Phantasy Star Online 2 (Xbox One Closed Beta) |OT| Beta tested in the future
- Thread starter Zeta Ori
- Start date
Yeah,according to the OT,there was suppose to be one at 4 EST but nothing...I think they changed the schedule...I only have 1 done damn...I want that DC mag...maybe tonight.
So I switched from Ranger to Gunner right after getting through the prologue but, even though it says I'm a Gunner, I can't figure out how to switch to twin machine guns or the skill bar for it. I only have access to the assault rifle and a gunblade. Anyone know what I need to do?
I forgot the exact sequence of menus but you need to have some TMGs in your inventory and set a weapon palette (at least that's what they're called on the JP version) and assign the TMGs to one. If you press start and go through equipment then you should see the option for the weapon palettes
So I picked up several great weapons but I lack the DEX for it. How do I up the DEX for my character?
Pretty sure they added all Sunday also now...
EDIT: my bad it ends at 11:59 PST today.

Usually you get most of your DEX off the stats given by a subclass. Some classes also have skills you can put points to (Ranger, Braver, Bouncer), but you shouldn't put more points into those than necessary to progress in the skill tree as the extra DEX doesn't contribute much for the points better spent in other skills.
I think a couple classes give a DEX bonus if they're 75 and you pick up a title for them that gives you the class bonus
That urgent quest was super easy, but then again there were a ton of us smacking the hell out of it lol
Three different ones, you can't just do the same one three times unfortunately.
Bummer I'll have to try and catch the other urgent quests
I see the big Thrash can but I didnt figure out how to throw stuff in there yet lol...so I do discard if I see the item on the ground is better...
So if I did a craddle of Darkness this morning and do the one tonight it wont count as 2...? just did the Automaton,could not figure out how to jump on top but killed some stuff on the side.
I think I read something about being able to buy it in an AC shop or something? I'm assuming that's where real money will come in eventually.
This is wrong, you have to do 3 events at different times, aka if you did cradle of darkness at 3 different time slots it came up, that would count. You cant do the same event multiple times in the same time slot as that only counts as 1 quest.
Damn, just sank 7+ hours into PSO again haha.
Seems like plenty of content but also way too many layers of stuff upon stuff. So easily lost.
Also, despite it being fun, after the years of waiting, I so wish we had a nextgen PSO game. Lots of really clunky weird stuff in PSO2, despite me really enjoying it.

If anyone wants to jump in and doesn't have Gold, don't worry, I don't have Gold and I've been playing the beta without any issues.
Yup, I did a 7 hour session last night/this morning.
Super Fun, but knowing it's ending at midnight makes me go meh, I'll just wait for the release now.

I can't even imagine what could be worse than this. Not that it bothers me that much, it just seems so random so far.
We need a psa when the events are happening.
I'll be playing the forest map and then there is announcement to go to the lobby or whatever. You go there and no special events are happening. The hell. Shit is confusing.

They start announcing them 15 minutes before they start. The next one starts in a few minutes.
Any live streams of the English Quna concert? I'm not really one for idol stuff, but I heard they dubbed the song too, so I'm interested in hearin git.
So did they dub the scenes from episode that didn't make it into the streamlined versions they replaced them with? In the original you can still see them from your room. The revamp cut out the random stuff like Risa shooting at you or Furier talking about the Lilipans, right? And the Aki/Dragon subplot?
It's better than when you originally had to find markers in the random fields to trigger those cutscenes.
I can see why that would be annoying, but to be honest I think I'd prefer that.
A big part. There's dozens with seasonal ones and new ones being added all the time, and they happen every few hours.
Pretty much my feelings exactly.
Put over 1,000 hours into the GCN version over dial-up way back when, and adored it. A Top Ten game for me, even if I know it was clunky and I have rose-colored glasses on some 20 years later.
But man, after a heck of a hiatus, this feels so good. It's that classic PSO atmosphere - the graphics, the music, the 80s-future-synth vibe. Fun enemy designs. Over the top weapons. That constant hunt for cooler loot. Jump-in, jump-out multi with randoms. It's all here and it's still a lot of fun. I put more time into PSO2 in the last 24 hours than I have into video games, period, this year. This just scratches an itch no other game does.
But man, can you tell this was made in 2012 and even then just an iterative update to PSO Eps I & II. Lots of clunky designs, and whoo boy are the menus and systems kind of a cluster. And then there's the combat - the chaos of the urgent events is kind of cool - but it really did feel like it quickly devolved into button mashing, and it's easy to get carried by a guy that jumps in 10 levels above you. All the chaos is certainly neat at first, but it's already starting to lose me.
Curious how "methodical" or "strategic" this game gets at later levels. I found myself getting lost a BUNCH these last ~10 hours - with little understanding of what to do - and yet, I still never died or missed out on the EXP/weapons/drops.
In the Japanese version you can increase the number of slots from the initial 50 to (iirc and if it hasn't changed) 150 with real money. It's a one time purchase.
Thank God! I really enjoy it other then that. Didn't play a lot because we forgot to register my wife but when it launches I could see us spending a lot of time with it.
