View Full Version : JP PSO2 Nov. 6th Live Broadcast

Nov 1, 2012, 04:50 AM
On November 6th, there will be another PSO 2 live broadcast on Niconico Nama:

http://live.nicovideo.jp/watch/lv113740549

It will be broadcast from 9pm ("doors opening" at 8:50) for around two hours. It'll feature more information on the first half of the November update as well a bit on the second half. It'll also feature more gameplay from the same people who did such a poor job last time.

I believe 9pm at night in Japan would be 6am for central US so adjust your timezones accordingly. If you can't watch it for some reason or other, head to the above link and click on the yellow clock icon and then click on the same button in the pop-up. This will allow you to watch the show once after it has ended.


Daylight savings time ends this weekend in the US, so I think the times are going to be the following (somebody correct me if I'm wrong):

7:00am EST / 6:00am CST / 5:00am MST / 4:00am PST

Awesome, it was pretty entertaining watching them struggle and commenters doing their comment thing the last time. I still have no idea what does "Dragon Sakai Ganbare!" mean.

Though their schedule seems to be a bit off. Didn't they tease us with a December stuff trailer the last time? Are we gonna get anything like that this time?

i hope this is open to be watched by memebers that dont have a premium account on that site...

It's "open", but if they are too many people watching, it's the non-premium members that get kicked.

Anyway, starting in 2 minutes - too bad I won't be able to watch it, but I hope someone will take notes of the interesting parts.

It's not premium only. That's how Nico Nico rolls, Sega has no say in it, if they want to use that site.

If you get kicked, just refresh this (http://live.nicovideo.jp/watch/lv113740549) link. Don't try to F5 the error screen.

Guess many people here first time on Niconico live stream/

it is very common, and always been like this for a year now.
When the quota is full, premium member will get space taken from non-premium members.
it isn't quite nice, but this is how they always are. Basically premium member will get priority in the slot.

Anyway, I suggest non-premium members to use the "time shift" menu to watch it later, I think you can do that only once, and if you choose the time that you don't have to compete with any premium member (when JP sleep) then you can watch it easy.
it is a feature to save video temporary to watch it later. (but can only do it once per video) So you won't watching it live, but you will watch the save version of it, and can only watch one time.

For those interested:
Streaming should be a fairly simple process;
Register here: http://new.livestream.com/home
Install this: http://cdn.livestream.com/mds/LivestreamProcaster-20.3.0.exe
(I'm a bit foggy on the next part) Run it, make and set a channel, click "go live" and open whatever window has the niconico stream in it.
Link to your channel here.

Might have to screw around a bit to get everything working, but it'll probably get you mad props with the community and it's a useful skill to learn.

I've missed the whole thing, so could you specify what this means?

My Fighter has ~5.9m SP. I intentionally stopped raising that class in case some might get wasted after they lower the reqs (also readying other classes for minimum level requirements). Does this mean I'll suddenly be 100k away from level 50?

Keiko_Seisha
Nov 6, 2012, 08:41 AM
what was up with that poll?

The first poll asked what gender your character was in PSO2.

The second asked what your actual real gender was.

You saw the results. Something like 72% female characters and 83% male players. Watching the stream anyway.

The status screen we saw in-game was a level 50 character with about 6m exp. So if that's indication of the exp change then yeah you'll be really close to level 50 come patch.

Story-wise, summoning Falz may be the Arks true purpose. The 8th and 9th story missions will probably be full of surprises.

EDIT: Zeno or Echo will probably kick the bucket.

If that's what ends up happening, it'd be a peculiar twist and basically every Arks was tricked into assisting instead of actually preventing it.
My guess, Echo, since a female character always dies in Phantasy Star; it's a staple, may it be half way through the story or at the very end.

Edit: Thanks, Mizuno!

Wait, I thought that meant you could redeem an excube for 30 grinders. Does it mean you can BUY an excube with 30 grinders?

