Online Pass
- need 1 online pass for every 1 Sony Entertainment Account
- 1 pass is included with each retail disc
- for the download version, the pass will automatically be applied to the account that downloaded the game
- will be able to buy multiple passes for multiple accounts
- online pass introduced because players complained about too many sub accounts
- struggled about whether to implement an online pass or not
- because of how pairing online matches works it would be pointless if one person had lots of sub accounts
- additional online passes are 1,000 yen



In short, if you want to play Gundam online you have to redeem an online pass on a Japanese PSN account. You cannot play online on an account that has not redeemed an online pass. But Namco is doing this to stop skilled players from making new accounts and playing against low-ranked players! It's for your benefit! It is all for you Damien!


There are also two free DLC units on day one but they're intended as introductory units for new players. The game comes out at the end of the month.

There's some real audacity in thinking people will believe that excuse for a second.

There was another zinger in how they say the vision of the PS3 port was to give us the complete version of Full Boost from the arcade but then go on to say they understand we'd like the custom gauges and operators so those are going to be sold as DLC. But someone in that thread mentioned operators may have cost real money in the arcade version as well so I left it out. At least NacmoBandai is throwing us a bone and making the Haro operator free!

That definitive talk is extra rich considering Maxi Boost is coming to arcades in March.

Anyway, I better be able to redeem this on my NA account because that's the one I have my 100% Platinum EXVS data. Bragging rights!

Hmm, puts a bit of a damper on things. My bud and I have been pretty hype for this.

You almost certainly can't. Online passes are usually implemented as DLC you download from a PSN store, and that means it'll only be on the JPSN shop if you buy a Japanese copy.

Wish I'd remembered to grab a 10,000en PSN card on my way out of the country...

My copy just arrived. My ID while playing offline is PooglyWoogly and online will be JaDrem. Feel free to add me if you want to play online sometime.

My copy's in the mail, might have to make a new JP account because my current one has a really dumb name.

EDIT: I JUST FIXED THIS! JP account is now GROBDA-Type11.
