I wonder... the game is very popular in Japan to make these events? I say this because I will prefer they spend the money in the development of the game, I'm sure with F2P model the budget is very limited

Based on ID numbers, PSU on Japan had like 250k+ or so accounts by the end, PSO2 far surpassed that at the beginning.

I saw what looked like a bunch of QoL stuff. Did anyone catch what it was? All I got was being able to exchange more weapons for cubes at the exchange shop at once.

Also, looks like a new TA, and something to do with Candies. Also I'm glad the new pets explode from a PA and not just randomly when taking too much damage.

Non-prem would need to empty their list of COs to get a full benefit of the TACOs.

Still, that would save a LOT of time for weekly TACOs. And should be there in the first place when TACO was first invented.

Looking at all the scratches I guess this confirms that regular costumes are going to go the way of the dodo, good job they're letting N/H TACOS get cleared on higher difficulties if we're all going to have to spend 40m per basewear.

Also can we just rename the game "Phantasy 13 Star Online" at this point? We only got the Tokyo set a few weeks ago and that FF is already a graveyard, now we're getting yet another set that is EQ only.

I only started when 12*s were being properly added and I don't really think you can compare those to 13*s. They weren't introducing near full sets of those on a monthly basis that made the previous ones "obsolete", nor did you need to grind extreme numbers of low drop rate stones to get them. Also lets be fair, they weren't a massive upgrade from 11*s.

Well, I wasn't active on PSO2 3 years ago; so while for you guys *15 in PSO2 was an old news, that's a new info for me.
And in-case it wasn't obvious, my response to the *15 was half-joking and exaggerated on-purpose.

His TACOs are all getting removed and being replaced with N+ ones (like the Wopal one) that give 60K Meseta each, and the 3 XQCOs (meseta unknown).
However there still seems to be 1 CO that is "Clear a TA on VH+" for 200K.

A.I.S. support package, Dendrobium Orchis-style. Can be merged to become a huge battlesuit, then go on full-space battle against PD's flower form.

I am currently imagining ARKS piloting AIS in heavy weapons support platforms like the METEOR/DENDROBIUM ORCHIS and blasting away at PD while NPCs like Sierra shoot support lasers from ships 1~10 in the background.
This will be awesome.

For extra win, make the Oracle a Macross-style transformable mothership with a TD4 cutscene style photon cannon charging sequence.

Only numbers they gave were:

Nab 1 CO is 60K Meseta (Normal+)
VH+ x1 CO is 200K Meseta

The other TAs are probably also 60K, while the VH x?/? are probably like 400K, 600K, but you'll need to wait until March 9 to see that. There's no more COs than those apart from the XQCO I believe, as the scroll bar is kind of short, but we could be surprised.

Speaking of EMs, ever since the current Valentines' Day was basically modelled after a Daytona track, and contains the King of Speed as its BGM, I figured they'd do it again for White Day 2016. Especially since one of the tracks is called "Sky High", and White Day EM typically takes place high up in the Floating Continent in the skies.

Well, Kimura outright confirmed that the BGM playing in that EM is going to be Sky High, though its too bad they couldn't actually model the map after the Expert course. (It's still the exact same map they've used for the last 3 years.)

Ok so we got new Opening, new equipements (rings), new lobby area, new pets.... many unexpectd things BUT still no infos about those weapon camos/costume/room items/accessories from Designer contest? It should have come in March like the previous ones especially since the results were showed around the same time than previous contests (end of September)...... :-? (Yes, i'm want those things (the DS/Launcher camo and #1 costume especially ^^;) more than new EQ (i was hoping for Magatsu Heri tbh), pets or new Opening movie..........)

Putting contest items hype aside, a word about the Phantom ship. Well, i honestly can't be really hyped about that for 2 reasons :
1) We're fighting a lifeless structure (not even a mecha), just a a big mass of weapons on a ship which has a so famliar design i can hardly consider it as even a boss and more like an area in itself.
2) I find the reveal of that ship too soon. We still don't even know what the threat is in EP4 and even less in what way this ship is a threat to ARKS or Earth to the point of sending multiple AIS, and yet we got this reveal before getting 2nd part of Chapter1 combined with the very common look of that ship, the hype can't get to me this time.
I'll certainly be more interested in that EQ once i know more about EP4 story, but as of now it's like i have no reasons to. I really need the context to get into that Phantom thing. Usually a well designed boss can be enough for me but with Phantoms, by taking real life thing of our current time, there is nothing to get from their design (except for Train Ghidoras that managed to got me interested by itself) so there is only the context or story left for them which is still unknown.

