The Official PSO: Blue Burst Discussion Topic

[Zinger314]

Because I don't see a fourm for BB...I guess I'll just make a topic here.

With the arrival of the new announcement...what are your hopes about it? I can't wait for it!

Problem is...the announcement had the prices listed in yen. Does that mean it's JPN only?

Also...if it does come stateside, I'll write a few things about it...http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

[Starman]

I'm sure we will find out soon enough. But I do hope its available in both US, and Europe.

[PJ]

Look at mood. That's all I have to say -_-

(Oh, and... what are the odds it's getting out here? 0.0000001%... yeah, it'll be released the same year as Plus XP)

[kazuma56]

Yea, it's JPN only, but by looking at the drawing of the new stage, it looks like some sort of boss battle only, where you walk around in a huge circle like Falz and Olga battles.... as long as that new "enemy" or "boss" doesn't drop anything exclusive to BB, I could careless about the new upgrade.... even though I still love to see it.

[Xero_Silvera]

Well i hope it hits stateside/euro... I mean with server side saving, i can finally play online and not worry bout hacks & dupes.. plus scince its a PC version, theyll probly be updated / patching it and new quests alot.. along with new items. Hopefully that drawing and monster isnt just a boss, i hope its an entire new episode... but a new area only would be alright too.. Its all really exciting to me.
-xero

[Sef]

Haha, if I ever play, I'm going to always call that monster a Moblin.

[Para]

I believe its going to be a whole new area like Temple, Forest or something.... Probably a lot more innovative than the old levels. That one new monster is probably only 1 of many new monsters to come.

[rena-ko]

if it works like the previous PC version of PSO (v2), then you can import it and play it online on the JP servers. its not that you have to get a console imported or modded this time, so for hardcore people it doesnt really matter if it gets a domestic release or not.

this however has to be tested first.

i personally would bet on: "it wont get released state side/in europe".

[Armok]

Those are things thus far the game itself may have many other suprises. Originally ppol though only a few of the 9 star weopons would be altered to look different but they all where. its still all rumor. all that is know it that there should be some new stuff to get stuck into. Hopes for a del/toy rappy foe.

[Dhylec]

hm.. these new additions of areas & foes will definitely draw a number of players back into it
language won't be too much of a problem once the hardcore gamer inside wanna play =D

An annoying kid at my school (Who thinks my friend is he's, he could care less about me which suits me fine) doesn't own any consoles and was wandering if PSO is for the PC, now my question is will this game connect with the PSOGCN servers cause if it does I'm going to get my friend to tell him to get this and go to Vega!!!

It will not connect to the GC servers.

[Arislan]

Before anyone asks what the writing is on the Moblin enemy design (nice name. ^_^) it says "back" and "side", jsut labelling the views of the enemy.

DANG!!!
FYI I'm new to this system so if the quote didn't look right I'm sorry...

[VioletSkye]

While reding through the official PSO BB site (using babelfish of course lol) it mentions something about not being compatible with the DC, GC or X Box versions, which makes sense considering the changes they made for the pc version.

[Uncle_bob]

The area looks more like a "gladiator" area. Uncle's theory is that the poor hunters come here and just fight endless amounts of monsters...or it's just the beginning of the stage and hunters go down the ladders, heh.

[Aunt_Betty]

Do you think other consules will get that stage? It seems a lttle unfair to us. However I doubt they will upload it.

[VioletSkye]

no we can't get that stage. Every stage in the game is already on the disk (even the Tower levels.) There isn't enough memory to hold all the info that would be required to download an entire new area which all new graphics, new enemy models, new textures, new sounds etc. It just simply can't/won't happen. It would be "possible" for XBox users, but I wouldn't hold your breath.

A "v2" for Ep1&2 would be nice. :|

[Nai_Calus]

Ah, new area/monsters. Definately not going to see a US release. -_-

Agreed.

So how are we supposed to get the free demo and get the story out of this? http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Although, the only thing I hope is bthat we finally get a second machine boss -_-

[Stan64]

I have been excited about the game since they stated it will have server side savings. It even gets better and better. I bought a computer two weeks before the beta openings but it was only open to JP residents. =(

My computer is way over their recommended system. Even with a DirectX, Force Feedback controller (a gc controller with a adaptor). ^__^

I'm still waiting though and this game is going to rock. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif Someway or another I will play it. I must. The day of no cheating on PSO is a bless. And even broomop says he wan't it cheat free. ^____^

*dreams on small pink clouds*

Eh? WTF? Broomop? Not cheating?! ITS THE APOCOLYPSE!

but seriously, someone will at least have to look through the data to see those new enemies' Drops/drop rates. Do you agree?

[Getintothegame]

This new stage makes me think:

How will it fit in the storyline?

I can't see a Episode 2 one and a half, with only one stage added. :/

[Para]

My speculations on this.

