Oh god as if this isnt the worst of my problems, I'm having billing issues, and so does alot of people today, when we tried to renew our RECURRING subscriptions (being put on hold due to an error, how original and informative?), me and lot of people on the official PSU forums kep resuming it, and it kept going back to inactive. Can't even edit our credit card info.

God Sega, you screwed up Sonic by making a glitchy game, PSU is getting scrwed due to holes in programming, but errors that involve with BILLING, with real cold hard cash? Do they even know how bad it makes them look? This game is out for almost 2 monthes now, alot more in Japan, and there's a BILLING error? As if hacks arent enough, now I have to worry about my REAL money. I just hope it didnt bill me 10 times.

BTW Libram got his room hacked . Poor soul, his PM lvl 0 and all his decors gone... I hope he screnshoted his visitor log and then mail it to Sega. Thats what PSOWORLD is telling everyone to do if room has been hacked.

Don't go boasting about what you have on sale, what decors you have, your PM and don't advertise yourself as someone from PSO world.

And if your character starts spamming a website and profanity and racial slurs in bubble chat, you're getting chat hacked and either log off or switch servers.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Actually some of them wanted to boast that they hacked the game, so they send a mail to the player they just stole, and they showed up on their visitor log. My advice is still try to screenshot if anything comes up suspicious, cause some of these guys are doing it for the "fame" too.

My PM is only lvl 4, and I have all my cash and decors with me. So I dun think there will be a huge problem on my end...

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Daravon, is it possible for me to get your partner card? I also like to check out your shop sometime.

And I have a question, which is a better left handed range weapon to go with a saber, Handgun, crossbow, or machine gun? I'm a fighgunner.

Also what bullets should I get for said left handed range weapon and my twin handguns?

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Thank you so much for the extensive info Daravon, and the tip Para. Now I have the knowledge to decide what's best for my character.

Is your alt char's name correct? I can't find your shop.

I was speaking idiomatically.

*sigh*... sad to say it, but it looks like I'll be leaving this game pretty soon. It just doesn't seem to be offering much these days. It's all too little too late. The only thing that really kept me going so long was the good people to hang out with. I'll stop by now and again to visit some people since I have a few months left on my account, but it looks like I'm just about done.
Aww cmon, theres new outfits, items and room decor coming out in Jan 12. I missed partying with ya.

Come on around next month, thers plenty of stuff coming out soon. Like swimsuits!

But if you still gonna leave, can I borrow your weapons for the time bring? :P Heh heh.

But seriously, partying and chatting with ya and En'sorato is alot of fun, PLEEAASSE come back.

Most amazing jew boots

They have been adding missions for the past month, and more will come, like the hive.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I just really wish they'd add some more missions, like a lot more. I'll probably be on this saturday for a bit. Perhaps I just need to cut my PSU playtime and keep it even more casual. Luckily the monthly fee isn't too hefty. If I do absolutely decide to leave... don't worry, you and some others will be getting some fun stuff for free.
Ok, I'm on right now. Hopefully you will be on soon.

How ya doing, buddy?

You can combine the swimsuits with any clothing you have. (Or hell any clothing items that cant be used together)

http://www.pso-world.com/viewtopic.p...rum=20&start=0






This glitch has led me to waste money to have some fun. This look is NOT permanent.





Here's one co-starring Lobo!



I noticed when someone is in the room, the success rate goes down, so make sure no one else is in your room before doing the glitch.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Of all the glitches they fixed, they fixed the one that cause no major harm and people actually LIKED it.

Yeah, the clothing glitch is gone, now people go back to the old limited combinations... Blah.

Thank god I did those screenshots before the update came in.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I will continue to play just for the sake of seeing my boyfriend and playing with him, (Long distance till I'm done with my education), and will continue to lvl up. The expansion is VERY good news, and will get it as soon as its avaliable.

