/jp/ - Otaku Culture

>Playing MMOs with /vg/

Dont think I dont know your spies are among us, /jp/. Which cutie were you? I bet its Rin.

>>12644213
Only picture I had around from a friend.

>>12644221
>friend
Yup

>>12644232
Yeah, the only cute grill in the picture.

>>12644239
Your friend is Lif?

>Have you gotten into a community alongside with any of the groups? Guilds?
I can't even deal with people on English-based servers

>>12644264
Why anon?

I assume you can speak really good Japanese, because they shy away from foreigners. I made a mistake and used a particle I wasn't supposed to once and everybody (20+ people) filtered out of the room in 2 minutes by telling their buddies stuff like "oh dude, we should go WAY OVER THERE and grind, just because it looks sunny over there"

I've played a few. Trickster was ok but people tended to avoid me when they discovered I couldn't understand them (this was 6 years or so ago).
Last MMO I played from Japan was @ispace and we got in trouble with the GMs for speaking English

Oh hey, just kind of when I needed some help from /jp/, anyone mind helping me in translating this?

I know it's some kind of a welcome mesage but I really want to pinpoint it to an accuracy to fix what makes it blow up, I've been invited to play with some old friends from Japan again, but I'm currently on linux and I think it would be nice if I could help people with linux be able to run this game as well.

>>12644213
Who are you quoting

>>12644367
If anyone cares, this happens every time you actually launch the game on a new installation/first installation, which it quits the game at.

>>12644367
Says you need to buy/renew something to be able to play.

>>12644514
Huh, seemingly worked when I made a new account and updated a few things, thanks for the help.

>>12644194
One of my (borderline normie) friends and his brother played a monster hunter MMO on the Japanese server through a proxy. He ended up being banned because he said "hi" to someone, and they figured out he wasn't Japanese or something because of that (that's what he says anyway).

Apparently they just communicated with smileys based on context (such as ":)" if they killed something or ":(" if someone died) before that. He doesn't speak Japanese, so I have no idea wtf he was doing.

I was on a japanese clan on SMT: Imagine and they openly knew I was foreigner, my moon was enough for the gameplay mechanics and a bit of casual chatter.

There was this high school kiddo who loved america and always tried to chatter with me in english, good lad.

Thankfully the clan died after we cleared all the end game instances, because the international server migration pretty much ruined the game.

I'm up for some mmo playing.

>>12644822
Then take your cunny to /vg/.

>>12644760
>they just communicated with smileys based on context
This is surprisingly ingenious.

>>12644851
Make me.

>>12644851
Nice anime image, f/a/g. Why don't you go back to your shit boards with >>12644822 ?

>>12644930

>>12644194
I can only associate that game with sprite lewd now.

>>12644760
Yeah, you can actually survive pretty well by using emotes.

>>12644361
It always seemed like it was the other way around to me. Whenever I'd party with a non-English speaker I'd just keep going with them and they'd always run off even if we did well. I think it's cause I kept talking to them.

>>12645717
When I play MMO I care only about mechanics, efficiency, that kind of stuff. Even on English server, I dislike interacting with others because there are too many weird people.

So when I played Elsword game on korean server, I just didn't chat at all and use auto-party and do my own thing.

I guess it depends on the players, some like to socialize, while others care about optimization?

>>12644766
Yeah, I played it on jp servers too. I had a basic knowledge of moon at the time and helped another friend figure everything out.

I was hella pissed at what happened to that game after the server jump, shit went south fast.

>>12644261
I like your tastes.

>>12644822
I'm down for some mmo playing.

Is there any /jp/ guild in RO? I would definitely bro-up with you magnificent fuckers. Just a warning, I have no idea about anything beyond transcendent 2-1, 2-2.

Did we ever make that jay pee FFXIV guild? Thinking of resubbing.

>>12644194
i hate humans. so i only /vr/ solo.

>>12646517
Have you tried asking /vg/? Don't forget to mention that you're from /jp/, the superior board.

I'm waiting for you, >>12646523.

>>12647196
How flattering.

>>12647220
Oh, I do try.

By the way, it seems like the /jp/ FCs on Moogle and Asura are either not /jp/, or dead. Those were the last large attempts at having /jp/ play together that I remember.

>>12645987
Those faggots at WEST IMP were the first sign of the inevitable doom.

>>12646517
Do you mean jRO?

Because I'd be up for it.

>>12644857
>>12645615
Not when you use english smileys.

>>12649520
its a good thing ragnarok online has 3 pages of smileys ingame which can help out with everything

tfw too little time to play with /jp/ bros. Also how can you guys not find RO boring these days?

If only there is a non-renewal server in jRO..

>>12649545
I never play seriously anymore.
I just fuck around and explore the maps in more detail.

Dunno for others though.

>>12649560
Why do people keep saying this?
The JP client and almost everything in renewal have been remade.

>>12649581
Probably some faggots from /v/ or /vg/ crossing over again. The revamped AB design looks like shit though, I prefer the original one instead of the puffy sleeves.

So, who here wants to do sum jRO gameplays?

I'd also be up for Vindictus or Mabinogi or whatever the fuck MMO.

I have a level 50 char in jRO if anyone starts playing

>>12644333
cunts.

I really need something new to play. FFXIV has been pissing me off lately but it's the only thing I have to play.

I was going to cancel my sub but I procrastinated and got charged for another month.

I used to play cosmic break on the japanese servers with some folks from /a/ back in the day.

Oh boy how fun it was to have everyone on the rooms trying to kill the "ａｍｅｒｉｃａ　ｌａｇｇｅｒ"

>>12651575
Fuck you and your jumping, laggy bots.

we should get a group going on here, I have a friend who would problably buy subscriptions for everyone granted we have enough active people.

