It's come to our attention that Apple has removed most if not all unofficial 4chan browsing apps from the iOS App Store. Unfortunately due to their policies, it's unlikely that they will be re-added, or that an official app will come to the App Store.

As part of our HTML5 code overhaul, we added a spiffy mobile view that works great on iOS and Android devices. Just access any of the boards as you normally would, and it will load automatically. You can also disable it via a link a the bottom of the page. While this is not a 100% replacement for a native app, it's a start, and fortunately Apple will support file uploads in iOS 6 which is due out this fall.

Enjoy!

I'll let you know as soon as I finish downloading. It seems a lot of the other bros are too busy playing.

Til then I'm just dicking around in character create.

It's far too easy to make traps in this game.

Is everything Japanese?

The game is entirely in Arabic.
>>
>>8033538
Yeah its all gooked out.

Honestly, if you have any form of memory, you'll learn pretty easily what goes to what.

The weapons and armor all have clearly displayed number values and star rarity, so it's pretty easy to determine everything you need to know. Follow the quest translation in the pastebin, it's pretty accurate.

From the Sega logo onwards, my game lags like crazy.
How do I fix this?
>>
Does anyone know how to stop the terrible lag from when the game starts up?
I can't even create a character because it's so bad.
>>
So any word on release/beta end?
>>
>>8033739
turn shaders off..
>>
>>8033708
I think I'll give it a go then. I've been meaning to teach myself Japanese. Are they ever going to translate it to master race englash?
>>
Are the graphics supposed to look shitty? I mean it's a big upgrade from PSU but it's still kind of lacking.

Also, does this have any multiplayer missions after the singleplayer shit?
>>
>>8034238
"Singleplayer shit" you mean the tutorial? Then yes, all missions are multiplayer.

>>8034238
I have no idea how it works, but every mission I sign up for ends having several players in it.

That's just the Character Creator, I still have about 3 hours of downloading to go for the actual game.

You can download the character creator seperate and make chars there. It has an English patch.

Just finished registering. Is there a better, more faster download for the game itself? A torrent, perhaps?

I never had lag in anything but the combat. I found that it got really bad when multiple people were in the same area, especially Japs. Once they left it was back to normal.

Is this going to get localized at all? I want to re-taste Phantasy Star's "child with down syndrome on crack" quality storytelling.

>>8037524
Fuck the storytelling, this game's combat puts TERA to shame.

I've never had this much fun with a ranged class.
>>
>>8037742

Yeeeah... But I am not touching it if it remains Jap-only. MH Frontier is a good example of why it is a bad idea.

>>8037831
Oh, I'm just using this as a time killer until GW2. It seems great for that purpose atm. Banking on a PSO game for longevity is not the most intelligent move.

Every time I do well on the client quest time trials, I get horrific lag towards the end and it fucks me. So much sadness.

So, I just go onto Ship 4. Does that mean we're all using Ship 4 again for /vg/ bros?
>>
>>8033290
It brings back the fun of pso while bringing in the innovations brought on by current gen.

Will it impact the industry at all?
Fuck no, but its a good romp and great time killer with your friends.

It gets four rappies out 5.37 rappies

For the matter board, do I have to do EVERY quest on here to get to the next area? Im so sick of the forest, im lv11 and I outlevel everything in it.

How are you bros with sword gear holding up? Been wondering how it does compared to Part+Lance gear now that I have Step Attack and JC.
Probably going to go with Sword gear but it is kind of worrying that swords are 1/10 the cost of wired lances and 1/5 the cost of partisans.

Is the english patch out yet?

You can mess around with your mag in your menu (F1). It's under the first category all the way to the left, third one I think.

No.

Why the hell can't I get the game to run in fullscreen? I've tried everything in the options. VirtualFullScreen doesn't work, either.

Do Wired Lances count as Melee or Ranged? They raise your Mag's Melee, but, well, they technically ARE a ranged attack.

is there a way to buy weapons or are they drop only?

just because they have long range doesnt mean they dont count as meele

its not like you are thowing the weapons, picking them up again afterwards

Okay guys, my mouth is open, the spoon is over there, you know what to do.

