Well then.
its 2014 and people are using windows XP?
it's not about running or not, it's just, they won't give a fuck after the official microsoft support for XP dies off which is april 2014; game will prolly work just like it works now, can't really see them fucking it over so it would stop working
This is the same company who made a launcher that deleted files from another game. It wouldn't surprise me if they fucked it up.
To be honest, there's no real reason why you should still be using Windows XP in 2014 so I can understand why they aren't willing to support it anymore.
Just upgrade to 7. (or 8... although I heard from people that OS sucks; I never used it, though.)
Some people can't afford anything better than XP. Sucks for them.
they can always crack windows 7 if there desperate
Personally I would love to run to xp. Newer Microsoft operating systems have so much overhead which bogs down the system.
This is the main reason I've been putting off upgrading for so long. I need to upgrade my whole computer if I want to use windows 7 smoothly.Quote:

it's really worth trying out, it might run slow at first before you get all the updates for windows (it will hog the drive/cpu for the time it does that, at least it did for me) but after that you get top notch experience
I actually decided to buckle down and install it on my old hard drive since I never use the damn thing anyway. Worse case scenario I can just switch back.Quote:

The XP was a wonderful OS: it was finally an stable OS, one that didn't BSOD for every little mistake(like opening the CD tray while running, looking at you Win98 ). Windows 7 is even better. It does a far better job at handling your PC resources than XP as well.
But yeah, it's a sticky situation if you can't afford a new computer for Windows 7(or 8.1). I've been there, but trust me, once you manage to do it, you'll enjoy a much better experience overall.
*Cought Cought* Windows Loader *Cought Cought* The Pirate Bay *Cought Cought* and having fun. I just hope Sega will support more android device for PSO2es, if they don't make it compatible, i will spoofer my Tenderloin and Skyrocket into a Nexus 5 and 7 and pls support cyanogenmod and root for my android system. My tenderloin was a miracle to support android when it was not by default but a shipping error from HP. wwwwwwwww
...can I watch?Quote:

Nah not Couto he is about to be rich soon lmfaoQuote:

I personally I like Windows XP, but if I could I would go all the way back to windows 2000. That was definitely the best Windows OS ever.
What does Aero do exactly? I forgot o.o
It simply a theme with more value for putting color, transparency, preview effect, etc. And it eat almost all the GPU for the slow computer. ^^Quote:

Windows XP Support Ends April 4th, 2014
Microsoft is shutting down support for Windows XP on April 4th, 2014. In accordance with this event, Phantasy Star Online 2 will also terminate support for Windows XP on the same date.
Would i need to switch to Windows 7 then?
Itīs possible to play it, but you have to know that Microsoft wonīt support it any longer. You have an old OS and it will be open for viruses, trojans and this stuff.
Wait for the patch and see if the game works. if not there will be a solution ;-)
Alright, thanks.
So many early posts already cover my exact feelings:

There are still lots of annoying simple issues that drive me nuts.
File sorting constantly changing itself against my configured settings, for example. Was never a problem in 98 or XP.
I'd have stayed on XP if it supported newer hardware.
Same with when I upgraded from 98 to XP. I don't care about fancy visuals.
I just want to be able to do what I want, without sacrificing effiency and functionality.
All operating systems should fundamentally follow those guidelines.
Anyway, I'd like to remind people that some games already don't officially support XP or 32-bit system but still run with minor or even no modifications.
It's a common problem that when something gets updated, they always add a lot of pointless shit.
It forgets its original purpose, stops being good at what it specializes at, and tries to be good at everything.
In other words, it becomes bloatware.
Why? Because everyone's a greedy shit.
They always try to expand into other markets.
I donīt get why you guys hate Windows 7. Itīs not a bad system and works really good. I mean Windows XP is 13 years old!! Why would someone use a system this old? I mean Windows Vista is bad and Windows 8 too, but Windows 7 is a great and stable OS.
edit: If you want an old sstem, then you can change to Windows 98 or even better Windows ME *sarcasm*
You don't get it because you obviously don't extensively use PCs for work.
Windows 7 is way better than Vista and 8, but it's still not as efficient as XP or 98.
You can't change to 98 or ME because they don't support new hardware.
This is just another example of people assuming that if they don't have a problem then nobody else can possibly have a problem.
Humanity won't be going anywhere until they can grow out of such simplistic and immature social mentality issues.
Actually I work with Windows 7. I am programming a game with friends of me and Iīm using my computer with Sony Vegas and Adobe Creative Cloud.
BTW. i think itīs stupid to hate a OS just because you donīt know how to use it. Windows 7 made many things better than XP (UAC, 64-Bit, Super Fetch and Bit Locker)
If you have problems with your computer and think itīs windows 7. I learned in my education to search the problem in front of the computer.
i think 7 and 8.1 are pretty much on the same stage, theyre just different.
because disabling aero is to fucking hard. also when its turned on and off its a mere 200 point diferent in the benchmark.
the impact of aero depends on the system.
i usually use the basic theme on windows 8 altho i dont need to.
and have most visual effecs tof since they anoy me. "oh wait a bit more for the prety animation derp"
