Woah, the floating islands look so pretty and like so much fun! The enemies are weak to dark which is interesting.
And the crystal dragon is so beautiful and it's nice to see it's not just a vol dragon reskin. It has some really nice attacks!

The summer lobby looks really cute aswell. Ah, can't wait for all these updates!

I'm not gonna lie. I was expecting a reskinned Vol Dragon when I heard about the Ice Dragon. I stand happily corrected. I guess that's his boss music playing? It's fine. Vader's is better, but it's fine.

Sega wasn't joking when they said monthly content. I'm sure this has been in the works since before the game launched, but considering the mines weren't even meant to be released until Fall, Sega has me genuinely impressed.

Well, impressed when comparing to my experience on PSOBB. I'm interested to see if they can keep up this pacing when they're working on entirely new content. Third areas for planets? New planets? I have nfi.

Either way this is going great, and I can't wait to wear that tube to make my cast buoyant.

Oh yeah, and anyone else notice we're seeing successively less skin per AC theme? In before nudist colony ac scratch.

The islands look awesome and so does the new boss.
Looks like a lot of the enemies on the islands are going to be weak against dark, which is good because we don't have many of those besides Rappies.

Also I think I might die because of the cuteness of the summer rappies.

To avoid any confusion:

August 1st: Bikinis and new clothes, summer lobby (till 08/29), fang banshee/banser, summer rappy
August 8th: Floating islands, Quartz Dragon, new weapons and units, mw NPC (till 09/26)
Later in August: possibily new story quests

He's been called Ice Crystal Dragon: Quartz Dragon up until now.

Do rare rappies actually even attack ? I've only seen them sing a couple of times, and then, well, they got caught in a PA attack...

The update looks nice, too.

So it's the folks at g-heaven fault, as it was never called 氷結晶龍クォーツ・ドラゴン, they just added a caption with 氷結晶龍クォーツ・ドラゴン on the part of magazine scan (http://www.g-heaven.net/image/2012/07/120726a_0305.jpg).

I don't see how that would have any bearing on an appearance based nickname. I see crystal dragon or just his normal name catching on better though.

Blackheart521
Jul 27, 2012, 04:38 AM
I kinda see him being more light based looking, like his body is made of quartz so it reflects and refracts light to focus it into it's attacks. ^^;

Edit: and I'll be calling him Quartz Dragon, sounds cooler haha

Enforcer MKV
Jul 27, 2012, 04:41 AM

Then again, the dragon looks like it's made of ice, at least possibly, so it's plausible.

Xaeris
Jul 27, 2012, 04:46 AM
I remember something being said about the Fang panther boss only appearing as an Emergency mission, to begin with. I'm wondering how that's going to work. An hour of boss rushing sounds fun, but if it's like the first Emergency mission, it's just going to be another installment in running around in a multi party evaporating mobs until time runs out.

Which isn't...well, I mean I guess it's okay. I just like to fight bosses, you know?

ShadowDragon28
Jul 27, 2012, 04:49 AM
Floating Islands looks AWESOME, Quartz Dragon looks deadly murderous and extremely tough to fight. Nice new stuff... still hoping for some new Human-male Hunter clothing/ or more Cross Quarter Suit color/design varients... (sigh)

I really wish some people would not call new enemies "re-skins". >:-{

Ce'Nedra
Jul 27, 2012, 04:50 AM
I love boss fights as well, I really hope we get more huge bosses like Vader that we can break tons of parts from. Starting to look more like Monster Hunter though...Where is my Switch Axe?

What you mean with Emergency Mission anyway? If its EMERGENCY CODE: ATTACK you mean which also has the other bosses then it's just fine. Forest can use some spicing up after only Rockbears and Dark Ragne, though it might be a little tough for new players...then again it prepares them for Tundra later on. That and they will be lower level then in Tundra as well so easier to kill.

@shadow: That's because PSU was basiclly just reskin after reskin and people get bored of that...

Then again name me a RPG that does not reskin monsters, heck even the earlier RPG's like Final Fantasy's and Secret of Mana and such have reskins. It's nothing new really though.

Emergency missions = the random 1 hour missions (currently only the urban area)
And iirc on bumped it was explained that you just need to kill them once for them to start appearing in forests for you.

Anyone that knows even a little about 3-D modeling, skeletal rigging & key framing videogame characters knows how insanely time consuming and intesive it can be.

Template Skeletal Rigs/with similar key-frame animation routines are used in MANY major videogames. But the NPC's are often given new outer polygonal shells and often new attacks, and they aren't just swapped Texture maps. Just because say "Crystal Dragon" has the same skeletal Rig and shares some key-framed animations with the Vol Dragon doesn't neccessarily make it a "re skin" IMO.

Xaeris
Jul 27, 2012, 05:00 AM
Did anyone actually call it a reskin?

Edit: Screw it, it's too late for this passive aggressive nonsense. No one's called it a reskin. The only mentions of reskins have been from people relieved that it's not a reskin.

Well, yeah. People aren't calling him a reskin - he's obviously not.