1) What is the "Launcher" I keep hearing people talk about referring to a Ranger. Apparently its OP? I'm a level 7 ranger, what steps do I need to take to become OP?

2) How do I allocate stats into the skill tree and where is it? The skill tree automatically popped up after my first few missions (little circles I could click on) but it hasn't popped up since I hit level 4. I feel like I'm missing something because I haven't seen any skill tree's since level 4.

3) How are people leveling so fast? I've been neckbearding since the night the beta wen't live doing missions that are appropriate for my level over and over and I'm level 7 at this point.

4) How do I get better weapons and new abilities? I have been using the same weapon for a while now and I'm getting no new abilities to put on right click and shift+click

5) English patch fucking when? I will donate to whoever is working on it.
>>
I can't seem to do any quest past the lvl 7 one.
I'm lvl 7 myself now. Shouldn't a new one have opened up?
I think I have to do one of the client orders to progress but I'm not sure which one and what I have to do for it.
>>
Where are all the English speakers?
>>
>>8058073
1) A rocket launcher. You can buy one in the weapon store if you are in a hurry.

2)Skill tree can be accessed at the place where you change classes, the dude in the middle of the lobby, opposite the clinic with all the not so hot nurse ladies.

3)I'm guessing its the forest exploration mission or emergency missions. As to how to unlock those, read the FAQ.

4) Enemies drop discs you can eat to gain abilities. You can also buy the basic ones in teh weapon shop.

5) No idea, stop asking.

Sword gear is FUCKING AMAZING.
It makes swords go from shit tier to HOLY shit tier.
Basically, there's (from what I know of) two attacks that you can hold the button down to charge them. The upper slash one that knocks enemies into the air, and the spinning one that knocks enemies back. It takes five seconds to fully charge, and they're really fucking strong when you let go.
Those skills are sort of useless because it takes 5 seconds to charge and you can dish out more damage by just attacking normally.
What sword gear does is it reduces that charge time from 5 seconds to ONE second.
It's pretty useless when outside of boss fights, but during bosses it's absolutely amazing.

Technical question here, if I may:
Is it possible to switch from fullscreen to windowed while in game? I ask because I need the game in windowed mode to switch around the IME settings, but I want to play in full screen, so if I could set it to windowed, get that done, then pop it back to fullscreen, that would be ideal.
And no, I'm not going to just play windowed. It looks like ass.

Why do people keep saying Launcher rangers are OP? I guess I'm doing something wrong. First of all the Launchers are dreadfully slow. I understand you can get away with not reloading by air jumping but from what I see the attack speed is slow even in the air (unless I'm doing something wrong?) I'm only level 9 though, or maybe my Launcher just sucks? I've grinded the shit out of it.
>>
>>8072180
the other two things the launcher has going for it is that it can kind of stun enemies with it's normal shot and also it can hit multiple enemies with splash damage.
This means you can continously use left click to keep a whole hoarde of enemies at bay really easily.

Asking again since nobody answered last time. I got PP charge revival and have no idea what to put further points in, so I'd appreciate any suggestions from alpha test veterans. After checking the JP wiki, I've seen that most skills give pathetic gains per point (example: tech charge advance only boosts damage by 1% per point). The only skill that caught my eye was photon flare, which, at max level, boosts my magic attack by 200 points for 30 seconds.

Is there a reason to use JA advance over charge advance? I don't really want to put points in the lightning tree and my ratio of charges to JAs is always:always unless I screw up, does JA advance have better numbers or something

Percent increase is going to be more valuable at endgame probably

>>8081597
Ah, so you just sink money into a weapon until you get +10? How much money did you spend getting that talis to +10?
>>
>>8081702
The problem there is that I never use normal techs. Charged techs cost the same amount of PP as normal, but do twice the damage. Maybe if it took 3-5 seconds to charge, I could see the use of JA and normal tech advance, but charging takes all of one second, so it seems like a waste of PP not to charge techs.
As for bolt tech PP save in particular, again, that's one PP saved per point you put into it. It seems like such a horrible waste when we only have 30 levels worth of points in open beta and 40 in the official launch. I'd much rather put points in one of the tech advance skills than that.
>>
>>8082084
You can just attack charged skills too, you don't get normal tech advance.