I'm a RO secondary. I dig the music, but I never played more than a couple hours, even back then when I found MMOs fascinating.

I don't think I could have fun with it today.

>>12653070
I bet you could if you got into an actual party.

Seriously though, anybody up for some older-school jap MMO's? I'm bored out of my mind here, and I'd rather just play videogames with anons then go nuts.

>>12657498
what old school japan mmos are easily accessible and not stale? japanese don't make good mmos anyway

>>12653041
Really? I'm all in for it then.

>>12644194
Yeah, there's a few Japanese MMO for the Android that I've played.

I've been invited to guilds via random invites. I didn't know what they were saying at the time, but they were nice and helped me on a few quests that required a party.

Come on guys, seriously, let's get something going on here.

>>12664118
If you start something I've got your back 100% dawg.

>>12664118
>>12664136
I'm with you guys.

What kind of class do you like to play, jaypee? I like playing healer classes, but I don't group up with other people because it's too much responsibility.

>>12664118
>>12664136
>>12664161
>>12662094
You guys mind if I bring along a grill who draws?

Also someone should boot up a group or something.

>>12664194
That's cool bro the more the merrier!

>>12664193
Support/healer classes, I think the only MMO where I've played a non-healer role was Tera where tanks were super duper needed.

I felt pretty useful, then again, tanking in that game was pretty dynamic and fun.

>>12664194
No thanks, girls always bring drama. Especially in mmo's.

>>12664233
>implying anyone here is even going to play something together
this thread has been up for 6 days with no jolly cooperations

>>12664261
dude who are you quoting?

>>12664265
You, you big cutie.

>>12664233
she can't bring drama if she's already my gorlfriend

>>12664269
Girls cheat all the time. I hope you like ntr.

>>12664279
My hands cannot cheat.

Bad jokes aside, is anyone actually going to start this idea up?

I'd love to play MMO's as I have nothing else to do on the weekends, and playing with /jp/ has always been fun.

>>12664279
don't spread rumors about my future girlfriend please

I wanted to play on a Japanese server in FFXIV, but I'm too afraid of people judging me for my crappy Japanese and gaijin origins. Getting to the endgame and realizing no one wants to play with you sounds like the most depressing thing ever.

>>12664387
>but I'm too afraid of people judging me for my crappy Japanese and gaijin origins
jap xenophobia is too overrated

>>12664433
Doesn't even have to be xenophobia. People generally prefer to play with people they can communicate easily with.

>>12664387
No point in being reserved, just be boisterous gaijin troublemaker. If Brazil gets to do it to us, then we get to do it to Japan too.

>>12664445
General people are casuals and not even worth your time.

I'm up for playing an MMO with you guys. I haven't properly played a game for a long time. What should we play?

>>12664556
I'd be up for anything a bit older, not running the heaviest specs over here at the moment, only get home at friday.

I'd be okay with pretty much everything though, I could make guides and help people with connecting if we were to wander into a japanese territory only game such as jRO.

I will never forget playing with hotglue. May not have been the best of times but it was still fun.

Anyone play ff14 on Siren? Looking for an fc

What are some cute MMOs?

>>12664725
RO

>>12664725
RO

Playing Eden Eternal with you guys was fun as HELL.

Maybe we can start something here, I'm getting a new PC this weekend.

I'm down for some casual mmo playing.

I want to mention that I'm playing an RO server (alone) but /vg/ is also playing on it judging by their occasional presence but I don't want you guys to get the wrong idea or anything I just think it might be cool if I could join a /jp/ guild I'm pretty casual so I don't have any aspirations or dreams to become some kind of #1 woe guild or representative powerhouse I just want to take it easy don't bully me please

I'm up for an MMO as well. My Japanese is not so great in terms of kanji but I'll just have to use a dictionary then. First MMO on a JP server though so will need a guide on how to play.

Most japanese MMo tend to need VPN so no thanks

>>12664920
RO is Korean.

>wanting to play MMOs with nips

The Japanese are some of the worst MMO players you can even encounter. Played XIV with a ton of them and just because they'll say shit like "ごめんね～次はきっと（＾＿＾）！！” doesn't change the fact that they're floor decorations.

Not to mention playing on their servers is just asking for horrible ping.

>>12664931
Im talking about the general japanese MMO

Korean MMO in Japanese server may be that troublesome too, cmiiw

>>12664937
Have you tried playing on an American or European server? It's exactly the same, except they'll say something like "fucking lag" when they die.

While I don't mind a sort grind, the most important part, for me, is that I can dress up my cute little girl. Not just hats, I hope, but full outfits.

>>12644194
I play Mabinogi but not in the Japanese servers.
I don't want any more lag than the one I have already.

>>12664899
Just curious, which server?

>>12664830
Jaypee had an EE guild?
Damn I should have joined that instead of some randoms, maybe I would have enjoyed it more.

This isn't really relevant but are there any mmos out there that do not have the strictly segmented quest railroads? I just want to numb my brain rhythmically killing dude after dude yet any game I look into that people say is like that they also say is a pay to win wasteland with a dead community that is not worth getting into and I'm not too keen on private servers that have no real guarantee that I wont just be playing by myself in 3 months time.

>>12665308
>any mmos out there that do not have the strictly segmented quest railroads?
RO (pre-renewal)

>>12665329
pre-renewal isn't special or anything, you can grind for all versions of the game. it doesn't have any real quest railroads

>>12664830
I'll play Eden Eternal with you. Haven't played in forever though.

>>12665339
Yeah, there's no such thing as Eden Group in renewal.

>>12665362
Eden group is so ignorable and pointless you can hardly call it a quest railroad. Do you even know what a quest railroad is? It's something like the quest system in wow and its clones.

Grinding mobs has always been the major point of RO, regardless of versions.

