Article: More Details on Japan's Upcoming AOTI Supplemental Update

[EspioKaos]

SonicTeam updated their website for Japan's upcoming AOTI supplemental update with further details on some previously announced features. Here's a brief synopsis of the recent additions.

• The capacity of the common box will be increased to 100 items from the current limit of 32.
• The item delivery function available at select NPC vendors will be replaced with direct access to your common box from the vendor.
• A function will be added to partner cards to allow players to transport directly to another player's room from their card.
• The current list of online status indicators will be replaced with the ability to create your own indicators. Furthermore, your current online status will appear on your partner card.
• The optional billing additions known previously as "PSU Tickets" are now known as "GUARDIANS Cash."
• All PS2 users will have access to the system file upgrades offered by this update, but they will not receive visual upgrades for new items. However, new items will be available to PS2 users. These items will simply use existing in-game visuals, though the names, descriptions and stats will be unique.

For further details on these recent additions as well as to voice your thoughts and opinions on this upcoming update for the Japanese PC/PS2 servers, check out this thread at the forum!

Wow, the common box enlargement will be a welcome change and the ability to go to players rooms from their cards!

Not bad so far. Nothing dramatic, but I think will make things more accessible to players. Sega will have to work hard on GUARDIANS Cash aspect - many are still not very supportive of it. ;]

hmmm... can you go to your own room as easily?

The fact that I wont have to go to my room to change equipment is a massive plus for me! No more 55/60 T^T

I'm liking everything except the whole "Guardians Cash" thing. Should make things easier for when your doing runs, so you don't have to make bank runs every 4 or 5 times

Not bad SEGA. Not bad at all...
