Welp, this not make us look good. I sure hope Sega doesn't use this as a reason to not bring this stateside.

[JaxTH]

SEGA would be retarded to not bring it over because "LOOK AT THOSE WESTERNERS HACKING OUR GAME! SURELY ONLY THEY WOULD DO SUCH A THING!"

[Azu]

I think Sega is smarter than that.

Glad to hear we get an extra two days to play. I've been offline for about a week from PSO2 because I didn't feel like doing the same mission over and over.

Time to be a bigger nerd and play for 48 hours straight.

Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

Well, that blows. I hope this doesn't ruin anything. >.<

I think I've done everything I can in the Beta as of last night. I finished all the Caves missions (the boss in that third mission is a lot fucking harder to fight solo than Rockbear) and the Matter Board. I have also done the Emergency Quest, which is epic and hard as hell. All that's left are the various client orders and maxing out the other classes and the skill trees. I heard about being able to change your class but I didn't learn until last night that it could be done... so easily. O_O I seriously thought you had to buy something from that AC shop to do it. I didn't know much about the skill tree either, or maybe I heard of it but then forgot about it.

Going to make a Force character tonight and try that out. I also have a Human Ranger named SmoothCriminal, who may be in a Youtube video featuring tons of other players doing a flash mob dance. :D Provided the guy who started it wasn't lying to us, that is...

So there's that open beta thing going on now.

[Azu]

Yes, there is. It's too bad they changed the encryption on the files. English patch doesn't work anymore. I honestly hopes Sega's does the right thing and release a English version.

Although I find it fun to play just to test my reading skill, I also hope we do get an English release.

Man I am so jealous of some of my friends playing this game right now. But at the moment I don't have a good gaming PC and just some old laptop. But when I get a new Desktop Tower I'm going to be playing PSO2 like a crazy man, Japanese version or the Westerner version.

[Mecha Sally]

So the full version of the game launched in Japan this week, and comes complete with new areas and lots of other goodies that I don't have the details on since I can't read all the Japanese text. :P Unfortunately for me, I'm on vacation and the internet speed in the hotel is so slow that it's impossible to play. I can't finish a single mission without getting disconnected. >.< Ah well, will just have to wait until I get home.

For those who ARE able to play and are continuing to play after official release, what are your thoughts?

[JinKusiraga]

Well, I've been playing since the CBT, been playing the full game for a few days now. It's been quite a bit of fun, I must admit. The bosses in the exploration missions though... they are rage-worthy sometimes. >.>

I'm actually very curious as to what they'll be adding for new weapons and Photon Arts and such. Some of the new costumes and other things are neat too.

For the record, there is another English patch in the works, but it's taking quite a bit of time.
I've been using this site as a point of reference to get around in the meantime. Hope that those of you that are also playing who are watching for the patch find some use out of it as well.

PSO2 will be released in US and EU in early 2013: http://www.pso-world...lease-pso2-2013

Early 2013? Man that's a long wait. X_X I guess I could play the Japanese version to hold me over until then, but I don't want to get TOO far cause starting over would suck. Regardless, I'm very glad it's getting an English release!

[Azu]

I don't think it's a long wait. Who knows, we might start getting English Closed beta in the next couple of months. Localizations usually takes abut 6 months or so. Depends on the game though.

So after hearing about the international version being released I finally decided to check back in to this thread. I didn't realize that PSO2 had been in open beta for the jp servers. So I've almost got the client downloaded, but can't wait to try it out. I read english speakers have been on ships 2/10, but those are now not accepting new characters. Is there a ship/block that is open that anyone on here has been playing on (hopefully with other english speakers)?