First of all I believe this new map//area will be in Episode I time. Because that you encounter this hole during Ruins, that you also meet Momoka in Episode I behind a desk in the Principal office, it may be that this is an Episode I side quest area with jobs from the government to expand investigations of the explosion.

The map also looks like that you will be exploring it vertically rather than on a flat surface like before... Maybe you will be going in circles down to the bottom of the explosion where you meet the boss (or possibly upwards)? Maybe you enter this new area through the Ruins?

The monsters themselves look like pre arlans, merlans and delbiters...
but then again that would defeat the idea of Diminenians as being arlans, merlans and del d.

[Stan64]

Momoka is in the lab in episode 2 also. Can't find the image right now. But I have one on my HDD.

Anyway. I wan't the game badly. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif And I agree about the new area being in Episode 1. I hope the story gets better. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

*installs support for asian languages in xp*

[Kurosawa]

And of course, once again US and EU gets screwed.

ST sucks. Looks like they may finally get a PSO right with server-side saves and a new stage but we never get it.

Screw ST. SquareEnix owns them totally.

[Rain_1]

ERm.. people... hold your horses.. the game will be avaliable for download... FOR FREE... you'll only have to pay for the monthly fee (1200 yen for a one month thing, 1000 yen for auto renewal monthly)...

You can just download it, pay using your international CC and play it away.

On may 21st, you'll be able to download it... and play online until you're level 20...

I don't see why you're all so pissed about it not coming down to this part of the globe... (like you wouldn't be able to import it anyways, if it was needed).

I'm just SO GLAD it has server-side saving. I hope that really stops cheating. Even tho i don't really know, since on pso ver2 for pc you could mess around with the .exe and get rare drops online. once i was playing around with a noclip .exe (as i always wanted to go to the city ruins you can see through the window on ruins), and a belra dropped a hildelbear's head...

But i hope that psobb will be cheat-free... and i will obviously support it.

[AndyPandy]

Dont forget, technically they can now add whole new levels and monsters and weapons easily. This is the advantage on server-side.

A game doesn't have to be run server side in order to add new content. In fact it makes no difference at all. The new level will undoubtedly be included in the download. Any new content will be available through further downloads. They aren't going to try and stream all of that new info lol. The real advantage is not that its server side, but thats its PC and thus has access to harddrive space (like XBox.) The true advantge is that it will be much harder to cheat. Cheating will most likely be kept to packet editting which will be beyond the scope of what most players are able to do.

[Para]

The thing is that having it on the PC enables it easier to update content unlike the GC.

XBOX was given up (imo) because of its security flaws.

People I know have said the new Phantasy Star ONline Blue Burst is protected fairly well.

Yes your right, I suppose what i was trying to say is new levels would be impossible on Gamecube.

I dont think you are right. After all, PSOX could have had server-side saving and new content download as it has a hard disc drive.

Probably the same reason why Billy Hatcher got passed as a good idea.

[rena-ko]

why not xbox?
nobody buys it in japan. thats why.


besides this, server side saving doesnt prevent duping and all the stuff by default.
well, lets see, ST cares quite a lot about ep3. if they can port that over to BB, it will turn out to be a nice, clean game.

lets hope they learned their lesson after 7 versions of this game.

[Sharkyland]

*sigh* I wish it would come here to the US or Europe though I hope the only thing is that there isn't a lot of server maintenance as well as enough money to pay for these types of things.

[Rain_1]

Well, that's true, but server-side only means there's no offline. So everything has to be done on sega servers, making, therically, everything watched by sega. Doesn't make it impossible, but surely makes everything harder.

I hope they don't port ep3.. because cards games plain suck.. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

Focus on psobb for the almighty.. I;m only sure of one thing: i'm signing up as soon as it's avaliable, so i can enjoy the a few first months of hack-free playing.

ah, i meant if they can port their care over to BB, not the cardgame itself.

[Para]

Actually porting episode III to the PC would make the ultimate pso combination for pso fans... a trilogy for pc http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

As for hacking, it is true that it is still possible to dupe and etc. Remember Diablo II? They have closed bnet, they run it server side.

Another thing that worries me is the lag... now that it is server side, the lag system might be changed... but then again I might be wrong.

True, but nobody really buys into Gamecube much anymore either. PS2 is the biggest console in Japan.

I myself really want that game. From what im reading its going to be japan only? or someone said it will be realesed in the US eventually well I sure hope so...I read that theres going to be a demo well does anyone know what magazine that demo will be in or how to get my hands on it?

The magazine will most likely be a JP gaming magazine, that you won't find in the States except in import shops. You can also download the game (which is what I will be doing) so it shouldn't be a problem unless you have a slow dialup connection (which I like to refer to as the Devil lol.) In that case, I doubt your gaming experience will be very good anyway since on the official BB site it mentions a recommended line speed of at least 256kbps. Dialup users may want to pass on this one.

