Phantasy Star Online 2: Sega Seeking Game Developers

Sega of Japan has announced today that they are seeking experienced game developers to work on Phantasy Star Online 2. They are seeking a client programmer, a planner, and a server programmer.

But I'm not any of those things, how can I help with development of the game? Fear not, now you can send a message directly to the Sega staff telling them anything you expect from Phantasy Star Online 2.

At this new website you can send any opinion, issue, and request you want for the game, but keep in mind Sega will only read them and can not reply back. If you are going to type a message, the first box is where you place your name, and the second box is the comment. Now I can't guarantee they have a translator on staff to read your comments.

Curtz is waiting to hear your PSO2 requests!

*Now obviously you need to know Japanese…

 

Client Programmer Xbox 360, PC, PS3

From Shougai, it appears the Client programmer needs to have experience with any of the following platforms; PC, PS3, or Xbox 360. Though there has not been an announcement for Phantasy Star Online 2 to utilize the other game consoles, it appears we may have a possible multi platform release.

 

Terada's Corner

Hm Terada's post felt like a Rapico post. Not that I'm complaining, makes it easier for me.

  • Terada talks about the Kizuna (Bonds Infinity Set) you get when pre-odering.
  • That set comes with product codes for Flowen and Rico's outfits, Dyla Bravas Mission Code, and Duman's signature weapons.
  • Talks about if  anyone can fill the requirements / recommendations  of the experienced game developer.
    • Game developer with at least 3 years experience.
    • PC/XBOX360/PS3, experience with developing on any of these systems.
    • Peer2Peer and Server Client communication models for network gaming
    • 3D Action, FPS Character control/management, and AI programming.
    • Network Game management.
    • Leader like quality.
  • Was Tylor's new design announced already?

 

Additional Comments

Here we go again, they need someone who's experienced with PC / PS3 / Xbox 360, but why? Wii isn't even on this experience list, isn't that interesting. Also does this mean we will have better First Person Shooter modes in Phantasy Star Online 2? Imagine RAcasts running in FPS mode and actually aiming and shooting. HALPSO.
