You don’t need to do anything. Once the servers are up you just go to a place that you can change blocks and you’re free to swap between pso2-classic and new genesis.

The only thing that isn’t shared is your character inventory, so you have to throw any units or weapons you want to use in new genesis into storage before swapping

Does this include equipped gear?

Or since we're starting at level 1 in NGS would we even be able to use OG PSO2 gear from level 80?

Wrote a macro to left click (mouse positioned over Ship 2) and then hit enter three seconds later. Got back into Ship 2 after about five minutes.

Alright I fixed it. If anyone else has the same issue on Windows 10, it's tied to the display scaling being higher than 100%. Here's the fix:

-Go to pso2.exe
-Right click and select properties
-Go to the compatibility tab
-Select 'change high DPI settings'
-Enable high DPI scaling override

I initially got stuck because I didn't land in the place the "glide to town" quest wanted me to land in and the map marker pointed into the center of town.

I need to take a break now, but if anyone knows of any guides on how to make the NGS faces not look like a pre-teen anime protagonists please let me know. Right now I'm still using my old PSO2 "middle aged" CAST face, but I'd like to figure out how to get the new ones looking acceptably adult-like so I can use all the new customizations.

Are class skill trees are on the same system as the base game, where you either pay $ or wait for a freebie from Sega if you make the wrong decisions? (especially now, early on, when guidance seems thin on the ground)

Go to Magnus Mountain and go to the areas marked with E or T, the PSE bar on the top left will fill up, when it hits max it goes into a burst

You have to get through the first initial tutorial and then play the 2nd tutorial up til you can use Ryuker Devices then you can switch back to regular PSO2.

I'm suprised they didn't modernize the way skill trees work a little. You still can't reset an individual skill tree.

Think you can still basically only do so by buying one extra skill tree with AC to leave blank then using SG to swap it with the one you want to reset.

The difficulty in respeccing kinda runs me into the issue on these games where I'll start at launch, then when it comes time to start spending skill points get indecisive and then wait until the bingeplayers have all hit current cap and figured out what isn't terrible.

I really wanted to get some hours into this before work today but the servers being slammed cancelled that plan. Hopefully in a few hours things will have cooled off enough for me to get online once I get home. I haven't decided if I want to give my character a radical makeover or just some light touch ups yet.

People should post more screenshots so I'll have something to look at while I'm at work.

My secret to dealing with not knowing what to do with my skill points is to never make it to the end of the game where it actually matters if you don't have max DPS. :v

i stopped playing around episode... idk it was the one where we were in tokyo and fighting trains and dinosaurs, it was insane but entertaining, i just got beaten down by the constant grinding. i did keep pso2 tweaker and i would log in once in a while to play with my outfit before logging out for months again.

do i have to install new genesis on steam or the microsoft store, or can i just keep using the tweaker? i started at launch and i know i did the account transfer, so i don't even know which platform to use if i have to download everything again.

If you already linked your PSO2 account between MS Store and Steam, it doesn't matter which one you use. The only time it matters is when starting it up on Steam for the first time because once you create a char with Steam, you can no longer link your MS Store/Xbox info. It will be locked to MS Store unless you create an entirely new Steam account just for PSO2 to have the ability to link them.

Holy poo poo this is a mess. Like, there can be upwards of like 30 seconds of server lag between quest steps updating, hits registering, etc.

I'm just gunna close this game and maybe come back in a week to see if they've unfucked it.

A +35 15* Klaus Edge being outclassed by some +0 4* NGS knuckles makes me glad that I didn't spend any time farming or upgrading gear in PSO2.

Also yeah the server load causing huge lag is not great for a game that is ostensibly supposed to be more of an action game than not. Trying to dodge enemy attacks is a total crapshoot.

so if i already linked my pso2 account back when it finally came out on stream, i don't have anything to worry about?

I had to reset Windows 10 today and downloaded PSO2 again, but whenever I try to run it through Steam it is like"pso2bridge." Something is missing, and another error pops up and it won't start.

I have tried doing file integrity and fresh download twice now.