[MakoSOLDIER]

You know how the beta ran on jp operating systems ONLY. Will that also aply to the free download on may 21st?

[Rain_1]

It's not coming out anywhere.
Well, actually it is, but it's a special version with limited box and etc on japan, but it's the same game.

PSO is now like ragnarok online.. That game didn't come out in any countries, yet, everybody worldwide is playing it.

the game is FREE for you to download. But you have to pay a monthly fee to actually play the game. So it doesn't really matter where are you from, as long as you have a international credit card.

Yes, the release is directed to asian market, but pretty much anybody can play (specially since pso has such a variety of languages, which would be dumb not to add it, since the script is already all there), just like any mmorpg out there. This new format is very accepted in asia (where do you think all those mmorpgs come from?) and, in my opinion, it was a VERY smart move from sega to do it that way.

So does the japanese ver2, but i used to play it every single day.. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif
And still do.. but shhhh, we're not supposed to talk about that.

Besides, doesn't WinXP with japanese support solves that problem? As i see it, it's not ENFORCED to be a JP OS... it's just that windows had problems running JP Software on non-jp versions. But that's fixed in WinXP, afaik.

[Getintothegame]

It just needs JP language support, but even if you don't have that, it will still set up.

A correction. The game is free to download AND play. The limitation is you can only level up to level 20. After that you can't gain anymore levels.

[Rain_1]

Well.. yeah.. but.. where's the fun in that? http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

[punkasssss]

what do you use to control your character? I haven't really shopped around any, but I guess there are probably controlers similar to the console ones for use with pc's. I guess that would be the way to go?

[Shrike]

I think it could be a whole new level where the four legged creature is the boss. The other creature is the same but with three variations, with the weakest one being the one with the brown face. The middle strength variation would be the red-faced one because it has a giant horn on its head. Finally the third and strongest variation would be the purple-faced one because it has two giant horns, one on each shoulder. Maybe there will be some more monsters released soon...

[Para]

Doesn't look like a boss to me... more like a del biter variation... besides we already got a boss similar to your idea... gal gryphon and the three dragon bros.

[Rain_1]

Hi there...

apparently, sega made a update to the Blue Burst Beta servers/clients today...

you can read more about it here: http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/urltrurl?lp=ja_en&url=http://psobb.jp/info/verup_03.html

it's not useful information about the history of the game or anything.. BUT, you can see the changes/bugs corrections and controlling of the game... a nice update, if you ask me..

I lost the link now, but there's even a event for pso bb beta players.. deppending on your level and time played (apparently), they will give you a special item.... hope they keep it like that once the full version comes out...

Nope. It's already been confirmed that even the beta testers will have to start from scratch once the final version is released to the public. No favoritism on the PSO

here: http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/urltrurl?lp=ja_en&url=http%3a%2f%2fpsobb.jp%2finfo%2fevent_02.html

Since the beta is still happening until the 12st of may, they?holding a special golden something event inside the beta ships.. dpending on your level, you might get a pso special item, on the beta ships... to play with it on the beta ships...

that's what i understood from the above news bit anyway...

They took that image from an artbook. It's one of the artbooks I own. Front side it has all the male characters with Rico in the back. On the back side, it has all the female characters with Flowen in the back. Let me find you a picture. The poses are almost all the same but its reversed.

[Satsuma]

I really really really REALLY hope it hits US shores. It'll be a HUGE hit. Let's hope ST realizes how much possibility they have for a PC version in america. It'll appeal to more people because of better security and less cost. It will cost less because you wont neccisarily have to buy any console if you want to play it or, expecially for sux-box, no sux-box live type of fee. So, only the hunter liscense fee would be there. 1 monthly fee is much better than 2. Overall, I'm super for PSOBB hitting america. Since I refuse to play PSO on a console, if I don't get PSOBB, well, I don't play PSO.

So, only the hunter liscense fee would be there. 1 monthly fee is much better than 2. Overall, I'm super for PSOBB hitting america. Since I refuse to play PSO on a console, if I don't get PSOBB, well, I don't play PSO.



Better security? IMO it was because of us that the old pso pc was so hacked so badly.

Hmmm...Seems like the level requirements have changed. It looks like now you need to be level 30 to get to Hard, and level 60 to get to Very Hard. Well, that's from what I've tried to read on the site http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

...And the keys, for anyone that is remotely interested.

The new episode which favorable comment it has received not only joining, the various new elements just of Windows edition such as improvement of the Advanced Capability begin the server saving system team system which does not choose play location & the new character graphic strengthening operativity which PSO BB are added to previous production Windows edition PSO, even in multi type editions.

Lol bablefish makes it like PSO BB is episode 1.5 and 2.5 or something.

where did you read about this lvl requirement change??

if its in place.. i wonder if it affects the difficulty of the monsters?

I think they're probably meaning the "certain condition" is having 10,000 meseta on you, but that's just in my opinion.

Not sure if this has been answered before, or if anyone actually knows, but will PSOBB even have an English mode? Let's hope so, cuz I would be really dissapointed otherwise ... not sure if I would still play though ;P

Irene looks different like whoa, but Tyrell looks about the same... Does this mean Irene will be used in a quest as a player-accompanying NPC? (Much like Elly's new Ep1&2 look... She sticks out like a sore thumb because she's detailed like a PC as opposed to the far less defined look of other NPCs)

Ok guys.. a new pso express has been out and left me with more questions than aswers.. since i suck for broken englishness (or jap for that matter), i'll post the link here so you experts on the matter can read and discuss...

http://rain.00.free.fr/closed_beta/

from what i figured out, the 21st release will actually be a open beta?

please, enlighten me!

[Malkavian]

>.>

I only see a port changing some features suited for console gaming to PC. And maybe a change in content about 1%?

In DC ver2 was a big expansion because previous V1 was kinda limited. But now Episode 1&2 is astonshingly big. Some additions doesn't mean much anymore.

And I have my doubts about hard drive meaning bigger updates and new stuff than what we had in DC&GC. Being able is 1 step but there is still a path to walk for make new items, changes, areas a reality.
Look Xbox example, there are some games with extra maps and areas but they don't match the previously made in disc. Like they have less effort or could be made by map editors or not much different from new maps we get in DC&GC. We can't have new textures and graphics but yes new maps.

[Mer]

I know what you mean Makavian.My sentiments exactly.The maps are different.

[Para]

maybe more map variations would be nice.
Anyways it looks like the download date MIGHT be changed because of this new beta phase. I think the download is postphoned till early June which really sucks for us people that are not living in Japan unless you know a friend in Japan who will get the game and then upload it and blah blah blah

[Cheeky]

I was wondering what "beta" the PSO Express newsletter was refering to..oh well, if its delayed, that gives me more time to scrounge up some cash for a new sound card.

PSO: BB Open Beta?

Translation (http://babel.altavista.com/babelfish/trurl_pagecontent?lp=ja_en&url=http://psobb.jp/info/openbeta.html)

[slickochet]

a stupid question i know to which the answer will more than likely be no, but anyway:

think there will be any way to port your character data over fromthe gc version so not as to have to start all over from the start again at lv 1 with nothing?

[Cheeky]

Negative, this a brand new experience for everyone. Even those who beta tested have to remove the beta before playing the whole thing. All this talk about PSO 2(and it is)has really made me anxious to get started on BB! I'll see you guys on there next friday I hope. Look for a Hucaseal named vellocet!

[slickochet]

aww hot buttered lugnuts. starting from the start again sucks ass

If a message comes up, it's because you're using babelfish. Make your way to the registration page without babelfish, using cut and paste translations if you have to, then enter your email in the proper site. It should work then. Well, that's what happened with me anyway http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif If you check the news discussion topic there's more info on signing up.

To use njstar properly, choose the language when prompted to(japanese), then open up Word or Notepad. Within the small taskbar that is opened while njstar is in use, type in the word or phrase desired, you will see the translation next to the word you typed. Then just click on the translation and it will pop up on the Word or Notepad page. Next, just copy and paste into the appropriate area until the whole form is filled out. Note: when prompted to fill in katakana, use the second translation(second from the word(s) you typed). Also for those lookin for a mock address to use, just copy paste the example given(lol) because it certainly works. Also for entering chinese, just choose chinese as the language of choice in njstar. For phone numbers, just do a google search for japansese phone numbers. Hope this helps.

[Para]

The phone number doesnt matter I believe.

[StryderPSO]

will someone please post a tutorial on how to register for beta..,

[Venus]

Well it would seem that I have put everything correctly, but still getting error messages. Anyone else have idea etc.?? Wish I could read those error messages....

- BOO

[Saffran]

is it the error 0006? it means you're not using the right input method for that area.

Incidentally, in your adress, you must start with a real japanese department. I input tokyo-to then "created" a japanese adress (well, they can look a long time for the "trier district" of Tokyo...). Maybe tokyo-to alone is enough, I haven't tried. (copy paste the 3 first kanjis of the example)

I had to input my name as Hiragana, since the first line doesn't recognize Katakana nor roman letters.
Second line only reacts to katakana (full width).

Top left button

That one

This button
https://ipas.isao.net/signup_pso/psobb/images/b_kiyaku.gif

Buncha text, something about immortal soul and giving 20 USD through Paypal to LollipopLolita.....
Press this button
https://ipas.isao.net/signup_pso/psobb/images/b_doi.gif

Enter a VALID email address twice in the two boxes, then press the button.

Check your email, and click the URL available.
The mail is just more stuff about offering your soul up to the dark gods and stuff.

On this screen, enter your name in Kanji... Last name in the first box, first name in the second. Katakana works as well, not sure about hiragana.

Next box is same thing, in kana (Hiragana or Katakana)

Next is zip code... 3 numbers, then 4 numbers. Maybe use somewhere in Tokyo?

Next is address. Pick something again.

Then Phone Number. 2 digit, 4 digit, 4 digit. Try 80 then gibberish. 80 is a cell phone echange, should be pretty much all open.

Then Birthday. Year (4 Digit), Month (2 Digit), Day (2 Digit)

Male or Female is next.

Then 3 boxes for English letters, picking your game ID (login nick). Use lower case letters and at least one number (yes, the number is required). Enter all 3, it'll pick in order of preference.


Then hit ok.. It'll bring you to a confirmation page, making sure the information is correct. Given that you likely put in bunk info for most of it, it's likely not, but meh...
Just hit this button.
https://ipas.isao.net/signup_pso/psobb/images/b_trks.gif

That finishes it, your account Id and password will be mailed to you. If you didn't get any of the three IDs, or have an error in any field, you'll hit a little "red unconfirmation thing" on that previous page with all the blanks... Toss it through Babelfish to find out where the error is, and fix it.

And we're done!

They changed all of that! Don't you people read older posts?

It will be released today on a CD in the Dorimaga (spl?) magazine, On june 8 on another magazine and will be avaliable officially from psobb page sometime in june.

Or we either buy the magazine or hope somebody will rip it and make it avaliable.

ST posted announcing the start of the open beta trial of PSOBB will start on May 21, 2004. If you wish to participate, you will need the client disk which will be included in the June 4.18 issue of the Japanese Dorimaga magazine of the June 8 issue of the Japanese Techwin magazine. Their sites will also start offering exlusive downloads with no charge. You will also need a Game ID to register. Anyone with an email address can register for a Game ID


So if we find the sites, for whichever magazine it is, we can just download the open beta from there on the 21st right? I'm confused!

im going through their site right now (dorimaga) i dont see anything about pso bb.. yet..

Salad messed up on the news post. Dremaga in the 5/21 MAg, Techwin in the 6/8 Mag, and released to download at the beginning of June. That's straight from the latest PSO Express newsletter from Sega. No details on when beginning of June is exactly, or where to download it when it's available.

As for Import magazine shops, no, I was actually talking about one of my friends walking down to a magazine store in Japan, buying the magazine, making an ISO of the CD, and sending it to me. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif The 5th largest city in the US is too small to get something like an import shop for anything but food.



<font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: Arislan on 2004-05-20 12:26 ]</font>

[Rain_1]

Also, isn't it like 4:30 am of the 21st in japan?
It's still a little to early to go out and buy it or find it in a import store anywhere...

And that's exactely how it is. You either Buy the Dorimaga on the 21st of may, buy that other magazine on the 8th of june or download it from PSOBB's official website sometime in june. No exact word on the day.

Thus, the only chance of me (or most of the people here) to get the pso bb client today or tomorrow would be to somebody go out in japan (it's still 4:30 am there!), buy the magazine, iso it and put it avaliable for download somewhere.

[Arislan]

Exactly what I'm trying to have a friend do.. I'll see what happens, although he may not have a chance today, he has work immediately after school, and is usually off late. And unlike Borders and Barnes and Noble in the US, places close at a relatively normal time for the most part in Japan. Like 9 PM for the local Super. Convenience stores are 24 hour at least though.

Is it Dremaga or Dorimaga?? o_oa;;



<font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: Nites on 2004-05-20 12:53 ]</font>

katakana would be dorimaga. English spelling is Dremaga. It's short for Dreamcast Magazine, and was changed officially to Dremaga when the DC died.

[Rainbowlemon]

Will this download that you're trying to get your friend to download be *by any chance* available to some of us as well? *wink wink* http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif I really really want to have a go on PSOBB, I've never played a PSO game online before, and i'm so eager to try it out, and i'm sure a few other people will be very thankful. However, if not, I'll be willing to wait http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

[Arislan]

Depends on if passing it around is allowed by the EULA. I would assume so, given that it'll be available for download a little after the Magazine version comes out. I'll keep everyone posted though. Let's hope my friend has enough time to head to the bookstore sometime today.

[Para]

Maybe we'll get more news as the beta starts..

More info on the Team system.

Here (http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/trurl_pagecontent?lp=ja_en&url=http%3a%2f%2fpsobb.jp%2fteam%2fpoint.html)

Also here (http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/trurl_pagecontent?lp=ja_en&url=http%3a%2f%2fpsobb.jp%2fteam%2fprivilege.html)

That esplains two benefits of the Point system. You can increase the size of the clan (It starts at 20 members and 1 leader) (Arislan better do that first for the PSO World Clan...) and the Team Flag function, which I do not understand...

