Maplestory Classic Beta starting in less than 20 hours.What are your hopes and fears?
was just about to make this thread lolneed my comfi safe space
What's the best place to watch the beta test tomorrow?Any insights on what nexon plans to do with the release schedule? Will they launch with pirates? What about monster carnie? If not, do they have any plans to roll it out in the future? Or will they actually make original content, like they did with osrsI have no idea how pozzed nexon is since I haven't played any of their games since like 2013, but if it'll become anything like what I've seen the state of numaplestory to be then I think I'll just opt out entirely and stick with private servers
>>736940861hopes:>build/gear variety now that dexless/lukless is dead>instanced PQs>the return of large exploration styled mapsfears:>Falling into the same problems as mid-late post bb>EXP bonus effects like x2s, or god forbid link skills.>Leeching being a problem againI have more but I'm going need a better sample since it's unlikely I'll be able to get into the beta test.
I swear every time classic is discussed, whether it's here or on the Maplestory discord, 90% of the discussion is skill change autism.Like christ can't you autists talk about other shit?
>>736942054nigger heil hitler
How can they start the beta when they haven’t even sent me my code?
>hi>can you give me some mesars plz?
>>736941804>Leeching being a problem againFrom what I read, you stop getting exp if you don't use a skill after 10 seconds
Check out my suggestion lads:I think exp rates and quality of item drops should be adjusted relative to the strength of the monster or the difficulty of the map.Something I never liked about the old days was how the most popular maps to grind on were usually "world tour" maps. Mysterious Path 3, Haunted House Vanity Room, Entrance to the Spooky World, Encounter with the Buddha, etc. All of these maps were flat, easy to navigate, had high spawn rate, mostly easy to survive, and had inflated exp rates. As a result, most of the playerbase competed heavily for these maps, which rendered a large portion of the world obsolete.In my opinion, maps like Ludibrium: Forgotten Path of Time <1> and Warped Path of Time <1> should give more rewarding exp than Mysterious Path 3. Soul Teddies and Buffies are more dangerous enemies than Slimys and Selkie Jr, have greater range with their magic attack, and more importantly, their maps are much more challenging to navigate.I think that should be the general philosophy behind the allocation of exp rewards. Challenging maps like the Ludibrium Clock Tower, Drake's Meal Table, The Cave of Trial III should yield the best rewards, while flatter, easier maps should be less rewarding.Of course, if Crimsonwood Keep is in Classic, that should retain it's inflated exp. The Path of Peril was the hardest map in the game to grind on, and should also be the most rewarding.
Be honest. How much are you whaling out?
>>736940861I WILL get an invite tomorrow.
>>736944187depends on if there's an endgame. im already seeing some autists in the discord signaling they will be upset if there are more bosses than zakum and horntail
>>736943676sure F2>*teleports behind you*>*unzips ballsack*heh, nuthin personal
>>736941736This image gives me stomach butterflies since they remind me of my maple gfs when I was 13...
>>736944290>bosses than zakum and horntailIsn't Pink Bean pre BB too though? I know he's tied to Black Mage but that lil nigga is a mascot of this game.
Did anyone here actually get an invite? No one I know did
>>736944558Yeah but very close to BB so the nostalgiakids dont like it. Potential and cubes is also preBB.
>>736944558Honestly they should just go the osrs route and add in unique osrs bosses you wont find in rs3
>>736944827not very, he came with temple of time, before cygnus knights even
>>736940861Hopes>get an e-mailFears>not get an e-mail
>>736943676I literally look like this.
>>736944290>im already seeing some autists in the discord signaling they will be upset if there are more bosses than zakum and horntailThose same nigs didn't play in the EARLY Big Bang days because otherwise they would know what the ACTUAL problems were>Cubing/potentials (ppbb and the only reason GMS could clear PB before BB)>Streamlined maps and nuking Victoria Island an actual HUGE NEGATIVE of BB>Full screen aoes like Genesis, BB slapped a cooldown on all of them but they shouldn't have existed in the first place honestly.Was Pink Bean poorly designed? Yes absolutely, but the bosses weren't the big issues even if they are admittedly repetitive "hold the button to attack" hp sponges.
>>736945174Most of the PQ bosses were designed pretty well. Why they decided to go full retard with the raid bosses (+ Pianus) is a mystery.
>>736945327I swear a different team designed the PQs compared to everything else in Maplestory.
>>736940861Wait what?! I didn't get an invite..fuck
>>736940861>hopesLet me fucking play the closed test>fearsI don't get to fucking play the closed test
>>736945531event goers only, for now
>>736944187The only time I'll ever spend money on this game is if they do a collab with hololive. Otherwise it'll be Heroic-style where I just chill and go at my own pace.
>>736945561
>>736945174If there's one thing modern maple did right it's their bosses. Design aside, the mechanics are actually fun and don't amount to just "stand still and hold button"
>still no invite
>>736944558>>736944290With them confirming that Ride or Die is going to be part of classic, they literally have a convenient plot device to just slap in bosses from the real game or new ones entirely without any story implications since they just come from a different dimension.
>>736945736Not to mention that the big bad of Ride or Die can "control how strong these boss monsters are" too. They already have the framing to allow for scaling of maplestory bosses.
>>736945736Pink Bean has nothing to do with Black Mage. His presence in the game was just a casualty of someone trying to summon the Black Mage early. So lore-wise they could come up with any sort of bullshit reason for him to be a boss.Hope his fight isn't complete dogwater like it was back then though.
>>736944187>whaleNever gonna happen. But I might spend a little money on cool cosmetics or something.
>>736945561>>736945642Where is this from?
>>736945801>Not to mention that the big bad of Ride or Die can "control how strong these boss monsters are" too. They already have the framing to allow for scaling of maplestory bosses.seduceNot like PPBB didn't already do this with Chaos Zakum and Chaos Horntail but level scaled bosses of increasing difficulties would definitely allow for more replayability.
>>736944187Do they still do the thing where 90% of the shit in the store expires 3 months after buying?
>>736945934Only GMS does this horrendous shit, so there's a 50/50 chance that it carries over to classic. I hope to god it doesn't though.
>>736944423I want to play, anyone wanna play with me?
>>736945873www.nexon.com/maplestory/news/general/39378/sign-ups-are-closed-for-maple-story-classic-world-closed-online-test
>>736945934>>736945982They stopped doing that but for some reason they keep all the old shit that had those expiration still in the cash shop because the GMS cash shop just sucks donkey dick and would be completely empty otherwise
>>736941804>build variety is killing the option to go statless/low stat and associated equipment optimizationsyou'll autoassign everything into your primary stat like numaple and use the highest level eq available without even thinking
>>736946230Build variety was literally just either normal stat distribution or luckless/dexless. There wasn't any build variety in classic maple just the illusion of choice and if you made the wrong choice you bricked your character and had to pay real money to fix it.