>>12664830
Play the private server, things are much cheaper, you can hit 70 in a day if you really gun for it, and everyone more or less has the same opportunity to get good gear.

>>12665350
Nah, they nerfed the bard's burning aoe skill so it sucks now.

>>12664999
What lvl are you? I'm less than 200 on Mari

>>12665399
>hit 70 in a day
And you'd be bored of it in a week. No thanks.

>>12665535
Not exactly, I hit 70 in three days on my main, and in a day on one of my alts. content only goes up to 80, but barely, no 80 trials or mimic, and there are still achievements to get done, as well as awakened weapons and pvp. All in all, if you only play to grind, then you won't like it, but if you play so that you can have fun in a community thats pvp oriented, its pretty okay. Pic related, my stats as of lv75 samurai, wasn't easy to get, even with using a friends account and archive.

>>12665568
I wonder myself how I could stomach this horrible UI design back when I still played it.

I've been playing a MMORTS that was remade by Chinese(Shattered Galaxy). I have to say, it really is an improvement from the original game.

It gets pretty laggy if you aren't using a VPN. One other thing about the game is that its only active during night. There are English speaking players but they all play at night too since there's not enough in all factions to battle each other during the day

I would recommend this to anyone who likes RTS.

>>12664937
Actually, the iRO version of Ragnarok plays worse than the Nip version of Ragnarok for me to be honest.

Also, you don't even need an VPN to play it, only to access the website login.

When the game launched /jp/ had two guilds, hotglue(duchess and dickbags) and TakeItEasyCO(most awesomr wonderful people bully free zone), sadly almost everyone left after that one grindingfest we had.


Lets play a mmo and guild it up again guys, go kills some mobs, u remember tthere being some kind of radish mob iin EE that we only killed once.

That was fun.

>>12667998

Hotglue was way better than your shitty cheese guild. I even had two giant statues of myself in our guild map thing, one being a dancer or something. Bullying used to be a very important part of Hotglue.

Surely Tree of Savior will be fun.

Ive been playing PSO2 on the Jap severs since they are there are no NA or EU servers. I don't experience lag very often even though I'm in America.
Shits fun and the english community is decent.
Big tit lolis everywhere.

>>12668411
I played it until my IP got blocked

I never felt any lag before that, so I don't want to bother using a VPN and lessening the experience

>>12668475
I've been using Amazons VPN service and I don't experience any lag due to the VPN. Lately full blocks have been laggy, but that's not just me it's the actual server. SEGA has been doing lag maintenance recently to try to fix the problem.

There's a thing called PSO2 Proxy that a hand full of folks use if you ever wanna try playing again.

>>12666677
I remember back in 03-04 when Gaia Online was LITERALLY just a Ragnarok Online fansite with an anime linklist.(Also something with comic books.) It's too bad it was ruined by that unending tide of children around 05 that ruined 4chan too, and every other site they found and flooded into. I can't even imagine what a massive shit it is today.

>>12667998
Of course everyone in takeiteasy left because they're casuals.

How about Vindictus JP? It is actually a Korean game but they have separate Japanese servers. A lot of Japanese communication is not required either since we will just have our own guild.

>>12668962
Whats the point of playing on a JP server if not for the content or communication with japanese players

>>12669112
Weeaboos.

I remember jaypee would play Mabi together.

>>12669112
I mean that if someone who doesn't really know Japanese on a good reading level can still play if one wishes to do so.

I played the EU game but its not as big and developed compared to the JP servers. And personally I want to use it as a means to learn more Kanji in an enjoyable and social way.

Discretion is advised. Think first before screaming "Weeaboo". Some people here think about others too.. Just for your information.

I play FFXIV on famfrit

aYY lmoAAAAAAAAA

>>12669124
I wish they would again. /vg/ a shit.

Did that wizardry game that one /q/ guy forced ever die?

>>12668411

You probably play on ship2 though right?

>>12669661

>>12669661
I'm in the /vg/ guild because otherwise I'd play full solo, but they're super dead either way.

>>12670479
Its like Monster Hunter except the weapons and the armors drop with cosplay.

I used to play TERA with /jp/ before, was fun.

Didn't interact too much with the Japanese, though.

>>12672780
I really wanted that game to be good...
I just cant stand linear mmos

Does anyone here play FFXIV? Anyone on Faerie?

>>12668411
How long did /jp/ as a whole play PSO2?

Hey guys. I am a Ragnarok Online private server administrator. I don't want to advertise or anything.

If you guys have any questions about new contents, or about what it's like running a server, go ahead and ask.

>>12674932

What IS it like running a server, and how populated are you? I would imagine that running one of the bigger operations with 100+ people on at all times would eventually turn into a job... Smaller community servers were always nice because you could goof around and make some memories with people, but there was inevitably terrible stuff that came with community divides. As a user, whenever I got tired of a server or people's crap, it was nice to be able to just sort of move on, do you ever get the urge to just wipe everything and start fresh?

>>12674976
My server runs at about 80 people, though we've had 500+ on the golden days, around 2008~2009(though I only became a staff member late last years).

We've been around for almost 10 years, since the first emulators, so a good portion of our population is made up of people who have been here for 4+ years. I, myself, played it for almost 8 years.

Running the server in itself isn't difficult. You just leave it on and it runs itself. Like most servers, we have a small script that reboots the server in case of a crash. Periodically you have to do maintenance and implement new content, specially if you're a heavily customized server like the one I am running.

From a technical point of view, it's quite simple as well. The entirety of Ragnarok Online is written in C. Literally everything. The NPC scripting is done with a game-specific language that's identical to C structure, but has its own commands. Here's a link for reference:

http://buwinow5.tripod.com/

The database is an MySQL interface. GMs get a HTML version that's easier to work with. Then the game itself runs on a Linux machine, but all you really need to do is navigate to the directory and run the file.