People were just assuming before seeing the actual creature that it was going to be a reskin. Because of PSU. *points at Xaeris* Closest to actually calling it a reskin is what he said.

Yeah, but I predict a few ppl will still complain and call some enemies "re-skins".

July ~ August added all up is more content added to PSO2 than I ever expected.. ffs I haven't even unlocked Tundra or Mines yet!

I have so many client orders and stuck on Matter Board 2 still LOL.

Im kinda' overwhelmed! Im not used to so much dang content so "fast". lol

what is Sakai going to do months from now? A year from now? New planets? Re-visit Ragol's areas but give them the "300 yrs of decay" treatment? A Space Station? VR missions?

Not at all, unless they manage to finish the emergency quest at least once. Sega has stated before that once you beat those Beasts for the first time in the emergency quest, they will start appearing for you at Forest. That doesn't discard the possibility that another player who did the quest before might trigger the spawns to those who havent, lol.

According to the timeline the next new field isnt until mid fall and the next one after that isn't until winter. The time line kind of goes quiet after that.

My curiosity is, are they going to use a new area every 1-3 months has the hook for this game as it goes on? Granted they can just add new areas for the sake of new weapons and armor and not simply for the sake of leveling.:-? I don't know, I am enjoying the game so far, so I guess I am being unnecessarily critical.

I avoid spoilers too myself, but usually only when it comes to story and plot. I don't mind getting info on new content as long as its vague enough to not ruin things, like your friend telling Aeris(Aerith) dies when you're first starting FF7.

Also, I wouldn't mind there being a normal mode for all this new content...in fact I'm not sure why there isn't. Level 20~ for normal and 35~ for hard, that seems reasonable.

yea really, my friend spent a long time in lvs 20-24 that when he got to lvl 25 and realized the best place to level is still desert, just hard mode, he kinda gave up on PSO2.

There needs to be normal variants of these new missions and there's no reason why there's not. Just make it so that you have to do the hard mode versions to unlock them! (you know so you can beat Desert Hard Timee Attack and then start playing Tundra Normal at like lvl 25.)

My friend hasn't signed on in 2 weeks after playing this everyday and loving it. Now he's too bored with the lack of content at lvl 20-29 he just doesnt want to play anymore.

Oh yeah, and anyone else notice we're seeing successively less skin per AC theme? In before nudist colony ac scratch.

i think the furthest they'll go is string bikinis or something that cover less, like the psu stripper outfit ryna posted for us

although i'd dig the nudist colony ac scratch dood. i'd dig it hard n' slow if u no wat im sayn loloolollo

but no

after summer, i'm guessing the costumes will be like this.

august - swimsuits
september - school outfits
october - Halloween related (lol nvm i forgot asians don't have halloween the same months we do)
november - not sure
december - santa suits
january-may dunno, random costumes or something
2013 june/july/august skimpier bikinis

tl;dr above guesses are pretty bad but basically i don't think we'll see anything skimpier than bikinis until next summer where they can give us skimpier bikinis.

Well Shota Mike, you have impressed me. For once.

Hmph, we all know who the real shota is on this forum.

Call me stupid, but I had no idea this was going to be the floating island update. I shall now proceed to call the new boss Crystal Dragon Jesus.

Oh good, I get an extra week to work on client orders. Hopefully I'll get enough exp from those to level my ranger. I guess a week is enough to do everything I need to.


Mixed with every other sky area in an RPG game ever, but mostly that.

Skies of Arcadia. Definitely.

So I'm assuming you receive the joke weapons through an event? At least I think that's what I gathered from the trailer anyway. I'm looking forward to swinging a tuna :3

That tuna weapon will be a drop from Summer Rappies. And I have this feeling they will be as rare as Rappy Cannons (lolmarket)

Looks like SEGA designed the bikinis to be a little bit tight around the tushy area. The girl on the left seems to be having an issue.

Also, the HUnewearl's bellybutton streaks all the way up to her ribs. Kind of funny.

Well, that would make sense since the Summer Rappies will be event related and won't be there forever. Also, if it does drop like the Rappy Cannon, then great. I found two of those today while I was farming for something else, lol.

The new areas and that code attack looks like a really nice arena death-match thing going on.
But lolz when those guys were fighting the forest panther they failed lolz (heard of dodging?)

New stuff looks great!

I'm just happy they're actually wearing bras of their size. No under/sideboob! Although I can understand if some people think of that as a con.

I feel like it looks weird. A more triangle shaped bikini top would be more flattering than having them round and making the bewbs look like water balloons (Esp the HUney in the green, I mean look at them!)

I'm on the fence about the bikinis in regards to shelling out the meseta for one, but I do know I'm getting that cute lacy corset costume.

Well, if you insist.

My only gripe is the belly button, what the heck is up with the line there? Doesn't show up on my HUmarl...though she is slighty more toned then the Hunewreal.

Yeah, I think the bellybutton only wigs out like that if the character in question has like zero musculature. So I certainly won't have to worry.

Maybe. Here's hoping that doesn't result in any oddities of its own though. I'm going to be severely displeased to obtain this thing only to find its unwearable because my character's back looks like it's stitched together at the spine, or something stupid.
