General: Hal's Radio Broadcast
(Information started on October 7th)
A couple times in Japan, the GMs took messages from players to broadcast using the orange/black banner to the entire server. The idea finally gets a chance to fly here as a local edition of Hal's Radio Broadcast. The deadline for submissions has unfortunately already ended by the time of this post (it was October 12th), however they'll be displayed this coming Friday (October 17th).
The times are:
Morning Broadcast - 10:00 AM PDT
Afternoon Broadcast - 3:00 PM PDT
Evening Broadcast - 8:00 PM PDT
They should run for half an hour or less each time.

General: Update for October 10th
(Information started on October 6th)
First of note is that Japan asked users to send in information regarding the recent lag that many players on our side have noticed since Sega moved offices.
As for the update:
- More items at The Collector (Located on Parum in West Holtes City)
* This includes everything listed at PSUP from PSU Disc 48 to Transfer: Neudaiz
* GH490 is also one of the big additions here
- Casino rotation
- New weapons
It appears there were a couple unmentioned updates. The recent update to White Beast seems to have made it in as well as some drops to be used in future exchange missions. I'll make an update when these are sorted out.
Here's an odd note: JP retroactively put this post up dated for the 4th even though it appeared after the English page was updated.
Update: Maintenance ended and no additional changes were listed.

Japan: PS2/PC Update for October 9th
(Information started on October 3rd)
To quote EspioKaos:
Seasonal eventSo it would seem they are finally pushing out a new difficulty for various missions (S3). There are still actually a handful of 'normal' missions that don't have S2 ranks yet. I'm guessing they'll show up in future GBRs.
Halloween returns! From October 9 through November 6, decorations will be up and the Rappy Latans will be out! [PSUv1]
GBR: Moatoob Boost Road 2nd
Starting October 9 and running through November 20, the following missions will be part of the latest GBR.
* Desert Stronghold (new mission)
* Desert Terror
* Desert Goliath
* Rogues' Shortcut
* Stolen Weapon
Since the new mission is AOTI exclusive, PSUv1 players will not be able to increase their boost rate in the current GBR. (sth note)
New mission
Desert Stronghold C-S2 - W. Kugu Base Camp to Galenigare Mine area
A new RELICS site that not even the rogues knew about has been discovered in the far reaches of the West Kugu Desert. Destroy the Rygutasses who protect the RELICS and investigate the site.
New mission difficulties
The following missions will receive S3 difficulties.
* Desert Terror
* Desert Goliath
* Rogues' Shortcut
* Stolen Weapon
S3 is exclusive to AOTI players, so you must have the expansion to access this difficulty, even in PSU missions.
Mission adjustments
White Beast is being adjusted to further combat AFK leveling.
New items
Many new weapons, line shields, and room goods are being added.
Reform ticket (sth note)
The Halloween room decoration ticket will be available from October 9th to November 6th [PSUv1]
System updates
* Adjustments will be made to the Photon Fortune for all races and sexes. [PSUv1]
* Item drops for some enemies in AOTI missions will be changed.

Podcast: PSU Community Podcast Season 2 Episode III
(Information started on October 5th)
The interviewee this time around just happens to be Edward. This is the guy that handles much of the billing support for Sega. If you've sent in a support ticket for the PS2/PC version of PSU, you've probably already had some communication with him.
In other news, it seems that Iceman is moving again and they'll need a temporary co-host to step in for a bit. Send a message to PSU_Castor if you're interested.
Awhile ago I switched all the podcast related posts over to a new tag (Podcast instead of Community). The links haven't changed, so no need to update any if you have them. I meant to do this earlier on, but better late than never.