Any half-assed technician could do it, but making the calls is where the problems are. Balancing classes, balancing items, continuously adding content, hosting events, fixing bugs. You also have to deal with other staff members, who often aren't as serious as they have to be. One in about 10 GMs is competent to do his job.

Also, wiping anything is the absolutely last thing you ever want to do. Nothing will upset players more. It's a last resort. We had to wipe players when we changed emulators(our old one didn't allow 3rd classes/new content), but to keep them happy, we let them keep cosmetic items. Worked great, but a large number left nonetheless.

Being a senior staff member is actually fun, despite everything. It's like playing an RTS game, but with real people.

>>12644213
/vg/ is shit at MMOs. Not only can none of them run a guild properly, whenever we try to play, in a few days there would only be like 5-6 players left in a guild of hundreds. Never play with /vg/.

>>12675002
What're your rates?

>>12675075
200/160/100, card drop 75

Max Level 255/100.

>>12674584
I'm playing on a no-name European server. Thinking of switching, but probably to a Japanese server. I have an alt on Carbuncle, and I often log in just to look at the party finder. It amazes me how much more actively it's used.

>>12675086
Holy shit, on Faerie the most I see in PF is 13 or so.

>>12675121
It's even worse on my server, never more than 10 during primetime, and it's always shit like FATE farming or hunts, since no one would even attempt progression content without a static.

Not sure how high success rate those FBoC PF groups on JP servers have, but at least it's an option.

And here's Carbuncle's PF during actual peak hours. Is there any European or American server that compares to this?

>>12675922
I never pay attention to PF anymore so I'm not sure. My server isn't one of the most populated but I know during prime time there's at least 10+. I never bother scrolling and I just realized that number on the bottom right is the total.

I can't tell what those groups are for but since most of them only need 1 person I'm guessing it's statics trying to replace a missing person for the raid.

>>12668411
I wish I could still play. Maybe I'll try a VPN some day.

>>12675070
I still stick with the dead and full of shitposting /vg/ generals for Mabinogi because otherwise I'd be totally alone and I'd be forced to stick with the retarded server population in party play.

How can I get a name that won't obviously point me out as a gaijin?

>>12676665
English characters, three letters maximum

>>12669661
Killed by cash shop at launch.

Only a handful of people were interested in the game anyways. I liked it.

>>12672780
It's still the sexiest MMO
I can't NOT have a boner while playing Tera

It's semen demon the game

>>12672780
TERA had so much potential it wasnt fucking funny
Its just unfortunate that it was a shitskin magnet and that it was poorly optimized
What are the Japanese servers like, are they populated at all? I ran out of steam for playing the US ones because I had 250+ ping at all times

I'm on Cerberus, kinda ronery though. For some reason it's really hard to find a FC which has people I actually want to hang out with, and the other way around.

South americans. brazilians in particular if thats what's he's referencing. im not racist by choice, but experience. and brazilians are one of the most awful people out there when mmo's are concerned.

How text-heavy is SMT: Imagine? I'm thinking about playing once my moon gets better.

>>12679926
Most things that matter are easy to understand (also you don't need Japanese to get them because "Peorth of Ain Soph Aur" doesn't mean much to them either) and quests usually tell you where to go next in no uncertain terms. As long as you can communicate enough to form a party (and you will need a party for most endgame content), you're fine. That said, enjoy the most hideously overinflated economy in any game I've ever played.

Maybe I should return too. I had a pretty nice Cait Sith there, but I'm still pissed over how badly Aeria fucked up the English server.

>>12679866
I'm on Cerberus too. What's your name?

As someone familiar with an MMO with a 70% Brazilian player base, I can confirm that they are indeed vile, cheating and scamming shit. And if things don't go their way, they don't hesitate to DDoS your servers literally for years.

>>12680918
It's so sad that BnS never came to the west. I spent so much time on the chinese and korean servers with shitty ping.

Why do you guys seem to hold japanese people on a pedestal to the point of using VPN services specifically to play on their servers.

As far as games go, Japanese people have consistently demonstrated that they're really bad at any sort of game requiring cooperation, and good at single player games (The cooperation required in monster hunter is a joke by the way).

That's why they're shit at AoS, shit at MMOs, shit at competitive FPS, and really good at fightan.

Granted, there are exceptions to any stereotype but even in FFXIV, Japanese players tended to be floor decorations more often than their western counterparts.

>>12681678
>Why do you guys seem to hold japanese people on a pedestal to the point of using VPN services specifically to play on their server

I don't think people prefer JPs because they're the better gamers (they're not). It's just that their players and communities tend to be less toxic / cancerous than their western counterparts.

jRO is the only good renewal server, considering it has almost changed everything that makes renewal easier/more shit, also the community isn't dead and filled with bots + they've actually updated and fixed the client, so it uses more functioning network now.

>>12681678
This is the first time anyone has tried telling me this. Everyone I've heard from playing on Japanese servers tell me they're surprisingly decent to pug with, with stories of people successfully pugging dungeons that are considered impossible to pug on English servers. They also tend to get world first clear in games that release content simultaneously for all regions.

>>12681678
For me, its the best balance between a good player base and frequent content updates. Every MMO I've ever played, Korean or otherwise, gets updates in Japan far before NA. Naturally,Kkorea is usually the best if you want to play the latest version of a game ASAP, but I don't want to communicate or associate with Koreans, so I'm content with getting the updates slightly behind Korea but ahead of everywhere else, and having a good playerbase.

>>12681678
I won't deny, there are people out there who glorify ALL japanese people for no major reasons whatsoever.
But it's also true, that in general the japanese are more considerate and patient towards each other - or at least amongst themselves.

Exceptions are everywhere to both good and negative examples, humans are mostly the same anyway, no matter where they live.

