View Full Version : Cast: Late Night PSU: A player-run event I want to start (pl

One thing I love about MMORPGs are player-run events. They are almost non-existent on PSU. I feel everyone is looking for that next rare, that next reward, that next meseta deposit. It’s kind of a downer to see so much greed.

Well I want to start up a player-run event that goes a little after prime time on Friday. Like the topic says, “Late Night PSU”. I want to start the player-run event at 10:00 p.m. and have it end at midnight. Every Friday I will try to do this, and if I can’t make it, have someone else set it up for me. This event will take place on Universe 15, so hopefully it will attract more people to the Universe so you can find more diverse people and games. I want to see 2-3 stars next to Universe 15, that would be cool.

Now this is where you guys come in. I want people who are willing to do these things:

1. Be willing to give up 3000-5000 meseta every week.

2. Have an extra character slot (or your “luck” character slot, one slot that you grind with, synth with, etc. when you see one race/sex has 3 luck and then delete when the luck runs dry for another lucky race/sex combo)

3. Be willing to cut off ties with friends/teammates from 10p.m.-12a.m. on Friday. It’s okay to invite them to the event, but you get my drift.

For now those are the requirements. That first requirement may scare a few off, but considering I have 250k in my bank as a lvl 48, 3000-5000 meseta a week is nothing, and you lvl 50s should agree. I think all of us have that one character slot open for “luck” characters, so I think everyone can fill number 2.

This is just something I wanted to start up to liven up this game. Right now it is a boring grind, and preparing for something like this will be fun in my opinion. Anyways, my email is (made just for this venture) [email protected] Email me if you are interested. I’m hoping to find like 3-4 others who can help me come up with ideas, or help broaden out the player-run event so more than 5 people can participate. Some events will only hold a full team and me, so with more people we can have 20+ people in it having fun.

Email me if you want in, and I’ll email you back my first idea/scheduled event for December 1st at 10p.m.

Examples?

Casino: Three of us dealers at the tables at the juice bar.
Fun Runs: A team of 6 goes out with required ungrinded C rank weapons in a tough A rank atmosphere.
Story Events: My NPC and I (Lou) need help getting to the end of Linear Line so we could get married (sounds cheesy I know, you get the point. Clear out area to get something cool at the end).
Scavenger Hunts: Once 5 people find me, I let everyone join. They run around in an area collecting meseta. Some hiding spots hold nice materials/weapons/etc.
Find the Password: 4 people are spread across Universe 15 randomly, and each one gives out a number. Once you find the four numbers, randomly place them in order to try to enter my room, where the first one in gets a prize, and the password is changed so no one else gets in but that one player.

My question: Why would we be giving up 3000-5000 meseta?

Deja

Rewards. May not even reach 3000 meseta at first, since some events may be for lower levels. Like, for example, we run a casino at the Juice Bar, and the dealers hold 3000-5000. Stuff like that.

Sorry, but I've seen level 50s who were fairly poor (as in couldnt afford 3 star weapons). I'm level 43, and my current cash sum is around 30k.

I don't get it....what's the "event"?? From reading your post, it sounds like we have to show up with 5000 Meseta and a character slot with 3* luck....but WHY would I want to do this????

I may or may not require you to create characters for the event, but for some instances yes. Like the casino, we'll all be named Dealer, and one of us Cashier, etc. Don't you have a character slot open for when you wanna grind? You create a character who you saw has 3 luck and grind with it, then erase the character for another 3 luck the next day.

Way to go into such little detail and give like, one example of a casino.

Thread fails for lack of info.

Hm... i'm iffy on this whole idea primarily the purpose other than gathering people to gather and having them do events that don't involve any mission related activity. I mean chatting is fun and all but the idea seems a little too vague to catch on. Also will you be posting the idea here once you get updates instead of just to those that e-mailed you?

The casino i'm not sure that's even acceptable by Sega TOS, i mean so far they don't care but once updates start kicking in and user start comming back kind of uncertain if even that will continue.

Though don't get me wrong good idea getting people together though needs a more clearly defined purpose.

How the F are you going to run a Casino?? What, I walk up to you with my 5000, bet on red and you say, "Sorry dude, came up black...gimme your money!"

I still don't get what this "event" is, why I have to bring 5000 M and why I have to use a character with 3* luck.....what are we going to be doing??

Am I just ignorant of what these "events" are?? The only events I've heard of online are free and just require you to show up and have your pic taken....

You... realize there's a /card, /dice and /random chat option?

I'm not saying you need 3 luck, but you need an extra character slot. That's it. One character slot you aren't serious with.

And if this bombs I'm doing it myself.

Ahh....no, sorry, I didn't realize this. I did see some guys in the Gawik's shooting dice up, but I don't know how to make that happen on Xbox...do I just type /dice??

OK, that makes a LOT more sense now....a LOOOOTTTT more sense. Sorry.

That's alright JAFO, this is something new and different, and I'm asking for quite a lot (although not to me and shouldn't be to some high levels) to help me. I'm just hoping this player-run stuff will make others start up their own so in all, everyone online wins. PSU needs something like this, as right now it is a boring grind fest. Yes, once the update comes it will pick up, but I still think something like this will fit in.

I have a possible idea...

I know this may sound totally random but why not prior to the event have about 6 people clear out a bunch of C rank runs and hide present randomly everywhere and sorta have a type of easter egg hunt. I know this sounds slightly insane but could prove interesting.

Another suggestion could be a quiz game like Family Feud or ask various questions about PSU/PSO that aren't easily accessable via the internet and would require some hunting to get to them.

Aside from that i'm pretty blank on ideas. Is that the sorta thing your looking to do Deja?

My friend had this kind of idea for a cassino. She hasnt came on to actually start it yet. It's very similar to your cassino idea... She was thinking of starting lots of things that relates to real-world gambles.

I'm gonna give this one last bump, hoping that I get a few volunteers. Maybe people are too greedy that the 3000-5000 meseta a week is too much. Well for those that think that, maybe 50% of the player-run events won't require that amount, but maybe up to 1000. These events won't really be for the rewards, but mostly for challenge, fun, and something to do for two hours instead of the rinse, repeat type gameplay.

Hey, I don't have a free slot, but other than that this sounds fun.
Kindred is my main character, if you see me running around give me a card, and I'll try to show up

Dude? 5k a week? I'm Lv49 and that's 25% of my total bank account. My money runs low too often for such things.

I've decided to do this just solo for a couple of weeks, to gain some popularity, then hopefully branch out with more people. Expect an announcement soon for the Dec. 1st event.

It's gonna be small though, since it is just me, but there will be 5 lucky players.
