of the semester is coming for me, and Sega always has that timing to release event on that period D:

So...what? Another Guardians Chronicle full of drama for another uber rod and dagger (that I will end up trading for a saber that now drops like candy)?

[SolomonGrundy]

blah. and these updates will make it to the US...never.

[BIG OLAF]

blah. and these updates will make it to the US...never.

Considering PSU has 1 - 1.5 years of life left (maximum), I'm going to agree.

Oh well. Like Principal Colin Tyrell once said: "We must work...towards the future."

Try 2years + seeing as we probably won't see PSO2 till then.

[Shou]

I was hoping for a large update somewhere in the next 6 months. I may cancel my sub for a little while.

[Proto07]

Does 10 year anniversary event mean another MAG? :D

[Crysteon]

Does 10 year anniversary event mean another MAG? :D

MAG++? NOOOOOOOOO! PLEASE, NO!!!

[pikachief]

omg no MAG2! :D lol its like MAG but with Falz's second form added! XD lol

and yea since college started i've hardly had any PSU tiem D:

[Aeris]

Thats one good planned schedule that i play on the JP servers along with some friends now.

[str898mustang]

no level cap increase?

[Pirrip]

Whoa... does a schedule this far in advance mean that PSU will not be active for very much longer? I mean, I guess with the new PSO2 coming out in 2011...

[Powder Keg]

no level cap increase?

I noticed this as well. Quite bothersome.

[unicorn]

for some reason I think PSU's cap is going to be 180.

If it was raised to 200, then anyone who was close to 180 would probably be pissed if they had to lvl even more to get decent AEXP.

And everything would be even easier than now (which is sad, since its easy to solo most S3 missions as is).

Maybe PSO ep2 stages?

[Ffuzzy-Logik]

Maybe once PSP2I release, they'll start adding Infinity difficulty to existing missions, so they can squeeze even more "content" out of the game.


Whoa... does a schedule this far in advance mean that PSU will not be active for very much longer?No, the Japanese server has always had schedules like this.

[XbikXBd]

Awesome cant wait for new /R and most updates

[unicorn]

No, the Japanese server has always had schedules like this.

Which I always found really unorganized of US servers, since they dont have a real schedule. They just update whenever they feel like it, with no real goals.

I love how JP servers actually has a game plan for a couple months, and a basic idea of what they want to release. Although its sometimes vague, they usually end up giving a little bit more than whats stated in the hypothetical schedule.

[DragonForce]

Ha, that laser cannon in that pic looks like it has the same shot as the ADC.

[HyperShot-X-]

no level cap increase?
I wonder how long it's been since the last one.. also it makes me wonder roughly how much AP is needed to max out GAS on one class..?

[MillyB]

also it makes me wonder roughly how much AP is needed to max out GAS on one class..?

Is this a serious question?

[WHlTEKNIGHT]

Maybe once PSP2I release, they'll start adding Infinity difficulty to existing missions, so they can squeeze even more "un-earned money" out of the game.

No, the Japanese server has always had schedules like this.

fixed :)

[Red*]

its different from class to class.
edit: and what you want. i need atm for my MF around 233AP to cap

[Crysteon]

I blame the Limit Breaks, lol. Like Red says, it really depends on what classes you play or how you're gonna use your AP slots. I have used around 554 AP so far on my Human (I have FM, AF and GM capped, and most of AT). I cant imagine the pain of being MF as human, lolol (thank god I dont have plans on doing that in a short term).

[HyperShot-X-]

I plan on capping AF, GT, and PT on my human, MF on my newman, FM/GM on my cast, and WT on my beast if I ever get around to that, I might need over 1000AP across all 4 of my chars.. that'd be a long time til I worry about next lvl cap increase even for 360 server 2 years later LoL

Ya especially considering I use a Keyboard instead of a controller and different characters.

ST updated the schedule on their site today, so I've added the new items to the first post.

* Lightning Beasts/R will be the next GAM to come out.
* The PSO 10th anniversary event will be called Ragol Memorial Festa.
* GUARDIANS Chronicle 2nd was announced, so expect more older event missions to return for a bit. This will probably end up being in February or March.

Thanks for updating! :)
Hmm Lightning Beasts/R, sounds like fun to me ;D I hope we get Roar of Flames in the second Chronicle Event. I liked the Exp in STD and that was only S2 ;D The Svaltus could hit the 10k mark ;D
