New years decorations

Also, players can write messages and have them broadcasted to everyone using the scrolling text that you sometimes see at the top of the screen.

Nah, there's no new event. This is why I haven't posted anything about it. All it is, are New Years' lobby themes. Nothing special, just liek the Autumn lobby themes. No new content, but that's fine, since it was stated that the staff are taking a holiday for a few days.

I wouldn't be surprised if NA didn't get this portion.

The only thing that even amounts to an event is Hal's New Years' Radio. On the 31st and the 1st, all players who submitted messages for broadcast, will have them broadcasted on universes 21-30. Think of them as in-game shouts.

Deadline for the messages was last week.

Other than that, all we get are New Years' Lobby themes for 11 days.

We aren't that far away from New Year.

Neudaiz finally has a new theme, unlike Xmas.

Nobody expected Christmas when we got it, so maybe New Years will be the same way? Not on any official paper work, but i'll sneak into one of the weekly maintenences?

So tell me, how do you plan to convert yourself into computer code and sneak into the weekly maintenance? http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

I never forsee NA getting all the JP events simply because a number of them aren't really applicable or known to the general NA audience. I'm sure we'll get Valentine's day, but I've doubts about White day (because, show of hands, who here actually /knows/ what White day is?)

I've still got my fingers crossed, however, in hopes of some kind of matsuri event in summer. Rappies in happi coats dropping some kind of fireworks..?!

at first i thaught it was a great idea to subscribe to this game, so mutch that i did sign for 6 month only to witness sega is a racist companie... the more i see how they do buisness the more disgusted i am

so what u say is that its normal that japan get more stuff than us because they have more ppl on their server?!!!

Wouldn't it be wiser to wait until Friday before we start the weekly witch hunt? Just saying.

C4
Dec 28, 2006, 04:08 PM
maybe ur right, but i still think we need more updates, why more updates? caus im a freaking rare hunter and i want it all... ALL OF IT!!!

Dec 28, 2006, 05:25 PM
ok u are clearly missinformed on this one nukei, we get our slower than in japan

No. Faster. Japan's PSU has been out longer that's why they have more, but ours came sooner to our release date.

Dec 28, 2006, 05:59 PM
sight... im not gonna argue about this but u can just look at the time line of the updates of japan and look at ours... the fact says it all

DarkAeon
Dec 28, 2006, 06:01 PM
Japan's PSU came out BEFORE OURS. Now factor that into your little timeline and THERE you go.

Some cheesy decorations isn't an "event". If this is what Sega's idea of events are...... http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif In FFXI we'd have little quests to do, monsters to kill, and special armor/weapons/items (santa suits, pumpkin heads, fireworks etc) to get and wear around. They should make it a little more involving like that. We're not really missing out by not getting it since it's just decorations..

hmm the total of six Xmas trees I got from hunting Rappy Noels and killing them during the Christmas event wasn't just my imagination.

Major holidays/special days will usually have new room decoration added, special lobby/city decorations and may or may not have holiday themed Rappies (ala) PSO that drop special items. All of whioch I think is very *cool* IMO.

Maybe later special holiday missions may be added *later* like with PSO. Maybe the expansion will have them.

New Years on JP servers have nice looking Japanese style decorations which IMO are cool looking. And I don't thinl ther're "cheesy." They look better the plain old palm trees and bushes, etc that are usuallly there.

The JP New Years event was broadcasting shout-out messages that people sent into ST and then broadcasted over "Hal's New Year Radio" it was a fun liltte thing to do IMO.

Would of been neat if US servers had it but it not that bad that we didn't have it. Though the lobby/city decorations are nice IMO. I do hope we get the snow time.Snowman lobby/city themes as they look much nicer than the typical look of things. IMO.