>Nothing from post-BB gets added to Maplestory and all P2W mechanics either have free alternatives or don't exist (i.e. potentials and cubes no longer exist and pets or XP cards are given for free during events)BUT>Brand-new content following Classic's design philosophy gets added and expanded on Do you accept it?
>>736946608most people weren't doing statless in classic, they were full sending dex without even thinking about itfull dexless was for the rich and everyone else who cared just went as low as they could afford/toleratewidespread minmaxing only dawned with private server faggots
new original boss screencap just dropped in the maplestory discord
>>736946903it's not even a downsideprebb endgame is dogwater
>>736945982only GMS? what the fuck thats so shit
The debate continues..
Ayo so you're saying we can kill snails and shit?
i hope for 4th jobs, especially with bishops they remove genesis and add in more party buff skills. because there is no reason why a support class should be nuking and entire map
>>736948415>retail faggot doesn't understand that people liked long exp grinds that gave meaning to levelingHe can just play retail maplestory. They are going to keep it running for troglodytes like him. The rest of us desire classic slow leveling with small damage numbers, Nemi understands thats why they are taking up the project.
>>736945659yea as long as they dont fill the screen with inane shit and dps checks
>>736948650the argument started from someone (me) asking if it would be a good idea to have aqua road PQ (an early post-BB pq) in Classic
>>736946903I choose option b because needing pets suck
>>736946048>for some reasonbecause if they retroactively made those permanent, everyone who bought them previously would feel slighted. even if you retroactively added those items back into peoples' inventories, they'd still be mad, because they wasted that NX on an item that'd get back for free later not knowing that, and the chain just kind of continues. you can't win in a meaningful way. the solution is just to change practices going forward while not changing the item people previously spent money on.classic world can just change it on launch and inarguably make easy money doing it. if it isn't like that in the beta, give feedback. give feedback preemptively and just say you won't spend money on expiring cosmetics.
I think items need to be dropped clientsided/instanced like in maplestory 2 to avoid boss drop snipes.
>>736949167>clientsided/instancedAnon these are two completely different things.Clientsided drops would completely and utterly ruin the game.
I want to play Pirates...
GIVE IT UP FOR DAY 4!DAY 4 NO CODES!
This image shows the order in which content was released in Maplestory.
>>736949537Huh, I must've started in 2005 then, since there was no Windia. The oldest quest completion I have is from 2006 though.
>>736949537The internet really did start to go to shit in 2007 and 2008
You know none of you are getting a code tomorrow right?
>>736948415not reading all that but the first line is pretty accurate, as much as people hate BB, early BB was still very similar to pre-BB, nothing like the flashy shit in modern MapleStory, hell it took me quite a while to get to level 100 post-BB, not nearly as much as in pre-BB but it still wasn't a breeze
I forgot to apply for a code so yea
>>736949950we're not getting codes until the 16th, correct. you are very observant.
>>736949950my dad works at nexon he's giving me and everyone ITT except u a code
>>736949950every time I see this image it makes me wonder how big are claws supposed to be
>>736940861>hopesnone>fearstoo many to listfuck nexon
>>736949537>Pirates>2008I'm misremembering something because I could have sworn they were there a lot earlier.
>>736950097Not that big. Claws were technically supposed to be similar to "blade-resistant gloves" similar to what meatcutters use. That way they don't get cut when throwing their stars."Claws" is just a mistranslation.
>>736948650Except the grind in retail maplestory literally takes longer than in old maple so your "genius" take actually completely misses the mark
For me it's Ludi [jazz]https://youtu.be/g5tHrB_cTFY
>>736940861>hopesno p2w>fearsp2w and temporary NX itemsrealtalk I think temporary NX items are possibly THE most jewish MTX invention ever... paying money for a thing you want but every 3 months? christ what is it a car lease?
>>736949537Nothing past 2007 should be in Classic.
>>736950226For me, it's Vallora.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyp4mlh3abI
>the bowmaster guide I used back in the day is far gone>can't even find it on wayback machineman...
big meaty claws
Should the resistance classes be in classic at any point? Reworked and rebalanced for oldschool gameplay of course.Battle Mage?
>>736950290Microtransactions were always jewish enshittification strategy. Corporates eat whilst customers weep.
>>736950580Battle Mage is really cool but Wild Hunter is the most lamest class in the entire game, worse than blaze wizard
>Still no inviteAll hope is lost.
>>736950824Even worse than Dual Blade?
>>736951024Way worse.Dual Blades have their own different issues but being extremely lame wasn't one of them.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6L1PLMErNf0
>>736950824i refuse to believe it could be lamer than a page
>>736949537When was pink bean added?
>>736951161Pages are fine in their own right. Wild Hunters are just really bad archers that have the clunkiness of a mechanic and the range of a corsair.
most underrated classic bgmhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0_8MftVy90Not a memorable rhythm, but damn does it set the tone for an epic PQ.
for just 200$ you can play tomorrow too
>>736951795not even worth the risk of having the person somehow report the code as stolen and getting your Nexon account permanently banned or some shit
>>736950580Battle Mage is fundamentally a classic-tier class. They're like Bandits but with Teleport and a bunch of passives. It wouldn't take much to make them in line with the classic classes. Auras are really cool.Wild Hunter and Mechanic are kinda dumb, not gonna lie. I'd rather not see them, but with a ton of tweaking they could probably work as classic tier classes.Demon Slayer, absolutely not.
>>736949537A rough edit of what I would to see adjusted/removed if these ever made it into classic maplestory
>>736951915
>>736951926>kill wintradingI think it needs more than that. My issue with CPQ was that it obsoleted LPQ. Even without wintrading it was still objectively better EXP/h wise.
>>736950290There is a possibility of the 90d rented cosmetics coming back. It would also be a good money milker for them to then slap permanent NX etc. in cosmetic boxes where you can't choose what you get, but are pushed to buy em due to being permanent. This is just guess work though and I'd hope no p2w and everything being permanent aswell, but it is what it is with this company.>>736951795I need that 200 bucks for NX on launch.
>>736952029Nobody cares about your shitty discord
>>736952029Lucky Seven was broken too. And they (seemingly) fixed it. It could work. Obviously some of their overpowered skills would need to be looked at.
>>736952063>yourIt's the official maplestory discord ya dumbass. They actually have a suggestions channel there and they pass on good suggestions to the developers
if theres anything I hate more than nexon and numaplefags is korean whales and korean normalfags. Either they twisted the game into an abomination or couldnt just let the game die.
