PSO2 ◆ Throwback Thursday

With PSO2's 3rd Anniversary coming upon us, I believe we have all made a handful amount of unforgettable memories since this game first came out.
The evolution of our characters, eventful times and hilarious bugs; why not bring some nostalgia to life and share your favorite moments with us? I know I would love to see 'em!


Starting of with the evolution of my main character, Meji.

◆ A sucker for white uniforms. Clearly he's growing more and more confident with the years. Will be interesting to see what's in for him the coming years. ◆[/SPOILER-BOX]

And here's my absolute favorite bug PSO2 ever had back in 2013:
[SPOILER-BOX]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v660/meijerem/pso20121207_231944_030_zpsoktlg88s.jpg

This bug became such a problem (and lasted for months), that the director Sakai even joked about it and dressed up in a glimmering suit himself.
Well played, SEGA!

Damn, that shines so well.

But uh, here's something from way back in 2013 (about 6-7 months after I started playing, also notice the poor graphics of which I will touch on in the next picture): [SPOILER-BOX]http://i.imgur.com/FEWYJY9.jpg I really loved that straw hat with the Selvaria Long hairstyle. Not so much anymore though. xD[/SPOILER-BOX]

Aaaand currently I've come to this: [SPOILER-BOX]http://i.imgur.com/yygAq2D.jpg For the past few months at the very least, I've been using the Long Twintails hairstyle along with the Wild Muffler. Time to have a Wild Muffler for each character! :D[/SPOILER-BOX]

So I guess for me, it'd be an evolution of graphics settings through getting a better toaster. Oh, not to mention the fact that my obsession of the Wild Muffler is increasing... Hey, it floats - okay. ;_;

[Vintasticvin]

=/ Welp, seems like I might have to sit this out since I never stayed with a single look back when I was a big time Phasion Model =[ Still I member my first normal look though xD.

[Reiketsu]

Too lazy to get my external hard drive out and search for images, but I still got this here:

[SPOILER-BOX]http://i.imgur.com/PoAzuxP.png[/SPOILER-BOX]
August 2012. Got trapped inside those barriers that usually appear around containers.
Had to wait for someone in the MPA to activate the switch and get me out. That was fun.

Back then I still loved Gunslashes. I don't think I used one in the past two years.
My main character also had much darker skin and was a loli.
From the beginning, I kinda wanted her to get progressively older and turn her into an old granny when the servers go down one day, lol

rappy train!

Really nice idea, Meji ! :-) I don't have time to check all my data (I take around 200 screenshots per day so I have to save on external drives) but here's a quick preview of my main character Terrence from 2012 to 2015.

[strikerhunter]

Don't have my old screenshots of my 2 oldest characters but I do still have some of one I'm very fund of, he didn't become active until 2014 but he was created late 2012 early 2013 originally as an Support Partner.

[SPOILER-BOX]Mini was born originally as a support partner around late 2012. SS was taken way after his creation though.
[SPOILER-BOX]http://www.pso-world.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=2798&pictureid=39701[/SPOILER-BOX]
A few months later I made him as a playable character, right after Q did an art of him with a couple of other characters which I can't find anymore. However, he would remain as an inactive character until late 2013.

Lol! Kind of wanna put the title "Diving 101" in that image.


[SPOILER-BOX]http://i.imgur.com/mEHaKKC.jpg[/SPOILER-BOX]Seems we both have a similarity in going "back to the roots" in 2014.


Aaaand currently I've come to this: [SPOILER-BOX]http://i.imgur.com/yygAq2D.jpg[/SPOILER-BOX]Whoa, looks totally different. Suppose it's the hair color. Seems like your GPU also had quite the change though. I remember myself buying some new cards just for the sake of PSO2. (*´ω｀)

[Ezodagrom]

Took a bunch of pics using hairstyles and such that I've used in the past with Johana, felt it'd be more fun than reposting old pics. ^^

Full version of the pics in the fashion topic:
http://www.pso-world.com/forums/showpost.php?p=3269043&postcount=1576

I used the first 3 styles throughout the first year.
The fourth one I used for a long time, pretty much until the end of last year.
The first one of the bottom row was just a "sleepy" look that I used a few times, the second I used for a short time just for a change, but ended going back to the fourth of the first row, and the last two are the ones I used mostly nowadays (especially the last one).

Memories wise, I think one of the best moments I had in PSO2 was fighting Dark Falz Loser for the first time, taking over 20 minutes, that fight was intense.

It's a shame I lost most of my screenshots from 2012-2013, because I don't have a lot to show off.

My favorite bug might have been the 8+ Falz Arms at once, because it was a real mess and way more fun than the regular fight :D : .
It's a shame SEGA didn't do something like that for higher difficulties.

I don't have pics of it, but i know for sure last time i saw them was in the last Christmas EQ we got (i don't remember if i was in SH or XH though since i was doing both difficulty on it lol). They seem (or seemed?) to appear only on 12 players mpa though
