Revision as of 04:55, 19 November 2006

As Phantasy Star Universe's Network Mode is essentially a mass-multiplayer online RPG (MMORPG), it's not hugely surprising that from time to time it shall receive game updates and content additions.

This page is to list the state of the game's Network Mode as of specific dates, and record the history of what each update achieved. As the game grows in the number of updates (hence, the amount of content) it may become necessary to split details of each update (or each month's worth of) into separate sub-articles.

Maintenance Times

The following is the time when the maintenance will be taking place.

  • Thursday Evening: 11pm to 4am PST (GMT-8)
  • Friday Morning: 2am to 7am EST (GMT-5)
  • Friday Morning: 7am to 12PM GMT (Greenwich Mean Time)
  • Friday Morning: 8am to 1PM GMT+1

    Initial State

    Unlike the other sections, this one makes note of how the game was before any updates were added.

    Date: From 24th of October release (arguably midnight PST) to 16th of November maintenance (from 23:00 to 04:45 on the 17th).

    Flight Destinations

    Unlike all updates following the game's initial state, Network Mode did not allow access to the planet Moatoob in it's initial state. It had the following planets, each with the one specified city and the following flight destinations (when leaving your "My Room"):

    Planet City Destination
    Moatoob Dagora City Central District
    TENORA WORKS Shop

    Missions

    New missions were added to all three planets.

    The Mad Beasts CBA Raffon Meadow: Lakeshore Park Underwater Plant Area Underwater Plant: Temporary Base
    Lab Recovery CBA Underwater Plant: Temporary Base  ??? Raffon Meadow: Lakeshore Park

    Desert Terror CBA West Kugu Desert: Field Base Galenigare Tunnel Area Galenigare Tunnels: Underground Lake

    Other Changes

    • Players have discovered that the Partner Machinery GH-450 now has issues switching weapons. Allegedly despite the switching animation and noise, the weapon remains the same and as such the PM now no longer heals, among other things.
    • As of this update there have been numerous complaints about the PC version of the game experiencing mysterious periods of slowdown, mostly during Parum missions. Some players have noted that this also occurred in the first JP update, though the immediate update after that fixed the issue.
    • Prior to this patch, it has been reported that Hunters on the Xbox 360 version had incorrect stat calculations, making them level-for-level better off than their PC/PS2 counterparts and disproportionately more effective than Xbox 360 Rangers and Forces. This has been addressed in this patch, causing a large amount of unwarranted complaint from Xbox 360 Hunters.