>>736952091Okay so go back there then, this is 4chan not discord.
>>736952145No, it's still relevant to this thread, brainlet.
>>736952030I'm under the assumption that PQs are moving away from EXP incentives and more towards reward incentives so the EXP in theory is already covered
>>736940861can I still sign up?
>>736952167You going to post fucking reddit screenshots next then? Again go back to your discord if you love it so much
>>736952195Yes.
>>736952091>They actually have a suggestions channel there and they pass on good suggestions to the developersthe biggest bald faced lie in the internet ladies and gentlemen
bros?
>>736952250Cry.It's relevant and on-topic.
>>736952271
>>736952195>>736952253nope, you can't.I doubt I was getting in anyway, and I feel like nexon is going to fuck it up
>>736952373YOOOO I GOT MY KEY
>>736952373we fucking won
>>736952414If it's so relevant then why not just go back there and talk to them instead? Nobody here cares about your discord but if you like it then go back there
>>736952373Got my key thanks
>>736952132>basilmarkettakes me back..
>>736952373Checked my email about FUCKING TIME
i got no email fuck :(
It seems my code hasn't arrived yet, any moment now
Can't tell if you fuckers are lying or not.
got mine B)
Just started a big argument about zakum helmets on the maplestory discord lads.Some are furious it got nerfed, some are insisting it's a good decision.
Codes won't get send until the 16th you idiots they literally stated this on the sign up page
OMFG NO FUCKING WAY
>>736951795>With klarnaHoly basedola
YOOOOOOO
anyone do the balrog pq? it came a lot later but i had a lot of fun with it. if you brought a hero's gladius with you, you got a +30 atk/matk buff for the entire raid. i think it would serve as a good beginner boss raid for modern classic. something that isn't small like a field boss but something that isn't as big as zakumhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_vidQISi7I
the people who didnt get accepted will for sure buy these
YAAAAAAAMEEEEEEEEEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>in less than 20 hours.news to me, excited to play.
>>736954120GIWTWM
>>736953583yeah that 3 minutes of it not taking any damage to "test" you was bullshit
>>736953907
>>736954321Those bonus stats aren't the right color to represent stats from scrolls because an item this strong will never be made in reg servers. I do find it funny how some people who are fed up with the game's gambling for your item to upgrade or possibly boom are saying that classic will make equip enhancement a lot easier when that has 10% to succeed 100% boom chance on failure with no equip trace to fall back on.
>>736953907they're unironically too homoerotic
>>736954463what happened to this guild?
>>736941736>best place to watch betatwitch will 100% be the best place, if it's like any other nexon game released in the last 5 years they're paying a bunch of people to stream it, they did it for arc raiders, khazan, finals, maple idle (lol), and more. Maybe that's for when regular people get access though? But a lot of the big streamers are playing tomorrow cause they all went to maplecon last year.>what are they doing with release scheduleno one knows, anyone saying they know is lying, they have said over and over they're targetting 2026, that's it. Nothing specific. >will they launch with piratesno, vic island ONLY, not even 3rd job based on leaked files. no pirates no orbis no ludi, none of it, they're basically starting from scratch. We don't know cadence of updates, we can only assume they will add existing content back in (it would be stupid not to), but they are making VERY broad changes to nearly every piece of content in the game. All classes got pretty sizable balance passes.>original contentyes, there's a new area between ellinia and dungeon/sleepywood.>how pozzedhonestly not that pozzed, most of the hugely illegal shit happens in korea because no one fights back, GMS is the only region to keep reboot when nexon tried to force p2w on the west. It's the whole reason classic is being made. I'm sure they'll have p2w, not saying they won't but I think they're going to be a little more reserved, at least to start. Probably loot boxes for cosmetics, because they sell gangbusters. Probably gachapon, cause that sells gangbusters (and they can frontload it with non-p2w things, no scrolls, just chairs and maybe mounts if they're backporting them in this early? Doubt it but who can say).If you don't like new maple though then yeah, whatever. Pservers won't really do you a whole lot better, the whole experience is hp wash, alt bishop, grind. classic is hopefully going to change that based on what we have seen.
>>736954560If that one is from a pserver, it's buriedif it's the one on bera, some /v/irgin has it and posted in a thread a couple weeks ago.
israel??
>>736954605speaking of that, why were so many of the fm guilds full of israelis lol, or at least that's how it was in windia then I saw it again in zenith
>>736954605NEIN
so it's agreedwe all take the vip taxi and meet up in sleepywood
>>736954605Growing up I thought isreal was a place in India and anybody saying "isreal??" was just an indian trying to find other indians.
>>736954741does the vip taxi exist in this state of the game?
>>736954741Me? I'll be at Kerning City, home.
will classic maple still have the gay profanity filter
>>736954793yes it's using the same modern client just different loaded assets, same as how classic wow started.
Are the emails sent out yet or did I get fucked?
>>736954774bro we all know what youre doing going """"afk"""" next to shumi
>>736954752I didn't learn what "BR" actually meant until years after I stopped playing.

>>736954916see you in december lmao
>>736954491they should just remove failed scrolls taking up a slot... make them harder to get or whatever... but failing a roll taking up a chance is just so Korean I can't even...nexon just full of masochists, even in old days with vindishit fucking up weapon rolls your shit explodes

Datamine seems to indicate there will be 30 channels and one server being Windia(NA). This is atleast for the closed test.>>736954793It does have a profanity filter in place, yes. I do remember seeing from the maplecon test footage that you can type "gay" without it being censored however, but the usual ones were.
>>736954659The free market was promised to them 2000 years ago
>>736955080>but failing a roll taking up a chance is just so Korean I can't even...nexon just full of masochists, even in old days with vindishit fucking up weapon rolls your shit explodesSo they could introduce white scrolls which were a fucking colossal pain in the ass to get, no this does not fucking justify failing rolls leading to taking up scroll slots.
Press F to pay respects
Showa Town in Maplestory Classic - Yay or nay?
>>736955651Yesjust make sure we get the non-censored one and we're golden.
What if all the new areas in the game are just "old" versions of existing locations in modern maplestory?Like grandis and the early formations of arcane river and things like that
>>736955651

>>736957075They changed how INT and Magic Attack work, lukless magicians just don't work anymoreFor dexless sins, we'll see
>>736957075maple weapons aren't the only thing that made those builds work, especially mages who technically didn't even need them
>>736956636>clerics aren't money printers anymore>Xless builds are pointless now>hp washing has been removedthese are all based btw>nexon broke sin's kneecapsthe powerlevel is basically the same, it just seems worse because you don't know the full scope of the changes elsewhere yet. you just can't have your busted dexless build anymore.
