Title: Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst (FREE MMORPG)

Anyone play this? I love it because, you guessed it by the title- it's free (as it runs off private servers). It's real timed based, trigger action, so no waiting!

Tons of people to play with online, I saw the player log count at 400+ already- so all you need to do is install! Play it! And take a screen of your character and post it!

Never played BB before, but played the hell out of the one for the Gamecube.

I'm hoping that there's no lag. Maybe I'll d/l it later today. Just got out of WoW so it won't hurt to give this a try.

That was lol. I totally kept dying and meow had to save my ass. Sorry meow. Next time we team up I'll save your ass!

The controls are fucking awkward. Like you cant aim so i'm blasting straight out in the air. And the overall keyboard shortcuts and things are pretty weird, but fuck me, that game is FUN!

Ahh, you two are rangers too? Maybe I should've leveled a force instead.

The game is pretty fun so far. Does take me back to the GC days of PSO.

If i start a mmorpg, i won't be able to disconnect from this (and so won't be able to graduate ? :lol:)
But it seems really cool.

@limit: we need to get on sometime- when do you usually get on?

@ten: well its not really a MMORPG. It's simple really. Not hardcore like FFXI.

anyway, heres a screen of sev and my (Ivy) in game characters. let us know if any of you guys got it, so we can start a hunting group together!!

Title: Re: Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst (FREE MMORPG)
Post by: Sev on October 10, 2008, 01:47:15 PM
Oh mugen don't worry. There'll be more "wtf :?" moments. Like when me and meow partied yesterday. Fuck i was lost, and sometimes i was like walking and then suddenly just died coz of whatever.

Game is hilarious tho, with all the colors and dolphins on drugs and dragons, and whatnot. And the chat of course. Oh and I'ma post some pics later of my awesome ranger when he's doing some epic cool poses.

Pro tip: Play on levels with monsters balanced to you.

-"Nice guns ivy"

Making sure if meow has a penis or not. And again. And i tried to see what's in limits pants. I think i'm lucky that i kinda missed. Who knows what hides there. :O

At the end of the day we did good. Killed some monztars and leveled and shit.

I'm pretty sure all 3 live in different time zones(though I don't know where limit is from)

It all depends if you care about sleep I think. :lol:

Post by: limitbreaker02 on October 12, 2008, 01:15:22 PM
Damnit Sev, he wouldn't stop touching me!

Heh I don't know where the other two are from, but it seems to work out so far.

But yea it was really fun [dying all the time] and we gained a few levels through some old fashioned grinding (looks at meow... :on thumbb: )
Title: Re: Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst (FREE MMORPG)
Post by: tenkei on October 12, 2008, 08:56:58 PM
aw wtf, wheres the group pic with me from a couple days ago?
Title: Re: Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst (FREE MMORPG)
Post by: boykun on October 13, 2008, 02:44:08 AM
So I'm having massive troubles just getting the game to start. Installation runs fine, and I have no problems after putting in the patch.

However, when I run the game and it starts updating, I get errors like,
(http://d.imagehost.org/0055/psoerror.jpg)

and then my scanner thinks shpsobb.exe is a virus,
(http://d.imagehost.org/0733/psoerror2.jpg)


Can anyone help? Anyone else having the same problem?
Title: Re: Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst (FREE MMORPG)
Post by: StreakInTheSky on October 13, 2008, 03:19:53 AM
:lol: I had the same virus problem, change to avgfree. :P And then re-install.
If you still get problems you might want to dl the installer again, as it might be corrupted or something.

My problem is that the programs shortcut won't open the game, I click it and it has the "updating online.exe" thing and when it disappears nothing happens, I have to go in my program files if I want to open the game. Does anyone else experience that problem?
Title: Re: Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst (FREE MMORPG)
Post by: boykun on October 13, 2008, 04:01:55 AM
Ah, so it is the scanner preventing it, I see.

I have that problem with the shortcuts too, actually. I had to go to the game's folder to run it. Yours does launch, though, right?

Title: Re: Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst (FREE MMORPG)
Post by: meowchi on October 13, 2008, 04:04:33 AM
Yeah, I have to manually open it from the folder- using online.exe . It launches though - no problems other than that.
Title: Re: Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst (FREE MMORPG)
Post by: boykun on October 13, 2008, 05:30:38 AM
Okay, I switched back to avgfree.  I'm ran online.exe from the program folder, and the game updated fine. It gets to the splash screen thing, I still can't get the game to launch. When I click 'start', the window closes, and nothing happens. If I try it again, I get the "updating file shpsobb.exe", but it gives me an error saying "cannot create file shpsobb.exe".


Title: Re: Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst (FREE MMORPG)
Post by: meowchi on October 13, 2008, 06:09:55 AM
hmm, is this the torrent or the megaupload link dl?
Title: Re: Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst (FREE MMORPG)
Post by: boykun on October 13, 2008, 07:37:42 AM
Megaupload off the site.

I looked through the forum and found a different installer from the one that's on Megaupload. I'll try reinstalling it. Hopefully it'll work.

Edit:
Didn't work. Still getting the same problems.

I got this working just a few hours ago. The problem I had was different from boykun's, though.

So, is anyone on right now?
Title: Re: Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst (FREE MMORPG)
Post by: meowchi on October 13, 2008, 07:14:37 PM
boykun: it sounds like you have a problem connecting to the server? cause that's the file the client updates and downloads each time i start the launcher... do you have a firewall turned on?

Ayabie: best way to see if anyone is on now is to go to the iirc chat. Usually people tag their nicks, like meow|PSO, sev|PSO, ten|PSO, etc...
Title: Re: Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst (FREE MMORPG)
Post by: Sev on October 13, 2008, 08:47:34 PM
Lol meow. I've never ever changed my nick to Sev|PSO. But since you asked the other day, i will do that hence on, for you.

To clarify it: Yes, for some reason you get the map_data error message if you don't start from one of the executables in the folder. I also noticed the game adds shortcuts and yet an executable file when you launch it. :? Removing this did not give a satisfying result.

Anyone playing this with a controller pad? Obviously SEGA didn't even bother remaking the controls in their port of the game, and it's still making me go crazy.

/me turns on meow's firewall
HOT!!!!

tenkei: meow never told me the game don't save its own screenshot but you just take a print screen. So all the pics I took that day are long lost. :( Remember that people. If you take a screenshot, make sure you paste it in your favorite image editor (my case mspaint) before taking another. lol.
Title: Re: Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst (FREE MMORPG)
Post by: boykun on October 14, 2008, 03:20:58 AM
I finally got it working, thanks meow. Did a fresh install and turned off firewall.

Finally played it for a bit.

Made a warrior guy.

Got to lvl 5 but everything got really hard and I kept dying. :lol:

And to fix the shortcut problem, just make a new shortcut to "online.exe" Thought it wouldn't work cause the old one was a shortcut to the same file, but it did.
Title: Re: Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst (FREE MMORPG)
Post by: meowchi on October 14, 2008, 09:57:43 AM

So to join up you just have to be in a game with me and I can invite you into the team, and you'll get the icon plus more bonuses the more we play together as team members (like sharing rare items, ability to buy them with team points etc) also from the start you'll have access to the dressing room where you can change your characters clothes (for like a huge price as a far as I remember, lol)
