Ah King posted this at The Arcade:
PSO Blue Burst Supposedly there will be more info on this on April 5th What could it be??? EDIT: I found some more info on this on PSOW: PSO: Episode 4 Announced "In a sudden and rare press release, ST has revealed the next and final installment of the PSO series! We have the full excerpt of this exciting news! This new volume of PSO will feature a continuation to the storyline that is already present as well as new items, new weapons, new stages, new costumes and 3 brand new classes. Currently planned for GC only, Episode 4 will feature server side saving features. The player limit per game has also been increased to 12 people. Needless to say, we're more than just excited. Don't forget to read more!" Obviously the PSOW post is an april fools joke.. the blue burst thing however is still in question --d-_-b -------------------- |

Guess this is what the GM's are going to look like in-game. Hey wait a minute. These models have been around since v2! -------------------- "Computers are incredibly fast, accurate and stupid.

Hey your right. I recall seeing early concept models of those guys back when Version 2.0 came out for Dreamcast. I believe I saw the picture in that old pso site called mamek. I dont have the link anymore so i cant get there. But I recall them still having that pic. Along with the HUnewmen and RAmarl and FOcast too.
I recall seeing those recently and just thought they where early renditions of our moredn day FOmars. now I see the rabbit hole goes deeper. I just Hope sega brings these new areas over to the Gamecube. It would be so awesome! 8D >.> <.< -------------------- "Brotherhood asked for no friendship, only loyalty.

I'm guessing the concept idea for a GM was around during the Dreamcast days. Infact, that model was around during the ver1 days.
I guess Sega was too cheap to fund the idea, so it was scrapped. Now close to 3+ different PSO remakes later, combined with massive cheating, and hacking, ST probably convinced sega to fork over the dough for this. If PSO had server side saving, I would actually still be playing it now. I did renew my GC PSO hunters lisence, so be on the look out for me anyway. |

I'll guess I'll bump this again
I finally got around registering my game ID and as I speak, I am (slowly and painfully) downloading the game (beta). I just visited the official site and they have actual rendered areas. I dunno if its CG or in-game but it looks nice. whooaaamg! and besides... PSU isn't coming anytime soon. -------------------- |

After a bunch of trial and errors registering and a bunch of *ahem* program downloads...
After like hours and hours of downloading... and like 15-30 mins of patches, I FINALLY got to playing the game. Blue Burst Beta Get!! After slaying some wolves and boomas. Lobby. The lady that keeps on giving... New NPC. Loading up some quest I don't know about One of my favorite chat symbols in PSO. I had to make one. Nothing really new so far (that I have experienced anyway). Though I really want to try the Team thingie whatever they called it. The game looks exactly the same as the GC running on Pro-scan. It's probably a bit sharper maybe. Anything new I'll update... or I'll just steal some news from other sites -------------------- |

Holy shit, is that TEN shortcuts for spells, traps, items, etc??? AWESOME!
Those high res fonts look really nice too... Do you know if the beta will allow you to access the new area with the piggies? -------------------- |

Those screenshots I took are in 16 bit color 800 x 600 resolution.
I ran 32 bit color with 1024 x 768 resolution and it looks nice! But it's sorta an overkill for my PC so I had to tone it down afterwards as it froze my PC. Is it me or is Irene looking a bit more umm detailed? And yea, you can assign shortcuts to those umm 10 shortcuts. I don't know how to set it yet but you DO use the number keys to use the shortcuts. And from what I seen so far, you can format your screenname to a specified font. It's either that or something is really wrong with my PC. In addition, you can set a font for display in-game. The list of fonts are pretty limited but its alot for PSO. Chatting is a bit odd since you have to press the space bar first to bring up the text input window. I haven't gotten past Forest yet since you can't really access it offline. Online, its a killer since theres a bunch of enemy spawns... at least that is if you're playing solo. Anyone want to help? From what I've read, you have to complete some quests in order to unlock additional areas. So I'm not sure if you can access the new areas in the beta. lv30 is now required for Hard Mode. And if you guys didn't read up on it, the team leader can kick people out the team, give a member the team leader status, and among other stuff. Theres also this team flag thing. Basically, if you have a clan or something, all your clan members can have an icon of your choice right next to their names. Pretty awesome. -------------------- |

Interesting stuff. Might be worth looking into later on down the line. The new features sound pretty cool.

Those new leadership features sound great, I know people have been asking for stuff like that since the first PSO. I may actually want this game if it drops stateside...

Wow man thats pretty swank. I cant wait to see those new areas. I would be cool if we could all team up again and start from scratch. Lvl 1 is alawys fun. Im guessing thise means some downtime from Gamecube pso

Leveling is alot faster and harder because of the enemy spawns. Sure, normal mode is ok but when you load up those quests they have now, it will seem that all of them are like Endless Nightmares or a very bad map of C-Mode. I did the 1st quest for Caves and the last room, Nano Dragons kept spawning. There were only the 2 of us in the team. Oh I met with Ah-King of Ragol.com fame and he showed me some interesting stuff. RAGOLS Clan! Interesting pic because he assigned me the clan leader lol. Some news bits and rumors: I have not confirmed this but if you die, you lose experience. What I can confirm for the beta is you don't lose money if you go back to Pioneer 2. About the different fonts, it seems it only works on the menus. Team flags can be purchased with points. As of now, I have no idea how to get points. Not really new news but theres server side saving. Which means, if your comp freezes or whatever, you don't lose your stuff. This is Donkey signing out from Ragol. See you next time! Don't worry AC9, there's always cmode for me on the GC =) -------------------- |

Downloading the game right now. If I'm lucky, I'll probably see some of you tomorrow.

Hmm...this does seem pretty interesting...
From what I've read, you have to do a bunch of quests in order to progress to new areas or something (instead of just normally going through every level). And that leader stuff sounds uber cool. You idiot n00bs try to ruin my games all the time? Not anymore! Your ass would be gone! Heh...that would be great... -------------------- PSO...still alive and kicking |
