As probably everyone's seen, there's those other topics containing various doom and gloom predictions upon Ep3.
In an effort to NOT hijack the topics this one is here. I don't know if it should of went in 'cheaters' or not, but everyone who seems to want to talk about this particular subject seems to be on this forum. Also, it's not really all about cheating, but rather vitality and endurance of something people like.
Ok, what's the streight dope on this June Armageddon thing? Why June? That's like...far. If they have this 'kill everything' then why not just let it out now and be done with it. Or, is that an estimated "Project Dork-Doomsday" completion date?
Concern #2
Ok if Armageddon=instant ez card dupe...so what? You can only have up to 3 of anything in your deck. You can only have 8 spots worth of anything on the field. So lets SAY they bust out this code and invent themselves up...hmmm 20 Ill Gills. Well you can only feild one at a time. And it's not very likely these clowns will have the actual mental *strategy* to use them well enuff to beat anyone.
#3
If it's FSOD/RSOD whatever. We had that on DC and it was dammed annoying...but it didn't end PSO.
#4
Lvl 999 is the same way too. All that does is give phony prestige and up the likelyhood of you winning better cards after a fight. It also makes anyone who beats you probably REALLY happy because it'd probably give a jillion exp.
PSO is DAMMED hard to kill.
If you can say anything about this game, the people who are still here are more presistant then...well I can't think up a good analogy. But this game has been thru utter heck, and it's STILL being played.
-Look at episode 1 for DC. That server was down about every other day. It crashed more then a crash-test-dummy factory. When you could play, most likely it lagged too. Don't get me started on D/Cing off it.
-They butchered that thing up to no end and did the same for ver 2. People galloping about the place with no heads, NOLing (the same as fsodx really, you DIE is the result...if it sticks), running thru walls, inf. HP in BA mode, crashing whole ship/blocks, insane ATP so high people would look at monsters and they die of it. Killing people for wepdrop/appearing as Sonic/Rico/That hood guy/using Elenoa the banned mag...it goes on forever.
But it lived. There were people you could never BA and win against. Lobbies...you couldnt stand in them for 5 min w/o FSOD/RSOD. All that stuff and PSO lived. People still made friends, they still talked and enjoyed the place. It even found protectors in the hacking community, if you remember the RAcaseals whom no one controled, watching over the lobbies.
What can they do in June that hasn't already been done?
The only thing I can see is like...allowing people to routinly seriously break a rule in battle. Like summon more then 8 spots worth of stuff/be immune to all hits/inf dice/inf monsters. But that's got to be like impossible. Plus, ST is more 'on the watch' with this game then all the previous. It's likely that something would be done...
Still. Although I've got some faith in PSO's general difficulty to kill I am curious what they think they're gonna do, as well as this odd date setting that's going on.