3 hours until codes get sent out......
>no invite it's over
>>736956925Me too mainly for the items to flex on people but ill just wait for the open beta when they bring back the maple beta bandana hopefully.
is there a non zero chance of classic maple getting guild/personal housing?
>>736957284I really wish Nexon didn't abandon personal homes.It's so comfy customizing your own place only to realize there's so many fucking unneeded limitations and bugs that it's frustrating to just exist inside of there.
I remember playing an archer way back in 2008 or something, didn't know much about the game, never did anything interesting but my friend wants to try it.Gonna make a cleric or whatever the healer is called as I enjoy support classes more these days, I just wanna dump some time into something that my friends also play.
they better add more shit to el nathcomfiest town but nothing to do
I can't wait to play Hero...
>25% chance to stun for 3 seconds>No immunity This sounds insanely broken
>>736957387Cleric is going to be a pretty safe bet for that sort of playstyle, especially if you consider the future of 3rd job and 4th job in case you would play for that long. They will likely change skills around a lot(hopefully no HS), but cleric will definitely stay as the support type and get skills according to that playstyle is what I believe.Granted you should pick a class you like no matter what if you plan to play for a long time as rerolling later is going to be rather brutal if you already invested hundreds of hours into a character.>>736957268nta, but I'll just assume you're Californian or you paid for access if you have those rings. You'll never convince me you got lucky and if you did I'm still going to sulk since I'm not going to be picked and have OG cool status never ever.
>>736957632what would you guys add to each town to make them more interesting?
>>736957749sex
>>736957695I play healer a lot in other games, but I don't think I ever did group quests in Maplestory so I have no clue how healing works and I'm probably gonna watch a youtube video on how they play.Hopefully I stick with it, I've done a lot of GW2, WoW and FF14 over the years, playing on and off but I really enjoy playing healer in raids and even just random dungeons. I enjoy making the health bar go up.
I didn't wanna play in the beta anyway...
>>736956636sins will be fine, they're still extremely mobile, they're still (most likely) good at dpsthey just are actively hacking away at sins ability to scale with anything and everythingthey split off rage/apples into 'attack power' which functions like secondary stat (right now it's at 1.0x in the equation, same as secondary stat, but there's no way it remains 1.0x since that'd be essentially uselessthey nerfed its crit skill and now everybody gets a little token critindirectly, sins received a buff with them going in the direction of 'no washing'since everything is about stacking 6 homies and grinding til sunup, sins will have an easier time actually getting to 70/120
>no code
>>736957749Thematically-appropriate questlines>Perion uncovers a dungeon cave with claustrophobic paths and high-damaging enemies that are grouped together along the way>Ellinia has to defend against raids headed by Malady monsters who are trying to steal a gem from one of the fairies requiring the player to teleport between areas (with a map teleport for non-mages that's more cumbersome) >Henesys has a jump-quest style training grounds created by Athena where players need to climb and time their attacks against flying targets while avoiding obstacles >Kerning City has sneaking missions that can also be completed through violence against humanoid monsters a la ninja castle, with the mission being to steal a certain item>Lith Harbor has the guide require you to visit each town on Victoria Island and "start" each of these questlines, with it updating as any more locations (like the Nautilus) appear
>>736957749henesys has a mini game room, how about have the town have minigames only you can play there? Like collecting enough snail shells and bet on snail races or snail chesskerning city should have an underground dungeon that randomly fast travels you to other placesellinia has remnants of ellin pq/tower of ozperion should be more integrated with gpq/sharenia(?)
It's still in Beta? Christ.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPGT2T2lJeshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cv8dKeV9MYhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpZodLw9OO4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNrdNd0voNYI found old post early-BB videos which had expeditions to chaos Horntail which weren't really any different from preBB's 30 man parties back in the day really supporting the idea that early big bang had the right direction of keeping the social aspects while trimming down the grind somewhat. What fucking happened??? What update fucking obliterated this dynamic for good????Big Bang gets so much shit for all the wrong reasons except for Victoria Island.
>>736958269>What fucking happened??? What update fucking obliterated this dynamic for good????Korean minmaxing autism, which is precisely why Classic is region locked to GMS.
>>736958463Evidently the Koreans don't like it either if Maplelands is anything to go by
>>736958269it happened little by little and even when we told nexon to stop they didn't. By 5th job the coffin was already set. 5th job rejuvenated the game but confirmed all the worse aspects of maple. But they didn't care, they saw player numbers and all the avenues of increasing dps by buying nx and then it was all over
>>736957958I've also played a lot of GW2 and FF14 with some other mmos sprinkled in there throughout the years. Cleric isn't really a "healer" in a sense that this game doesn't have the usual trinity like in GW2 or atleast when I played it.A lot of the classes tend to have a party buff to incentive actually playing together. This early on with the launch most likely only having 1st and 2nd job however, makes this a bit different as some received their game changing buffs later in 3rd job or 4th job and depending how they change the game this could also be played out differently.Cleric however I do believe will retain that feeling of having useful buffs and later down the line in the future receiving stuff like door that lets you use it to go back to town real quick and then come back to the spot you were in and potentially ressurection which can be really valuable in bosses. Healing might or not play a role atleast early on in bosses where it does actually help save up a ton of potions, but I'm not sure if they want to make clerics just hold down heal at bosses for an hour and do nothing else.They seem to be making big enough changes to want shift up how the game played and not go back to the same old.All in all I think Cleric is a safe choice if you want a more support type of a character and I don't think they'll shift too much away from keeping that role in the future aswell.
>>736958606if they really cared they would have sent two trucks to nexon hq a long time ago
kusoge
>>736958950good, +60% to both HP and MP was fucking broken
>>736958787I'm guessing its because KMS gets far better support than GMS ever did in its lifetime, so everything was perceived as okay until they finally saw they were getting scammed. They definitely should have sent trucks far sooner a long time ago.GMS at the end of the day is a bandaged/duct tape abomination of JMS with stuff trickling over from CMS/TMS nowadays. I don't think Classic MS should cut out the region exclusive content provided it has its own codebase and isn't subject to the whims of KMS like what happens nowadays.
>>736958950sorry gays no more free ride
can you still brick yourself leveling the wrong skills?
>>736959091from the way things look, yes
>>736959091I will level lucky seven as a bandit and there is nothing you can do to stop me
>>736959091Yes, unless you pay
>>736959059Why did you expel everyone, madwolf?
