I'll just be the first to step in to say these look great, but I hope they're not just more numbers upgrades. It would be nice to see different weapons actually have special abilities that change the way you interact with the game, and are therefor given an actual reason to hunt for them.

This. So much.

I'm going to be very disappointed if new weapons don't start having unique abilities encouraging different gameplay styles, etc.

If it's just basically the same as every other item with +10 attack stats, that's disappointing

Edit: Oh, and that partisan does look quite good. I'm guessing Chainsawd will look better ingame

Sayara

Chainsawd potential: +30 T-Def when below 25% HP

In reality it needs to do life steal.
Isnt that already an ability though?

Also, I believe the first partisan is a Brionac:

Yay for Double Cannon, but it won't be of any surprise to me if it's fucking impossible to find and the same goes for Chain Sawd.

Mar 22, 2013, 02:05 AM

@Zyrusticae: Well, it's been known for a while that the Motav Prophecy was in the data wasn't it? So it's not really new information like the ones posted.

Personally, I'm waiting for the Arc Saber to come out. I always wanted to be able to swing it like a sword in Infinity, but in PSO 2, I should finally be able to do that. :3

But I like the Divine Amaterasu (http://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2013/06/1360093028-amaterasu.jpg)...

Note that the black parts are actually supposed to be a transparent texture, so you can imagine what it looks like without the black. Y'know, like this (http://psupedia.info/File%253AAmaterasu.jpg.html).

That might be true since we haven't seen a El Ahdi in AQs and it's all red(The original soul banish photons remained green.)

Also forces have that Flower rod people found around the same time they found the hot spring team rooms.

I am glad to see another PSU item. Makes me hold out hope for a sweet death and Okarod.

Somehow, I'm doubting these will be special outside of the whole nostalgia factor.

Chainsawd was my weapon of choice for my HUcast on GC, but I was kind of hoping for Lavis Blades. Still, Kuna's Daggers look awesome.

There are lavis blades, if you mean daggers.

OP didn't copy everything I posted in the original post I made on /vg/, so its not in this topic

It should be Soul Banish, rather than Banisher (but I seem to think PSP2 called it Banisher?), and Twin Cannon is probably called Double Cannon (Twin Cannon was a Lavis Cannon in each hand in PSP2I).

Good to see Chain Sawd back, but unless Sega make the weapons unique in some way they probably won't keep me interested. Part of the charm of PSO was the special abilities weapons had (like HP steal on Chain Sawd and so on). It'd be nice to see some disparity between different weapons in PSO2, but aside from Weapon Potential there doesn't seem to be anything like that which is a shame.

Still, I'm all for extra weapons getting added- shame they'll either be constantly dropping or never dropping like everything else in PSO2 :disapprove: I really wish they'd fix how messed up the droprates are.

Edit: The black/purple assault rifle is a recoloured version of Frozen Shooter.

Gotta say, that unknown sword is indeed pretty sexy.

I hope that Sonic Knuckle isn't the finished product, I can count the polygons from here :/. But on a more serious note, I'll be really disappointed if those knux don't enhance your speed in any shape or form. They did F'ed up the Brave Knux so they'll probably going to ruin these as well.

Chain Sawd is exactly the same as it's been (albiet higher res now) since PSOv1. I don't see the problem.

Then again I don't play Warhammer so I suppose I may have a bias.

Mar 22, 2013, 12:46 PM

All those 3d pictures looked of low quality to me. May be just how they're displayed in the program the miner is using.

Just so you guys know, the "low quality" of the pictures is just the way it was rendered and/or the fact the model wasn't fixed up when imported to look how it should. For an example...
[spoiler-box]
This is the model faceted, with all "polygons" or faces and tris clearly visible.
http://i.imgur.com/XDiPEcA.jpg

This is the model untextured, but smoothed out just for an idea of how much changes just between that and smoothing.
http://i.imgur.com/FqFg6Gp.jpg

...and here's the model with a few of the more fancy maps looking relatively close to how it would ingame.

Not quite. In the original there was a high emphasis on photons themselves being the blades, like lightsabers. So in the original you had no actual metal edges, just cyan photons. It's part of why I absolutely adored the weapon.

http://www.pso-world.com/images/items/chainsawd4.jpg[/SPOILER-BOX]

It was such a hilarious and inefficient application of the [S]spacemagic technology that it was impossible to not love the weapon. It's like every 14 year old's fanfic come true - Luke puts his lightsaber away and runs around with a LIGHTCHAINSAW and cuts shit up because I guess a regular solid lightsaber blade just wasn't fucking good enough.

Now they're turning it into a standard metal chainsaw that glows.

[SPOILER-BOX]http://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2013/06/1360093043-chainsword.jpg[/SPOILER-BOX]

Not sure I like the change, but not much to be done about it now I guess. Most of these nostalgia/legacy items are reinterpretations, which in many ways I prefer over just up-resed copypastes. That means some liberties need to be taken for some weapons, and in this case it just wasn't one I liked.

Uh, I still see metal blades within the photon blade. Hell they're even animated to spin. Or did you mean the fact that the photon blade was OUTSIDE of the metal spinny bits, rendering them pointless?

That might still be the case in-game, these screenshots seem to be missing a bit of the whole picture with a lot of these weapons.

As far as I ever noticed - granted, I never took a magnifying glass to my TV or recorded video and zoomed in - the photon blades were what was spinning.

The weapons in this game desperately need special attacks to make them more diverse. I remember in late game PSO I would have 12 or more weapons depending on the class I'd play. PSO2 I probably have 5 at a maximum.

Hmm... I noticed that, too. The only way it seems like that would work was if it had two chains that each go through the inside of the bar and spin outward from the center in opposite directions, but it looks like it's just one chain that wraps all the way around the bar without going through it.

I wish someone good would pick up that series and give it another go. Both incarnations were solid brawlers.(One more hand to hand based the other more survival utilizing the terrain and items.)

Sometimes I wish they said to hell with PvP. And just added a powerstone esque brawler option. With whatever weapon you have in slot one determine you fighting style.

The cool part is that was the soul eater.

The uncool part is we already have it and it doesn't do anything special but offer tatk and is allclass.

The cooler part is that pic is of a soul banish, which shot megid instead of sacrificing health for more damage!

The uncool part is it probably won't do that here :disapprove:
