New info on Blue Burst

[Cheeky]

According to the latest PSO Express(Vol. 8 ), open beta ends July 5th, but the full release has been moved to July 8th and will be available for download once again at http://www.bitway.ne.jp and http://www.computerwave.co.jp.The download will be 400mb and will cost 1,200 yen.

Open Beta players who continue on in the full release will receive Chameleon Scythe as a gift from Sonic Team(make sure you have space in your inventory or else you wont get it). People who registered a Team in Beta will receive 2000 bonus points. This only pertains to team masters who decide to participate in the full release.

I used Babelfish to translate so some info may need correction. Feel free to do so.

Looks like I need money in my paypal account, QUICK. I'll take a couple dollars in donations, if people are willing, or if someone is willing to lend me a little as well, that'll be returned as soon as my first paycheck goes through. I'm DEFINITELY continuing to the retail, but if we want to get the 2000 bonus points towards a flag or more members, I need help here.

Of course, this really only applies to those PSOW team members that are around, but if anyone else feels like donating/lending "for the cause", feel free to PM me. Remember, 2000 points is equal to 200-2000 Special Weapon finds, so I *really* don't want the team to miss out on this.

I wonder why I don't get the newsletter till over a day after you Cheeky? Odd.

Well looks like we'll get the 2000 points Arislan but I gotta find my way to p2p asap!

[Nai_Calus]

Meep. Need money sooner than I thought. >.>; Better remind myself to deposit this $10 bill tommorow...

[Cheeky]

IMO it's time pso world considered making a seperate board for everything blue burst, including team rankings, members, registered affiliations etc. just wait when the new level is released! This is gonna be the biggest PSO ever.

[Para]

well lets make the psow team official so we can put it on our profiles lol

[slickochet]

woo woo. any word on if there will be english in it?

[Cinnamon]

Am I the only one that can't find any other English players on BB? XP How does one pay with an American credit card anyway?

[Arislan]

Well, as for the PSOW BB Team, it's about as official as it is going to get, IE, a team that there are members in, but nothing from the site itself stating "THIS IS OUR TEAM". The reason being, is that until we can get enough points, we have a 10 member max, then 20, then 40, then 100. So we will quickly reach points where we simply cannot allow people to join, when, if you think about an official team, that isn't really what we are about. So... Yeah.

As for English, no word. My guess would be no. PSO PC players had to wait for the Tai version to get English, and that was almost a year later. It'll be a while, if ever, guys.

Like I said, PM me if you can/want to donate to the team, I'm looking at the 10th being my first paycheck, which, unfortunately, is after the service-in, and will likely kill our chance to get the points. I could care less about the Scythe, I may end up donating mine for an extra point or 10. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif Perhaps not, not sure if I'll be making a FOmarl for my 4th slot, if so, I may use it...

[BlueBlaze]

Any chance the final release will be import friendly like all the others? Being able to change the language to english is what I'm looking for. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_mad.gif

[Saffran]

Arislan, I think you'll get the points even if you start you paid account 2 days later - the server knows you were a beta tester.
Incidentally, this will be a tremendous boost to my team as well, seeing that I only have about... errr... 17 points or so. -_-;;

[Crystal_Shard]

Sheesh, why did my network supervisor switch off my network yesterday and today...

I only spotted this news today. Now I'll have to wait till the 8th to register.

I'm curious about something. I downloaded the open Beta download file but never got
around to using it. It should still be valid if I install it now right?

[blehbleh]

I've got a question. I don't have an international credit card and don't plan on getting one just so I can pay for the PSOBB Hunter License. I noticed that you're asking for PayPal donations Arislan. Can one use PayPal to pay for the Hunter License? If so, can you please explain how?

Lol our team is barely on though!
I rarely see you on these days Arislan.
Most of the time its either Antimony or me.

[Arislan]

If you have the download, but no User Account, you are SOL, the signups stopped about 12 hours ago. Have to wait till Service In to get an account then. Only 9 days, I think you'll live.

Paypal doesn't pay for your HL, nor can you just paypal Sega for it. However, those of us that are able to get Paypal Debit cards (from using a business account) are able to use that as a credit card, coming straight out of the Paypal account. Very handy.

Nites, I'd love to get on, been itching for BB for the past few days. But as it is, I'm stuck on a laptop that can't handle the game graphically for the next 12 days. Trust me, assuming I'm paid up when I get back to my normal computer, I'll be playing my butt off, like I was before. VH here I come! Finally!

[Para]

I know... Ive been waiting for VH for a long time... I still need my friend to help me evolve my lvl 49 mag into madhu though >_>
More so I hope soon enough I can get my Demo comet that Ive been itching so badly for one

[Nai_Calus]

At the rate I'm going, I will never get to VHard. >.>;

Oh, Nites, I still have a free character slot, if you run into me first I can make a B-type ranger real quick for you.

Ehm, yea...about that...I quit the team, because nobody was ever on! http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_redface.gif However, I'll still be around, so it's not like there's much of a loss http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

I was also wondering how you would pay without a credit card? Would a debit work, or would I have to sign up for paypal maybe?...

[Arislan]

If you have a method to get Webmoney (I *believe* you can do an International Money Order for it) you can pay that way. Otherwise, if your debit card has a Visa or Mastercard logo on it, you're good to go as well, just enter it as if it were a CC, and Sega will take the money no problem.

If you're not on the team, how are you going to know if people ARE on? XP I saw you in a game, but you had it locked and I had no way of contacting you to see if you wanted to play since I don't have your guild card. XP

[Crystal_Shard]

Actually, I was mainly concerned with whether I'd be able to play using the beta
download version once I can sign up on the 8th. I'm a little curious if that ver.
works with earlier accounts only, and if all User IDs registered after the beta test
date have to purchase the final version in order to play.

Oh well, I still have PSO GC and RL stuff to keep me occupied. No matter.

[Nai_Calus]

You mean, do you have to pay for the client, or can you use the beta client for free? Dunno. It would be nice if you could use it, but knowing ST... http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_disapprove.gif

Oh, and I'm co-leader of the PSOW team, so I can also be PMed if anyone who hasn't yet wants to join, since I can invite people onto it as well as Aris.

[Arislan]

Ian, you can send mail to people on your team as well. It's one of the options when you select that member in the Team Menu. Or else you can always hit F9, talk, and hope the others notice that a Team Chat came up.

[Nai_Calus]

Yeah, but if Anti's not on the team, doesn't do me any good, now does it? ^_-;

[Para]

YOu can use the beta client I hear... I better download the client for reserve now because i deleted the install file!!

That would be nice, I could use the 20 bucks for other things. >_>;

Heh, I still have my CD.
