I played a good amount of PSO back in the day, but never the JP version. The announcement of PSO2 rekindled the Booma within me and thus I signed up for the beta and feel honored to have received the acceptance e-mail. I was just wondering what it's going to be like playing the closed beta since it will be the JP version, all Japanese text, etc. A couple main questions come to mind if anyone and everyone could reply with some insight:
1) Players will be able to type using English characters as well as Japanese correct?
2) Assuming there will be no translation patch of any sort (I read in another thread that it seems like this won't be happening for beta or prod release?)... How much of a deterrence/pest is it for people who can't read Japanese to play the game?
3) I'm assuming there will be a decent amount of helpful English documentation around the forums etc. like some of the various things that I have already come across like helpful phrases and menu/character-creation guides (also if anyone had a set of a couple core links to threads/pages that they think are the best guides for stuff currently and could reply with those that would be quite wonderful)?
4) It sounds like the ship everyone speaking English (at least on these forums) is headed to, is ship 2... is the idea that there will be enough English-speaking people that it won't be hard to party up with English-speaking people? If the player wants to play with people who are speaking Japanese, is it one of those things where if you don't speak Japanese there's a good chance you'll get booted from the party (hopefully not booted from the beta)?
5) What are some other helpful things to know going into my first JP version experience or more specifically my first PSO2 Beta JP experience?
