Online information please?

[Shadamoo]

I just got PSU for the PC, and I was wondering about the whole online thing.

How much is it a month, because from September onwards I'd only be able to play at some weekends, so Im wondering whether its worth paying for the online mode.

Also...I know this sounds dumb, but what can you do online? I mean, are there just random levels you can take, like in PSO?

Thanks

you know, sega wants money, so online must be interesting to ppl that play psu.
from what i heard, online is really worthed and improves the game alot, offline may be boring i beleive.
others may give the "online features"

Basically you can do most everything about the game you do offline online, but are able to join up in full partys and select the Rank(difficulty) of the mission. There is also the online story missions that continue the game from where the normal offline PSU story ended.

The expansion for PSU comes out later this year, i think it was around November for the US, not sure about EU. The monthly fee is currently $10.

Offline is very weak.

Well Online has lot of extra features at is it said in the topic.

- Featured Weapons for the expert classes (Like Axes, Grenade Launchers, Cards, etc.)

- Featured to has expert classes (Some of them evolved versions of the basic classes that a lvl 1 expert is weaker than a lvl 10 base but like 2.3 times stronger than the basic in lvl 10, and some hybrids, and a featured class that is called protranser, that it gameplay resemble a lot to CASTs of PSO).

- Party limit is up to 6 and not 4.

- Party missions.

- Difficulty levels (Better known as mission ranks).

- Room Organization.

- Access to the story mode of PSU Episode 2. (The new upcoming title Ambition of the Illuminus is better known as Episode 3).

- 1 or 2 events monthly.

- All stages can be playable from lvl 10.

- Extra clothes and parts for character customization.

- Human has more features than in extra mode (Even if people still dont agree with that).

- Partner Machinery Can be upgraded farther than the GH 4X0 stage.

Compared to other mmorpgs

- Better buddy system.

- Community is more friendly and social (Compared to a big part MMORPGs).

- Better trade system.

- Compared to the mayority of mmorpgs. This is not an RTS View Mouse only game. But like PSO, mouse doesnt work for anything in this game (Why the pointer?)
