The MapleStory Classic World test has concluded. Did you get in? What class(es) did you roll? Thoughts on the overall state of the game? Hopes and fears for the future? Why did Nexon give us this gift only to take it away so soon?
>>737521561>find an infinite money glitch>get whatever I want>want to share it>but don't want to ruin itwhat do
>>737521673A boy will tell his friends about an exploitA man will keep an exploit secret to enrich himselfBut a wise man will report an exploit
>>737521561Ty for the memories even though they weren't so great
defaming everyone wearing the rings on launch
>>737522069You get 1 defame per day. Good luck.
>>737521561>What class(es) did you roll?I tried dit and archer out. Neither felt bad at all. I'm convinced the only people acting like they suck are autistic min/maxers.>Hopes and fears for the future?I hope they DON'T remove bow whacking. I hope they DON'T "fix" accuracy.
I'm not inviting anyone with the Closed Test ring to my party
>>737521561/msg/whales are extremely angry and upset about classic bring a success.Please have some sympathy for them.
Imagine telling someone the top and the bottom are the same game
>>737522365being*
>>737521561Would've been better without those ugly fomo chat rings.
>>737522452Ren-t free
>>737522452maplestory looks like THAT??
nemi a cute
>>737521561I/L and Archer (couldn't get 2nd job on that one). I feel like as a technical test it was a pretty big success. Obviously there were some bugs and the odd crash, but the server handling hundreds of players all at Lith Harbor at the end there was pretty impressive.I'll repeat what I've said before, the game works and the most it needs is tweaks to accuracy because, balance aside, it's just not fun to miss half your attacks without investing enough in dex. I know it won't happen but if I had my way I'd announce an open beta on May 11th then launch it a month later allowing people to pre-register for the bandana. I've got a bad feeling we're stuck waiting a while though.
>>737521561And now the game has been pushed back a year because you let retail players speak up for you.
its over
>>737522670then invest in dex, you fool
>>737522150The difference in opinions of people who actually played/like archers and those that don't are night and day. I think they're fine other than obviously buggy shit that will be fixed.
>>737521561so no more generals in /v/ for an entire year now?
>>737523164Mid 2027 at the earliest, thats being generous. This is nexon we are talking about, and people on this very board are defending it and even encouraging the game to keep getting pushed back claiming it is unfinished.
dubs and it releases this very summer
Inkwell said release soon in the final 10 minutes
throwing hands
How much of an impact does GTA 6 have on release? Obviously they can't coincide Classics release with GTA so they have to release either much earlier or much later in 2027.
>>737523537proof?
>>737521561This test pretty much confirmed online gaming is dead for me. Everyone was a silent autist grinding in a party even the casuals who barely made it to 2nd job near the end. All the suggestions for the game are dumb as fuck and all the loudest retards are making them. Streamers/influencers are going to be parroting the viewpoints made in discords by nu-maplers instead of offering their own view. Inkwell and Nemi don't know shit about the balance and will listen to the streamers parroting discord viewpoints. Somehow they made a version worse than any private server or msw that's completely unfun, boring, and will get stale in a week. Saying it's not ready for another year killed all the hype and put a nail in its coffin.
>>737524302cry more autist
>>737524302Agreed. Classic will be complete shit.
>/msg/whales crying again
/msg/ here we hate the classics
What the hell even is this game looks like a shitty flash game
so we going to legends or royals?
>>737526057Why the fuck aren't we playing Artale?
>>737526057
Wanted to login to royals but couldn't and they still don't have a good forgot password/email mechanism.
>>737524873>>737524302Seething msg'ers will never stop being funny. Classicchads won. We're going home.>Mfw classic is going to have 5x player count of maple
It's over? I didn't get to level 15lmao
>>737522452Madara vs Itachi
so is there any chance of this being good or is this just going to be nostalgia slop
>>737526446It's basically the same game you dumb fuck what do you expect
Best moments in the playtest?https://youtube.com/shorts/B7Osbm5VNvk
>>737526579So much for le wholesome and friendly community SHEESH
>>737524302>guy who sits in the corner and broods that nobody talks to himStrange, I had no trouble finding people to talk with. Maybe you striking out is why you think everyone is autistic / retarded.
>>737526782Not everyone else's fault you gave people the ick.
>>737526404rip anon
>>737526404How did you manage that? It only takes a couple hours.
Thoughts on some people desperately pleading Inkwell to never add pirates?