Hell yes. I may have burned 630 grinders in one sitting, but I still have nearly an entire stack to cash in on 8-)

Just read on bumped that hitstop for wands will be reduced. This is probably the best change for techer so far. It really messed with the flow when hitting a second thing meant having to delay your rhythm of attacks to get JA. Other melee weapons have a grace period in the JA where hitting even 3 things doesn't require changing your button pressing rhythm, it was silly that wands had such a small window.

Prices are that high because they are dictated by the fact that the potential supply is cut-off thanks to a pay-wall while demand is as big as it ever could get since everyone has access to buying stuff on shops.

No, prices are this high because new rares are actually worth getting, and they chew grinders up like no tomorrow.

Demand has gone way up. Supply may have also gone down a bit, but I wouldn't say that's the main reason prices are going up.

Must have been kicked for that part cause I sure don't remember that.

EDIT: Going back over the time shift, that's right. Wand attack animation speed is going to be increased, the area that counts as a hit for wands is being increased, decreased hitstop time, boosted shifta/deband skills, a longer and wider Territory Burst, and more damage from the wand gear. No word on skill tree resets though. Of course.

Demand has gone way up. Supply may have also gone down a bit, but I wouldn't say that's the main reason prices are going up.

Rares were always getting worth getting, even if they had lower base -ATK, just because you had the hidden ability boost/Another History/Lucky Rise/etc.

Demand may have gone up but the prices wouldn't be as bad if the [uneducated guess on %] 90% of the playerbase could get rid off their saved up grinders that they don't use. As it is, the prices will only rise and the people who will suffer from this the most are those who don't have a shop pass and this is pretty stupid considering how Sakai effectively cockblocked the actualy taking effort ways of getting meseta. It's slowly getting as bad as I initially thought it'd get when we were switching from the open beta to launch phase.

gigawuts
Nov 6, 2012, 10:15 AM
Rares were obviously always worth getting, but that didn't mean everyone got them nor did it mean everyone got new ones every update.

Ardillou was the best sword from Hard's release until set bonuses were implemented - and then the aristin only marginally outperformed it. Most new rares did not outperform the adillou series of rares. The only exception is IIRC launchers.

Now EVERYONE is upgrading EVERYTHING. 6*'s massively outperform 5*'s, so everyone who settled for uncommons is upgrading. Everyone who used the best of the best is upgrading to 10*'s, which chew through grinders like a fat guy through twinkies. Players like me who settled on dinian equipment because it was "good enough" are now upgrading to the new "good enough" gear, which tends to be 50%+ stronger. Everyone who had "good enough" before is now looking at an upgrade on the level or above the level of last patch's top end gear.

Everyone.

And that's who uses grinders the most - the community at large.

Supply largely remained the same. Demand did not.

Did they address RMT/bots at all? I feel Sega is doing a poor job of handling this. Go into just about any block and you're bound to find plenty of locked 1/12 rooms of level 40 rangers named audfiagfasdf with account ID asodfhusgsadf. Also the top 20 weekly container ranking are all bots.

Yeah, that's true. I remember the first time I did Vol's story quest before nerf...it was fun fighting it undergeared, lol....of course, it wasnt hard at all but it was a Lv 40 Vol during the time cap was still 40. To someone who barely takes 3-5 minutes to beat regular bosses, the current nerfs on story mode are highly disappointing.

Too bad this game doesnt have an extreme boss rushing mode where you fight fully boosted Lv 50 bosses one after another :/ .

I'm somewhat glad we don't have that. I remember my first exposure to Towards the Future in PSO1: "oh man this is the best thing ever!"

Apparently people still feel that way ~10 years later since that is still the only thing people do.

Actually come to think of it boss experience is much lower in this game. So a boss rush mode wouldn't be spammable for EXP. I'm all for it!

Falz Hunar is actually Gettemhart.
They even spoiled it with cutscene that has him fighting Xeno in front of same obelisk.



