I only get 2 hours internet time a week. 4 if i really beg. This is shared between me and twinkazz (my twin brother), so i only get 2 hours a week at most. this mean i get 8 hours a month online.
Is it worth playin online and payin £3 ( twinkazz would pays the other £3) for 8 hours (each).
I want to play online, but im unsure as to weather it would be worth it.
P.S: Im begging my parents for boadband, but all ive got are 'maybe' and 'i never said we'd get broadband'.

Why you have restricted times yet have broadband is beyond my belief!

However it is quite worth it! ST actually made it part of the game! You'll notice you've got a seperate CLv for online probobly. There's tournaments and very many friendly people to meet. Though eight hours a month you might not want to. Playing a tournament online is about 30-120 minutes depending on how many players there are. And even with a battle, the least it can take is 15 minutes I think.

It's still worth it, if u have epI and II also, you can play both on the same Hunters licence.
Yeah if u had broadband, why would u have restricted hours?
the community is friendly, and its just a totally different experience to offline.

Basically offline is the people who are alone and out in the cold.
The only thing to worry about online is FSODing (Very rare especially if yu've got broadband) and all the spamming/spammers.

How does broadband make this less likely?
Anyway, offline Episode 3 is really good, but I still really like online, though I probably wouldn't get it with such limited access, as to do almost anything on the game takes ages.

Faster, less-laggy, more secure connection, etc.

If i had broadband i dont think id have restricted times.
The time restrictions are because of the cost of internet dial up ( where as broad band is always on, so it wouldnt matter) and so that i dont disrupt in coming calls (you can be on the phone and use broadband).
Oh, yeh, ive orderd a copy of PSO 1+2!!! Cant wait!! I hope its as good as PSO 3!!!

Broadband doesnt effect being fsoded, its just exactly the same. Its a glitch in the game, not the internet connection