>summer items in the filesYeah, they're releasing in summer. Summer 2027.
>>737527402Source?
>>737521561Shit I remember signing up for this. I guess I never got in. Did the test already conclude?
>>737527669Test finished. Now waiting until 2027.
>>737526883But enough about your high school life.
>>737527669Test finished. Now waiting until May 11th 2026.
Should Maplestory be more lewd?
>>737527994They aren't going to release it this year because of GTA 6.
>>737528131GTA6 isn't releasing this year tho
anyone think Inkwell seemed kind of unhinged at the end? like wtf is up with the komm summer todd did he suddenly turn into a nazi?
>>737528212Yes it is. Release date later in the year and there is no way they are delaying it more after 13 years.Either way Nexon need to provision for it's current release data. If they release Classic before or during GTA, all the hype will drain.
>>737528131GTA doesn't have as much cross competition as you think. I know a lot of people that don't give a shit about GTA and when 5 came out they played other games that came out around the same time. There is a massive amount of people that don't play those games. The only games that need to change their release dates around when GTA6 comes out are big AAA games. Maplestory isn't even remotely the same audience that plays that overrated slop
>>737528216once summer comes he will do a collab with bethesda
So what bossing content will there be on release?
>>737528650hah, good one anon
i didn't get in, how jewish does it seem? same as the original or did they dial it back at all?
I have been messing around trying to create a Maplestory-like multiplayer sidescroller in UE5 using the GAS framework.Always wondered why other MMO developers don't try their hand in the 2D mmo space. I always liked the idea better than the old WoW style top down games because you're right up close to the characters and their expressions.LaTale failed for obvious reasons.
>>737528749Prepare to pay the nexon tax if you want to merchantmaxx
>>737528749No pay2win in the playtest
>>737528216>Komm, sĂ¼sser Tod" (Come, Sweet Death) was originally released on September 26, 1997you heard it from inkwell folks. release is sept 26th
>>737527974>Strange, I had no trouble finding people to talk with.Thanks?
Why are the build guides on meowdb so ass?Are there no good class guides for classic out there?
>>737522150>>737522937Objectively wrong opinions
>>737528776what reasons are those
Any private server chads here?
>>737529768They didn't implement client prediction. This means input will always have a delay equivalent to your ping.
>>737529794>private server>chadsLOL
>>737529794What is the left lizard actually from? I don't remember it from old maple but they were always in summoning bags on pservers.
>>737529901ThaiMSNexon outsourced to different teams for those region exclusive worlds. That's why the NPCs, monsters and music are all so weird and uncanny looking.
>>737529794what private server is worth playingI am never supporting nexon shit like nuslurpers
I didn't get a code but my friend let me make a character on his account. I had no problems meeting and talking to people. Just start talking into the void and somebody will respond and it goes from there. Stop taking everything so personally and seriously. Be light hearted.
>>737522150I didn't get in but the only ones I genuinely believe would be a struggle to play in the game's current state would be Warriors.Archers and 'dits hit mushroom miss hit and pots until you need to.
>>737530434It's just one person saying no one talks. They're on seethe duty in the thread.
>>737522452Nobody ever considered it the same game.Though the one on top is disingenuous anyway since it doesn't look like that normally.
>>737530527probably one of the retards who spent 30k hours in nuple lmao
>>737530416There aren't any.
>>737530527Does /msg/ really run seethe duty for Classic?
>>737521561>Jr. Balrogs... in the pot shops.
Beta looked really fun to play in, dang. Hope release comes out soon and get to play with the bwos.
The playtest completely ruined any nostalgia-hope anyone had.
>>737531508You will drop it for GTA 6
>>737530416None of them. Either they're ephemeral, utterly dogshit to play requiring even more time than nuMaple, have no one playing them, or get shutdown by Nexon. Just host your own if you wanna re-live old Maple.
Ellin Forest PQ and area in classic.Yay or nay?
>>737531630I don't really care about GTA 6, so no.>>737531920Maybe later on since PQs are really fun.
>>737530640They have a site admin in their discord. They knew I was from /v/ before I even made a post.
I'm genuinely depressed now that the beta is over. This was such a fucking special thing and I'm so glad I was able to turn off my normally pessimistic, 4chan rotted brain and just rewind back to 2006 and enjoy this experience. I feel bad for people that didn't get a key and didn't have the opportunity to do the same. Regardless of whatever direction the game goes from here, I can say that Inkwell's team was 100% able to recapture that old-school feel during this beta and it was entirely based on how the players were encouraged to interact with each other through changes made to the game's balance. Whether at launch or during another beta test I encourage others from here to leave /v/ and 4chan here and instead approach the game like you did when you first played it.