>>736958761I mean to be fair, in those other games you aren't just healing, you can DPS as well. But I understand what you're getting at and I knew it was gonna be different style thanks to my friend.
was kaling a good boss?
>>736959091It seems possible, yes. Not necessarily "bricked unplayable", but still struggle because of not knowing points were limited or how the system works.I think the reason why they are going this path again is because they can release 3rd job and 4th job later. This means that anyone who actually plays the game is going to SP reset the 1st and 2nd and later 3rd job skills and shift points from attack skills to passives/buffs instead.>>736959286All good and this game really shines if you enjoy rather mindless grinding with some friends and guildies. Big part of this game for me has always been a more of a hanging out with the bwos while enjoying the slow n simple pace of an older cute mmo.

https://poal.me/iqwp57
>>736958950This change means nothing in the grand scheme of things. 60% only made sense in old MS because most classes would get one-tapped by bosses without it. Given the damage formulas are very different from before, along with every monster being adjusted manually in terms of stats, this isn't nearly as big a deal as some might make it out to be.Mages won't be immortal anymore, at least.
>>736960187bro they removed the MP, spearcuck will now have to chug down double or even triple the number of pots
>>736960096Depends what you're looking for, but I don't like mages so I'd go Page. Also Page has potential to receive good buffs in the future considering it wasn't really played at all before. That or it becomes the potential man who could've had it all. Page just plays out much slower and warrior gameplay atleast 1st/2nd job is also just whack and poke. Mages have teleport for mobility and moving around on top of range and using elemental weakness to train in certain maps so playstyle is quite different.>>736960187I've seen quite a few people going crazy over the numbers that are datamined from a closed test of all things. I know "nerfs" aren't liked by anyone, but the recent changes to all classes I think was just adjusting the damage numbers to be lower in general on top of slowing down the progress. While you can get a ton of information about things before hand, the numbers alone don't give the entire picture. That and only having up to 2nd job with absolutely nothing in terms of how these changes are going to play out in reality and what happens in 3rd/4th I'd say things are still on the table.
>>736960656nigga the game had no 3rd job for eons, holy fucking tourist
>go look at datamined shit>20 monsters>5000000 cash shop itemsI expected nothing less
>>736960723Okay, and?
>>736940861this has been a great lesson in how to instill fatigue in your consumer marketing demographicI literally don't even care anymore and I'm going to filter these threads
>>736960981all NX clothing and hair gear makeup accessories are backwards compatible because they are just sprites... but they aren't classic so is it an issue or not? hmmm, nexon's bottom line says no

so who's leading the /v/ guild?
>>736961650Oh god please not him.
sovl...
>>736961205>Doesn't know how not to overhype over something yet to be released>even sulking about it like a bratYou have to be 18+ to post here.
>>736961650madwolf will try.
Where does /v/ stand on Orchid?
Some insiders (aka youtubers who talked to Chinkwell at the irl events) claim he said the closed test was the final testing phase of the game, meaning the next phase from here is just going straight into launch. Do we believe them? Skipping an open beta seems weird, and honestly the balance changes they've implemented seem half assed as though they expect a considerable amount of actionable feedback from further testing periods.
will cody be there?
>>736962013Classic was supposed to be out already.Inkwell even went "we COULD release it.. ! but we won't just yet!" last time he talked about it.
>>736961650this guy
>>736962083I've been in the "it's not really even close to coming out and stinkwell said something stupid due to not being fluent in english" camp. Plus the way they've done tests has been so slow and sporadic, people even said there were bugs from maplecon still around 3 months later in the pc cafe event. Maybe Nexon is just crunching the fuck out of the 2 dozen people working on this game so it can be released in the summer.
>>736962013I'd say it's possible since it does seem like they more or less have the game ready outside of just tweaking some numbers etc. I wouldn't be suprised if around the anniversary they would announce open test or even open test directly to launch with no wipes.I'd cope and hope that the anniversary announcement would just be we're launching Classic now let's go maplers, but realistically expectations seem to be hovering around summer time.If the closed test goes alright without any major problems and if they can find the balance in terms of not having to redo all the numbers again etc. it's looking good for the near future.
>>736962175Inkwell's english isn't as bad as people think. He may be retarded in a lot of ways but his english skills aren't one of them.I can see him genuinely believing that going "we can but we won't!" would drum up hype in a tongue-and-cheek way, especially because during his time in California he was walking around acting like a rascal.
>>736962083>retards still taking those words literallyApply the smallest amount of common sense.
>>736962271Are you autistic or just blinded with hindsight
>>736962239>If the closed test goes alright without any major problems and if they can find the balance in terms of not having to redo all the numbers again etc. it's looking good for the near future.That's a good point. If the closed test is stable and balance feedback is good, why draw it out? Just release at that point.I've just defaulted to assuming the closed test won't be much different from the pc cafe build besides being online and having some small number tweaks, bugs included. I've gotten pretty cynical about how this is being handled these past 6 months. My original guess back when they announced this was summer 2026 so hopefully that ends up being true.
>>736962083Well they could release it, but it'll be worse off for it if they need to patch it up and rebalance skills. That's asking for trouble.
>>736962352NTA but I'm assuming the closed test is mostly a stress test thing. They had maybe 100 people max playing simultaneously so with ~5000 slots all presumably playing it'd be a good test for that.
>>736962013The way they're still changing skills around in drastic ways makes me think there's at least one more test, but the impatient child in me hopes this is the last one.
may 7th, 2005 - GMS Beta was releasedmay 11th, 2006 - Game officially releasedits possible there is a release after this test, but its also possible they will hold it off because its GMS anniversary on modern, followed by a big summer patch, which means either an open beta or release in october
>>736962352My guess was the anniversary day or atleast close to it as I still feel it would be a pretty iconic date to release. However due to the closed test being announced as it was, I'm a bit doubtful of that. I'd imagine it could be possible for them to release during anniversary and having Inkwell be at the end of the stream like: "And that's all we have... however thanks to the feedback and help of maplers we are happy to announce Classic will be releasing later this evening" and party rock starts playing, but ya know one can dream.I feel they could skip open testing entirely as they aren't calling these beta or anything which could also mean they are more confident that the game is in a pretty shipping out build status. My prediction has changed to summer however, but I'll let that little spark of hope linger just in case as I really want to play already.>>736962452This is something that is on my mind aswell as the changes were rather big still so they might just need more time finalizing the real ones. That or they've found the spot and don't need much more adjusting even after the closed test.
>>736958269I miss early bb so muchhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEgnSPVC-uk
They should retcon LHC and do something completely different with the castle in El Nath. Should contain powerful undead enemies and have a gothic atmosphere.
