View Full Version : Unusual Reference To Potentially PvP

This just might be a typo of theirs, but they make an obscure reference to PvP in PSU here:

http://www.psusega.blogspot.com/

"There are three main basic policies in the battle in PSU, the first being the battle scenes. Fighting has become truly eye-catching to the extent that you can recognize it at a glance compared with PSO.

You can now also engage a player or AI opponent in combat in various ways:"

Personally, I am not crazy about online PvP communities but this is a bit of a surprise if they decided to sneak this in with little fan fare (or perhaps they've already worked up PvP in the next expansion in Japan already). Or it could be a typo like I said before.

Thoughts on this?

Enage as in engage an NPC perhaps.

*edit* Hence you underline player, totally missed that. /double shrug

I agree.

But then it goes on to say 'In combat'

Not to sure.

I would love to see a battle mode in PSU. I am not like super into pvp, but I like doing it for fun every once and a while. The ability to "take it or leave it" in PSO made it a lot of fun. You could spend half your PSO time doing it over and over, improving your records and reputation, or you could simply not play it and no one would think less of you.

In other words, this topic is pretty good, but it needs more cowbell, baby.

I think if they do add it - it shouldn't be pointless like it was in PSO. You should get Meseta or Dimates or something depending on the level you participate.

I was hoping they would add PvP... let's all hope now it isn't a rumor.

Oh, just realized that there will be the crazy players out there that spend hours figuring out equations so that they can have a PvP advantage. Great. More "I am t3h 1337 j00 r t3h sux0rz!" Grrr...

Looks like I'm not the only people who noticed this statement.....

This could be a preclude to Battle mode, but again, it's not official till Sonic Team or Sega comes directly out to say it or not.

well actually IN-game (atleast story mode) you did end up fighting generic NPC from time to time, in small groups. Wither badits or Casts. cept they all had the one ability i wish we had:

Side-step/dodge roll.

Yeah, but those guys would be considered NPC, or Non Player characters. They specifically said players.

I'd love to add more cowbells but it would wake my poor cow I'm afraid. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_cowsleep.gif

Lovejuice made a topic a while back about the blog when it was first posted. A few people caught that and thought it was odd and could have hinted at PvP of some sort. If you want to look at the topic and what we thought you can look at the link below.
