Server Event: 15 Years On

Sylverant is a homebrew open source server for Phantasy Star Online. Dreamcast users still play PSO online with this server even today! This is the official forum for both the online game server as well as the open source project itself. Feel free to post and get a gathering started online! We can also show you how to get connected!

Server Event: 15 Years On

Post by BlueCrab »

Event Information:
Start Time: January 29, 2016 @ 05:00 UTC (@250)
End Time: February 12, 2016 @ 05:00 UTC (@250)

Description:
The original Phantasy Star Online for the Sega Dreamcast was released 15 years ago. Let's keep the hunt going for 15 more years!
Your task is to hunt down the enemies that tormented all of those brave hunters that took to Ragol in the original Phantasy Star Online.

Prizes:
No prizes are being given for this event. This one is completely for the fun of it.

Feel free to use this topic to discuss the event. I'm curious to see if anyone can figure out all of the enemies involved in the event before it is over. :lol:

All versions are allowed to play, as are all difficulties.

If I was going to limit it, I'd have limited it to only V1 since that's what this is celebrating. :wink:

this is all very nice but if I may say so would be even more unique if the event were allowed only to players via dreamcast
It is that the event celebrates this 8-)

It's already pretty much limited to DC players, as GC players never play freeplay Episode I, anyway.

* Now a bit of drama to spice up this topic *
I know and understand that this event is for all players who have a record 100% active in sylverant but ...
the fair would be that all legitimate players also participate
events, legitimate players I refer to those who use an original gd pso, it's hard to get the original game and not always is a sealed pso with serial and access key
and I know that blue crab and ives Aleron or any other global root want
could easily allow the event to all hunters, but of course not for PC gamers
only to those who own a gd original pso room with or without the credentials that would be the politically correct thing to do

Actually, no Aleron Ives wouldn't be able to make the event available to everyone, as it would require changes to the code of the server to do so -- the code of the ship server, shipgate, and website would all need to be changed to do it, as would part of the database structure. I have my reasons for doing it the way it is done, and I'm not changing it. Plus, how can I identify people in the website and combine their points across all of their guild cards if I don't do it by way of the account?

That said, it's not as easy to detect a real GD-ROM as you're implying here either. Also, some people have real GD-ROMs but choose to not use them for whatever reason (like PSOv2's atrocious file sort order).
