[EspioKaos]

http://phantasystaruniverse.jp/news/wis/?mode=view&id=1404

Notice as of May 31, 2011: Due to a fatal bug which was just discovered in the new GAM "Ohtori Encampment," release of the mission has been postponed in order to give the development team more time to correct the problem. Furthermore, the release of the Ohtori Castle field and new BGM along with related items Red Saber and Meteor Drive has been postponed as well. A new release date for this content will be announced at a later date. Even though this new GAM will not be available, the Maximum Attack Infinity reward for 2x AMP in extra and 1st stage GAMs will be released as planned. However, it will be reissued when Ohtori Encampment is ready for release. Please accept our deepest apologies for this delay.

Wow, new SUV and new weapons, woo! I'm actually glad the rewards are being split up this time, no way I'd find time to get AMP, level spells, AND hunt/buy/grind weapons.

[Crysteon]

Lol...so they updated Red Line set combo to fit it with Red Saber and Twin Red Sabers? Good going Sega......

And this Ohtori mission reeks a lot like the catastrophe WoI/R is as GAM mission.

I'm curious what changes they applied on Misty Ruins now.......I hated that mission!

[Nereid]

I'm a bit confused by this new mission actually..will it be an extra stage GAM? Seems weird for a Free Mission to have restrictions. We'll find out on the 2nd, I suppose.

[Crysteon]

Yeah, it's on Extra Stage. So prepare to be bchslapped in the worst way possible, lol.

[Nereid]

lol joy >.> at least it will have 2x AMP...I wonder if the poor fools that get removed from the mission (me) will still get some AMP...

[Crysteon]

If it uses the same mechanics as WoI/R, yes...but you will make the entire party to get less because you fell down, lol. So, in order to get full AMP, DONT DIE!

[Nereid]

The pressure! My poor Storm Lines can't handle it :(

[Midori Oku]

I am willing to bet the Red line set bonus will still be shit! xD

[Crysteon]

I am willing to bet the Red line set bonus will still be shit! xD

I could care less of the bonus, tbh....that wont make me get rid of my Shijins :/...

[pikachief]

i might have to scavenge some change and subscribe for a month for all this AMP goodness :D (just hoping that the rest of the rewards come soon after cuz i want all my DP!)

also PA boost, new mission with new music, and new SUV? :O seems like a pretty awesome update :P Can't wait :)

[redroses]

Pretty nice update, I really like the addition of new BGM.
Hope the new GAM will be nice, I sadly dislike those missions so.

[The Master eye]

mehh still no new PA/techs or miracle blast but a new suv (as if we need more).
At least new BGMs, that makes me kinda happy somehow :P

[Tyreek]

I guess I was right about them adding respective PSP2 music to levels post event. Still waiting on that Mirage Blast though.

[VectormanX]

red line prices just went through the roof yo
nice update, I look forward to seeing this new mission.

Unfortunately, Ohtori Encampment is being delayed. A serious bug was discovered in the mission, and the development team needs more time to work on getting it fixed. Due to this delay, some related items and features will be delayed, too. These include the Ohtori Castle field, new BGM, Red Saber and Meteor Drive. All other content is scheduled for release as planned.

Furthermore, the Maximum Attack Infinity reward of 2x AMP from 1st and extra stage GAMs will remain in effect as scheduled, but it will be reissued when Ohtori Encampment is released. A release date for the mission and related content will be announced at a later date.

thats one of the biggest differences between jp server and xbox (old pc/ps2)...
they find bugs BEFORE they release them on jp and say, sry guys, next week without bugs okay?
on xbox....release it....og a bug.....hmmm, rollback and hmmm 3 star luck for a week?

things like that always make me laugh everytime when i see them XD

[Crysteon]

inb4a360playercomplainsaboutthat

Oh well, I dont mind wating to be honest...this would actually gives me a reason to try out "Misty Pandemonium" for new drops.

[Mike]

Who needs Ohtori castle when you get wedding lobbies?

[Vent]

So basically we get 4 weeks in total of 2x AMP as a compensation? First 2 weeks starting from June 2nd. Second 2 weeks when Ohtori Castle is released, whenever that is...:-P

[str898mustang]

so we aren't getting the new GAM stage? Fine with me, that way I spam Epsilon and get the new drops from Misty whatchamacallit.

Maintenance ended at 18:00 JST and the game was upgraded to 2.0014.6. Numerous files to download from the patch server, but they're relatively small (in the 2-4 MB range) for the most part.

And once again, SonicTeam offer their apologies for not being able to deliver Ohtori Encampment and related items. They're working to fix the problems and will have the mission out as soon as possible.