>>737522452its crazy how much butthurt this caused yesterday, they didnt even understand it either complaining about muh lines and shit.its simple, top is soulless, bottom is soul
>>737530416im playing on legends and its been good
>>737531508wtf is going on with her right leg
>>737534032Was really fun following what is happening in the beta. Would have been more fun actually getting to play it, but it is what it is. I'm still excited for launch and hopefully meet some nice people there.>>737534231I wouldn't worry about it anon.
>>737534032why don't you just play royals instead?
>>737534417what the fuck
>>737534417I tried royals and legends. They're enjoyable at first but don't actually capture the true old school feel. Metagaming is the point of these private servers. While there's some chill people that play on them and run guilds that are really welcoming and offer a sense of community, you're still heavily expected to engage with the game in a way that just is not fun or natural and choosing not to do so will limit your ability to party for boss runs later into the game.
>>737524302Basically exactly what happened to classic wow.Except you left out that the game will be completely infested and controlled by bots and people buying insane amounts of meso from bots.I learnt this lesson from classic wow, if you want the easiest way to succeed in maple classic without spending thousands of hours and ruining your life, don't actually play, go to your job instead, come home, go on g2g.com and spend a few hundred bucks to buy millions of mesos, buy leech from 3rd worlders who also sell meso, buy all the best gear, sit in hene and flex on noobs with your super high level and insane perfect gear that you bought with botted mesos.
>>737534417LOL
My thoughts on the closed beta test now that it's over>Party grinding is great and it SHOULD be the best option for getting XP>Quests need to have their rewards increased dramatically, both for XP and for beneficial items like pots or crafting materials>Same with KPQ -- it needs the rewards buffed to warrant the potion usage>Crafting is fun and a good addition >Accuracy NEEDS to be reworked or the game is DoA >The Forgotten Hollow is a good addition and fits Classic Maplestory well>Warriors are underpowered but might be fixed with the accuracy rework>Archers are fine and their issues might be fixed with the accuracy rework>Thieves are fine if not still strong despite the accuracy issues>Mages are even more overpowered and ignore the accuracy issues>The game absolutely needs another beta test which is implied by the mark of beta arriving again>Shops in town are awful but I can see the appeal even if I believe it looks like clutter I didn't play the beta but these are my thoughts
>>737534552Deadass this is something that takes minutes.t. Multiplayer RPG gamedevMMO server backend is 90% of the work and that looks done.
nugayple is full of fags
>>737534607to be fair, its a much better experience if you're playing with a /v/ guild. I remember we had a good one going a decade ago, and everyone was having a good time larping and misbehaving.Would never play Roylels or Legends alone.
>>737535029
>>737535068its going to be all nuplers now
>>737534032Agreed the whole experience was so sincere and comfy and there's zero chance the final release will recapture the feeling. It really was just full of bunch of tired old fuckers with jobs and spouses and kids and loans just acting like dumb kids again (and autistic sweatlords who never talked to anyone but we had those back then too). The final release definitely won't have to same vibe even though I'm sure it'll be fun in its own right, I'm really glad I lucked into a test slot.
>>737534924>The game absolutely needs another beta test which is implied by the mark of beta arriving againNo it doesn't.The only reason to have another beta would be to let fomospergs have their fomodana
>>737534924>i didn't play but here are my thoughts>[every basic bitch take that more than 5 people said on discord]Shocker
>>737535338Nice larp, It was nothing like that. It's all numaplefags, streamerfag cancer, foids/influencers.
Should Singapore and NLC be in Classic?Keep in mind all elixirs now have 30s cooldown
>>737535495>didn't get in so the only way they can experience it is through streamers >wtf why is it all streamers
>>737534417Been there, done that, never going back.
>>737535584>SingaporeFuck no.>NLCFuck no. Crimsonwood Keep can stay though.
>>737535584I can't think of anything I miss from NLC other than Crimsonwood and the big ass blue chair.
>>737535584If adjusted and tweaked, maybe? I'm not really in a rush to see a ton of content being dropped non-stop and everything included. I'm quite open to a lot of ideas and love to see the discussion behind it. Mage FMAs still need atleast a cooldown on them regardless if percentage potions have a cooldown. You can not balance those based on potion cost as the moment someone has enough money that balance is out the window.