I've only played once on a japanese server and on that one example, the players were good in both manners and skill. Don't know how my experiences would be with other games played amongst the japanese.

That one game was Soldier Front, a shitty online FPS that I played many, many years ago.
One of the maps was called "Castle", with a medieval theme, mostly stone walls and a small church in the middle.
Teams were split into 10-10 people as far as I can remember, red team had to guard a suitcase in the church for X minutes, blue team had to steal it and take it back to extraction point.

I played mostly on red, we rushed into the church, took up positions and waited for blue to invade.
People with machineguns in-between the benches, 2 others behind doors for surprise-counters and 2 snipers behind the altar looking straight at the door.
Blue team would have to come in through that one entrance, they mostly used smoke grenades or flashbangs and stormed in, gunfire everywhere amidst the smoke, it felt like I was part of the scenario from old Hellsing's first episode.

Most matches were like this, exciting and fun, until my account was banned 4 days later, since they didn't want any foreigners playing.

I believe that was the right way to play the game, because meanwhile on western servers, on the same game people would just run around spraying with their machineguns everywhere until all enemies died. Not once did anyone properly defend that fuckin church.
And this was the "good case".

>>12682084
(cont.)
In the bad case, which was still 4/5 of all matches, people used hacks to freeze the enemy team at the start and after 2-3 minutes of waiting the game would start and about a dozen grenades would instantly blow up, killing us all.
Not to mention all the invincible hacks or the more annoying wall-glitches when they hid behind structures, only the barrel of their sniper rifles hanging out and shooting everyone throughout the whole map in peace.

Or I could mention my guild on Tera;
it doesn't matter after how many weeks I log back on or what time of day it is, they mostly just spam guildchat, calling each other "Gay XD" and that's it.
Sad thing is, most of them are over 30 years old.
Only damn reason I'm still there is because of the acces to all materials in the guildbank.

Ofcourse, there are good and mature guilds in the west too, but I think there might be more idiots and kids here.

>>12682099
Forgot to add, on that japanese server I could play all day long and no one ever used any cheats or hacks.

>>12681076
It's still up in Japan.

Last I heard of it, macca-to-cash-item rates were so fucked up that paying 800mil for the newest cashcow item was a bargain. Not because the items were particularly rare, mind you, but because macca is so easy to farm that the economy spun out of control.

>>12681633
They said they're gonna have US beta testing Q1 2015 but we'll see how true that is since they cant update their website for shit

>>12682113
>Forgot to add, on that japanese server I could play all day long and no one ever used any cheats or hacks.

This is solely because Japs are bad at computers, not because of any inherent politeness.

Is there anyone playing FFXIV on cactuar?

please respond.

I played Cosmic Break on the Japanese servers after the NA beta ended. All you really need to interact with Japanese people online seems to be すみません and ありがとうございます

And then probably more waiting

I will pay to host an RO or other kind of server just for /jp/, if /jp/ wills it.

>>12646517
Aren't the RO players just waiting for Tree of Savior or whatever?

>>12679855
I had characters on the iRO main server. I had to learn how to play 3rd jobs before I attempted to make a 3rd jobs server, so it was kind of like a test period.

I am still one of the highest level Kagerous. Eternally stuck at 149.

>>12681517
Ragnarok Private Server owner-guy here. Nice to see this thread still running.

Anyway. Personally, I am brazilian myself, but I am also well aware of the way my countrymen play MMOs. The BR population more than tripled as soon as they found out a brazilian was going to run the server, for some reason. I can also attest that groups of BRs will almost always universally share accounts, in a way that a large group of people share everyone's accounts. The problem with that is that brazilians are corrupt cheaters by nature, so it leads to them stealing/hacking each other at about 70%+ of the cases.

Also, for some reason, they think it's okay to ask for gear and favors for no particular reason. Back when I was just a normal player, ever, I'd get asked to join BR guilds/parties, which I promptly refused. Apparently, not "sticking with the pack" is not a very well seen behavior. I was even called a traitor. One time someone said I was "a dog licking the gringo's boots". Shit's awful.

That said, brazilians are capable of amazing feats in online games. Not just numbers, but sometimes one or two people stand out as good players. It's not a coincidence they take over so many MMO games.

How do I get started in RO?

I'm also a Brazilian.

>>12681517
I mean, maybe you're exaggerating a bit. Though, I'll agree on the fact that a large swath of the Brazilian MMO community is unpleasant or "vile". It's come to the point where I try to pass as an American as much as I can since merely stating you're from South America carries some heavy connotations with it, and it really does change the way people see and interact with you.

It's mostly because of the language, I think: it intrinsically carries culture within it. If you go to an American server, it is your prerogative to put up and start speaking English, or be unwelcome in general. But the MMO community here still doesn't get that coming into a server and speaking nothing *but* Portuguese and badly-mangled English is tantamount to rejecting that MMO's culture and imposing your own in it; it puts us in a bad light. Some people also do it for fun and to spite other English speakers, which is even more deplorable.

It reminds me of the time I used to play Pangya Online. The South American server had to unfortunately shut down due to financial difficulties, so the Brazilian population migrated over to Albatross 18, the American server (and in some small part, the Asian server). Nobody really knew or didn't want to speak English, to the point where the situation got so bad, they had to IP-lock Albatross to keep the Brazilians out. It was a sad day when I had to go over with a friend to the Asian server, where we didn't understand a thing.

>>12688984
Well, that was a bit of a mouthful. My point is, please don't paint us Brazilians all in the same color. Some of us do try to conform and be nice guys to people in foreign servers. The internet in Brazil and MMO's grew up together, and we love MMO's just as much as our buddies in other countries!

Does anyone have experience with playing TERA on the Chinese, Japanese or Korean servers?
What's latency like? Do you need a VPN?
I'm not in the US, so maybe they would offer better ping for me or the players would be better or something. What's the population like?

