More Character slots.

[HawterThanOrange]

Four seems kind of limiting... and with our population, wouldn't like, eight slots still leave alot of space?

[Ragnarok Knight]

Considering you can only be on one at a time, yes, it should.

Oh, you meant as in server-memory? It might start limiting some aspects of the game, if everyone had eight characters.

[HawterThanOrange]

I mean we don't have that big of a population and all that compared to japan... presuming we do have the same server capacity of japan...

Then again it might be an impossibility without retooling the actual game code

more characters would be nice and I wouldn't mind if Sega granted us a extra slot one day. But 4 is more than enough for the average player. If you have the time to level more than 4 characters to lv 130, then you obviously need to put down the controller.

[HarunaAkatsuki]

With MAG and events like that, then I think 8 well stocked and leveled characters is not unreasonable. I made 4 characters to manage 1 of each pure PM type, but I'd like to have some disposable character slots to grind weapons, create models to draw off of or whatever.

I don't exactly sit around, talking very much though. From the moment I sign on, I choose a character I feel like playing and get out there and start fighting because it's what I like to do. I get my levels, I go out, I go to work, etc.

Well, if you play cap-to-cap it's not as hard as you make it seem. How long were we stuck at 50 or 60 (cannot remember which one was over 2 months). Each level the TNL goes up by about 10k exp. Not that hard to level up.

[Silver19]

Hmm, faire enuff. Maybe I'm slow to lv. But 4 should be enuff for most ppl. if u get bored, buy a new photon art :P Or try a new weapon. Dust off those twin flourescent bulbs and whack a booma.

[Miraglyth]

"photon hard"? :?

On another note:


Changing the game/server to have 8 characters per account would have weird adverse effects liek lag spikes cuz it was only meant to have 4 characters!
The obvious question of "Why would it?" aside, you might not realise that JP's PS2/PC service already allows for 8 characters per account.

+1

[S-T-H]

I hereby declare this the 'more character slots' topic!

The only issue that I can see at the moment is that the reason they have more character slots is because of two issues. The first is the problems JP had on launch that forced them to create two separate shards. The second is the issue of bringing them back together once it was resolved.

JP is currently running on two entrances to their servers. The player cards and such are marked accordingly. They are still working out all the bugs involved with the change. It's not so much that they all of a sudden have 8 character slots on their selection screen as 2 sets of 4. It's possible that they could change the client to further integrate the data and actually just show all these slots, but they may just leave it how it is. Currently the integration that you see between characters (cards, common box, etc.) is not present between these two sets.

[NekroMunky]

Ok this all makes sense then; so JP has 8 slots however they are still separated into 4's... So 1 common box there isn't really feeding all 8 characters. In short "two different ID's on one"? That being in quotations to not be taken literally but that's sort of the idea, yes?



*** Dunno why the other got locked in general discussion but!

I think 4 more slots would be incredibly useful. The 4 we have as of right now just gives us the ability to have one of each bot and well experience is incredibly easy to come by. So once you've leveled up 4 characters and their PM's then what? Just delete one of them to start over again resetting the PM's to 0... Kind of a pain. I don't really have a problem with this other than I'd like 4 more characters for race / sex combinations.

Also +4 would give people new places to invest meseta which is pretty much being handed out to people. With the lvl cap progression I don't really see it very difficult to maintain the 4 at cap for said gamer.

I realize Japan's got it but that was more of an oopsy situation. ^_^ I want a +4 oopsy too! ***

*** This spiel I just c/p'd from the topic I made earliers. And really would like the 8 character slots; however if it's a bug that's getting fixed, well I'd imagine alot of people in japan will be quite upset when 4 characters are removed. Good Lord what a mess that is.

[S-T-H]

I don't think they'd just go and remove four characters. I meant there were certain bugs as far as having essentially two accounts and two 'entrances'. Once everything is fixed (if it isn't already) it'll probably just be set up the same as it is now.

[NekroMunky]

>_> Well...... <inappropriate language> I want more cactors.

[Mask of Zero]

There are other games out there ya know...

[NekroMunky]

Oh I've played them other games.

[kasumi19]

I mainly just want the option available to have more characters. I would not even have an issue paying for them individually. I know several people who have level capped all four of their characters and I am close to capping two out of four.

I would have no problem paying an additional $2.50 per additional character per month or having something like paying an additional $6.00 a month for four more characters. I think this would help increase revenue for Sega and please its customers as well.

[stllchlln]

i think it should be six my choices would be=1 human 1 newman 2beasts 2casts

[nyoro_n]

._. i hope so! WE BETTER GET IT ASAP!! ;-;
Today at some time, i will have 4 chars capped at 130 ._. and i won't hear an &6 for a loong time

[BoldahKnoe]

yeah would b nice for another character slot to level

[Tallin]

I already know two people who have two accounts just so they have more characters to play with. I was giving it thought but have decided against it just in case Sega decides to be nice and grant more character slots for us someday.

I would really love to have at least 2 more character slots. That is as far as I have ideas for as far as playable characters go. I have a bunch of PA's I've lvl so far and then decided I didn't want to use that weapon on that character so they PA's just sit around mocking me. I would love to put them to use.

I wouldn't think that granting more character slots would be that hard. The other game I play, we currently have 9 and 2 of those are ones you earn through gaining favor by doing quests and they are talking of giving us a 10th at some point also. So...please Sega gives us more character slots. ^_^

[SEGA Kitty]

I'd love to have more charackters too.
4 is just too less for me. I have so much design ideas and so much motivation...
I'd love to have the possibillity to generate one charakter each race female and male just to use all the design and gameplay possibilities PSU can give.

I want the chance to use it all - i just dont want to have to delte a charackter for this...

8 slots would be great though
I absolutely agree with Tallin.

People who dont want more charackters, just dont need to make more.
So at last we'd all be happy.

PLZ SEGA allow us to create more Charackters.

[gp]

Wow no way! I just deleted my human with over 1000 hours on it.
Scaling down my psu..... :?

[Sphire]

In the end, additianal slot would be more than welcome