>>737535495Add streamers sub only guilds and like 5 different discord groups all competing for world firsts and it's going to be soulless as fuck.
Reminder that nuclassic fags will never experience real soul.
>>737535880Why did you kick everyone from kusoge, madwolf?
>>737535880Bros...it's so beautiful...I want to go back. Fuck Classic.
>>737535708How easy is it to convert in-game Maplestory characters to artwork using AI?
>>737535385They are all objectively correct opinions.
Nupler discord faggots playing NuClassic will never experience something like this
>>737536043it's simple enough, most of the work is figuring out what booru tags to use.BTW MapleSEA is now using AI for official lewds of Orchid, Seren and Kaling
>>737535495Sorry you didn't make it in bro but don't make it everyone else's problem.
>>737536196Your mother will die in her sleep you faggot nupler
Looks like /msg/whale found this thread.
>>737535880Can you tell me which guild you are joining on release?
bossuSolidShakeScebJewpiterKULTtomko
>>737536253This is who's going to be in your /v/ guild in 2026 Madwolf, just /msg/fags.
>>737536636Lmao what the fuck is wrong with these people?
Every time I think about maybe trying classic MS out, I remember that everything I want is cash shop only, so I'll just stick to private servers for my MS fix
>>737536730eternal zoomerism
>>737528289>and there is no way they are delaying it more after 13 yearsAnon listen to yourself
>>737536790>everything I want is cash shop onlyWhat do you mean by that? All cosmetics you want?
>>737537501Pets and cosmetics, yeah. I never played with a pet back in the day. Actually, when I played JMS because it had 3rd jobs and GMS didn't, I bought a pet for a while, but I'm just totally over needing to spend money for a pet or to look like you're not a default character.
the numaple audience
>>737535029nu-Henesys is so fucking soulless
>>737536790>play pserver>all the GOOD cosmetics are locked behind "donor" pointsNah bro.
>>737538054I have never played a pserver where I felt disadvantaged by not spending money.
>>737530558the fact that it can look like that is already a problem
>>737537731I get that. I think I'm just at a point where I rarely spend money on games anymore, so the occasional 10 bucks or so for cosmetics (which hair and eyes were always permanent compared to other NX cosmetics) is something I'm okay with. Also I never used pets before until the closed beta and now I understand why people pay for them. They absolutely save your fingers and wrist from excessive strain over long grinding sessions. I hadn't realized how spamming z to pickup shit was wrecking my hand.
>>737526584https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeBDEzazV4Q
>>737538149>They absolutely save your fingers and wrist from excessive strain over long grinding sessions. I hadn't realized how spamming z to pickup shit was wrecking my hand.Skill issue. Reconfigure your keys if they're uncomfortable.
>>737538149>They absolutely save your fingers and wrist from excessive strain over long grinding sessions. I hadn't realized how spamming z to pickup shit was wrecking my hand.For me, it's just the annoyance of needing to pick things up, when you know that for $5 or whatever you could be doing it automatically. Plus, waaay back in the day, I'm talking like beta GMS or GMS just released, the servers were pretty laggy so stopping to pick up drops or mesos took forever and could sometimes get you killed. Pets are one thing that once you experience them you can't go back unless maybe you reach a point where you don't need to pick up mesos or drops outside of big money rare drops.
Do you remeber the real old Maplestory before it was ruined by nuclassicslop?
>>737538149Pets are super nice for quality of life. If there is no europe server on release it is almost mandatory more or less for eu players due to loot lag if you play outside of NA. Stores and AP/SP resets are also something that can sway to spend more. Cosmetics and looks are the real money sink if you enjoy that aspect of maplestory.
>>737530416I like Horizons, but all pservers are kind of niche and low popHowever, nexon will fuck up classic so I don't think they're going anywhere
>>737530558yes daddy nexonmaplestory was always a solo game and pqs were never popular
>>737538370I played old, OdinMS, DestinyMS and ExtaliaMS.Great times.
>want to play a maple pserver>remember that every single one now forces you to spend nx to unlock inventory slots when 10 years ago they just had them all unlocked for freewhat the fuck happened
I want there to be content to carry me to lv200. I don't want to grind. grinding was the worst part of old maplestory.
im just a little /msg/ discord faggot
>>737538918Get to voting, piggy. :^)
>>737539071
Do you remember El Nath?
