Raids: what are those?

Vegas is puuuuuure garbage. Just a waste.

Tokyo is nice but these levels really have gone backwards in visuals...so basic. But at least it's much more playable than Vegas. I was hoping it would be an extension of the Vegas from the ultimate Quest but no it's some really bootleg environment with all kinds of errors with enemies not appearing or hiding in trees. The enemies are....just dumb. I don't understand what that level exists at all.....it's just terrible.

One of the big negatives on Tokyo in Vegas is that they didn't leave them to be an open field. The collect point structure means that sometimes you will only be in the level for all 5 mins. Where's the normal free roam?? Sigh. And the amount of enemies that spawn is WAYYYYYYYYY less.

And where's the drops? Even 10* drops are barely occurring, even though they are not usable except crushing or trade.

All that's left is crafting ...which is another bizzarely complex system. My love for just running levels killing stuff and looting is...broken? Right now I just don't know what to do.

• The 'new' skins and other items are all over the shops. The rising 3 weapons are so ugly and underpowered too.

Yeah this update so far...is kinda lame. I need cool stuff to chase, and juat finding those is a headache. The mission pass also is empty. Help!!!

tbqh i kinda get this feel. I really want to love ep4 more but its becoming increasingly hard to do so

While we're at it. The ridroid quests (and the ridroid in general) are absolutely atrocious. The controls are overly clunky for absolutely no reason and the hit detection is extremely questionable. Why was this implemented in the way that it was? Are clunky controls and poor hit detection seen as good design choice in japan?

Im genuinely curious.

But thats kinda the point. Its where we disagree anon. I think its objectively horrific. PSO2's mechanics dont exist in a vacuum. Its not like there is not other inspiration to draw from...

Tbqh the direction these updates are taking the game is really making me wonder if the designers even thought of trying to make certain aspects 'fun' at all; and not just monumental wastes of materials / meseta, SG, AC sinks.

This has got to be some of the worst crafting implementation ive seen out of any MMORPG in the past 20 years. Even everquest one's system is better than this desu

See screen shot; the intended values for the custom disc are reflected incorrectly. Minus 6 PP is actually raising the cost by 4 (instead of lowering by 6) and the +% damage is not actually reflecting the proper increase.

I really wish Sega would actually care about their NA players like they do their JP players.

I would like to also add (regarding 815 specifically). The error code popup is horrendously designed as it will constantly spam you with just the generic 815 message if you have any auto chat enabled at all. The dialogue box can also overlap itself multiple times which leads to weird interactions if you're out in the field (will cancel attacks / skills etc for multiple seconds or longer at a time).

The error code also lists no duration; lists no reason; and lists no explanation of whatever it is or does. It also doesnt tell you whatever the offending SA or statements were; so it isnt really possible to divine what the system / person / or GM found fault with. (Assuming the content is more nebulous and not directly like, 'heres a picture of a dick')

And I am pretty sure you can acquire a chat ban by just having multiple people report you (assuming an alliance doesnt like you; or you can get multiple friends to report someone; the system will just auto flag with enough reports it seems).

Ironically enough; doesnt seem to happen to the meseta bot spammers at all. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

@OneWingAngel87 Pretty sure it can be due to anything; really. Just depends on what someone in power finds 'obscene' or 'offensive'. Ive been chat banned for posting gay / trans themed SA / conversations. Sega doesnt like gay stuff. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

@HarmlessSyan I am both saddened and smiling. Ty.

@Ranmaru Oh I dont mind teaching; but like. Just earlier I had people that were dying to Gwandas. I dont know how you can die to a Gwanda multiple times on XH. How do you help someone that literally cant play at the level that they need to be playing at?
