Damn you guys played all last night. I finished 2.3 last night with Kiroyi and Izumi. So I'm still way behind from you guys. I was gonna play catch up as soon as I got out of classes but stupid sega.
Hahah, I did and it was a success with about a min left on the clock...but my virus scanner popped up before I got a chance to go to the principal. I had fullscreen on so it booted me off and I had to start over again, with Kiroyi and Izumi.

2-3 was fun... I soloed it. Got real lucky- my mag got 100% right at the end and I defeated the last Pan Arm with 2 seconds left on the clock.
I don't see why you're being so critical of SEGA on the Ep2/Hard+ thing yet. It's a beta that's not fully-featured yet. It'll come in the future.

No... but I still think that Sega's just working on implementing the new content, not just holding it back.
The wording you get when you attempt to make an invalid room like that is "Function not available at this time".

My only complaint is how sloppily they've handled this "beta". The content can wait, it's not like I haven't seen it before.
One nice thing I keep hearing though, is that beta characters won't be wiped at release for folks who intend to subscribe.
Also; yay, I got a new error message for once. Server under maintence. At least it's correct now.

Kir: rox, you're gonna stick with this for awhile through retail, right?
Folken: Get a new video card.
Mission based play and guild system rox. Plus they susposedly, yknow, SUPPORT this one.
Man, I'll send you my old Geforce 4 if you want. Not like this takes much to run, just don't go back to the Xbox version and have to deal with the people drawing dicks in the lobby chat. Man, that's just pitiful.

I hear voice chat is one of the reasons not to play it
Alex: Maybe, but here's hoping lots of folks stick to it afterwards. If the attach rate is high you can count me in for sure, but it's already addicting as is, another month or two in the next few wouldnt hurt.

How do I type without always entering japanese characters? I just want the simple english alphabet.
Ok, I just finished soloing for a bit to get back into the swing of things. I've been hanging around Tethys, Block 6 and I've seen a couple GAF teams, but they're locked. Can we set up specific name/pass so people can join late if spots are open?
My current character is a HUcaseal named Kyomi.
My current character is a HUcaseal named Kyomi.
I'm playing, but have yet to unlock anything past the forest, I forgot what the requirements were. I've also been into the Tethys/Block 6 area and seen a few GAF games, played with Oni Links once for a while.
I generally just hate dropping into people's games unannounced. If we set up a fixed time for later tonight (it's currently 2:15pm EST here in VA) maybe we can set one up.
My name is Teiresias and if I make a game for myself I generally just name it Teiresias, haha.

Yeah, I've been crashing like mad. Crashed a few days ago with you guys in the middle of a quest and couldn't re-join.

I hit 30 and entirely beat all the current beta content, so Im not grinding any further. I'll probably just just help folks at make a new character soon.
We always play in Tethys block 6. Seems to be lots of scattered GA folks. We have a team, but it only holds 10 people currently (and is full) due to the fact that we can't get any Rares stuck in normal.

Alex: cool, maybe then I can catch up to you guys and we can all start on Vhard on an equal slate .

To hell with that, Tre. You'll never catch me! NEVER.
In all seriousness though, being a force is fuckin' hard. It's like... trying to buy three thanksgiving-esque meals a day on foodstamps hard. My level eight Force is burning through my level thirty two Hunter's cash reserves, it's nuts.
Des: help me finish 4.4 later. I never wrapped it up.

I'm a lvl 21 Hunter at the moment and I just finished 2-3. My tag is DynamiteJ. I usually name my games Dynamite or DynamiteGAF, so drop on in. I'm new to the game too. It's been a lot of fun so far and I'll pay for it when the beta is over.

You have to go to the principal's office and do all the quests. The game progresses differently than the console versions. There's 3 quests for Forest.
Got a level 8 Ranger named Folken.
Sorry I wasn't so chatty when we played Alex, had a long night and sorta got a headache. Just really happy my PC is stable again. Thanks for the heads-up on the quest rewards, my boobery knows no limits.

Got this over at the official PSOBB boards. All answered by a mod working at Sega. Credits to teknolaiz.
General Game Related Questions
1. Will there be a wipe at the end of beta?

Clumsyorchid:It's important for people on the boards to send us information of these users in game. I cannot be on every block in every ship.

Send in forms describing exactly what is happening online and grab the user's number while you are at it. The number can be found by pressing "Tab" while in game.

I want hard and/or episode 2 now (for free, of course, because I like mooching off of Sega .
It's been awhile since I played (I played v2 offline before), so I forget- was it possible to get the Double Sabre in normal mode? Or am I just doing all these long ruins runs for nothing?

I think no character wipe means your character will remain intact. Items and levels and what not. I'm pretty sure of it, I mean what's the point of a no character wipe if they reset you back to level 1 and take away all your items. Besides name reserve? I think they will be intact, although I'm not 100% sure hahha.
Server maintenence right now. Hopefully they are unlocking the other contents.