Update on the registration situation - just played about with the 'Personal Details' screen and found the following to append to Arislan's guide:

- You can use English text for the first set of name boxes (Babelfish label "Please input full name with Chinese character")

- But not for the second set ("Please input full name with katakana"); these definitely have to be in Kana. Translated mine using http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/wwwjnames.html.

- The postcode field doesn't appear to check validity, just the correct number of characters

- The address field accepts only Kanji and numerals, and will only accept 50 characters

- The telephone number will accept 3 digits in the first field; this allows valid UK numbers at least

- Game IDs have to be 6-8 characters long, but do NOT need to include a number

Got the mail within about 30 seconds of registering; just need the game now...turns out the BitTorrent link topic wasn't deleted,just moved - it's now at http://www.pso-world.com/viewtopic.php?topic=82869&forum=9&12.

I wrote it in katakana but with no luck. I even tried hiragana, but then it wouldn't even get that far...

Error 006.

Place a space after the url.

Apparently, team flag is what it says.. a team flag.

For example, you own a clan... if you buy the team flag option (from points people gave to the clan by registering useless special weapons), you can use a "flag" for your clan. For example, a little PSOWORLD Icon next to the name of that clan's members. You (the master) can change the icon as you wish. At least that's what i've picked up...

Now where's that damn psobb client? http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

[prismsub5]

i've found a http link of psobb

not the torrent one

but posting here would be bad for my account

*coughpmcough*

[slickochet]

well after the challenge of registering on a japanese form, i finally got it. but just to confirm. its not up for download yet, right?

[prismsub5]

on the official servers not

but some sites already have it from the japanese magazine

[Mixfortune]

Bleh I'm still getting the error due to my kana name it seems, but I can't figure out why... my download is at 95%, too... hope this doesn't take me too long to figure out.

[jazzerb25]

Heh.

Any of you youngin's want to help me out here? I am completely lost at what to do, don't know how to enter my words in a language other than english, and stuff like that.

PM me, or e-mail me at [email protected] if anyone can lend me a hand.

*looks at forms again* Yeah, this isn't gonna happen.

[Arislan]

Mix, and/or Jazzer, heck, anyone else that needs help.. Message me on AIM, tis easiest. User name is in my profile. I'll see what I can do.

Oh, and as is listed in the official block topic, the PSOW team is made.

[Para]

u cant alt tab as i heard?

[Arislan]

Nope, it crashes the game.

[prismsub5]

to be correct it closes the game (it still saves everything) lets hope someone creates a "patch" for it very soon

[Rain_1]

What about NOT Pressing alt+tab?
you people do know that you can easyly create a util that runs in the background that changes the memory value to, for example, create a item. Or, for example, insert a item you don't have in the bank (hint hint).

Doing that in fullscreen mode would be kinda hard. Doing that in windowed (or alt tabbing) would be much easier...

Do you really need to alt+tab while battleing against a horde of boomas?

Also, i have a question. Is the client Jap only?



<font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: Rain_1 on 2004-05-21 21:55 ]</font>

[Arislan]

No, it works on any OS. Bit weird in how it fuctions with IMEs, but it works on other OSes. The language settings are all JP, no way to change them to English.

If you can't enter your ID when trying to login
Right click the EN or JP icon in the taskbar, Click settings, and set Japanese to your default input language. Say ok and restart. You should be able to do it then.. Once you've logged in the first time, it'll save your ID. After that, change the setting back, and restart the computer again, unless you want to be changing your IME every time you start a new program.

[Para]

omg they changed section ID CALCULATIONS!!!!

[Arislan]

Yep, I created my good old Skyly and hit Yellowboze, then Viridia on a different spelling. Wonder how they do the calculation now?

[Rain_1]

when i said jap only i meant language, not os support. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

Thanks for the info tho.

[Arislan]

Just a quick reminder Rain, use jp, jp, or Japanese. Jap is an ethnic slur. And no, better practice up on your katakana, cause there's no English to be found in the game.

[xXShadowTHXx]

I'm having trouble with my keyboard....
I've set languages to type text in game, I was able to log in, name my character, but when I try to chat in the game nothing shows up. Now I can't even move ingame for some reason, the only thing I can do is press alt+ F4, and the F1 keys. anyone have any ideas?

[Arislan]

You start typing by using Space first, after that, I don't know... Haven't had a problem of not being able to type in game, nor have I heard anyone else having that problem. If you used my little trick of changing IMEs, change it back to English when you&re done... Maybe having it in JP mode with an English keyboard is the problem.

