<P align=center><IMG alt="" hspace=0 src="http://ragol.warcrafttavern.com/uploads/news_images/BBBClose.jpg" align=baseline border=0></P><P>The official PSO Blue Burst community site, <A href="http://www.psobb.com">www.psobb.com</A>, have stated that the full version of Blue Burst will go live on June 13th, and with the following new content:</P><LI><EM>Episode II is coming soon with all new Lab Quests and Difficulty modes. </EM><LI><EM>Take on any player in Battle Mode for some PvP action. </EM><LI><EM>Cooperate with friends to tackle Challenge Mode. </EM><LI><EM>PC-exclusive Episode 4 debuts on U.S. servers featuring new enemies, new environments, and amazing new items. </EM><LI><EM>Updated Quests and all new GM run events!</EM> <P>Does this mean Episode 4 will debut from launch? An exciting prospect, but I should think all Blue Bursters will first have to clear the Episde II Lab Quests! Also interesting&nbsp;are the "updated quests and all new GM run events". It would be likely that many of the old PSO quests are added (such as the Endless Nightmare series, and maybe even the well known 'Towards the Future' quest), but hopefully we'll see many new Blue Burst&nbsp;missions too. The GM run events could be anything, from small battle mode&nbsp;matches to chair races, so let's keep our fingers crossed that they're fun!</P><P>As was reported two days ago, the beta was supposed to close on the 9th of June, but the date given on the official site is now June 13. Have they given us a small extension, knowing we wouldn't be able to put up with that three day wait between beta closing and the real launch?</P><P>I hope to continue meeting many of you Ragol.co.uk Blue Burst players online, it's been great fun so far, and with the added features from the game's full launch, will surely get better still!</P></LI>

Any idea if we'll need to install a new client, or is it OK to just get an update for our existing beta clients?

[mr_shoe_uk]

I should think we'll just need to download a patch through the menu. I don't even think it will be very big, as apparantly all the episode 4 etc. files are already installed, we just can't access them yet.

hey Shoe, will the 14 day trial be completely free? I mean, I won't have to give my credit number prior to the trial?

As well as being the launch date, it has been announced that the AOL cup will end on June 13th - which sucks as I was hoping to use the quest for really good EXP and some decent rares in Vhard. Ah well.

[mr_shoe_uk]

Yeah, shame the AOL cup will be over by then, would've been really good for rares and exp on v.hard and ult!

I'm not sure, but I'd guess you will need your billing information to get the 14 day trial period. Still, you didn't need it for the beta, so that's just a guess, could be wrong.
