This new is long overdue. Been waiting for ages to play this game and now I will finally get my change to return to PSO.
Just revived my account here after hearing the news. So, anyone care to let me know what to expect compared to PSO and PSU? Lol
*After 11 years lol*
Except this almost never happened because you would have seen over the years with rage threads about being blocked, only those who got caught cheating trying to make up sob stories were trying to get around the block. Gaijins didnt really have anything to fear either
I still wanna know if content will be up to date or not either way staying JP servers in case they pull the PSU situation sometime down the line
One of the reasons I'm excited for this is because I really couldnt be assed to jump through hoops to get a PSO2 account on JP when it first came out, so when I finally did alot of the earlier episodes werent available on the server to play which kinda took me out of it. I would think they have to open up all episodes in this localization which is a major plus for me.
US/EU PS2/PC:
Mortalis - Lvl 150 Masterforce.
Dies Irae - Lvl 136 Gunmaster.
JP:
Exitium - Lvl 122 Gunmaster.
Sudden realization:
Halo collab anyone?
Do you have ANY bug in PSO2? Are you creating yet another thread about how you can't take screenshots, your game crashes, or textures are missing AGAIN? Do you NOT search the forum before asking? Then the L.A.W. FIX is for YOU!
It's EASY! Just go: Tweaker -> [!] button -> Other tasks -> Enable Large Address Aware, and you're DONE! Just remember to do it EVERY UPDATE!
They mentioned it will release with all content in the post-announcement discussion. I assume that means the game will be up to date with Japan when it launches. It sounds bad since the game is so deep in it's life span, but I'm sure they will fully support the game (otherwise it is a big waste of time for all parties involved).
The PC version can run pretty well on my garbage 2011 MBP with Windows so I'd suggest trying it out. I briefly played it a couple years ago and it is much more complex than PSU. There is a skill tree which adds to the min-maxing for those into that sort of thing. I played as a gunner and they have removed some of the old weapons and added in way more skills. So no more shotgun, but the rifle is very versatile and there was photon art for it that mimicked the PSU shotgun. I believe there was a skill with bullet penetration that mimicked the lasers from PSU.
There is just way more to do in PSO2. The casino is improved. Upgrading weapons is improved. The main lobby isn't as good as PSU imo. With PSO2, the missions are consolidated to one area (just got to talk to the lady at the counter).
The loot drops at the end were different. It might have been like that in PSO, but there aren't a ton of boxes like there was in PSU. You break the crystal/orb and everything just drops from it. The game play is more action-oriented as well (which is a welcome change imo). PSU felt very simple in terms of combat.

I do kinda find it humorous that in Japan its on PC/PS4 and in the West it's on PC/Xbox.