>>736962995It could just be Von Leon again but without the Black Mage's influence (as in he could be a friendly NPC issuing a new quest to clear out invaders or something while his wife remains alive)
>>736957749Expand lith harbor so that it's as big and layered as the rest of the towns. Add some mobs and quests in it, add sewers or some shit that connect to kerning city>>736962995Just make it related to Sharenian or something and add bigger scarier tougher skeletons there. It wouldn't be outlandish if they had another castle in el nath or anything
>>736963030No, it shouldn't be furry castle at all. The aesthetic and visual design was so disappointing considering how foreboding and striking it looked in the background of El Nath.Shit music too.
>>736963186He isn't a furry without the black mage just some strong dude
>>736963030they should make classic a alternate timeline where the black mage never existed
>>736963228I'm not talking about Von Leon, I'm talking about all the monsters and audiovisual design of the castle.
>>736958606Yeah just ignore the fact we literally have the the statistics in korea showcasing actual maplestory still has more players than mapleland
>>736963420Yeah I'm saying Von Leon should still be there since it's his castle but you can just change it so it's being invaded or something.
even toontown has better gameplay than maplestory
WHERE IS MY FUCKING CODE NIXON YOU FUCKING NAGGERS
>>736964506We're glad you're excited to get on Maplestoy Classic World and enjoy your time with the game... however I accidently deleted the codes so idk see you later

>>736949947
>>736952029>Dark Aura was too strongSo nerf it. Who cares? The discussion is about Battle Mage as a whole being fit for Classic from a design perspective and a lot of people agree that it does fit, you can always adjust damage numbers.
How do you respond to this?
me waiting patiently for the email to arrive(it wont)
>>736967541You'll get trade cancelled and ghosted no matter what.>>7369679246 hours untill attendees of the con+cafe get to start playing. I'll likely just watch streams about it as I went with a lukless build irl. Hope some of you get in and enjoy it.

>>736973446you had no realistic chance of getting in anyway, you didn't miss much
>>736970876Cygnus CAN'T be in Classic because her whole existence is due to the Black Mage and Lucid. If Cygnus somehow becomes a boss, it implies these two other characters are there, as does the existence of Twilight Perion itself.
>>736973446Bwo...
>>736973446It's over anon they're closed...
>>736973552I had hundreds of email addresses when I signed up for the MS2 beta. I could’ve done it here as well

>>736975894no because bosses will require more than dps and have more mechanics to play around with
>>736975894Mages have always been shit at bossing and will always remain to be
why shouldn't a reworked lucid be in classic?
>>736975894I don't think so.Top dogs? Probably not.But it's clear that one of their aims with mages is improving single target damage outside of first job.
>>736963650I prefer the idea of it being a desolate haunted castle in the middle of the frozen mountains.Kind of like that one castle in Bloodborne.
>>736975894Bossing won't even be relevant for a long time.Balrog is the only major boss on launch and I bet y'all have never even fought him

>>736978257Nexon is far more interested in normie exposure than 30+ year old autists who played 20 years ago. There is no point on making Classic without being able to draw in a younger audience like OSRS did

>>736978298I'm forgetting, roughly how long does it usually take to reach level 30 if you play like 1-3 hours a day?
why is there an early access for a 1 week long closed beta test? lol
>>736943794Better than nothing but that doesn't sound like it would solve the issue. Not being able to afk doesn't stop the huge XP gain.
>>736978346People forget how late it was put in and act like it was always a thing.No jump down was a thing for a good while and is why I laugh when people act like the game is unplayable without it, because literally years of content was designed with no jump down in mind.
>>736978451because they got rid of the actual rpg game and turned it into a glorified chatroom + minigame simulator
>>736978492hard to quantify exactly. I remember that once you get to level 20, it takes serious grind sessions to start leveling up.

>>736978492pretty sure it took a month for the first people to reach lvl 30 when the game launched, now with more knowledge probably 2 weeks if you no life
>>736978545You can especially tell because of how broken down jump is in a lot of victoria island spots since they used to layer platforms over each other to create a sense of depth in the geography. Perion and deep ant tunnel are some of the worst offenders

>>736978257The twins are like the only normie content creators for maplestory which is why they are popular. Personally I only really watch kobe and steve for my maple contenthttps://www.twitch.tv/isiinggunz/clip/HeadstrongSmallChickpeaSaltBae-ZgxJZwa2n_pp7zEY
>>736978183Wouldn't that lead to leeching? People having high levels speedrun them through the party quest?
>>736978662It felt like ages as a teen but time did pass much spower then. It'll ve interesting experiencing it again to compare experiences. I expect itll feel like 1/5 of the time
We are watching /ourguy/ play classic right?https://www.twitch.tv/isiinggunz
>>736979087Nowadays, you’d have a higher chance of going into the beta.
>>736977953Was that not the impression we've had for months?
>>736949537>>736950298Under my rule there would be no 4th job.
I realized shortly after the sign up ended that I most likely gaslit myself into believing that I had signed up when I didn't actually, when I saw I had no confirmation email for the signup
>>736979087did you attend maplecon or the in-person test? if not you're wasting your time cause the codes go out on the 16th for everyone else
>>736967541why were buzzcuts with the default eyes such assholes? iconic look.
>watching nu-maple content creators
neat
it begins...
>he didn't get in
>>736979387there was no confirmation email
KOBE'S NAME GOT TAKEN LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>736979387There was no confirmation email. They did mention they would send an email notifying you if you do get selected, but the code email is only on the 16th.Unless the codes are coming today/tomorrow they likely won't do that and just send the codes for those lucky ones who got selected.
>>736979325They can just balance Mage ults and other stuff to make it better. I like Pirates and both of their 3rd job are garbage and no one would ever want to play them if Buccaneer and Corsair didn't exist.
>>736979401im under the impression that they said that non maplecon goers would be notified via email before the 16th, and that on the 16th they will get an additional email containing the actual key
>>736961650meim trans btw not sure if that matters
>>736979484I thought it was fake but they really did send last minute invites. Based Kim Jong Un. How long is this beta lasting for? Getting to level 15 is actually not trivial, lol.
>ks'ing still in
>>736979284no we're all watching dinofrieshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wh5_vd8BHx8
so many people
>didn't get inviteIt's over. Have fun bros and I'll see you on official launch if I'll get invited...
anyone cuckfornians on /v/ who got in?stream your game if you're so great
>>736979669he just got crashed by entering the cash shop and can't log back in lmao
>>736979629
great, i didn't get any invite...
we're watching johawk btw https://www.twitch.tv/fadiggle
>2 channelsalso it keeps crashing lmao
seeing this thread is really making it hard not to go back to maplestory when classic world is released for the public
those of you who got access, did you sign up with a high playtime account? i signed up with a pretty fresh account, wonder that's why i wasn't picked
ayo...
