YO2 Final Good Bye

In a few hours after this we will not be able to play Yu-Gi-Oh! ONLINE 2 (DUEL EVOLUTION). I would like to give it a final review.

Good Point

1. Customization Avatar – You can get an avatar items from NPC and from the shop.

2. Map Area – You can walk around in 2 Yu-Gi-Oh World [original and GX].

3. Mileage Point – (MP) are a lot better than previous game (yo1) not only you got more point from it (X10 in YO2 [YO1 you got only 1 MP for each code enter]) you can get single card and you can use it to get an avatar item and opening Discontinued Booster Pack.

4. Improving Event from Yu-Gi-Oh Online – EX -  Duelist Trial Prize card from 6-7 win become 4-5 win and you can open discontinued booster pack after you got a prize cards + more hour to play, Gunslinger = 1 more hour to play.

5. Introduce a new events – (Evolution Match and Ultimate Match a new match duel system for Yu-Gi-Oh Online) also there is a Special Time konami hold a Duelpass Campaign to let player get more random card from duelpass.

6. Introduce NPC (CPU) – You can duel them and get Avatar Item they were wearing + Deck Recipe they are using (Only Deck Recipe for loading not a cards).

7. Duelpass are a lot better than before – You get a structure for the first time you enter duelpass code and then get 1 of 6 random cards, This is really good compare to yo1 that you can get 1 of 5 random card and it help a lot of beginner and starter.

8. Introduce Title – You can assign a Title for Your Character and can collect Title.

9. Better Duel Log System – Not only you can watch it but now you can collect it and add to your collection, You can also watch Server Duel Log and YOC Tournament Duel Log.

10. You have your own room and can decorate it with Duel Disk you get.

11. You can see a Percentage of each Booster Pack you open.

12. You can Customize a Duel Text Message at Duel Option.

13. Seperate Tab Chat and D-Mail you can sent-d-mail and chat with other while you are trading and can chat with only your team member.

14. Introduce Team System – You can now form a team the benefit of it is to be able to use a Team Chat Tab to talk only with your team member even you and your team member are in different lobby.

15. Introduce Card Shop – You can open booster pack, get single card, get an avatar item there by spending your MP (Mileage Point).

16. Introduce a new Booster Pack type – (The Basic Set, Expansion Pack, Theme Pack you can get all of the cards in this booster pack by spending your MP).

17. Introduce a new duelpass system – Paypal Duelpass, SMS Duelpass, Web Money Duelpass.

Bad Point

1. Pay Per Duel (This is the reason why people don’t play this game, It’s expensive you lose your point every time you duel so you can’t duel much in this game unless you are rich).

2. Trade – There is no way to know when someone are already in trade screen.

3. Duel Log – Duel Log Description always disappear after log out and you can’t save YOC Preliminary Duel Log.

4. Deck Construction Screen don’t have a search key to filter cards (but you can use a text search to filter cards by typing it) – EX = Filter by Special Summon, Fusion, Destroy Effect etc…

5. Team System are only good for Team Chat (it should have more feature).

6. YOC always have a problem (like you got kick out or can’t compete in etc…)

7. You can’t choose how many booster pack you want to open at the shop if you want to open another you need to select it again.

8. Paypal Duelpass are only for US and Japan – This is not fair for a lot of people who live in other country (Paypal duelpass is the cheapest duelpass you can find).

9. Lack of update and announcement – This is the most important thing when it’s comes to online game (remember how long we stuck with Light of Destruction) If they are going to release YO3 they should announce it earlier (Konami Announce it 1 month before Beta Test).

10. You can’t customize a duel speech in this game while nintendo ds can.

Yu-Gi-Oh Online 2 Duelevolution introduce and improve a lot of things from Yu-Gi-Oh Online 1 but it’s still not a perfect game there are a lot of bad point, If 100 is a perfect score I will give it 65 score.

Let’s hope Yu-Gi-Oh Online 3 will get rid all of this bad point. Now It’s time to move to a new version.

*Note – Mileage Point (MP) will not transfer to Yu-Gi-OH Online 3 If you have it better use them all.

*Note – There are some npc konami planning to release in YO2 but they cancel it and make Yu-Gi-OH Online 3. here an unrelease NPC (For Someone who can’t remember).

YGO3 Duel accelerator

Finally news of the next incarnation for Yu-Gi-Oh! online from v-jump scan (credit shinji116)

Here is a translation of the above (credit: Saias)

1. The Beta Test will happen on the 18/12/2009 and the official release will be sometime in 2010 (no date confirmed yet)
2. They will add alot of new features into the game, with 3D animation from our avatars and more special effects from cards.
3. Further details about Yu-Gi-Oh Online Duel Accelerator and when the game will be officially released will be posted at http://www.yugioh-online.net on the 18/12/2009.
4. Alot of the new features will be based on the Yu-Gi-Oh World Championships 2009 game on Nintendo DS.
5. Duels from the Beta Testing will be free but there is no indication on how long that free period and beta test will last. Also everyone can take part in the Beta testing.
6. All cards from YGO2 will be transfered to the YGO3 Database, which explains the 3 hour maintainance.
7. Also from what i can gather you can open 2-3 packs at a time but i don’t know if those packs are new packs (Pack 49 and beyond).
Thats all i can gather from the Scans. Please feel free to add onto what i have translated so far.

From talk around the net this version seems to be more like a ported version of the PSP game, which would mean Konami would be abandoning continued development from the original “Power of Chaos”, and concentrate more on parallel programming.
So this version will be heavily influenced by Tag Force.
Looks like the animation in Tag Force will be implemented and there are some 3D monster animations as well as character animations, also talks about a card point system.
Notable from the field shot above is the addition of a chat window.

Not sure how they will maintain existing avatar clothing and items, however it appears you have the option to minimise them anyway !

Also speculation that the current event system would be overhauled. Competition and individuals are more often ….

How To Display Cards from Specific Pack in Deck Construction Screen

You may not know but You can filter cards in Deck Construction screen by Booster Pack and it will display only Specific Packs Cards you have.

First You need to go to Deck Construction Screen and click on the icon you see in this picture (It’s search card by text icon) then type Like this “Pack 48”

Click Yes After that you will see only Booster Pack 48 cards (only cards you have)

You can change number 48 to other number to display only pack cards you have from specific Booster Pack. This is very good to filter only pack cards you want to see how many did you have, Good for Collectors,

Eveytime you want to filter cards by booster pack you need to click on Numer of Total cards you have before clicking on the card search icon

then repeat the first step again If you don’t you may not see anything.

Note : word to filter cards by specific booster pack are different in each country, “Pack 48” is working and “パック48” (It mean Pack 48 in Japanese) also working for Japanese, I don’t know which word working for German and other country.
