Anyone excited for Maplestory Classic?
I have been building a gigantic playlist of albums, video essays, documentaries, and many more. I am prepared for the grind.I just don't know what class to play. I'm teetering between Page and Spearman.
I just want maparu story 2 back bros..
Will the tryhards ruin the game? I just want to grind and do PQ at my own pace.I fucking hated that when WoW Classic first launched many years ago.
>>722739124No life sweats are inevitable. But with how anticipated Classic is they likely won't make up the majority of the population like they do in private servers.
>>722738786Me! And, thankfully, it looks like the audience is there for it, so it's bound to be a smash if they don't fuck anything up in the design process.
>>722738786Your childhood is not coming back
>>722739124>Selling HS 5M/HR skeles/himesyes. yes they will
>>722739972>skeles/himesAssuming the playtest footage is to be believed, all we're getting is Victoria Island, meaning no 3rd job and no insanely busted training spots. At least not at first, meaning we have at least a few months of peak old school with some QoL.
>>722738786why cant they just scale the UI to fit the resolution? personally im very sceptical of what the actual content will be in the game, having played oldschool private servers for years.
>>722740190There's a chance they might. It still looks like ass in testing because it's probably bottom priority. It works as is, so don't fuck with it until they eventually have to.
>>722740108Who's got the fucking time for that?
>>722740369>he didn't play during the pre-Ossyria daysFake fan. Go do your dailies on reboot or whatever.
>>722739124Literally nobody else is going to play it so yes.
>>722740435I'll gladly nope out of eight plus hours per level from early on, thank you very much.
>>722738786Can I really find a gamer gf?
>>722740589You don't get it, and you clearly never will.
>>722738786Yes. I was a senior in high school when this came out in 2005 and that time was one of the best gaming experiences I've had. I played before 3rd job came out and quit shortly after 4th job released. I never made it to 100 but hitting 70 felt amazing.
>>722738786What will be the average age of players in a Maplestory classic server?
>>722740627See >>722739936
>>722740605I'm going Spearman in a desperate attempt to hopefully hook a cute azn cleric gf since I missed my chance back then because I wasted time playing I/L Mage.
>>722740108That sounds awful actually, that's beyond classic, it's prehistoric.
>>722738786As someone who was there for the original, no. Pre-Big Bang Maple was a slog and a half.
>>722740658I'm 36. I played from 2005 to 2009.
>>722738786release when
>>722740736I for one welcome the primitive start, because it gives Nexon the opportunity to unfuck the content that came after. NLC, Mushroom Shrine, Singapore, NLC, Maple Weapons, the entire 4th job in general, NLC, the worthless LUK stat on Magicians, Carnival PQ, did I mention fucking NLC? All of that shit broke the game in half (some more than others, NLC) when they were released and the power creep just kept skyrocketing. Starting from ground zero gives them a chance to do it properly.Granted, it's a long shot. This IS Nexon, after all. But Maplestory is still free to play at the end of the day so it's okay to have a little hope.
>>722740108Boars, zombie mushrooms, golems, drakes All good farming spots
>>722738786>tfw couldn't get a cute maplestory gf back in the dayScene girls were something else, man.
>Tfw you got the Maplestory GF>Tfw you'll play classic with your pregnant Maplestory wife
>>722738952>make a decade long research about the game>get stuck for another year in cube throwing stat casino
>>722741318Good, yes. But not absurdly good enough to eclipse absolutely everything else around it.
>>722739124>Will the tryhards ruin the game?Well, in the past there were still shitheads at PQs. But other than that I don't see how tryhards could ruin the game. Balance changes have already been confirmed, and it looks like Nexon is improving weak skills and historically underplayed jobs. So it's likely you won't have to worry about getting denied entry to PQs.
Making alts to farm glove attack scrolls and restarting that economy.
>>722742176Auto clickers probably don't exist anymore or they'll make a comeback. If you had AC you were treated like a king.
>>722742239>Auto clickers probably don't exist anymoreThere's billions of auto-clicker programs. People used to configure them/auto wigglers when WFH was more prevelant.
>>722738786never played maplestory as a kid because I was very anti-weebI played a lot of maplestory 2 when it came out and enjoyed thatshould I try this out?
How did worst korea manage to create such soulful art?
>>722742295Oh you're right. I was thinking of the dedicated programs that were created for auto clicking to get in to PQs. Those programs don't exist anymore probably.
>>722742239>>722742295>Auto clickersI forgot to mention that in one of the videos, it looked like two parties were able to enter KPQ on the same channel. So you don't have to worry about auto clickers, trackers, or any of that gay shit. The fact that they hired Nemi (the original lead dev for MapleStory) should tell you they're serious about making a good classic experience.
>>722742417Yeah there's no need for a dedicated Maplestory Clicker now, you can just record some button presses and tell the program to repeat.They even have them on phones, so they're very easy to make/use.
>>722742176>So it's likely you won't have to worry about getting denied entry to PQs.From the playtest footage, it looks to be more centric around party play rather than just PQs, which is a welcome change in my opinion. Solostory can get old fast.>>722742239>>722742295>>722742436>>722742486Not for nothing, but the playtest footage of them playing through KPQ seemed to let them into it instantly. There's a chance the PQs will be instanced instead of one per channel. Granted that might just be for the test period, but it's too soon to tell.
>>722740872I'm hoping they drop the bomb on the 25th with>"You can start playing Classic... right now!"Like that one game reveal from years ago that I can't seem to remember which game it was.
>>722742521>party playIf they actually add party play maps (exp buff for partying in specific maps) then that'll be really cool. Better yet, they should just rework the party EXP system so it's always worth partying in bigger maps. Some maps were big enough for 2 or 3 players to share.
>>722738786Wish I had time for it. Sounds fun but too busy these days
>>722742958>Surprise release after MapleconGod I hope not, I'm getting a new computer next month and my current one is on it's last legs. I do hope it comes out this year though.
>>722743128A lot of the pre-Big Bang maps were designed with party play in mind. But 4th job mage ults slowly mindbroke everyone into wanting all maps to be soloable leading to the homogenous map design we have in modern MS. Making every class highly mobile only compounded the issue.
>>722743538God I hope we never get 4th job in classic, or if we do they're highly reworked. I hope nexon realizes nobody liked that shit aside from jewish bishops and the paypiggies that paid them so they could play less maplestory.
>>722739124no one has the free time they had so they min max the small free time they have. this will only get worse.
What day are they revealing more info?
The only thing you all miss about pre-BB was the aesthetic
Warm take; MS peaked in ver 0.8X-0.9X with Ulu city added, Alien event, Aran, Evan, Ninja Castle DRPQ. and even a bit after Big Bang released with Mechanics. only thing that finally ruined it was pay2win cubes
>>722748070People for some reason think big bang introduced cubes when that was a later patch, I agree that big bang wasn't bad, also cubes aren't even bad when you play on a private server, the only problem with them was being in the cash shop.