Did PSU do well in Japan? Cause that may be why its getting a expansion, there seems to be a number of Asian players as well, since the scans were from a Chinese forum.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

You probably battled Dalk Falkis on B or C rank didn't you? There's more on A rank (I think) and S rank. He's VERY deadly on S just like De Ragnus.
ONLY S rank has the 2nd form, and apparentyly its tough as hell. But the fight LOOKS cool the whole way through.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

NEW CLOTHES COMING ON APRIL 13TH!!

Finally! I've been waiting for the Maotoob clothes for a long time! Now my Lizzy can really look like she can kick ass!

By the way, I still haven't got partner cards from everyone on this topic, care to set a time to find each other?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Man that S rank dagger found at S2 rappy runs... Seems like less than 10 people managed to find the board.

I hate seasonal S ranks... You have to wait a YEAR to even try to find it again.

Expasion news

Screenshots and youtube movies can be found in this topic:http://www.pso-world.com/viewtopic.p...9&forum=20&581

Quote:
There won't be any real questions about the actual game until tonight when the server goes up. So until then, this is mainly a placeholder, and for questions about actually signing up for it. Once the beta starts, I'll organize questions and answers into the first post.


1. What do you need to sign up for the beta?
The only thing you truly need is a japanese copy of the game for PS2 or PC. But in order to qualify, you need to have your account switched to the ISAO system. But your account does not need to be paid for.

2. How do I switch my account to the ISAO system?
First, go to the Isao login page, here:
https://ipas.isao.net/signup_psu/psu/login.htm

You will need your segalink id and password, which is what you used when you first signed up for PSU. After entering, you will be asked to accept the EULA and other agreements. And asked to input your personal information. Name needs to be in kanji (or atleast kana). And the address needs to be in the form of a japanese address (like the example *wink wink nudge nudge*)

3. How do I download the client?
http://illuminus-trial.phantasystaru.../download.html
Big blue button in the middle of the page. You then use the first 12 numbers in your cd-key (back of your manual) without hyphens as your username, and last 4 as your password.

4. I'm having trouble using the client downloader or I can't find my manual, can you help me?
Step 1: Log into the Isao system:
https://ipas.isao.net/signup_psu/psu/login.htm

Step 2: Find your cd-key
On the isao website, after loging in, the page it brings you to (if you have correctly switched to the isao system), displays your name, whether your account is active, your cd-key, and the date you signed up.

The cd-key will be in the form:
1234-5678-9012-3456-7890

The information you will use is:
Username: 123456789012
Pass: 7890

Step 3: Download the client
If the downloader isn't working for you, you can follow a direct link, using your username and password from above:
http://dl.segaonline.jp/illuminus_setup.exe

5. How big is the client, and what are the system reqs?
The initial client download is 833MB. You will need atleast an additional 1GB (1.5GB to be safe), on top of your PSU install if you have PSU installed.

System reqs are the same as PSUs. If you can run PSU, you can run Illumines. The system reqs can be found here:
http://illuminus-trial.phantasystaru...tart/spec.html

Or you can use PSU's system reqs, found in english here:
http://phantasystaruniverse.com/support_sysreq.php

6. How long does the beta last.
It will start after the April 5th scheduled maintenance. This is from JST (GMT+9) 9:00am - 6:00pm. Thats from EST (GMT-5) (+1 for DST) April 4th, 8:00pm - April 5th 5:00am. And will end after the maintenance on April 26th.

7. Will you need the original version of the game?
A lot of the content appears to be from the original version of the game, I would suspect you would. For the beta, you do not need the original version installed (though you need to own it).


1. Will I be able to use my characters from the original game?
There is a selector that selects which world you want to pull data from. The data is copied from the original servers as of 3/29. Its important to note taht they are copies, and that what happens in teh beta stays in the beta.

