why no Phantasy Star Universe forum under "Games In Development"

Just wondering, maybe it would be possible to make it known and they can create one. Game is coming out soon (Oct) and getting lots of hype.

PSO is not an MMO. (unless this one you are talking about is
drastically different design).
We already have Guild wars, the two are alike, and even the Guild Wars devs
will tell you its not an MMO.

How are you?" -Me
Phantasy Star has earned it though.

He's talking about PSU not PSO. PSU is an MMORPG and it releases in Oct.
Yes, its listed here just not on the left side.

Yes Phantasy Star Universe is on 3 platforms actually.. PS2, PC, and XBOX 360. I know this site has the game under it's directory for basic info but a specific forum thread for it would be cool.

I don't think PSU is an mmorpg either. they still have those rooms like old PSO, but I think the cap for those rooms are..is it something like 65, or 120? I can't remember. but a lot, LOT more then the usual 4 players.
In reality no this isn't an mmorpg because it has an offline mode. But it is close so it deserves mention on this site.

Dunno, here is the quote off the features
"Fans will travel with a squad of other adventurers, enter urban sprawls teeming with hundreds of other players, and build their avatars into powerful warriors."
The IGN hands on said they didn't get to play the online portion yet only the single player portion. I guess thats the problem with releasing so many games with the same name. Everyone gets confused and doesn't know what is what.
The game is going to have an offline mode that has characters that can only be used offline, something they added for PSU that wasn't from PSO. PSU does fit more of an mmorpg genre then PSO did also, due to indication's that the room sizes are going to be larger. Both for waiting to join a group, and also the group's cap being raised from 4 to 6. This game probably could use it's own forum, but as it's going to be released allready in October...not sure if they will put one up.
It's a good day to beleive
I know nothing about that game.
I know nothing about that game.
If an MMO has an "offline" mode for a few levels I don't see how that disqualifies it as an MMO, As long as you can play it online with many others in a persistant world, then its a massive multiplayer online game.
Conan will have a "offline" mode for the first 20 levels then you join the persistant world. Its describe as your "tutoral". Its also where you experience the begining story.
Lord of the Rings is going to do something like this also.
It looks like devs are trying this out to see if it add more to the story / rpg portion of MMO's. They may be trying to get away from the crap "spawn in front of an NPC who gives you a generic welcome and a kill task to kill 10 rats".
I'm in a beta right now and guess what? Welcome to ______world, go talk to so and so who gives me a kill task. Its very pathetic. Its the same crap we've had for the past 10 years.
Its good to see some of these companies at least trying to break the mold. I'm all for an exciting beginning in my game. In Conan you start in a slave galley rowing a ship. In LotR you start out in a happy place and then bandits some and attack the town (or something similar) I really hope I'm wrong about Turbine. I hope they pull a decent game out of the hat for once.

Oh an offline tutorial type thing, I have never played a game with that. But from what I understand, PSU will have a lobby, where you meet up and go into a game world just like PSO. Any game where you start in a lobby isn't truely an mmorpg.
Right, sorry about that I had forgotten.
