Phantasy Star Online 2 Says Not to Build Nukes

[Manta Oyamada]

Do you read the end user license agreements for software? No? You should. Sometimes they say important things. Like not to build nukes.

Translated to English it reads:

7. Prohibition of Misappropriation

The user agrees not to use this software for the purpose of development, manufacturing and use of weapons of mass destruction (including nuclear weapons, chemical weapons, biological weapons, and missiles). This item does not condone the previously stated activities outside of the boundaries agreed to in this end user license agreement. :-o:-o

Manta. Kotaku. Need I say more?

[TaigaUC]

Sounds misogynistic.

[KLMS1]

I'll be sure to heed that prohibition after I've gotten my hypercentrifuge banks built. The neighbours keep complaining about the noise...

[Vintasticvin]

More bullshit being spewed? Kotaku is pretty much the tabloids of the gaming news world.

I wonder if they just copy pasted TOS from the PS3 or something.
Remember when people reported that the PS3 could launch nukes?

Um.

I don't see how this is relevant or why you guys are going on about this here.

You can translate it yourself... it is exactly as they say it is. :-?

[untrustful]

We all know the boring reason they included this clause.

We all choose to believe there's mad scientists out there, making their underage fonewearls in pso2 for the evil purpose of holding the world hostage for 1 million dollars.

[sparab]

To be specific, you are prohibited to build weapon of mass destruction using the BENCHMARK/CHARACTER CREATOR

The main game software, on the other hand, can be used for such a cause without receiving any consequence (from Sega)

[EvilMag]

So you have to deal with PSO2's shitty coding to build a nuke.

What happens if you have a bad client when trying to fire the nuke?

[Shadowth117]

What happens if you have a bad client when trying to fire the nuke?

North Korea's nuclear program.

[Bellion]

Bad client nuke?
-Stutters from loading globe
-Stutters from loading every single human
-Stutters when even one human changes clothes
-ETA delayed indefinitely
-Logs out to find better client

[Maenara]

>make game
>put up on steam for 99 cents
>fast forward 3 years
>some hacker asshole manages to launch a nuke into the UK
>they catch the guy
>my game is installed on his laptop
>mfw I forgot to include 'pls no make nuke using gaem' in my ToS
>mfw I'm a global criminal

Imagine Dudu Ability affixing nukes.
Success
Blow Resist III 90%
Failure
Nuclear Materials 90%
Detonator 95%
Sakai Fever 90%

"It appears you had bad luck."

It'll freeze a couple seconds, and while airborne it'll stutter a lot before it hit the target, just to wait another minute before it really explode.
Also you can see a semi-transparent blue-red circle on it.

you...you dont get around a lot review sites do you?

[Misaki Ki]

It's how they decided to balance FO!

[yoshiblue]

Would be interesting if this is related to the Magatsu incident. So in a sense it would telling you not to create a large boss destroyer or dooooooom with be brought upon you.

Glad to see like minded people.

Dont give Kotaku clicks. EVER.

All of Gawker is fucking garbage and the company needs to be shut down.

Sorry about that. When I wrote the post, I thought, was that PS2?

Time sure flies.

So the secret to stop nukes is have everyone in the world keep switching between Nishiki and Orboro?