I find that situaton pretty ironic : EP3 revelation didn't got me hyped with that feudal Japan theme, but at release and afterward i got really interested in Harukotan ; for EP4 it's becoming the opposite, i got pretty hyped when they reveled it but after the release, it wasn't as interested as it seemed, and next things are not looking like they'll help

It's the Yamato. With a whole swarm of Type-0. To better understand the trailer, imagine that ARKS are launching an assault against a giant bald eagle who wields a 1911 in one claw and The Constitution in the other, and it responds by unleashing hordes of Abrams tanks and F-16 fighters.

So I took a more detailed look at exactly what Sega was planning in regards to adjustments to Klotho's COs. As people have previously mentioned it seems to involve condensing COs by relaxing their clear difficulty. Sega's goal is to make us spend less time doing mundane TAs for the xth amount of time and more time on 'other content' (read Gathering). According to their estimates, TACOs and various stuff which used to take around 2 hours will now take 1 hour but only pay out 70% of the original rate. However to compensate they're also adding in gathering related COs where you can sell rare materials you find for large amounts of meseta. This will bump up your meseta from COs to around 90% of the original value before nerf. They plan to add harvest spots to more fields later and in accordance, more rare materials which you can sell which will probably end up giving you more meseta than before.

Combine this with the current featured quest system rewards and daily COs, this will encourage people to play all the various fields and ARKS quests.

Gathering to encourage people to play more quests sounds like the lamest idea though.

Like nobody is actually "playing" them, just going to them.Yeah, I kinda feel the same way, unless quests have special gathering spots in boss rooms that only appear if you get a certain rank, people probably aren't even gonna bother killing most of the enemies, especially since a lot of maps don't have XH. Not to mention they're already encouraging people to play other quests via the daily orders.

I'm a little miffed that they're trying to make gathering into a source of generating money to be honest. I'd be fine with selling mats to other players, but if they thought TACOs were monotonous I don't see why gathering wouldn't end up being such even sooner.

I'm fine with DOs because they require a variety of things and not always the exact same stuff every day (they even added new ones). But unless gathering orders are going to be like that too, they'd get boring really fast.

I dont get why everyone wanted a different form of gathering since monster hunter did this the same way and it works perfectly.
In Monster Hunter you went to a Map and instead of killing you gather materials and return to village its the same as we will have here and if they did more quest types for gathering it would be bad because it would separate even further the playerbase and there is no need for that since Arks/ Free Quests are perfect since its all random generated anyways.
And of course you will have to clear the gathering spots of enemies you wont fish with a Rock Bear throwing rocks at you.

You might be interested in looking at the attacks name we got for Phantom Goddess, they seem to give clues about the location (REAL SPOILERS UNDER THAT LINE (for those uninterested :p))




Phantom Goddess: Name makes me think of a 12 person boss. Could be wrong. Interestingly, some of its attacks are named for world wonders :
PhantomGoddess:Punch
PhantomGoddess:Tail
PhantomGoddess:EyeBeam
PhantomGoddess:Eiffelpoke3
PhantomGoddess:SevenShot
PhantomGoddess:RouletteSpotlight
PhantomGoddess:RoulettePillarOfFire
PhantomGoddess:Pyramid
PhantomGoddess:kEiffelLightUpBlow
PhantomGoddess:kEiffelLightUpShot
PhantomGoddess:Arch
PhantomGoddess:Anger

On personnal thought, it got multiple attacks related to french monuments (Eiffel, Arch and possibly the Pyramid) so maybe we'll fight Goddess in Paris? but those attack are from a very early stage of that boss and more will be added in the future (like for Falz Apprentice Zea) so maybe it'll be the entire Earth?;-) Oh also, i noticed Phantom ennemies names in the data are actually what they'll be in game so, we can assume Phantom Goddess will litterally be and look like a goddess

EDIT : Looks like Raujinn's idea might be even more accurate because of [SPOILER]PhantomGoddess:RouletteSpotlight and PhantomGoddess:RoulettePillarOfFire which i couldn't relate to Paris

I already feel bored. It looks like something to waste time on for a strength upgrade, instead of actually being fun.

Thanks to Arks Mod Tool and crowded lobbies causing meshes to vanish, I noticed the game doesn't actually layer the 3d meshes on top of each other.
The parts you don't see are removed. So it's not surprising that the baggy shirt removes the base clothes and leaves only the shoes.
Also means there's not much of an excuse for characters having super huge hems floating around their belly.

Hahahaha. Instead of using the Craft scrapping selection menu, they added a way to define custom number of items you want to recycle for cubes?
That's so round-about. So I guess you have to count how many items you have before you go to recycle menu now.
Instead of, you know, just selecting the ones you want to scrap like the Crafting menu...

So some wieners last night were talking about teh Rappy egg being non tradable? Any truth to that or was that just people being confused because the cover art showed only PS4.It's a 10* egg, so, no, it's not not tradable.