>>12690132
Chinese and Korean servers are awful. Jap servers are pretty good though.
I've played BnS on both Korean and Chinese servers and had like 400-500ping but I get 180 on Jap servers

>>12688828
I will gladly play in a /jp/ RO server.

>>12690132
I don't know about the others but you'll need a VPN for JP Tera.

>>12690681
What sort of services do you recommend? I've never tried playing an MMO using a VPN before and I have very little experience with them in general.

>>12690219
Did you use a VPN and still have that latency?

It should be, honestly. Chances are you WILL get hooked on at least one of them, and it will eat up all of your time.
However, very few have a high barrier of entry, if you so insist. Pick one that seems interesting and give it a go.

>>12696109
Is a tablecat a cat made out of tables
or maybe a cat that looks like a table
or maybe a cat that constantly sits on tables

>>12699673
I would guess it's a cat that mimics tables. Imagine if it did a better job than a real table.

>>12699677
One of those two is a tablecat, be careful!

I know I'm getting tricked again by the cute graphics, but I'm going to test this next evening: https://hh.x-legend.co.jp/
That's the last game from the Taiwanese guys from Eden Eternal/Aura Kingdom, it only came out 1 or 2 months ago for the nips. It seems like they managed to get some Japanese seiyuus like Uchida Maaya and Sawashiro Miyuki to dub the characters.
I don't know what kind of gameplay gimmick they put in it, and the game is probably a grindfest just like their other games, but it doesn't bother me.

>>12703139
Looks like a shitty version of monster hunter, but I'm up for it

Is it IP locked? I don't know if I'd want to play a game like that with normal lag to a JP server + VPN lag

>>12703245
Unfortunately, it seems to be region locked. Their FAQ says that you can send them your ISP and IP address if you want to play from overseas, though.

>>12688828
Why not just jump ship on jRO itself?

I think it's the only server that doesn't use an old shitty TCP only connection and non-half assed renewal system.

Been playing Journey to the West recently. It let you play as elemental lolis. Cool and cute.

>>12707610
Wow, that's lewd as fuck.

>>12707635
There's also a fire transformation. They're really nice to look at. Sorry for the quality, screenshots don't seem to keep the AA.

>>12707610
>>12707645
They hurt my eyes.

>>12707610
>>12707645
Is this new? Are there doujins?

>>12707660
They last only 20secs, it's a transformation you can use that strengthen your character with a 2mins cooldown. Basically as you play the game you get new transformation. At lv30 I've gotten fire, earth and thunder so far.
>>12707665
It's kinda old, but it's been in global CBT since early november. It's still pretty empty though.
The game is pretty easy and the instances don't take 3 hours to play unlike some others mmos (at least the first 2 didn't take too long).

>>12707675
The first few instances don't last long in ANY MMO. Well, at least in no MMO created after 05.

>>12707610
>>12707645
Where are the nipples? Boring.

I keep trying to sign up for PSO2 but can never access the page, even with Japanese language settings turned on. I can't ever seem to get an answer to this problem in the /vg/ thread either.

>>12707691
It's not an eroge anon.

>>12707683
True I guess. In either case the first instance took me around 30mins to complete, the second more or less the same. The second boss was a bit different though as he had specific targetted AOE that hurt a lot.

>>12707702
Are you trying to access pso2.jp? That page blocks any non jap ip, but you don't need to go there to make an account, you make a sega id by following this guide. http://arks-layer.com/signup.php

Alright. I managed to get the game running. Sadly, it is ip locked and I had to use VPN. Which I did! But then it DCed after the first cinematic. I didn't really try after that since /jp/ wasn't interested and I don't want to play on my own. I could throw a step by step guide here on how to play. We will need more interested though.

>>12710422
It is Nexon JP sadly. They care more about their community compared to eu and na though. Including these weird community anime events.

>>12668411
Apparently they just blocked more ISPs this past update. I got hit with it so I'm shit outta luck.

>>12712488
I wonder why they keep kicking out any potential buyer since we basically won't see PSO2 in the west any time soon...

>>12664830

Or try Amazon web services 1 year trail. I don't really know how to set that one up but it sounds much better than using the pso2proxy, I should probably figure it out sometime.

>>12712519
I dunno man, I can't even buy AC as they seem to block credit cards too. I even tried through pso2es Google wallet method, which is supposed to work but even that gets declined, though I think its just Google wallet being paranoid about foreign transactions so I'm trying to troubleshoot with them.

Please do. Lets establish some rules tho:

1. Pre-Renewal
2. Low to Mid-high rates. (how ever you want, start with higher rates early on to have our characters finished faster)
3. Consider balancing some classes that are underpowered compared to other ones.

Does anyone still play on TERA NA? I'm hopping on to my Lancer, and I've been kicked from the old guild, not surprising because I didn't play for a year.

>>12719080
The point is that you shouldn't use the subjective notion of "one of the best artist in Japan" as an answer to the subjective as well "hating BR" attitude.

I've wasted most of my free time these past 4 years playing Japanese server MMORPGs. Off the top of my head, I played Finding Neverland Online, Dream Drops, TERA, PSO2, 幻想神域, and now I'm giving Hunter Hero a try.

Incidentally, I've always joined guilds ASAP and everyone always knew I was a foreigner, but I never got banned for it. I think as long as you're polite and type in Japanese nobody really cares, those rules are just there for RMTs and annoying groups of foreigners speaking their own languages. Most guilds are actually pretty excited to have a foreigner with them, I made a lot of friends.

>>12724646
Good for you.

>>12724646
be my friend

>>12724661
Rude. OP asked questions and I answered.

>>12724711
Wouldn't you rather make friends with Japanese people in these games? Jump into the deep end, anon. People are nice.