How do you just attack with charged techs? I've never managed it.

So, in summary:
RA does no damage,utility takes forever and you can't upgrade any of them by much. traps take forever to get and take forever to reload.
Can RA do anything anymore?
>>
>>8082084
I'm personally getting charged tech boost. PP Save is nice in theory, but the more I use lightning the more I dislike how the spells work besides zonde.
A JA charged tech with -7pp cost is just not going to be beat by a normal tech for efficiency, so I might as well go all out.

>>
>>8082084
Also, after you put your skill tree to achieve PP Save and Tech JA advance, you have jack shit to play with and already have 5 points in bolt PP save, which pushes players to just put the rest of the 5 points there. So that's a huge reason why. IJA Advance is that good? Not 100% sure yet.

The circle will appear after you release a charged tech, just start charging another when it's red like any other.
>>
Saving my sp til light mastery comes out, grants and gigrants are like rafoie and gifoie except better.
>>
>>8082196
Both charge and JA boost skills increase damage by the same %. If you're going to be JAing all your charged techs, you could go either way.

However, I am more likely to fuck up a JA than I am to fuck up a charge. And plus, if you went the PP revival route, your tree is already open for charge boost skills, so you get more boost % per SP
>>
>>8082334
JA boost doesn't give you more damage point for point if you are only counting charged techs unless they've upgraded the % from closed beta when I tried the JA boost.
The only reason to grab it is if you will be using uncharged techs semi-often and already have PP save.
>>
Zonde is really good. It works just like Ra Foie in that it doesn't require any line of sight. Getting bolt PP save might be cool. There's also that other zonde skill that bounces off monsters, great AoE.

Going the bolt tree would not be so bad.

This wiki has the numbers for almost all of the force skills in the クラス・スキル section. Knock yourself out.

>>8082275
That was my thinking, except with photon flare, but the more I think about it, the more photon flare will lose its usefulness in the game's long term. Sure it doubles my current magic attack when maxed, but what about when I'm level 60? It'll probably add 10-20% to my magic attack, and at that point, I'll regret not having picked up the tech charge advance skills instead.
>>
>>8082525
Except I'll have to put 5 points in bolt PP save to make it have the same cost as rafoie, which charges faster because I got PP recovery.

The thing about lightning techs is that they already cost more PP then other spells. Zonde is 25 to rafoie and grants 20, razonde is 26 and is a really shitty radial compared to gifoie, rabarta, and gigrants, and gizonde is really cool and unique and good but costs 27 pp.
>>
>>8082383
Reminding me that I want wind techs and wind mastery.

>>8082525
Zonde is excellent, it's the other skills that I am not a fan of. 3 PP zondes? Fuck Yeah.
Sazonde is extremely powerful and you can get infinite rolling ticks. The problem is that even if I 'stick' it to a weak point on quite a few bosses, it will proc somewhere else when it explodes.
Razonde is great if you use a card to set it up, but is already costly.
Gizonde could be excellent, but ends up being extremely finicky on some targets and isn't cheap in the first place.
>>
>>8082730
It is. It just hangs there until it completes.
>>
>>8082751
If you are going down the ice line, the main reason to do it is to get freeze ignition and freeze booster after PP revival. Unless they have massively upgraded Photon Flare, it was extremely underwhelming. The biggest perk was that it affected buffs and support spells.

Not sure what Freeze Ignition does, but 2000% of something sounds pretty OP. Has anybody experienced any massive damage with this?
>>
>>8082952
If photon flare was weak even in alpha, I'm not bothering. I suppose the only thing I can do now is put a single point in ice and bolt mastery for the 5% bonus in each, then max the charge tech advance skills. As of now, that seems to be the only build with long term viability.