[xXShadowTHXx]

I know about the space chat thing, btw can you post what you did to type in BB, I want to redo it to see if it was just an mistake I made

[DarthFomar]

Ummmm.....what's blue burst. No let me rephrase that....."Wth is blue burst"?! http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

I have competely never heard of this before?!

[Arislan]

Darth, it's the new PSO version for the PC, now in Open Beta in Japan. Click Home, then PSO Blue Burst for more info.


As for the little trick for not being able to enter account info
Right click the EN or JP icon in the taskbar, Click settings, and set Japanese to your default input language. Say ok and restart. You should be able to do it then.. Once you've logged in the first time, it'll save your ID. After that, change the setting back, and restart the computer again, unless you want to be changing your IME every time you start a new program.

So, try that, both ways, IME on and off, see if either works for you.

[Rain_1]

to Arislan: yeah, i know that... I don't usually use that term in online gaming where lots of jp people are around.. not the case here...

and about the katakana... i don't plan on typing that much online... gonna play with a couple of friends mainly with voice chat... so.. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

oh.. also.. it's pso... like i don't know what items are what and what is what from previous versions...

[Sharkyland]

So how is it? My computer sucks and I have no controller for it.

[Arislan]

Its everything I couldve wanted from it. A nice, smooth, good lookinbg version of PSO. With no cheating. I just need a controller with two pads so I can actually use the menu while running.

[xXShadowTHXx]

I fixed the walking problem with my Keyboard, but I still can't type anything in game (other than my Username and PW, and new characters)

[Hapsby]

I can enter my username and pass, than my username shows up in yellow, but then I don't know how to start it, or save that setting.. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_confused.gif

[Arislan]

Once you enter the L/P, pick the top option (that you couldnt pick before), that'll log you in. Once you're logged in, the L/P will stay saved.

[Nai_Calus]

thanks

[demonhill]

sorry just read above njstar hehehe

[Link00seven]

I registered and got the game working, but it wont let me type anything in the userid/pass fields O_O. Weird...

[JDA]

I can't enter anything in the fields either. I'm running Window ME (UK) and I've installed the Office XP Japanese IME, but I can't set Japanese as the default language. I can select Japanese using the system tray icon, but this only saves the setting for that program, and only shows for IE, Outlook etc. ; it won't let me do it for PSOBB. I've tried downloading the stand-alone 5.02 IME, which will let me select languages for other programs, but I can't use this for PSOBB either as I can't get to the system tray whilst the program is running (selecting Japanese at the menu doesn't work). Any ideas how I can get it to use Japanese as the default language?

[prismsub5]

well you can just copy/paste stuff from the register page...it worked for me

[Rainbowlemon]

jda, i'm not sure about ME, but on 2000 you can press alt and shift to switch between IME settings. Try that whilst in PSOBB, and it should work. I'm not sure whether it has to be in kanji or romaji though...

[JDA]

No luck I'm afraid - regardless of which input method (Hiragana, half-width Katakana etc.) I set the IME to use by default, the keyboard shortcut doesn't help matters. The cursor keys work fine in the menus, as do Enter and Backspace, but nothing else seems to. The IME wil let me type in Kana in IE/Outlook, but this doesn't help much.

EDIT: Thought occurs; could someone who's got it up and running please check whether it's storing the login details in the Registry? The keys are at HKCUSoftwareSonicTeamPSOBB & HKUDefaultSoftwareSonicTeamPSOBB, and I have 5 in each section (CTRLBUF, FONT_JPN, GRAPHICCTRL, INSTALL, SOUNDCTRL). Any differences noted? Thanks.

If not, could anyone please check which file shows as being modifed if you change your login details? I might have a better shot at modifying the details directly rather than trying to get the IME operating correctly at this rate...

Thanks for any help!

Make sure you set both Japanese language and Japanese keyboard layout as default before going into PSOBB.

how do u change to the specific jp text types in njstar to fill in the names i cant get them to work plz anyhelp welcome ive read every post on this siote but still cant do it.

[Arislan]

You could always go the IME route. Every single person that's reported problems with signing up has been using
NJstar.

To use the IME

Go to Regial and Language Settings, then to Languages. Check Support for East Asian Languages.
Press Ok
Install and restart if necessary.
Go back into that same menu
Click details.
Add Japanese Microsoft IME Standard 2002
Now, to switch modes, either click the EN button which s somewhere on your screen now (likely the upper right somewhere), or press alt + shift
The code page is likely looking for full width katakana, try half width if that doesnt work.
That's about it there.

Well, it's good to see that sonic team is finally doing something against hacking(At least, apparently).

Seems a couple people have managed to change their stats, and it does work, at least until the server re-syncs (for sure when you leave and enter a game, pretty sure about returning to P2). It makes the stat static... Glad they are hacking these things now, while it's in beta and being developed, rather than later on in Final when the prgrammers are off doing other things.

