Lets get xfire to support PSU. If we all mention wanting it supported, it may make it in. For some stupid reason they didnt support PSOBB, we cant have that happen again.

Haha, a few weeks ago I sent in a letter telling them to support Blue Burst and PSU. Small world ;P...

I don't see it happening unless SoA deliberately allows it. The moment any process refers to the PSU window your game will crash.

I already have xfire. If you want, you guys can add me ( skyepic ) to your friends list.

It can still track how long you've had the game open for without having to access it.

Actually, if you look in there "games supported" section it lists PSU as having in-game chat.

I haven't tested it yet, since I have been playing it windowed because I was unaware(They never patched the client since oct 12th, how do they sneak in PSU support?) and the servers are down now.

I do know that it does not track the game in your profile... yet.

The actual config of xfire doesn't list PSU yet.

... What the hell is xfire? I scanned over the FAQ for that website, but, the device seems completely ... well, useless.

It's a gaming instant messenger. It tracks your gametime with a lot of games. Take my profile for example;
http://www.xfire.com/profile/jubeisaotome/

Also, it allows you to message other users from WITHIN a fullscreen game without having to alt + tab, which would be awesome for PSU, seeing as it crashes on alt+tab. It allows you to join a lot of games from a friends message window too, which is awesome for FPS and RTS games.

It's really useful.
