PSO

[Meyfei]

So i'm kinda skeptical about the changes... Simply looking for a yes or no answer.

We stuck with this one as the primary High Pop server?
Really wanted to get back into playing a bit and such, but want a Normal untouched server.

[DC_PLAYER]

No there are more around.
As for the "untouched", that may be a tad hard to find, probably it's best you grab the software and make your own server, that way you can have the same conditions, if you plan on playing with others then the servers available often have changes, it may be exp multipliers, different drop rates and so on.

[Dongra]

To my knowledge there are no more vanilla BB servers around, all of them have some kind of change, admittedly a lot of them positive such as common bank. I think the closest you can find to vanilla is the server that AlexCraig plays/played on while the BB server with the most changes and largest population would be Scht.

[Crazyleo]

And if you do decide to jump ship to that particular server; I to play on that server as well. If you see me online, give me a holler and I'll help you out.

[Dongra]

Honestly, I can get back into this game anytime so long as I have a consistent group to play with. I really despise the recent changes that Scht has made to the game but I can overlook them if I don't have to play with the random people there.

also I have to agree 100% with DC_PLAYER because running a private server take a lot of work and a lot programing and understanding the issue with bug problem. but that a risk your gonna have to face

[Dongra]

The thing is that this game doesn't do much for me without a population and that pretty much leaves Blue Burst as my option. I can play on the servers but I just don't agree with the changes they all make, particularly Scht's new weapons and the decision to remove quest rewards without an alternative way to get the items they removed.

[HeartBreak301]

At least the big one used to be more or less pure until the admin decided to let people who aren't admins make administrative decisions. I got a pretty good laugh at the ridiculous downspiral that occurred to try and keep people from flocking to PSO2.

On one hand it sucks to see a good game like PSO start to die, but I feel that the administators were only killing it faster by injecting content all over the place. The way I see it is if people are playing after 10 years they must be doing it for a reason, why mess it up?

At least I still have my gamecube for the occasional fabled splitscreen session.

I think I missed their attempt at keeping people around. Was it that new donation deal or something? Anyway, I completely agree with you that they killed it much quicker than expected. I honestly think the whole deal trying to prevent cheaters is the main problem since all their anti-cheating attempts screwed normal players more so than the cheaters. With a game this old and easy to exploit they should have dropped that whole deal years ago.

[HeartBreak301]

Yeah, they finally came out of the dark and openly started taking "donations" for items instead of keeping it under the table. Everybody knew about how crooked the admin was already anyway but now they're not blatantly stealing from people and banning people after said theft.

As for their attempt at keeping people around, they injected a sword with Spirit that rivals the power and range of Dark Flow and it just kept following that trend. And as someone pointed out earlier they disabled ALL quest rewards so anything that came from BPD or BPD2 is worth it's weight in gold now. I see people trading Master Ravens for S-ranks these days.

[Dongra]

I didn't know Rainbow was their attempt at keeping people around, and Master Ravens for S-ranks? I shouldn't have much trouble getting them then, but that's still no excuse for the actions they took.

[Meyfei]

Wow last time i went on, there was a crapton to hear about. I just want to play the way i played back in 2007. Collecting tickets, handing in for type-M's and That one Seabed's roulette that is fun. I don't care if people hack and dupe- PSO to me was to get weapons i'll never get offline and play with them to have fun and all.

Not to get into story-debates and all but- There wasn't anything as per story except "My daughter is missing and possibly dead please find out! Theres no reward but we'll waste 2hours of your time doing ruins and freeze on you during the credits :)" IF anything i enjoyed the Black Paper split subplots Killer Kireek or Episode 2's Seat of the heart cross-over.

So I primarily hunted and leveled and wanted to play in groups.

[Dongra]

As I said earlier, I can get back into the game anytime as it's still my favorite game. Just name when and where and I'll probably be on board.

[Meyfei]

I'll give it consideration consideration was considered while typing that rofl~

I tend to dick around with my inventory for like 30mins xD i'll download it and prepare and pop a time or you can pm me, i got some time to fill up since quitting pso2 ;x


OK i got everything working and i'm on. If anyone wishes to join me and Dongra sometime and group up just say so here and we can do something, maybe start a team if we all arn't in one or something? *shrugs* what ever happens~~

I'll play with you guys. I've been playing PSOBB on crapserv since PSO2 seems to be in a downward spiral of boringness. I just got to 50 on my HUmar, I also have a HUcas that's at 76, and two other chars not really worth mentioning. I've been hoping to find do some of Ep 2's Story quests. I'm on 6-4 and since it's timed it's a pain in the rear end.

[Dongra]

Meyfei is currently playing on MOD EDIT since MOD EDIT antihack.dll constantly closes his shit.

Is that server close to the original PSOBB then? Or is it like some of the others, but not like the big one?

[Crazyleo]

There are a few modifications done on the server. There's 2x XP and unlimited mag feeding. Plus there are some GM crafted equipment as well to replace what's considered trash rares. (for example; the 5th anniversary double saber has been changed into what we call Celes Doubles. It has a Charge special)

However; we don't have a working C-Mode; so we're working on a way to get S-Rank weapons without the use of C-Mode. If you have a S-Rank; you can transfer that over (read the forums for the details)

PM me if you want further details.

[Dongra]

They certainly do have changes, a lot that I would call game breaking. It's a shame there isn't a way to get cmode working there either as I think it's a big part of the game.

[Dongra]

He said they are working on a way to get S-ranks outside of cmode. So far it doesn't sound like they have found a way to implement it as a drop or obtainable otherwise.

[Meyfei]

go on the main serv with a group of Cmoder's and obtain an S-rank, then request the characters transferred with proof of legitimately obtained S-ranks and they may consider it. refer to the character transfer guide in the forum. It'll explain in detail.

That generally is what i gathered when i read it. I never bothered doing a transfer, sounds like a hassle since i have more proof pics lol.

btw Meyfei I just register with them so Im lv.1 atm XD.

[Meyfei]

I've been busy lately so i haven't been online on PSO. But if i do get back on i'll drop you a PM :D
I think the transfer is from Mr.Antihackserver to them.