[Rain_1]

The thing is: IS Sonic Team aware of those hacks?

It's not like i can mail them saying: hey, go to PSOC***** (you know what site i'm talking about.. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif) and read the messageboard, there's where all the hackin is going on.

Speaking of which, what all quests are currently available and how do you do them? Besides the government ones, I mean. Every time I talk to the guild lady it doesn't accomplish anything. </n00b>

[watashiwa]

Well, I can't seem to finish 3-2, but I only tried once. I killed all the enemies and am racing through the Mines before it explodes, but I can't make it to the teleporter because there is some wind that blocks my path and pushes me back.

How do you get past the wind?

Here's a screenshot (http://www.r-base.net/bb/bb55.jpg)

Any help would be appreciated!

[astuarlen]

I'm not positive, but there's a quest with pushy wind in Ep1+2. You have to walk instead of run to get through it. Hope that is the solution! http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

[Arislan]

To do the offline quests, you have to choose the "Play By Yourself" mode on game creation. Then, talking to the Guild Lady does the same thing as if you were offline. Starting with Battle Training and all that, cept that Seat of the Heart is available from the start.

[MakoSOLDIER]

do the address have to be in japaneese too?

Hmmm.....

The only quests available to me are the three first ones, aka "the first tier". I assumed all the other quests just hadn't been added yet...:S I've done all Ep1 government quests, perhaps maybe I have to do them all? Or are the good quests all on Ep2?

[AquaFlare7]

I have a belief that it will come to USA, as there is a J before the level of your character, indicating Japanese. What would the point be of indicating the player is japanese if it were only going to be played by them?

[RFB]

I think they were just too lazy as to remove the letter.
Now seriously, I dont believe they will release BB outside Japan, but that little "J" is our only ray of hope.

[Arislan]

If it's anything like PSO PC was, it'll be released in Tai and China, so there is a point to that letter. Doesn't mean it will be released to an English market. And quite frankly, looking at a couple cheat pages, I can see why Sega would keep the English players away. Some of them literally are out to hack the game simply to lose Sega business.

It doesn't make good business sense to lock out an entire region, but it doesn't make good financial sense to have to completely rewrite our code due to this region's concerted efforts to make you fail, either.

[slickochet]

man i do hope they bring out an english version and/or patch. and soon. playing totally in japanese is very confusifirmicating indeed

[King_Rappy]

Heh, yeah I think you're right. I think they are keeping the new level under wraps. If you look in the game files which by default will be someplace like (C:Program FilesSEGAPHANTASY STAR ONLINE Blue Burstdatascene) you'll see that no new areas have been added.

Hehe, nope, walking slowly doesn't help. As you are running out, there is a room with two warps. When you go past that room to the next bit, you can go right to the door at the end, or left. First, GO LEFT. There is a few lazer fences that you have to deactivate, then behind the boxes there is a switch which you must press to deactivate the wind.

Do you think that there'll be any way to get more than 4 characters? Other than buying the game 3 times, and paying for it 3 times...-__-;

Like, on FFXI, you can pay a small extra fee for one extra character. Do you think something similar will be available for PSO BB? Like an extra dollar a month for 4 more character slots?

[RFB]

No. But that's just my opinion.

Broomop was the first person banned from the beta http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif He is back now though.

[Arislan]

Where did that come from?

And in any case, given that signups are free and quick, nothing short of an IP ban is going to stop a banned person from coming back on during Beta.

//edit
Little addition as well. He says he's the first to get banned, but I'm in doubt of that. Just cause the guy says so, doesn't make it true.

I have played some with Broomop and I'm really pissed on Sega. They probably wont make anything against his hacks.

He wandered around as a GM and warped us around areas in a game.

We were in lobby as a team and much other shit. I have also seen the new stage a bit. o.o Or a unreleased episode 1 stage. o.o It looked like Spaceship in tuins style. On the bridges. Between houses. o.o

I really though they would do anything agaisnt hacks. I hope someone can report this in japanese and so on. I'm trying to get my freind to report all exploits but he is lazy.. =(

That place you see is called Control Tower. Its nothing really new unless you've been confined to PC version only lol

[Arislan]

Don't worry, Sega *is* being appraised of exploits, I get reports from people quite often that they or friends of theirs just sent in mails on things. They are listening, and they've broken a few of Brooms trainer style hacks, but he can fix them again just as easily as long as he has interest and Sega doesn't change their methods.

[DarK-SuN]

I just really wanted for Broom to stop this idiocy, or keep the hacks private.
It's enough when he uses them, we don't need others to do them as well.

It's funny, since he once said "let's keep PSOBB hack free", although I presume he forgot (or noticed he could make hacks, I think he said that initially with fear of not being able to hack, so said that to cover his ass) and just wants to be an ass again.