EDIT: Zeno or Echo will probably kick the bucket.


Pretty sure none of partner characters will die, nor the ones who pop in emergencies will.

Wait it wasn't obvious from the first trailer?

>Humanoid falz in general...

>Punches things

>Stands like a thug

>Not real falz

Conclusion: Obviously captain douchebag gettumhart. : D

Yeah, so long as each boss wasn't counted as a Code, it'd be a nice way to keep EXP insanity in check. Though with a smart party with good setups you could probably clear every boss in the game in like 3 minutes flat loading times aside.

Edit: I'm pretty sure we've all wanted to beat Gettemhawt the hell up since a certain chapter.

Story Spoiler.

It is Gettemhart, the script for the next story chapter has been in the game's data for quite a good while.

Edit: Hrm Correction, he turns into / gets possessed by "Falz."

Has any thought why the obelisk is there? It's like Ragol's but the four outer Pillar's aren't there. hmm...... in the pic of the white mage that is thought of as Lutz in PSO also didn't have the four outer pillar's or the Original PSO. But In PSU there are four outer pillar's to the main obelisk, And that is supposedly Falz's memories in VR forum. This one has little humps where the other pillar's should be....... "IS" Naberius = Ragol ? different reality maybec or after PSO, before PSU (with the data since it's not the same place). IF it's the later then what happen to the people of PSO1? maybec it's Shion, Matoi and Masked man?

I'd quite like a story mission that pulled us through each planet to do the pillars.

But then, that was PSO1, so PSO2 can be its own game too.

Snap, it looks like you fight Falz Hunar at the foot of a slightly-familiar-looking, albeit a bit 'modernized', stone obelisk.

Also, looks like the next non-special female outfit is another loli getup. Great.

Well, the last outfit was the dancer outfit, the fairy outfit should be...interesting on your chara wwwww

Yes, the Close Quarter. Glad someone agrees with me. Of course, like I pointed out, I'd like some feminine modifications, like small heel-platforms and a very little cleavage window i dunno

A female Close Quarter would be nice for sure, but it's pretty hard to imagine how a male version of Echo's outfit would look like (or a male Neighbour Quartz/Thousand Rim. XD). :3 Still, I'm all for more choices for both male and female characters.

@Sizustar: Also, what Shinto outfit are you talking about?

I would enjoy watching gettemhalt going all rico on everybody's asses.

Personally speaking, I'm more concerned about the fate of Mel Von Shina, that Newman girl that's been forced to endure Gettemhalt's said douchebaggery (even so much as directly being the victim of it).

From the looks of it, she's interacting with that obelisk in a way that doesn't seem safe - I seriously pray she doesn't end up getting killed because of what Gettemhalt does (or if she does, then I seriously hope Gettemhalt mourns her passing when he snaps out of his Falz-induced rage).

It seems to me though that Shion knows WAY too much - for a simple existence "that is only allowed to observe", she can change fate way too much. I get the feeling she's not exactly alive - something happened in her time, and her spirit was catapulted BACK in time to correct events that would eventually kill her.

My theory - everything Shion had us do gave us a shot at actually preventing Falz's victory in the future. Shion KNEW that the fight was rigged, so she went back to make sure we could actually have a fair fight against Falz.

Also, if those ships are the Darker's Den, then my belief is that our fight won't be in just one of those, but we'll be hopping from den to den in order to reach the motherden, leading to the fight with its heart, a la PSU's SEED-Colony Dulk Falkis.

EDIT - Couldn't help but notice Sizustar's post. Permission to dress Fourier and Echo in the sluttiest outfit in-game currently?

Ah. I suppose it's fortunate that they aren't MY main characters. XD I normally hate bad stuff happening to protagonist-like characters, even if they are NPCs. I wonder if whatever happens will be permanent, or reversed later while playing with the timeline with Shion.

I guess that's why I didn't see the hint. The posted video's just the promo trailer, not the commentary.
