Also another thing is the GM's said multi account was ok on NA so maybe those players are transfering weekly meseta.

Best resale I got on NA was buying some SG socks and selling them for 100mil. On JP best resell I got was buying a miqo'te tail for 50mil and reselling for 500mil

Expert matchmaking is really nice when the leveling gets way easier later in the game. When someone can get 85 in a day or 2 they don't really understand the game. No idea if NA leveling pace will reach that though.

But I agree if the game is different like PSU was NA will get left behind. I think PSU was 2 months behind to start then 2 years behind at the end. Trust me you really dont want it to be different like PSU was.

I mean best case scenario is NGS is one server since you can't trade pso2 items in ngs.

Some people don't want others creeping on them.

Also Turkey rappy's are coming so it's VERY likely they will also be in NA

Another thing is we got the new JP roadmap and know NGS isn't happening in January or February.

Question? If you know the answer.

Is New Genesis exclusive to NA or is JP getting it before NA?

Its global launch for the 3rd time.

Since NGS is global launch I'm guessing everyone will be on the same page then/maybe before. I can't imagine them making NA that much different since it is just a clone of JP with some differences and content that is not "unlocked" yet. I think the limits of unique content will be exclusive cosmetics/colabs and maybe NPC's and lobby's. I don't see them making exclusive quests unless its is a modified version of a seasonal for some US Holiday like 4th of July.

Also just FYI knowing ahead isn't exactly a NA issue as JP has livestreams that show off new content ahead of time. Along with people looking through the game files and spoiling stuff months before release.

Overall i'd say spoiling isn't exclusively a NA issue it's just there's more people that are able to spoil it by just looking up story/info online from the JP servers.

Just going to mention JP only has Forrest Caves and Coast that were added after episode 4.

@FANtasyStarOnline said in The player store being down is pretty huge:

I read that some players on JP found a way to hack Player stores to get items without paying. Sega didn't want players losing items so they shut it down. I guess Sega was f-ed either way.

That seems unlikely since most high price items are not bought out on JP. i would think "Top items" would be the first to go but they are still there by checking item price on the item.

The running theory is that people were duping items with the shop.

On JP Val weapons were the easy part, I guess everything is easy now that you can buy the weapons.