>>736979816It's free and Nexon learned a lot from their mistakes.It won't be perfect and new mistakes have been made, but it's objectively in better hands than it was back then. ESPECIALLY with Wonky being fired.
>>736979806>windiascaniabros... we were the fakes all along?
>>736979817signed up with my OG nexon account that's been around since at least 2008 and I have over 10k hours in numaple on it too, but no invite
>>736979885Scamia was always the worst, Windia was like the 2nd maple revolution server
>the mass ks war for the tutorial jr sentinels
>check email>invite sent 20 minutes agoYoink.>>736979698They only invited 1000 people for some ungodly reason, and they prioritized streamers/youtubers so that's a huge chunk taken already.Absolute horse shit and pisses away goodwill for no reason.>>736979817No, but I did sign up almost immediately after the page was set up..I only have a few hours in nu-maple before I bounced off and my current nexon accounts only 10~ish years old.
>>736940861>hopesgame good>fearsgame bad and p2w (because of course, because it's a seanigger heaven and BR HUEHUEHEUHEU exist)
>>736979816We're going home bwo... soon...>>736979976I can't imagine how bad it is going to be on launch even if they have like 20 or 30 channels.>>736979983I'm not suprised and as much as I would've liked to test around it is what it is. I'll be gathering info and keeping up to date what's going on and will be there on launch.
>>736979983for some reason entitled retards like yourself believe nexon should prioritize stinky little autists like you over people who will bring much greater exposure.
this game is so ownageim already enthralledthe shitty fonts, shitty sound quality just make it better
Anons who were lucky to get in are you guys crashing?
>>736980125Are you talking to me?
I guess people who actually play the game are more likely to get selected, I never had a chance, I haven't touched the actual game in like 10 years
>>736980247see >>736979936
>>736980125Perhaps you could invite the streamers and youtubers without taking up slots in the pool.I'm just an entitled retard though, I don't know how such things could be possible.
>>736979976This is just the closed beta.Imagine the shitstorm to ensue when it opens officially and literally ten thousand people are competing for the mats to make the shitty relaxer.
>>736980292I said more likely, not guaranteed
>didn't get inGuess I'll kill myself
will classic have kernel anticheat?
A Russian(?) dude on the official discord said he's not allowed to trade or open shops because of his location kek
>>736980504only dutch players aren't allowed to trade, because uhhhhYeah actually there is no actual reason, the "regulations" they mention literally don't exist, pretty sure nexon is just mad that the netherlands and japan had a thing going back in the day and they hate japan so that means they hate the dutch as well
>>736977707>All these bespoke events and mechanics>That will only run during a CBT that only 5,000 will play (less when you consider the scalped access passes, and even less because some dipshits will have applied with dead emails and will never play at all) meaning there'll only be a few hundred concurrent players at any given moment
>>736978451The "death of a game" channel had a video about MS2
Cash items only last 90 days
people who don't capitalize the first letter of their names are psychopaths
>>736980642that "thing" with japan was like 200-400 years ago.
>>736980751cash shop is dead on arrival in terms of the cosmetics then, no one is going to pay money for limited time cosmetics in 2026
>>736980751sounds like i shan't be buying any cash shop items thenseeing that kind of shit just puts me off the game entirely, i've seen multiple types of games do it like this and it's just pure greed, they don't want to give permanents because they know whales will buy it up every fucking time
>>736980751>Cash items only last 90 daysit's over.
>>736980923>no one is going to pay money for limited time cosmetics in 2026laughs in fortnite
>>736980801Koreans still have a melty about any depiction of korean occupation era japan to this day so it's not far fetched they would grudge like that still.
>>736980751like the good old days, I feel no inclination to buy them this way
>>736980923>>736981012>>736981019Anon, they need a reoccurring income stream from some place.Or do you WANT gacha to make a comeback as their main profit center?
>>736981047skins aren't temporary in fortnite are they? I thought it's buy it once during the timeframe it's available and you keep it?
>>736981047I thought fortnite cosmetics are permanent but only show up in the shop for a few days after years?>>736981091other games do that fine without making their mtx temporary.Anyways feel free to add gacha again to fleece retards; just don't make it p2w.
>>736980751ain't no way...
>>736981091>y-y-you don't understand, they NEED that money so much, they'll fail if they don't get people buying costumes every few monthsoh no they lost 1 customer, what will they do?i already complained about the whales who will love shelling out, they can keep the game afloat while i smack mushrooms for no fucking reason
>people who never played maple at launch complaining about a core feature of classic maplesasuga
>NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THE GAME MUST BE FREE, THE COSMETICS MUST BE FREE AND PERMANENT, NEXON SHOULD BE PAYING FOR THE SERVERS FROM THEIR OWN POCKET OUT OF PURE GOODWILL>I DESERVE EVERYTHING FOR FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! HOW FUCKING DARE THEY ASK FOR MONEY! FUCKING UNBELIEVABLLLLLLLE
>>736981161
>>736981294who the fuck are you quoting?
>>736981091I'm would buy more things if I keep them forever. Being temporary makes me not want to spend any money at all. It's gross.
>>736981091>Anon, they need a reoccurring income stream from some place.if they have weekly rotations of perm nx and not every other week like in the main game then i won't mind, def won't be playing if this part of classic stays the same.
>>736981294I also misconstrue peoples arguments in a disingenuous, strawman type way and I also add a wojak to depict them as. Based behavior
>you can max out beginner skillswtf....we can no longer laugh at healsissies.....
>The game must be free. The cosmetics must be free and permanent. I expect goodwill from the developers.
>>736981352see >>736981145>>736981183>>736980923>>736981012Nothing sadder than entitled little retards.You want everything to be free. You think the game is a charity for worthless garbage like yourself.
Why don’t you just play Mapleroyals or legends
we are so fucking back
>>736940861its gonna be DoA, didn't even get in the Beta despite having an account 20 fucking years old I signed up for and having play tested multiple Nexon games prior to release.Fucking 2 years too late, fuck this. I'm not going to play it. Nexon had all the time to push this out and they take 3 years and don't even invite me to the beta?They're going to still sell NX that expires in 90 days and get made fun of for it by every big streamer that picks it up during paid adverts, this is unironically going to be a PR nightmare for them
>>736980751kek all my interest is gone. have fun, guys. i guess i'll wait for the next big wow pserver.