2. What are some of the new features?
- Autorun
- Looking for Party Flags
- Shadow mapping
- Class level visible above head
- More clothes and hairstyles
- 4 new weapons
- A-rank weapons from other manufaturers
- My room Away Messages
- Trap prices lowered
- My room system complete revamp
- Casino
- New areas and monsters
- Death penalty changed
- Grinding system change

3. What are some of the class changes?
- Hunters get B-rank Shadoogs (mags) and single claws
- Rangers get B-rank Shadoogs (mags) and gernade launchers
- Forces get B-rank Madoogs (mags)

Figunner:
A-rank Slicer and Shadoog
Level 40 skills, level 30 bullets

Guntecher:
A-rank whips, slicers, and Madoogs and S-rank Long bows
Level 10 skills, level 40 bullets, level 20 attack techs, level 30 support techs

Wartecher:
A-rank whips, and Madoogs, and S-rank wands
level 30 skills, level 20 bullets, level 30 attack techs, level 20 support techs

Fortefighter:
Level 40 Skills, level 20 bullets.

Fortegunner:
A-rank Shadoog
Level 20 Skills, level 40 bullets.

Fortecher:
Level 10 Skills, level 30 bullets, level 40 attack techs, level 40 support techs.

Protranser:
S-rank of all previously usable weapons
Level 40 skills, level 40 bullets

4. What are the 2 new classes
(no prereqs for either right now, and both of them level like basic classes. Nobody thinks it will stay this way in the final version)
Acrofighter:
S-ranks - twin sabers, saber, dagger, claw, slicer, handgun, shadoog
A-ranks - twin handgun, card
Level 40 Skills, Level 30 bullets

Acrotecher:
S-rank - Twin dagger, saber, dagger, whip, handgun, card, madoog
A-rank - twin handgun, wand
Level 20 skills, level 30 bullets, level 30 attack techs, Level 50 support techs.

5. How do you autorun?
On controllers you press left, on keyboards you press r. You just run straight, endlessly till you press the button again. You can also press down or up to cycle targeting the players in party. And then press left to autro run towards that player. This causes a green line to show up connecting you to the other player.

6. How do looking for party flags work?
One of the "above head" views that you can switch through has a Looking for Party section. In this you can have a variety of things, such as actively looking for party, solo player, not looking for party, etc.

7. How do My Room away messages work?
You can set a message for your PM to say as people enter your room. This is done at your PM. Theres two options for this, I think one might be a "Thank you for shopping" style message. More info later.

8. How do the new weapons work?
Mags - Mags are seperated into Madoogs (Force) and Shadoogs (Melee). They are off-handed. The Shadoogs randomly shoot at things when in range. Tehy have an element associated with them. The Madoogs can equip two techs and you cast it like an offhand wand.

Slicers - more info later

Whips - Whips have a very large AoE. It has a very fluid movement, but its hard to tell how far it hits and takes some getting used to. Overall, its speed and damage aren't very great, but it can hit a very large number of enemies and its current PA is one of the most sick crowd controls around. The current whip is lightning element only, and causes shock.

9. How does the Casino work?
Each day you are given 100 Bronze to play with. I would expect the actual release amount will be lower.

Theres 3 main things to do in the casino. The first is Roulette, which you're bombarded with as soon as you enter the room. The entire floor is a gigantic Roulette board. The games start when outer circle slowly starts becoming highlighted. During this time you can place your bets by standing on the spaces you wish to be and selected them. After its fully highlight the game begins, betting is disabled, and the wheel spins. You win multiples of bronze based on the rarity of your bet spaces.

2nd, you can do slot machines. You press use to add coins, then press alt attack to pull the lever. You win by getting 3 in a row. Amounts are shown on the left hand side of the screen.

3rd, you can spend your bronze on items.

10. How was the death penalty changed?
If someone dies in party and is revived, then it does not get counted against the death penalty. This means theres only 2 situations where you can lose rank base don death.
- You die and respawn to town
- An NPC dies and respawns based on time

11. How was the grinding system changed?
The grind rate was lowered significantly, but the weapon is no longer destroyed when you fail a grind. This doesn't necessarily increase the number of highly grinded weapons because of the lower rate.

12. Do PAs over level 30 get new additions?
Skills do not get any added combos to them, but do get increased damage.
Bullets do not get any added bullets to them, but get increases ATA, ATP, and elemental %s.
Techs do get larger effect areas, and increased damage.