>going to need to pay $10/week to nexon to be able to sell anything this shit is going to suck bros
>>737539232Of course. Best music. Comfiest townhttps://youtu.be/X6X7U5V9ObkI used to afk there a lot and just leave the soundtrack playing>>737539317Most likely. Hence pservers not going anywhere.
Play Wind Archer.
>>737521673this >>737521851eventually the glitch will be found by a retard willing to ruin the game to get what he wants. just report it now before shit hits the fan
>>737521561>Did you get in?No...
i got tricked into buying a beta key but now no one gives a shit
i got mine by applying
i applied for the ebay sellers request too
>>737521561Disappointing. Just another Nexon cash grab.
would be the first one that is good value
>>737538224If they'd let us actually remap the movement keys to something like WASD I would but I'm so used to the default layout that my fingers just naturally rest on Ctrl, Shift, Z, and Alt.>>737539071Grinding is quintessential to old school maple, but I agree that quests should give more exp.
>>737541179Disappointing how? Did you even play in the beta?
>>737521561xSimon you're the og. I don't know how it's still rare knowledge how to get the tallest message, I discovered it in 2007.
>>737521561Inkwell confirmed Eva fanit really was like fucking human instrumentality when every square inch of lith harbor was covered by dead characters
Each time a character job advances they should get 10 SP tbqh.
So what's the best MS private server now? I quit before Zakum got added so I've never done any boss, if that makes a difference.
Should Maplestory Classic have dating sim sidequests?
it already does its just not tracked as a quest
>>737541302Even back in 2007 when I started, I moved Jump to Z, Attack to X, and Pickup to C. Ctrl is just too far away from everything else to be ergonomic.
>>737539676I want her to blow on me with her wind from her butt
>>737521561none of those noobs know how to properly stack @'s for maximum height wtf
>>737522452Kek
>>737535029I genuinely hate the new art style
Thoughts on the new MSEA official AI art?
>>737543312uncensored?
>>737544915Nobody cares faggot
>>737544945Nah you're an idiot.
>>737545053Compared to you malding the whole week shitposting because you didn't get into the beta and now your waifus are getting cucked by SEAs?
>>737545671Take your meds idiot. You do not know who I am or what I've posted.
how did you guys get alerted to closed beta signups?
oldschool runescape increased its membership price which made me unwilling to play it so i thought, hmm i liked maplestory back in the day, is there an old school versionand by coincidence that was right when signups had opened(i got in)
>>737546292I've been following this since maplecon.>>737546372Talk about a lucky timing, nice.
>>737546372but did you like it?
>>737546675yeah, it still feels a little hard to believe>>737546727i did, i feel like the beta was too short to see its true staying power, but I had a lot of fun and there's a ton of potentialthe community aspect is also better, pretty much all the issues with PQs are fixed, they were my main way of meeting new people, and outside of that even if you're just partied up and individually whacking mobs, it's still miles better than being other players being a hindrance and telling you to cci tried some private servers and artale in the period between the signups and the beta, which quickly dispelled any nostalgia i was going in with
Is it time to make a /v/guild discord in anticipation for the classic /v/ guild?
>tfw the classic playtest endedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJstyRBLqBQ
>>737549327I’m not joining a guild with you schizos
>>737549859Yes you are.
>>737549327We have no idea about the release date and discord is frowned upon on this site. I'd rather wait for release and see what sort of people I meet before joining anything.
im bored out of my mind what am i supposed to do
>>737551110There's like 10 different versions of maplestory you could be playing right now
>>737551219and every single one of them is shit
>>737551219i dont wanna burn out on some temp server
>>737551110legends
where do i get a maple classic bot and whats the best site to buy illegal mesos
>>737552070Hey Dave Deviluke
>>737549327it is honestly better to join a bigger guild than join up with a bunch of casual normalfags who form cliques and schizos
>>737554176Good, go and join your normgroid guild. We don't want you.
>>737554370>he says as he joins a /v/ guild that ERPs more than plays the game
ive joined too many v and vg guilds in the past to know that 99.9% of them are shitters and dramawhores
>>737554458I have been in at least 5 /v/ guilds and never saw any ERPing. In fact they all mocked the idea of ERPing.Once again, stick to your normgroid guilds, we don't want trash like you.
so was the crafting addition actually useful?