>>736981420>YOU DON'T WANT IT TO BE TIME LIMITED?/ THAT MEANS YOU WANT IT TO BE FREE!!! NO I'M NOT GOING TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY CAN JUST KEEP ADDING NEW STUFF OR FOMO TO THE CASH SHOP TO KEEP PEOPLE SPENDING MONEY LIKE PRIVATE SERVERS DO!!!! SHUT UP!!
>>736981420look at this Nexon cock slurperare you Korean? does Samsung own your family?
>>736981467my account participated in the original gms beta in 2004 and I didn't get in
everyone complaining wasn't going to buy mx anyway, you are all niggers and you know it
lmao AsianAndy playin this too
>>736980751>paying anything to begin with when Nexon has made national Korean news TWICE in the past 5 years because of MS business practices
>>736981531yes we weren't going to buy these things in the first place that is why we are upset about the time limits on the things we were planning to buybrilliant
>>736981467Are streamers talking about the 90 day cosmetics yet? I hope they raise hell about it.
>>736981470Idiots like yourself do not understand what it takes to create a successful business model for an MMO in the current year.>>736981507Same goes for you, idiot.Again, you want free charity, and don't seem to understand that running and maintaining a large server costs money. The moment anyone points this out, you cry it's "simping for the company".Morons like you never learn, ever.
>>736981531I'm more than willing to support games I like with my shitty sense of fashion.
>>736980751Didn't they always have a time limit? I haven't played in like 15 years though
>>736981467Haha look at this, another entitled dumbfuck dinosaur thinking he's important.Nexon has a far bigger interest in bringing in new players, not worthless old autistic trashheaps like yourself. You're a failure in life and you know it.
>we want classic maple>90 days cosmedic>NOOOOOOO THATS TOO CLASSIC
>>736981467It's gonna be DoA if these niggers don't give me a fucking invite NOW. I will hex this fucking shit nexon, you fucking gooks if you're reading this I want to play RIGHT NOW and not LATER
If you want perma NX you have to buy gacha boxes, that's just how it has always been
>>736981524Fuck this trash, and they had spots reserved for a bunch of retarded trash that went to a live maplestory event in 2025. Watch a bunch of those retards not even play the test>>736981531>WAHHHHHH BUY OUR USELESS DIGITAL TRASH THAT BECOMES EVEN MORE USELESS IN 90 DAYS UNLESS YOU BUY IT AGAIN Fucking kys, no literally neck yourself, you're a human trash waste of space. Waste of Oxygen. There isn't a single redeeming factor about yourself and I can tell it from this post. It doesn't matter if an ounce of that post isn't serious, that just means you should kill yourself maybe 0.1% less than I already started. Basically no difference between the complete waste of oxygen in those examples. KMS, all cosmetics are permanent. They've released permanent NX cosmetics before, they DONT GIVE A FUCK, and DONT EVEN RESPECT their own fucking rules. Fuck this jewish companyInfact that's complimenting them. That undersells the amount of retarded greed Nexon had, if there is a picture in the dictionary under greed, it should be a corporate image of the company Nexon, Netanyahu wishes he was even 1/100th the level of embodiment of greed that Nexon is. EA? Ubisoft? Epic Games? Fucking childsplay to Nexon. Fuck those retarded fucking .
>>736981625Everyone already knows, and absolutely nobody is complaining about it, because it was like that in the old days. Keep crying you pathetic autistic little retard.
>>736981687Yes
>>736981643>stupid goys- I mean, guys like you don't understand that they NEED that extra income to survive! mmo servers cost millions of dollars per month! you should be happy that you get 60 day cosmetics! 30 days is plenty for these items. anyway, you'll take your 15 day time limited cosmetics and like it.
>>736981687yes, it's retarded tourist shitposters who never played the game in the first place
>feedback link for Cash Shop just opens up their discord grim
>>736981736>autistic retard has a chimpoutwe don't care, sorry champ.Classic will do fine. I'm looking forward to playing it :)
>AUTISTS!! ALL OF YOU ARE AUTISTIC EXCEPT ME!! EVERY LAST ONE!!! YOU'RE ALL DERANGED AND STUPID THIS IS HOW IT WAS BACK IN THE DAY YOU FUCKING CASUALS!! AUTISTS!!!!
>>736981754>It WuZ LiKe ThAT iN Da OLDiEzand nobody fucking liked it then, KYSread the abbreviation for the Korean servers and take its advice. For the sake of everybody else, good fucking lord.
theres people still selling early access beta keys in ebay
>autist-spamming newfag embarrasses himself so hard that even a feels-guy edit saving newfag jumps in to laugh at himThis fucking thread.
>Classic will do fine. I'm looking forward to playing it :)
>>736981809>Trash, zero skill gameplay DoA, Zoomies will never play, WoW Classic and OSRS only took off because it has actual skill expression that streamers gladly took part of.There is no skill in maplestory.
bump limit hit>>736981920
>>736981806For real? Man, fuck this game.
you know he is seething when it starts spamming wojacks, even taking 10 minutes to make a post thanks to the captcha
why the FUARK IS MY ONLINE IMAGEBOARD SO SLOW TODAY?!
>>736981334What is LP? Everyone is just whining and no one is talking about this. Is it something you can obtain in-game? If that's the case, then it's not too bad. It'll still be way better than the old system of NEEDING to pay real money.
>didnt make it ingo on without me bros
>>736982150LP = leafpoints.They're a temporary NX equivalent you earn in the CBT through milestones or random drops from mobs and will be deleted when it ends.
>>736982150another korean mmorpg(BDO) had LP which was loyalty points, basically semi premium currency you get for just logging in the game every day. maybe it's the same thing?
>>736982281If they keep that system for the full release, then what's the problem?
>>736982373Because it's not going to be there for the full release.It's just a stand in because it's a temporary beta and they need information on any issues with the store.
I keep crashing randomly every 10 to 20 minutes so I guess I'm done for now until they fix their shit.
>>736979387>signed up sometime in March>checked back maybe five days ago>I still had the option to sign up so signed up again>only that one NX account>worried that somehow the much earlier sign up did not go through and not having that earlier sign up has somehow negatively impacted my chances to get in (as if it wasn't .000001% to begin with anyway)It's not easy being autistic.
>>736982474Then people should start demanding they make it permanent. They can still make plenty of money from whales who want to skip the grind for LP. The old model is just so laughably outdated in 2026, there are hundreds of games that prove you don't need to do something like that to make profit.
>>736956636>hp washing has been removedI will never understand why so many private servers still havent just removed this shit. Its peak autism in a game about stats where you can very easily brick your character.