First option twice and then once you get the drop down menus:
All
Weapons
Armor
Body (like your looks)
Consumables
Skill Discs
Crafting Materials
Decorations
Upgrade Stuff

Once selecting one of them the dropdown menu is:
All
Swords
Wire Lances
Partisans
Gunblades
Assault Rifles
Rocket Launchers
Staves
Card Throwers

And the third menu (if applicable) is elemental attribute in order:
All
Fire
Ice
Lightning
Wind
Light
Dark

All this gleamed from trial and error...

You guys should at least learn katakana.

If you rush it in one day, you'll forget everything the next day.

You don't need years for it, but you should at least study for 2 or 3 weeks so that you can at least read Katakana and Hiragana at a decent speed.

Hell, you can practice by playing video games. Pokémon, for example, is written entirely in Hiragana and Katakana (though BW and BW2 have an option for Kanji too), and I'm sure you've all played Pokémon at some point, so you should be able to play it without much problem.

Listen to me buddy. I am a PSO uber veteran, with thousands of hours on multiple level 200's. You'll get more grinders later. It was a good idea to grind your crappy weapon, because now you can kill stuff faster, to level up faster, to get better weapons faster, and to ultimately get your grinders back. Don't listen to the fools that want you to save all your grinders for the rare chance of a good drop. You'll get more. Don't sweat it.

Some quick questions:

Will the open beta close (if so, when?) or will it run straight through to release? Will accounts be wiped at beta end?

How big are all the initial downloads (client and then patches)? How big is the install size?

Can the graphic options be turned all the way down to run on an integrated GPU at low resolution?

Thanks.

So I get the matter board quest where I need to kill the giant dark bee. I repeatedly run the level 5 forest quest because that's where I've seen them spawn the most. After hours I finally get 1, and it doesn't drop the item for me. WHAT GIVES?

Is there a better place to grind for this monster? Also, does having NPC's in your party increase chances of big events occurring?
>>
>>8116557
If I'm correct(probably not), PB parties are parties that try to get the PB bonus, which increase spawn and drop rates. IIRC, you get it by killing loads of shit.

What the fuck man? Granted that my weapon is upgraded to +8, but does being 7 star rare weapon actually make a difference when you grind it? Will the increase in atk be much greater? Because if the increase is tiny, I don't want to waste any of my money
>>
>>8130632

Yes, the rate of the grind is higher than a lower starred weapon, that's why the stars are there in the first place. It used to be more significant, but we're finding 4* 2nd tier weapons now with base attacks that are equating grinded up 7*s
>>
>>8128995

From what I'm told, it's calculated against the enemy's ability stat to help you deal more / take less damage across the board.

That's pretty lame. I guess the only reason to buy 7* rares is just so you can look cool. In which case, asking 100k for one is way too much when there's tier two 4* going for 40k.

You are the worst type of faggot.

Everyone worth their salt knows that emotes of any type can only be used ironically, otherwise they expose you as being an enormous faggot.

Seriously, though. The logic behind that is that jaded individuals aren't interested in things like that. I shouldn't have to tell you this, but people who are openly emotional are not compatible with jaded misanthropists. Guess which type the majority of 4chan is? Here's a hint: Not the openly emotional type.

This is why we have sayings like "no fun allowed", or "I hate fun", because the people here are known to be jaded as fuck, needless criticize things, and ruin everyone else's fun. This has been corrupted into a sort of tradition and very convenient way to tell if a person belongs.

You very quickly have outed yourself in this community, and I seriously doubt that anyone here will want anything to do with you.

If you price your 40 grinders for 5,000 meseta, it will be 5,000 meseta each no matter what.
There's no way to sell them all at once for 5,000 meseta so don't worry about fucking up.

It's like this little device on your arm and you can throw these holographic "card" like things. After you throw one you can charge up a spell, the card will hover, and you can cast it from there. You can cast multiple ones from the same card if you just keep using spells and you can even hit a monster with it and THEN cast a spell.

The device reminds me of Yugioh in a way.

Quite. Spells are chargeable, cards allow you to cast at range, and a lot of the spells work a bit differently. Oh, and PP recovers when you're not casting. Can recover when you're casting too if you get the skill for it.

It's pretty different from PSO, but not that different from the Portable series. PSO2 is much more like PSP2 and Infinity than PSO.