>>12724723
How do you make friends with Japanese people? This kind of thing doesn't come automatically to me.

>>12724738
Join a guild. Sometimes they advertise in town/world chat, sometimes there's a guild board. Either way, be sure to message the GM or advertiser first. Tell them that you're a foreigner but you'd like to join their guild if it's okay. When you get let in, introduce yourself as being from (your country). It's a good conversation starter. Every now and then, bring up something about the time difference or living in (your country) in guild chat for the people who weren't there when you joined.

Eventually you'll make friends without needing to use your foreigner status as a conversation starter and then you're golden.

>>12724646
I want to try playing TERA on Japanese servers, but I both don't speak Japanese, nor do I have a Japanese cell phone number. How did you get your account, where were you playing from, and what was your latency like?

>>12724781
Besides the usual non-Unicode-settings-to-Japanese stuff, TERA requires Vistalizator to trick the client into thinking you're running Japanese Windows. You will also need a proxy or VPN to get past the IP ban, and there's some incredibly slow and obnoxious GameGuard stuff that loads up every time you log in.

The latency is pretty awful. I only played it for a couple weeks before moving on, couldn't handle it.

Most games are not as bad about this as JP TERA is. Usually you're fine with just a JP IP address, and some don't ban by IP at all. Blade & Soul doesn't have an IP ban, for example. I suggest giving up on JP TERA and trying something else.

>>12688828
Baka!

Are you finished with that server? I want to play /jp/RO, YotsubaRO or TouhouRO call it however you want but make it happen !!

I'm bored !! Please...

>>12724800
>Blade & Soul doesn't have an IP ban
Uhh did they just change that recently?

I remember during the beta I had to use a VPN to connect and afterwards I didnt even want to bother because it's 3000 yen a month

>>12724397
Fucking pussy japs queuing for everything. They should just run up and do the quest. Screw everyone else.

>>12725139
Why do they have to queue? Is the npc some sort of static event only 1 person can access each time?

>>12725074
I think I played shortly after official release started. I don't recall needing to use my VPN to log in. Same as you though, I decided against continuing because 3k yen/mo (for BASIC service, pay more for mount/bag space!) is insane.

I'm not sure why they think they can get away with that when FFXIV is ~$13/mo and PSO2 is free w/ ~$15/mo premium monthly.

>>12724800
I'm just going back to NA TERA, but I live in New Zealand so I'm playing 250ms to their servers anyway.

I would like to give Blade and Soul a try, I heard it was the 'TERA Killer' MMO, but apparently it doesn't even have generals on /vg/. I assume B&S is paid though, and I'm not in the habit of paying for an MMO Sub these days as I play too many other games.

>>12725150
If I remember right, it's because at launch the servers were so overloaded that so many people trying to enter to do the quest would crash the server. It was a main story quest so everyone was trying to do it. FFXIV's launch was horrible.

The japs would also line up for stuff in FFXI too, and I'm sure they have done it in other games as well.

>>12725177
>but apparently it doesn't even have generals on /vg/.
Might have something to do with there being no localization anywhere in sight. Last update on it was 2 years ago now. I'm not sure if it's a TERA killer, but it doesn't need to be, TERA will die a natural death before they release B&S in the west.

>>12725198
Man, I remember having to do that on TERA launch (not on JP server, though). There would be dozens of people at boss mobs you needed to kill for the main quest. It wasn't even that the respawn timer was high, problem was the tagging system required you to both be the first to hit the mob and deal more than 50% damage to it to get credit for the kill, so with all those people there spamming attacks, hoping to be the first to tag it, no one would get credit. Of course, since it was a western server, people making queues would be an exception, even though it would have been quicker for everyone that way. Most places people would just stand there for ages trying to tag first, or just start killing people.

>>12726064
PSO2 all over again ;_;

>>12726064
>problem was the tagging system required you to both be the first to hit the mob and deal more than 50% damage to it to get credit for the kill,

Are there any post 2005 games that are like RO where you can kill any monster even if someone hit it first and also stuff falls on the ground and can be picked up by anyone?

>>12726283
FFXIV's system is alright. You always get credit if you tag it, and you can also get credit if you contribute enough to the kill. Not sure exactly how much minimum contribution you need, but generally if you see someone else attacking a monster and it's not below 10% HP already, you can help him finish it off and still get credit.

>>12726325
can you drag monsters around the world or will they run back to their little playground if you go far enough away?

>>12726283
You can't really have this sort of system anymore because of chinese farmer bots.

>>12726332
There's aggro reset, like in every modern MMO. As annoying as it is when someone resets a mob you're attacking, I've played games without aggro reset and it's generally fucking annoying. I remember in Anarchy Online, mobs wouldn't reset before everything they had aggroed was dead, which meant that you could enter a dungeon and find every single mob and boss right at the entrance because some idiot pulled them there while trying to run away.

>>12726283
>Are there any post 2005 games that are like RO
I wish there are ;_;
>>12724830
I'm bored too..
Please, >>12688828-san

There was this MMO called Wizardry Online. It features permadeath, full loot PvP, an outlaw system and so on. Sony made a western version of the game but it was years behind the Japanese version. They fucked it up so bad that they had to shut it down next year.

I really want to play the Japanese servers but I wouldn't be able to communicate with anyone and the lag would be pretty bad. Do note that latency really matters in this game since you can aim your sword swings and dodge in real time with the right timing.

>>12726363
At least that makes it fun.

>>12726363
I remembered this in old school EQ where people would pull all of lower guk all the way to the entrance. Was pretty funny.

Why the fuck are the japanese so xenophobic? Just because we can't speak your language doesn't mean we are BR tier, begging for money and items and overall being a nuisance.

>>12726409
Because that way there are no lag problems, language barriers, and so on. Also, they have enough japanese players to keep the servers populated.
I'd love for my country to have some games that did this, but unfortunately there are none.

