New System Information

[Cless]

I'm just interested in the new keyword and their affects. Plus the new monsters.

The way the field looks element, structure, weather, level of monstes, level of items and scrolls, etc.

Plus will they have the effect of depending on how negative or positive the keywords are will determine the appearance of more monsters and less items or vise versa.

My transcription and translation of the Battle System page:

モンスターの挙動
Behavior of Monsters

.hack//G.U.のモンスターは、ハセヲを見つけると襲い掛かってくるっ！
そのモンスターの頭上に［？］マークが現れるから、これを見たら［？］マークが［！］マークに変わらないうちに素早く戦闘の準備を整えるか、つかまらない様に速くまで逃げ切れ！
.hack//G.U.'s monster can notice Haseo and attack!
Above those monsters' heads there is a [?]. If you see the [?] change to an [!], quickly make your battle preparations, or run away if you don't want to be caught!

敵の死角から不意うちを狙え
Aim for a surprise attack from the enemy's blind spot

モンスターの背後から近づくとモンスターに不意うちを掛ける事が出来るそっ！
不意うち出来る時は画面右上に書かれているコメントが［戦闘を開始］から［不意うち］に変化するから、この時に素早く０ボタンを抑せ！
不意うちに成功すると大ダメージを与えた上で、そのモンスターを吹き飛ばす事が出来すぞ！
Get near monsters from behind and you can launch a surprise attack!
When you can launch a surprise attack, the comment written on the screen's upper-right will change from [Begin Battle] to [Surprise Attack]; at this time, quickly press the circle button!
A successful surprise attack will cause big damage, and you will blow away the monster!

スキルトリガーで大ダメージ！
Big damage via Skill Trigger!

ハセヲの頭上にR1ボタンアイコンが表示されている時はスキルトリガーのチャンス！R1ボタンを押すと時間が停止して、この間に０～［］ボタンのどれかを押すと、ボタンに対応しているスキルを発動するぞ！
時間が停止している間にスキルを迸ばないと、一定時間行動できなくなるので注意！またスキルトリガーの各ボタンに割り当てるスキルは、メインメニューの［スキルトリガー］で自由に変更する事が可能だ！
When an R1 button icon is displayed over Haseo's head, it signals a chance for a Skill Trigger. Press R1 and time will be suspended; during this interval, press the Circle or Square button to invoke a skill!
Watch out! If you don't use a skill while time is suspended, you won't be able to take any action for a fixed time! You can change what button is assigned to what skill during a Skill Trigger on the main menu under [Skill Trigger].

Does anyone have any suggestions (with links, or just where I can find it) of other .hack//G.U. stuff you'd like to see translated after I do the Rengeki system page?

[Tsugasa-kun]

Man i am loving this game more and more, its like combination Evolution worlds gamestyle with .hack Real time play

[Valvolga]

My transcription and translation of the last of the System pages, Rengeki (Party Attack):

１　レンゲキ　チャンスを狙え！
1 Aim for a Party Attack Chance!

.hack//G.U.では、敵に攻撃を連続的に叩き込むと［レンゲキチャンス］と呼ばれるコンボのフィニッシュ攻撃を決めるタイミングが発生するぞ！
In .hack//G.U., hit an enemy with a series of attacks and you'll get a chance to finish your combo with a Party Attack if you time it right!

２　スキルトリガーでレンゲキフィニッシュをヒットさせろ！
2 Hit the enemy with a Party Attack Finish via the Skill Trigger!

この時にスキルトリガーを発動し、アーツをヒットされると［レンゲキフィニッシュ］として、大ダメージを与える事が出来るっ！
Invoke the Skill Trigger at this time and you will hit the enemy with a "Party Attack Finish" technique, inflicting big damage!

３　レンゲキフィニッシュで仲間のテンションもアップ！
3 Raise your comrades' Tension via Party Attack Finish!

［レンゲキフィニッシュ］が成功した時は、画面に大きく「連繋」の二文字が浮かび上がるっ！大迫力の攻撃に、仲間のテンションも上昇するぞ！
If you hit with a Party Attack Finish, the word "Connection" will appear on the screen in large letters. With a strong attack, your comrades' Tension will rise!

[Tsugasa-kun]

From the looks of it you can do some crazy combo abilities, maybe by changing skill triggers you can change your combos

[SnowManZero]

*looks at vavolga's two post's and drool start's coming out of mouth*

[CopainChevalier]

Calm down there cowboy, everyone is in for change in G.U.

[Tsugasa-kun]

there was no mystical power in the first 4 anyways, its not like its changed at all

[CopainChevalier]

The mysticness of of a portal.. now just a high tech mechine..

[Umbra]

WHAT THE F*** DID THEY DO TO THE CHAOS GATE!! THAT RUINS ITS MYSTIC APPEARENCE!!!! ITS MORE LIKE A TELEPORTER NOW THATS SOME BULL S***!!!

Eh? I think the Chaos Gate looks better now than it did before, if anything, it looks even more mystic with those patterns enscribed across the ring.

And try not to swear, even if it is censored, everyone here knows what you're saying...

i'm with umbra the new gate actually look's like a mystical device now.

don't ret me wrong the old design was good and all but the new design like i said looks better.

and CopainChevalier, you should watch your (bad word)ing language. lol.

[Shinsou Wotan]

The mysticness of of a portal.. now just a high tech mechine..

I think that's the point. From what I can gather of the backstory of the game, in R:2 the magic has largely been lost, and at least some of the humans are turning to machinery to replace it.

Does this mean that the spells of the old games have disappeared? If so, what might that 'ball of light' attack Haseo used in the trailer be? Some sort of mechanical spell device?

[Cless]

What does the new Chaos Gate look like? I haven't seen it yet. Plus if they did get rid of the old version do you think they will have or won't have the spirit shield that prevented events like monsters running wild in root towns?

[AuraTwilight]

It seems that The World R:2 is an interpretation of the Epitaph in the scenario that the Sprites die out, and a new world (industrial) is born from the ashes. Just like in White Wolf roleplaying, spirits are dying from technology's grapplehold on the world. Whereas the Original World after the Twilight Incident is the scenario in which the Sprites won, the World R:2, going by the theory that it's made from a backup of the World, could be a sort of alternate ending to the Epitaph story.

[Thrym]

heh, seems like this version of The World is big on industrialization.

[Cless]

So industrialism wins. Why's that? Does that mean they might have event like monsters running around root towns?

[KaenKasharion]

Why was the old world big on magic?

[k-su]

wasnt magic used in the "olden days" to ward off/trap the monsters that afflicted the people (& or sprites)? And since the backstory for it was the mythical epitaph of twilight, the story was based around a magical world.