>>737555970It seemed good on the surface, better than needing to drop all your gearI rather farm crafting materials for 10 hours than spend 10 hours trying to drop a piece of gear I need
>>737556164... and then when the gear finally drops, it's below average
>>737554370Imagine not being on the OSMS hype train that you don't have a few people that you're going to talk to and possibly guild up with because you've played other OSMS like servers and worlds. You're so reclusive or adversarial that you need a 4chan guild.
>>737538370I quit the game before/after? the 3rd jobs even dropped. My cleric spent most of the time healing the zombies a bit past El Nath.
>>737556683There have always been 4chan guilds, and we always laugh at morons like yourself who hang out with the normgroids and adhere to community rules.
>>737556937>unironic faggot who hangs out with fellow 4chan faggots outside of 4chan laughing at otherslol
>>737557115Yes, we do indeed laugh at morons like you.
>>737557284I know. I’ve seen the retarded shit you people say in the discords.
Can crafting be used to make money? As in, is there anything you can craft that's worth more than the materials used?
>>737557585>I know. I’ve seen the retarded shit you people say in the discords.
>>737557585>>737556683fuck off normie
>>737526057Neither. It's ChronoStory from now on.
>actual normalfag on /v/ right now trying to shill normalfag guilds
these kinds of faggots >>737557724 are the ones using """"4chan guilds""""lmao, massive YIKES
>>737557707Typically in mmos items you can craft will never be worth more than what the materials can be sold for to npcs. However, it might be valuable to other players if the item is annoying to get.
>>737557842and yet they're still better company than normalfag dumbfucks like yourself.
>>737557842>i-im not a faggot like you even though I post on /v/!! I'm cool enough to hang out with the trannies!!
>>737557707not yet, maplestory has stimulators which could be used to roll the stats on your gear to be higher or lower, if this gets added to crafting in the public release then you could make items that are more valuable.
So is Holy Arrow actually good now?I always thought it looked cool but it was pretty useless back in the day
>>737558498It was the most overpowered attacking skill in the beta. Likely to get nerfed before release but will still probably be good.
>>737528028no
>>737543312
>>737549859stop being tsundere anon-kun, you baka
>>737521561>bots take 60k codes>punish people are exploiting their way in without a codeFailed launch
>>737559018>launchidiot
>>737558498isn't holy damage really good in general? There's lots of good undead training spots
>>737559509Which is exactly why they don't need the best single-target DPS on non-holy enemies.
>>737527402pretty sure they were the first event items on release
>Potentialplease don't
>>737559832TIK TOKpotentials were not only created by inkwell but by all technicality pre-bb
>That one anon that tried to tell me that the experience won't compare to private servers because nexon has more resources>it's actually worse
>>737560515>because nexon has more resourcesthey also have more to lose from taking risks, and more to gain from exploiting the playerbase. of course it will be worse.
so the test just ended and they didn't even say anything or give any news?
>>737564883Did you really expect anything else from Nexon NA and Inkwell?
>>737565327i didn't expect much, but at least something like "thank you for participating in the closed test, you will hear more from us soon" or something
>>737566402This is how it's been the past 2 years since Go West on GMS. This winter everyone expected an inkwell note for Christmas and it didn't come. So everyone was like surely for New Years? Nope. Last hopium was for Lunar New year since it's an Asian game and all. Still nope. He literally took a 3 month island vacation and was missing from november until march. These people don't actually give a shit, it's just a job for them.
>>737567263welp, at least there's a good chance they will share some news on may 11th
HELLO EVERYWAN. DI YOU ENJOY MAPEL STORY CLASSI WAHL?
so are they reverting back to original hp + exp values for monsters, original damage values for equips + skills, original chance to hit etc?
>>737567637no they are going to spend another year rebalancing everything just to still end up with mages and sins being the best
mapleland... won...
did original maplestory have skill respecs?
>>737569207>cyggies and dbno
>>737569247In the cash shop yeah.
now that the test is over, i feel its safe for me to say that i scammed an ebay seller for a key and i feel bad about it because it wasn't one of the mass email farmers, it was just a maplecon attendee
>>737569336those are prebb yeah?
>>737569601You'd have been able to tell based on the email they forwarded, one very clearly says "for attending our events".Also, don't feel too bad, I know a few guys who bought and re-sold the same keys, could have been one of them.Also also, why are you feeling bad? You won over them. Feel good instead.