>>12726409
There are a lot of people, especially in central Europe, that have an irrational fear of niggers. Not because they ever had any actual reason to fear them, but simply because they have never seen a live nigger in their lifes (blacks only appear in major population centeres and France over here). Humans fear the unknown, apparently.

I would assume the same reasoning applies to Japan. They barely speak any other language than their own, foreigners usually do not stray far from the tourist hotspots thanks to the language barrier. This self-imposed isolation would lead to xenophobia over time, I guess.

>>12726432
>There are a lot of people, especially in central Europe, that have an irrational fear of niggers.

To be honest, most (but not all) Murrican players on PSO2 openly talk english and spam the lobby with symbolarts (basically PSO2 emotes customizable).

I remember that too. There would be a ton of people standing in the middle fighting and there would be some standing to the side saying "STOP FIGHTING AND EVERYONE TAKE TURNS!!"
I'm glad they removed that entire half of that starting island. Waste of time.

Is anyone in /jp/ still in Take it Easy on MT?

>>12726432
Well.I LIVE or try to live in Holland and niggers are all over the place and I don't even live in a big city but a moderate village. They are literally everywhere and causing problems. They are at school, at the bis stop breaking glass, smoking weed every day. They are a menace we wouldn't find in Japan since they are too animalistic to understand the language anyway. *bow*

Btw, call Greenpeace if you think I am racist. They will defend those raping animals.

>>12726409
They're not xenophobic if you can make a decent attempt at using Japanese, even if they know you're a foreigner they're very nice.

And yes, you absolutely are BR tier if you're running around typing English on JP servers.

>Finding Neverland Online
>幻想神域
>Hunter Hero
Maybe we passed by each other without knowing. I also played 晴空物語 some time ago.

>>12727485
Finding Neverland Online was the one of those three that I spent the most time in. I was a Mage/Illusionist main but also dabbled in Knight.

The guild PvP was pretty fun. It's too bad there were so many awful classes (pretty much anything that needed both physical and magical attack, like Holy Knight, Dragoon, Sage, etc. was terrible)

>>12727325
Is there a new guild, or did everyone just stop playing?
I applied to Take it Easy today, but I accidentally applied to Touch Fluffy Tail as well, and was accepted there after 5 mins.

>>12727097
Good thing I'm not then.

Still waiting for jaypee. I have 18 hours a day of free time.

>>12728663
Spend it on something useful instead of MMOs. Like learning, or researching things.

>>12726409
>Why the fuck are the japanese so xenophobic?
And then you go on about hating BRs without understanding you are the BR to them.

>>12726409
If you really think they are xenophobic then yes, you're BR tier.

>>12726590
That's because, from my experience, they hate people who can't speak japanese, not just because they are foreigners. And yes, most murrican people will english their way out wherever they are.

TIE is dead. I think a lot of people no longer play and those that do have moved to other guilds. I think some are in TFT, I have seen some other former TIE in a guild called Atonement. Ridalen still seems to log on from time to time, it wouldn't surprise me if the guild came back for a bit once the 65 patch hits. I hope so, always preferred playing with TIE people as opposed to those fucking faggots in TFT.

It's dead. I think the members that still play are in other guilds. I wouldn't be surprised if it came back after the 65 patch, I still see Ridalen online occasionally (assuming he has glead). Would be nice, always liked playing with /jp/. Much better than those fags in TFT.

I want to play jRO but i'm quite lost, is it free? Is it too p2w? I don't really care because i'd just play with some jpsies but still.

>>12728761
If you are not wasting it then it was never free time.

>>12729882
>>12729894
My main was in NFA until I stopped playing, and I got cleared out at some point while I wasn't playing. I assume Ridalen was the GM of TIE? I would love to play with /jp/, having never done it before properly in any MMO..

Let us play together /jp/!

>>12731322
Play what?

>>12731322
Things arranged by /jp/ rarely ever amount to anything

>>12731402
A nice fun mmo dude!

>>12731887
You have to be more specific. There are many nice and fun MMOs, which one are you thinking of?

>>12731887
God eno is so cute.

>>12731945
You are cute!

>>12731956
I know.

I assume you came from MMOs like Neverwinter or something and decided to have some strange interest in WO?

It was pretty fun IF you got into it and had people ready available at every opportunity. Even IF for any reason you could easily play in any version ever of the game you would have communication problems without your own Guild and succumb...

Also, SOE didn't really fuck it up in any way. They're just retarded like always and shut down games before they're even given a chance to shine like they did with countless MMOs, like The Crew and Star Wars Galaxies then publish super casual shit like Landmark instead(as if The Crew didn't sound/look bad enough).

Basically no one cared enough to give into the game's cash shop to begin with since going with an active Guild pretty much guaranteed you any of the things you would ever want, game was easily farmable IF not for the shit drop chances of decent gear, which made me join an actual Guild instead of leading my own small group a long time ago. It was bound to die in the West, even the best Guilds didn't give into cash shop.

Sorry to say, but you're not getting another chance if you don't live in Japan. All I know about the Japanese version after I quit is that there is this thing meant for Windows Phones...if it works any similar to the ECO version meant for Windows Phone in Nico Nico Apps, it probably lets you play without proxies.

Good luck if you decide to try it out, never did and never will.

>>12726377
Remember when we could talk about specific MMOs in /jp/ before that guy got mad no one wanted to play Wizardry Online with him and whined in /q/ until a rogue mod started deleting MMO threads?

Thanks for causing me to recede back into my Ragnarok addiction /jp/.

>>12737361
What kind of loser gets addicted to ragnarok in 2014?

>>12736315
The good old days.

Finally got a decent desktop instead of my bad laptop. Hunter Hero is surprisingly cute on highest settings.