1. How about new items in shops?
60mes for normal, 350mes for G - Freeze, Confuse, Sleep, Shock, Silence
70mes for normal, 400mes for G - Poison
75mes for normal, 450mes for G, 500mes for EX - Burn

3. New Hairstyles?
The new hairstyles fit into a basic system. You have a "front" of hair, and a "back" of hair. Then they are combined together in different ways. I will get male hairstyles up later, but for now:
Female Front
Female Back

There is also a new system for choosing hair styles, that allows you to chose the hair style first, then the accessory, so you don't need to flip through the 250-ish choices. Keep in mind though, this does not ADD any previously unattainable combinations, its only a way of organizing what was already there.

4. Do class levels go over 10?
They can go to 30.

5. What new monsters are online?
Most monsters are reskins of old ones. Its confirmed that there is a De Rolei Boss. Also, in the mission I did, we had Grass Assassins as bosses.

6. How is the My Room system changed?
There are new reform tickets available from the store. After using one of these, you get an episode 2 style room. These don't have the little boxes on the ground, and you can turn what is called the "room grid" on and off through your PM. When the room grid is on, you may add and remove my room items. Most items are 2x2 blocks on the grid, and theres even grid on the walls, shelves, and even on some of the room items you put in (you can put more items onto a table or shelf you buy).
Grid Examples:

7. Why are you obsessed with green green farm boxes?
Because they are AWESOME. No seriously. Heres the low down on them:
They are a my room item. You can plant them in somebodies room, then add one item and a message to them. Then the owner of the room may open them like a present. So they are a sort of way to leave gifts. A mailbox of sorts. Its something thats probably largely overlooked, but a very good addition to PSU.


1. Hows Shadow Mapping work?
In the options menu, you can choose between having shadown mapping for you, your party, or enemies (which I assume includes your party). This is a real time shadow, that is actually in the form of your body. Runs with you, bends over walls, etc. It adds a nice little touch.
Shadow map set to self:


2. Is the text still distorted / hard to read?
Yes, but its far easier to read. They're using a new filter on it that makes everything look crisper and easier to read.

3. How do the new facial expressions work?
The facial expressions are a reskinning of the actual in game face of your character to immitate the cut in chats. Every emote in the game has a default expression associated with it, and this can be further changed by hard coding the emotes. For example, alt+1 has a wide smile emote (@7 I think). But you can change this by typing out "/alt1@4" or something to that nature. No text bubble will come up and you will do the emote with a different facial expression.


4. How are rarity stars handled now?
The stars are actually smaller and color coded. The first 3 will always be dark blue, the next 3 will always be light blue, the next 3 green, etc. This makes it easier to read how many stars it is by just glancing, and it also makes most of the on screen windows smaller, since the actual stars are smaller.


5. How are new items to shops handled?
New items in shops have flashing yellow exclamation points next to them. This makes it easy to distinguish if something is new. Especially in situations where the new items are mixed in with old ones.


6. How can you tell what is illumines stuff?
All illumines content appears is yellow text. It is assumed that in the final version of the game, people who own the illumines version will have yellow names, and those who have not will have white names. And only those who have illumines (yellow names) can access illumines areas (yellow areas).

----- Questions about things Unique to the Beta -----
1. Is there an offline mode?
There is an offline mode, but you are unable to select it, and the content for it is not in the client downloaded.

2. Are PAs expected to be different in the beta?
The new weapons level at crazy speeds, the new classes aswell. This is most likely only because they want people to try out these new things.

Also, in the beta, it doesn't appear to have skill caps on. That means a guntecher can spam level 30 skills if they so choose. And all classes can just continuously level PAs. Not that PAs level that fast.

3. Whats this about you having free warps?
The warp ladies right now are giving free warps to the lobbies. Supposedly, in interviews, it was said that these will eventually cost money. But for now, you don't even need a friend in the lobby, you can warp there for free from the lady.

4. The beta is PC only, but is Illumines expected to be for other systems?
All of the advertisements say PC / PS2 / X360. Its assumed it will be for all 3.

You will wanna max out your PAs ASAP before the expasion comes out in fall, since all PAs caps will increase.

Alot of info on the beta on PSO World forums, so check out there.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