>>737569679cyggers are soulless and just worse versions of explorersdb is cool thoughbeit
>>737570672why do so people deliberately misrepresent the cygs. They literally had EXP modifiers and capped at level 120, they were meant to be what you made first to experience a slice of the game, and then remake into an ultimate adventurer.
>don't want Du*l Bl*de in my classic>DB's Phantom Blow and Blade Fury (both post-bb) are one of my favorite skillsRRRRRGGHHH
>>737570834nobody is misrepresenting them. that just fucking sucks. that's a stupid idea. kill yourself.
>>737570938neck yourself, nigger. It was a great idea because it turned a fucking multi hundred hour grind to level 120 into a 50 hour grind instead then gave you a good skill to make mobbing easier, even on a shit-ass class when you converted to an adventurer. They were one of the very few good decisions in adding a new class.
>>737570938>being forced to farm on bishop so I can fund my dogshit actual main is SOUL and KINO, but ultimate adventurers? eww miss me with that shit
>>737571026>UHHH THEY SHOULD PUSSYFOOT AROUND FIXING SHIT JOBS AND JUST MAKE YOU PLAY A DOGSHIT BORING VERSION OF IT FIRST INSTEAD FOR MARGINAL IMPROVEMENTthe solution is just to give those classes non-dogshit mobbing skills. i'm so glad you have no say at all in anything game development related because you're profoundly retarded.>>737571182nobody said this and this sucks just as bad. don't samefag it's embarrassing.
>>737571216>fixing shit jobswell when they did that you dumb gorilla brained africanized retards screamed about "MUH BIG BAAAAAAAAAANG WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"like you still do to this fucking day, in this very thread, in your very fucking posts.
>>737571291>UH BIGBANG FIXED IT?caught you nigger! thank you for proving my point.
>>737571338Yes, it did fix the problem YOU are complaining about.The actual problem was solved by cygnus knights.Enjoy seething as you read my reply.
>>737555970It's a really really good idea but the economics of it seemed questionable. It takes a LOT of materials and money to level up to the point where you can make worthwhile gear and it seemed like it was better to just grind cash and buy shit outright from other players. Maybe after the game releases and the economy of materials settles it might end up being fine.

>tfw you realize you're not playing Classic anymore
forget about classic, when are we getting mobi global?if they make it less p2w like gms it will be perfect
>>737576504Still slated for this year since they mentioned it in their investor report a couple weeks back
>>737573645Actual kino.
so what now?
>>737579272If you're korean you can go play mapleland 2.0 next weekotherwise lol lmao
I got no hope left for nuclassic
Now that its finally over, we can finally say it never truly began.
is this game really releasing with no bosses and just kpq?
>>737581564mushmom and jr balrog are bosses!
>>737581564no, it's not releasingthere's no date and there's at least one more confirmed test
>>737581564they honestly expect you to grind all day
maplestory ip earns $700m+ in a yearand gms can't even get 0.1% of that revenue invested intohow come
>>737539071>maplestory is the worst part of maplestory
>>7375815641-10 on release and then the next five levels every 3 months.
>>737581564In my hundreds if not thousands of hours in pre-BB MapleStory I have never killed a boss outside of a PQ or the dojoBosses are just not the focus of the game
chances the official Classic release will require a phone verification or ban vpns to deter off thirdies and bots?cause if not, it will be unplayable
>>737582423Grinding for the sake of grinding is shit once people realize that's all there is to the game
>>737582270Unironically Chatting with other retards 20 years ago when the internet wasnt as corporate was kinda funGrinding was just a sidequest to just show off some skills
Reminder that pirates are not "classic". They can add them three years after release if they want just like they did in the original game, by that point Nexon will have found a way to ruin the game and not make it worth playing for other reasons anyway
>>737582709wow another massive copepost #10492
>>737582550>deter off thirdiesJust a few days ago they made an announcement about the new brazilian law for brazilian players and how they're trying to find a work aroundIf they didn't care about third world players at all they would just ip block Brazil again, instead they chose to make a special exception just so the game could be available in Brazil
Reminder that a third worlder was the 4th player to ever get to level 200 in GMSThirdies are part of your history
>>737582765Are you some kind of god to have three years last a minute in your temporal perception
>>737582965They don't give medals out for 4th place
>>737583097The top 5 were in the first page of the website for a long time
>closed beta test generates enough interest in numaple >fags hoping they'd get in on the next beta pick it up>nexon swims in cash>cancels classic maple
>>737583252that's what I thought but nexon being nexon that turned put to be falsethey didn't even give out hyperburn this time that kms had
>>737583139Anyone below 3 is there as a humiliation ritual.
