It still being delayed is still a bad sign. Either way, I've been satisfied with Jap version so I kinda don't care all that much about it.

If the US version comes they gonna IP block that shit.
We don't have enough info to make that assumption. Just because Asiasoft - a company with a record of being very IP block happy - have done it with SEA, doesn't mean it'll happen with the US version.
Even though SEA players were IP blocked when their version started operating, according to someone in PSOW, the same didn't happen for Taiwan players, even though the Taiwan version started operating over a month ago.
Whenever the western version arrives, it's very likely that an IP block will depend on whoever will publish it.

If they did not do that that's money left on the table. Since Sega is about the money they will do that.

Didn't they recently add the option to mutiny if team managers disappeared?
StarCreator

If the leader is inactive for 30 or so days a manager can elect to take over team leadership.
As far as I know, it's impossible to delete your last character off a ship if you are a team leader on that ship. So unless the leader actively disbanded the team, said team probably still exists, albeit without active leadership.
While true, that didn't stop everyone else from leaving. it wasn't a super active team to begin with. The leader leaving was pretty much the nail in the coffin.

In some inner circles and net circles in japan poof is singular slang for breast =O

Isn't "poof" a derogatory term against homosexuals in some culture or something?
There are a lot of weird, esoteric words that are censored. I think the censor file was just a super huge .txt file that they took from some website somewhere and put it in the game because it knows foreign curse words and some words that haven't meant anything in years.
Also "blow" is censored, so you can't actually talk about two of the weapons in the game without getting censored.
It's derogatory British slang for a gay man, roughly equivalent to 'fag'.
That Shunka nerf is ridiculous. I'm doing approximately 2-3x less damage and it's clearly noticeable that we lost a big asset in Loser fights (and MPAs in general). They really need to buff up the other PAs as they're still too weak and so we actually get to use more PAs that are useful. This probably applies to more classes.
StarCreator

Shunka is exactly 40% less effective from what I hear, which really needed to be done because it effectively made braver the sole damage dealing class in the game. The game doesn't need lazy buttons that powerful.
ChickenHunter

Use hatou more, it's always been stronger/better than shunka. No seriously, it requires a tiny bit more effort than shunka does but it can kill things far quicker.
StarCreator

Nothing in the FO and RA buffs came anywhere close to pre-nerf Shunka. I think Ilmegid could use more of a limiter (longer charge time or higher PP cost) but I think the playing field is fairly even as things stand now.

The Shunka nerf might have hurt for those using Br/Hu, but it's been absolute murder for my Br/Te. My damage output is normally way off the other classes, but Shunka did enough to cover over that problem so that I dealt respectable damage and still had all the Techer benefits. I do so little damage compared to anyone else now that I've had to go back to playing solo.
Like I understand it needed to be nerfed because people were using it as a lazy button, but it feels like they didn't consider literally any class combo other than Br/Hu when choosing just how much to nerf the damage by.

Man, that update was hell. Had to kill the Tweaker several times until it finally survived the client update without locking up. (Do I really need to keep the 3 gig story patch rar handy for every friggen client update? What a waste of disk space. A warning would've been nice that the tweaker wipes all patches before updating the client.)
Also, the new(?) infected mothership mission. Augh. Either drown in a bunch of Chrome Dragon adds plus the Quartz Dragon and two Fangs from the emergency trials next door on hard, or one-shot creeps and drown in shitty loot on normal. There is no middle ground. Time for a gear check, I guess.

What's this Shunka you guys speak of that got nerfed?
StarCreator

Katana PA. If you don't know, don't worry about it.
It's not stronger. Shunka did and probably still does more DPS than it. I do enjoy using the other PAs now that the damage is closer to the nerfed Shunka though.
I don't know which RA PAs, but Il Megid and Il Barta do a ton of damage, especially on a WB.
The playing field is just as even as it was pre-nerf. Gunners can easily outdo Bravers now and supposedly Fighters do so aswell when used properly chaining PAs (might just be this specific case). Don't get me started on FOs.
Things could definitely been handled better than just giving in to the whiners and nerfing it just for the sake of.

D: But I'm interested in what it does
Massive amounts of damage. It still does a reasonable amount even after the nerf.
This was the damage it dealt with average stance.

Wow, I'm surprised I never knew of this thing since I've been running Braver for a while now lol

Well, it's a rare PA, so it's not exactly something you will just happen upon unless you run the specific quests where it can drop. But I guess you don't need to worry about that anymore.

You could also buy it in the playershops for [relatively] cheap. There isn't a huge power jump at level 16 so you should be able to do fine with a level 6-10 shunka.

Officially, it gets a patch every 1-3 weeks, almost always during regular maintenance (Tuesday night/Wednesday morning in US time).

Phantasy Star Online 2: Episode 3 is not a card battle game. In some ways, I'm disappointed...
I'm completely out of the loop, but I'm guessing Bouncer as the new class and 2 new weapon classes is new news? bumped link
Yep, it just got announced a few hours ago along with a new planet, casino area and Episode 3.
Azure Phoenix
Member
Ok, screw the Braver nerf, I no longer care. That Bouncer class looks like the perfect class for me, assuming it is a true tech/strike hybrid class. Aerial moves, very high mobility, tech attacks and dual blades? It's like a dream come true. Well, apart from having to grind a main class all the way from 1 to 70 again I suppose.
The July updates look great too, guess I need to start grinding TACOs again to save up ready.

I just used this website to get into the game:
http://arks-layer.com/setup.php
But I only have Window Mode.
Is there a way to get fullscreen?
I already looked into the Support Menu -> Options but could not find anything?!

If you're using Tweaker click on the orb and on PSO options. There should be an option there.
Otherwise if you're using the regular launcher, go to the options and you should be able to switch it on the third tab.
1. first option is windowed
1. second option is fullscreen
1. third option is borderless
2. is your resolution
3. FPS limit
4. interface scale
If you're comfortable with ini editing, you can also set it up there.
It's in documents/sega/phantasystaronline2/user.pso2
Search and change Windows to the following.(Change your resolution to suit yours)

Pretty sure the extra free character slot was for Dewmans, not Bravers. Unless a fifth race is being introduced there is absolutely no reason to offer a third free character.

Oh man, so much time will be wasted, even if I spend half the time in the PSO2 casino as I did in the PSU casino. Hopefully they bring back roulette.

Well there was the discovery in-data for the existence of Beastkin... but that probably would have been announced by now if it were happening at EP3 launch.