People don't play the quests because... what's the point to play them after you complete them? Give us a ton 13 star weapons with level themed on them and people will play them.

For me the replay value of PSO1 was to find those red boxes from the drops and here we have a ton weapons that only want to make them excubes to exchange them for a drop boost to gete more excubes.

Yeah, Vegas is definitely the most likely place for a bunch of world wonders to be together. In fact, the boss could still be the Statue of Liberty like some people were hoping for a New York map.

Also Sega loves Vegas styled (http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/sonic/images/9/9d/960424_20100223_640screen060.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20110201001410) levels (http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/sonic/images/2/22/Sonic_heroes_pc_27.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20100518074756)

While Yamato is an iconic figure to Japan and anime it wasn't exactly a terror at sea. It saw very few fights and it was just as deadly to its own crew as it was to the enemy. Granted it took a ton to finally sink it but at it's time of existence it was the top tier Battleship. America pulled the old throw mass produced junk at it until it dies card.

You don't want to be part of a ship crew that has to fear for it's own life every single time the ship fires it's main batteries. Japan had plans to make an even bigger Battleship but realized other things were more important at the time and the A-150 was never finished.

But this is PSO2 so in this case it is just here because of it being an iconic figure to Japan.

Blah blah blah history

We decided to make a bigger example out of Nagato by using it as a nuclear test dummy after capturing it since it was involved in the attack on Pearl Harbor.

I dunno why anyone is bringing up realism here when the helicopters attack you by scraping their blades on the ground, the road rollers can do sick wheelies, and the tank has a flamethrower tactical nuke. I don't think anyone doubts that, if it was a normal WWII battle ship, there wouldn't even be a fight regardless of which one it was. :wacko:

I understand. I was just reading people trying to hype up Yamato so I wanted to note it is only an iconic figure and nothing more. My bad guys.

EDIT: Also cause I guess we were only hyping up Yamato to point out its cultural significance.

As far as skill rings go, there's apparently one that adds just guard frames to tech charging, and another that makes normal attacks with knuckles on the ground dash towards the target like Katana Combat (So much for Heartless Impact).

I really can't wait for them, though it's kind of silly that some of the effects like forward S-Roll or removing the dash from Katana Combat couldn't have been normal skills instead.

They have to release the fix as "content" so everyone will play longer to fix the mess themself :wacko:

I bet fishing & mining will be abandoned unless they give useful things.

And Franka's Cafe too, it seems they make an idea and go foward without improving it.

For example the Casino, no news about it and I have one million ideas and minigames for it, like Bowling or Shooter Gallery, sometimes I want to shoot things but I can't because my last booster has 20 minutes left from the last EQ and I don't want to wasted in a pointless quest, so you need to do something in the Lobby.

They're used to make the skill rings, so I doubt they'll fall out of relevance very quickly.

Depending on what kinds of buffs are available from the foods, that also is unlikely to ever become irrelevant.

I literally can't imagine what it's like for the design team to brainstorm ideas.

-Hmm... maybe fishing and mining could be fun? it could be like a mini game or something

-Oh yeah, fishing and mining sound fun. But lets not make the programmers work too hard so let's just make it a one button activity.

-And we can make it into another carrot-on-a-stick feature

-sounds great lets put it in

-maybe we can use this opportunity to use those empty side rooms in the shops area?

-no let's focus our art resources into making a new room for it too.

"People want to be able to recycle any number of cubes at once!"
"How about using the craft menu where you can select stuff you want to scrap?"
"Nah, that's boring. Anyone got any new ideas?"
"Let people enter the number of cubes they want to exchange for!"
"Brilliant!"

not defending the shitty UI but I definitely don't want a loading screen between me and the cube menu

not to mention you'd lose a block every time you moved to your room to break down stuff

I wouldn't really call Hellcats and Corsairs old junk for that time.

To bad the nose mounted 7.7's aren't modeled in those A6M5's. Not that they would actually do something against AIS, but it would've been a nice detail since they did model the exhaust pipes from the engine.

Wait, is this really happening?
We input the number on our own, and not "it's 9 cubes so no fast exchange for you" anymore? still kinda stupid that they don't use similar method as item desynth menu but it's still welcomed.

Huh?
Nobody said anything about actually having to go to your room.

Have you used the crafting scrap menu?
You can just select items up until around 15 or 20, and scrap them.
You don't have to have exactly 15 or 20, and you don't need to set "1" for every item. It's way faster and convenient.
That's been in the game for like, two years now?
But for some reason SEGA has never considered copy pasting that code to other things like the cube recycling.
Now, instead of that, they've coded a new option to set the exact number of items you want to turn into cubes.
You still have to set "1" for every item, and you still need to have the exact number you specified. It makes no sense!

Actually that mechanic was less than a year. Think it got implemented few weeks before PA crafting
