Phantasy Star Online: BlueBlast

Yeah, the problem with mechguns can be the delay after you shoot them, though which can be a pain. They are awesome for murdering things quickly, though

Oh yea totally, shame that you need good accuracy just to get the best out of them, if you dont, then you miss all the time, and that isnt good...

[Jacobthehero]

yeah but, How much?

Well its £5.99 a month in the UK, making it something like...$9 a month in the US? I dont know...

[Moot]

Huh, I thought it would be more than that...

[Toshi]

Nah it isnt, apparantly if you purchase this licence, you are able to use that same licence for the Gamecube version AND for episode 3 too. So its £5.99 to play all PSO games on the different consoles, however, when PSU (Phantasy Star Universe) is released, apparantly that will be a seperate payment...i heard about £13 a month...

[Moot]

..OK so I need to buy myself a GC broadband adapter now

£5.99 for access to all those games doesn't seem too bad...

[Toshi]

Yea it is a good bargain, shame that i'll need a job >_<

The broadband adapter will set you back a few pounds...i think you can pick one up at £35.

[PinkFloydYoshi]

When you say 'all games', does that mean I'll be able to use the same characters I use on PC, on the GC? I thought the GC stored locally.

[Moot]

Ir probably just means you can use the same hunters liscence to access all the games instead of buying different ones.

..Probably

[Graedius]

The BLueBurst servers are entirely different from the hacked, unmoderated, crappy, flawed, freezing PS2/XBX/NGC servers. You cannot interchange them both.

The whole hunter's lisence thing, no, no, no -- that was the Console versions. You don't do that crap anymore.

I'd not get the GameCube version -- it's super hacked, super flawed, and freezes oftenly, more oftenly invoked by other players. It's a hell where you're very vulnerable to accidental deletion and item-loss. Don't do online on the NGC version.

[Toshi]

Ah yea, i remember that, they do something called "Item Duping", which is copying rare items and trading them off, if your an unlucky soul, and accept a "duped" item, it causes your game to freeze while saving, so causing you to lose your saving...its a right bugger if you've spent so much time on a certain character...

[PinkFloydYoshi]

Beta trial has been extended to the 13th June for those who are interested. I don't have to give my card details yet .

They really did that? That sucks. Shows how many foolish morons there are in the world. By the way, Whens someone able to give me a hand with 4-2? I find it difficult to eliminate all those debasers, and that chaos bringer within 30 minutes.

[Toshi]

I need to do that quest dude, i'll help you out on it!

They really did that? That sucks

Yep, they do that, it was published in one of the UK Nintendo Mags...NGC i think? But it was ages ago.

[PinkFloydYoshi]

Anyone by any chance wan't to do 4-2?
I can't do this mission by myself. Just give me a bell over messenger or something.

I and Toshi can't do it either. We got to 4 readings then had 2 seconds on the clock left. We can't defeat all those desabers on our own .

I might request the help of a few people in the PSO community boards on this one too.

Edit: Is anyone playing it after subscription? Am I the only one? Right. Toshi, you enjoyed it a lot, and we had a few good games. Time to throw a subscription your way.

I'm actually fed up of all these strange players with low levels calling me god.

[Graedius]

I'm totally getting it once I have a PC capable of running it -- I apologize that I can't be there now, hahah. I hope you'll still be there when I am -- but in any case.

[Toshi]

Heh, looks like i will be playing it for longer after all...Thanks PFY, even though i disagree with every bit of it, and you know that...

If you tell me you disagree with paying a $8.00/month (5 Pound/month if I'm correct) cost, I will.... guillotine you. You can't beleive how sick I am of hearing that, hahah... that is NOTHING! Don't be telling me you can't pay it --- surely you can muister enough effort to get eight dollars a month, sheesh.

[Toshi]

Unlike most people, i have no job (the reason why i have been so down lately), so paying the fee would be extremely hard for me as i dont have cash of my own, my parents would not be able to pay it for me as they are stingy as hell. So, yes, paying $8/£5.99 a month is tough for me ok?

Besides, i meant disagree with PFY paying for my subscription, i am willing to pay for the monthly fee myself, but not until i have cash coming in.

[Graedius]

Oh, for the love of -- it's... nothing! It can't be that hard! Cut someone's lawn, any menial job for eight dollars! XD Steal it!

I'm sorry, but unless you're like, a prisoner, in a boarding school, or are in some restricting circumstance, you'll never convince me that you can't possibly, in some way muster up that tiny marginal amount of money in a thirty-day period. Hell, you could pay for it if you simply scavenged around, finding twenty cents on the ground every day, hahaha. XD
