[General Discussion] Any PSO fans out there?

I know I'm bumping a really, REALLY old topic, but does anyone here play PSO BB on the private servers? With the BB servers going down, seems like that's where everyone is going to so they can keep on playing. And its totally free.

SCHTHACK Phantasy Star Online - A Private Server

My fiance and I decided to get it to play together today, cause I googled it recently and found that the game and servers are absolutly free. He played PSO alot back in the day, having high level characters with sweet gear in both the GC and DC version. He's joining me so I can experience this game for real, and nostagia's sake.

I however never really got to experience PSO fully, when I tried, my sister insisted that I stick with Ranger and not be a Hune cause they are weak in defense and stuff. She was kinda pushy about it which sour my experience. Playing split screen with her wasn't fun due to the screen size, and the boring part of gunning in PSO didn't make it better, while my sister was nuking things with her Fone... After getting up to lvl 3 I just gave up on it.

Then I got PSU with my fiance which had a much smoother combat system, and despite the horrible launch and hiccups the game had, when AoI came out it became alot more fun and casual friendly. But seeing as the MAX G event is coming soon, which has all the PSO stuff coming, I realise if I was to fully experience the nostalgic aspects, I should actually play beyond the 3 lvls I gained and the Forest areas.

So, does anyone here play on the private servers? Maybe we can party together sometime. Could use some help leveling and if you can spare some gear or two that you don't want, that would be nice, since me and my fiance are now newb level...

This is my character.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Are you playing on the private servers Para? If so, it would be nice if we can play together or something.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Ignore the instructions on the site and go to their BB forum stickied thread for complete instructions. To make things easier, get the JP EN patch that lets you see JP only items, and get the new Online EXE from a seperate stickied thread. The patch somehow lets you bypass doing all the IP stuff, and the new Online EXE is noob friendly.

Or to make things even easier, just use the installer other members have made here.

Pso Server Home -> Connection for PSOBB REVISED

And yes, like Sega, if there's inactivity in your account for 3 months, they will purge it. So login once in a while if you wanna keep it safe.

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

Guys, if you haven't logged in for 3 monthes, chances are your character is long gone. So be prepared.

I'll try to see if I can find any of you when I am back from work. You can contact my MSN on my profile if you like. My character details and guildcard number are on the above post.

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

I was speaking idiomatically.

I play it from time to time. Not everyday, but best way to contact me is through my MSN to call me up for runs.

And the free period of PSU is over Para. :P

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
