Class of Heroes: Web Updates

[Rednusander]

I'll be using this thread to tell you guys when we've updated the website. We've got a lot more planned as far as bonus content goes, namely in the "Extra Credit" section:

-Newsletters that will provide you some back story on the teachers and students leading up to the events in the game, as well as some handy information on the available majors and some other game play elements.

-A comic strip featured on the Japanese site that has been localized by our best-in-the-biz translation staff. Note that it still reads from right to left, like a Japanese manga would. Not only is it funny, but it's informative! It'll answer a lot of the questions you guys have been asking in the various other threads.

-And of course, wallpapers!

Our latest update took us to the 4th strip of the comic... out of 18 total! I'll keep you posted.

[Foryth]

Great! I'm looking forward to it. Probably a good way to get us psyched up for when the game comes out.

[Jaxx-Leviathan]

I am looking forward to more information as I have been pretty interested in this game as of late. Love the comic so far.

[Kakizaki]

^Not a big deal, but do you really need to use italic font?

[Zynthomaru]

Can't wait for this game to come out since I had a psp for a while now I didn't really find any worthwhile games. If u guys can think of any games along the lines of the rpg or fighting post it. I'm getting bored of the psp rite now!

Class of Heroes Web Update #2!

2 more strips in the comic: Rob the warrior discovers what affinity really means! (Remember, read right to left.)

2 wallpapers!

That's a lot of 2's and exclamation points!!!

Interesting fact: The background of the wallpapers is actually Japanese grid paper, used commonly in Japanese schools, much like our lined, spiral notebook paper over here.

[Enzeru]

Ya! New comics and wallpapers, plus Devil Survivor announcement! Atlus made my month. xD

[TheMagicHat]

Those comics are insane! I love it!

[Sei]

Heh thanks for the updates, I love the comics as well. I'm really looking forward to this.

[Manly Biceps]

I personally liked the panel that had both horizontal and vertical ellipses.

Also, nice to see the realistic portrayal of White Rob.

[poiuiu]

Blah, two more disappointing strips.

These have nothing against the EO1/2 single panel comics. :(

[kelvinc]

LOL this is a much better way of learning how the game works than just a bunch of text.

The Erdgeist reminds me of Aigis.
Which, of course, means I totally want some of that mechanical ass. :D

Erdgeist > Aigis

I mean, they exist on an astral plain!

Thank you so much for making most of the site not in flash. So many official websites are in flash and it's so annoying to navigate through and load each time. I know it's a small stupid complaint, but I'm just glad flash is almost gone from the site. Thanks!

I have been looking forward to this game since i got the email as the psp has been lacking a lot latel in fun games.

[Rednusander]

It's that time again! Comic strip number 7 is up, as well as a wallpaper for EACH race.

We've also posted the Particus Academy (where you'll be enrolling when you get the game) newsletter volume 1, giving you a glimpse of one of the teachers, some of the majors that are available, and a few locations of the campus.

[kelvinc]

The recent strip has me a bit concerned.

There will be pointless dating in this game, right? ;)

[Foryth]

I certainly hope not.

[Enzeru]

I liked the newsletter, although were there supposed to be two missing words near the bottom...?

[poiuiu]

That's why Persona 3 and 4 exist; keep that stuff away from dungeon crawlers.

And there's no chance of a comprehensive skill list and growth guide as an update is there? :|

[Zachalmighty]

Comic number 8 is up for those of you who haven't noticed.

[Rednusander]

Another sizable update to the site, featuring the second newsletter. This one gives you a good glimpse at some of the races if you haven't checked them out yet.

Two more comic strips went up as well, giving you you some info on how dying works in the game... and Rob the Warrior's chances of making it to strip 11 don't look so good!

[Enzeru]

So there IS a form of perma-death. I like that system a lot. ^^

[poiuiu]

Finally some good strips (barring the first one); not that I blame you Mr. Updater-guy. Not very punch-line-y but permadeath is always a good thing to know about.


Oh, and did I just see 'OVER 70 maps'?! :D

These comics aren't meant to be so much of a "HA HA, hilarious!" as they are a slightly more humorous way of unveiling some of the game mechanics.

[poiuiu]

While I realise that, these strips doesn't really reveal anything more than what most guys who're into the game have already known or can deduce; after all, (beware, blanket statement incoming) if you're looking forward to this game, you're likely already a big dungeon crawling fan to begin with and kinda know the gist of what to expect.

Ah well, I'll stop complaining now and continue complaining about its April release. :)

It's OK, complaining all the time is a cornerstone of The Canadian Way, just like shoveling the driveway with a hockey stick while discussing the weather and drinking a double-double. Besides, I know you're just frustrated that amazon.ca killed our coupon, our precious coupon...

:very_sad::very_sad::very_sad::very_sad:

[Rednusander]

It's that time again! Two more comic panels. Is Rob's revival realized!? Or does Death do his dastardly deed? Go find out!

[Andrew_Fireborn]

Quick item: Was going through and grabbing all the wallpapers, and the Halfling 1280 is 404'd. Probably cause the link's pointing at '/HALFING' instead of '/HALFLING' like the rest of the resolutions. :p

Fixed that for ya. Thanks for letting us know.

In other news, we've just updated the site with more Class of Heroes goodness. Two more comic panels, and the 3rd newsletter are up for your perusal. This newsletter features a glimpse of some of the other schools you'll run across during your travels.

...And yes, that demonic baby surfing on a bottle in the newsletter's upper left is just one of the bizarre monsters you'll encounter in the labyrinth's depths.

[TheMagicHat]

I'm SO loving the comics so far. I'm just waiting for Rob to get himself killed again.

Probably won't happen, but it'd be funny as hell. :p

[Zachalmighty]

For those of you who don't check the site often, web comics 15 and 16 are up.

Sorry Rednusander ;)

[BR3WZER]

I find myself checking it everyday, I'm not sure why. I know he's spacing out the updates, but I can help but check all the time. So Rednusander, have we seen our last newsletter?

[Enzeru]

^Pretty sure there's an update every Friday.

I've been anticipating this game for a while, and the comics are giving me some inspiration. I think I'm going to have to enroll Rob into my study group... and have him upset the big, nasty looking baddies. I just worry about the imaginary chit-chat that will bounce around my head.

Looking forward to the game, and Rob's eventual graduation.

We've already got you covered. He's default.

Not that you have to keep him; his stats are...... Well, you've read the comics.

[Manly Biceps]

BTW, don't treat Rob too harsh in game. We think that his in-game character is somehow linked to his real world soul. All during testing he was getting weird twitches and pains whenever we got him killed in combat...

[ReaperX30]

You actually put him in the game? Sweet! could be like the comic relief of the game. Anyway it's a nice little touch. Thanks. I'm so getting this game.

[Rednusander]

The last of the comics are up! Go and be amazed as the adventures of Rob come to their inevitable conclusion!

[MrPopo]

I am sad to see these end, but they did end on an amusing note.

Stripes.

[AdrianMorales]

The comics were real funny... I wonder if the game will maintain the humor though...

[poiuiu]

If the game doesn't, I'm sure many players of the game will be able to; after all, imo, that's half the fun. :p
