I'm at work and I was planning to play till 11am but I checked the pso2.jp site and noticed the change
Now I just get to sit here and play LoL until its quitting time and go home and wait for 5pm...

At least my Vita arrives today

[layn2321]

Is there a patch going through today? I pre-downloaded something the other day, wondering if we have someone new coming today or if it was just a really early pre-downloaded for the vita stuff. It was a big patch on the pre-downloader though

[Z-0]

Early pre-download for well... new stuff in general for the next month or so.

Now, for the actual update today, everything is listed here (apart from surprise bug fixes or whatnot they might add). To summarise:

- Item names are getting changed to be easier to read (more of a Japanese thing).
- Premium Block Space is being added.
- If you have Premium, Este tickets will last for an hour allowing you to test out changes.
- More than one Matter Board objective can be chosen (not sure if they specified how many you can choose)
- Hunter buffs (All weapons restore more PP, JA window is more generous for Swords and Lances, Gear builds faster for Swords and Lances)
- Something to do with Koffee's orders!
- Client Orders are getting buffed (from what I can tell, they're just changing level requirements for something -- either full EXP or the level of enemy you need to kill for the CO). For Hans, Revelle and Echo (although Echo's change is slightly different).

I'm terrible at this. \o/

WOAH, all hunter weapons will siphon more PP? God yes.

I'm glad they're addressing the shifting class issues. Whereas subclasses resolved PP issues for force spec (fo/te te/fo) and ranger spec (ra/gu gu/ra), it was not addressed for hunter spec at all (hu/fi fi/hu). Good to see them taking feedback instead of digging in. Now add a skill for fighter, or buff up fists and dagger PP siphoning and we're on to something here.

I like how alpha, beta, gamma, and delta became a, b, c, and d respectively lol.

so not changing attack speed but widening the JA windows a bit... I guess I can see why... (sometimes I miss that chance to JA using my PA too early... only to realize if say for an example I'm attacking in midair. I'm losing height when I make the JA most of the time. >_>)

I didn't remember gear filling up easier, but I was definitely thinking "man would be nice if my gear filled up faster..." earlier... Kind of a weak coincidence but yeah...

Well, fighter needs the longer JA window for knuckles way way more than hunter did, but they're on the right track so far.