Unfortunately, it won't feel like classic maple with nx. EVERYONE who buys cosmetics looks fucking retarded without exception. At most an nx hairstyle might be ok but nothing beyond that. Lvl 20 dit ""coolguy"" with fuckboy puckered anus faces walking around kills it.
>>737576492>cherry picked, microscopic copped portion of a screenshot>"classics dead bros, better pack it up, you feel demoralized right?"Getting real fucking tired of this low effort doomer shit. Post the full fucking screenshot. I'm willing to bet it was someone's pet leveling up instead of a player. Everyone in the beta was congratulating people on level ups and everyone I saw was thankful. The sense of community was excellent during the test aside from a handful of kikes trying to bait retards into replying and dumb nigger edgelords spamming "le edgy gamer word" and links to fucking fishtank in smegas.
>>737569679just because something is prebb doesnt mean its classic, or rather has what would be considered classic principles
>>737583252I would bet my entire net worth that there isn't even double digit conversion rate from closed test participant to "I'll try out numaple while I wait".
>>737583470Cash shop came the same year the game came out, it only seemed like it wasn't a thing because anybody with money was playing a real mmo and not maple
>>737583470There were tons of people walking around with NX items back in the day, the fuck are you talking about?
I hate numaple cucktourist nostalgiafaggots that think they even play or know maplestory
>>737583470man so true, I always thought the modern shit with the cash shop looked retarded and didnt fit with the world for the most part
>>737583252Nah inkwell note just dropped and it pretty much just says don't play until the summer update lol lmao
>>737583470It only last 90 days bro calm down
>>737584753""""tons of people""" is a huge fucking stretch but ok
>>737521561brooo I can't wait to get fucked by nexon again! it's going to be so epic!!!
>>737588943>paying real world money to RENT PIXELSyou CANNOT make this shit up lmao fucking wow
>>737583470>>737589046Nah he's right, do you even know shit about henehoes? Plenty of people were strapped with NX back then, I vividly remember.
>>737530416legends. got to 170 there so i guess i liked it
>>737589962what makes it better than royals
>>737588923wow it's nothing
>>737590286Admin is girl (female)
>>737593983proof?
>>737594016Why would someone on the internet lie about their gender?
>>737583470I hope they add modern maplestory nx to classic, osms looks like shit honestly, new maple hairs and outfits look amazing
>>737570834>and capped at level 120So they get to be overpowered for the exact part of the game that matters.120+ is boring as fuck and the best time to quit.
>>737595159The game being badly designed isn't the fault of cygnus knights
>cant even change quickslot buttons on legendsYeah fuck this im sticking to royals
>>737590286smaller exp rate (2x) so its more like classic, (3.2x) is too much
They're delaying launch because they know Classic will have <1000 players after a year.
>>737597324The more they delay it, the more they'll hurt their launch numbers as well as people lose the hype.
>wake up>no classicSuffering continues.>>737594809Cute.
i'm not falling for the royals meme again nigga, every time it's just been the same schizophrenic as the guild leader and everyone else is too much of a wuss to make a guild of their own
>>737597868Don't do it anon, don't burn out on a shitty private server while waiting for Classic.
anyone got the pserver screenshots where they post everyones private browser history in the mod thread
>>737597868I think a lot of people just don't want the responsibility being a guild leader or don't think they are suited for it. Have to see what happens in classic and how they go about bringing guilds to the game. Especially if they don't bring them on release or limited slots.
>>737597868You talking about MadWolf? Aka Royalsfag/BlackGoku.In 2015 the guild leader was a guy called MrJingles. Pretty sure he wasn't a schizo.
Watch my actual good idea for Classic get ratio'd by puritans.No cool ideas allowed, must strictly adhere to nostalgia.
>>737599490here's a (You) so you get ratio'd here too
>>737558883>>737551450>>737543312how do you do this? how do you bypass censorship?
>>737599490I wouldn't mind warriors getting knockback resistance earlier and it's actually way beyond level 120. It's like 30 skill points which you need mastery books for aswell. It is massive quality of life for warriors(any class really), but you also have to decide if you want to spend those first ten levels getting it or if you even have the books for it.I wouldn't mind them having an easier time with knockback which was already given to spearmen in 2nd job with Iron Will: Level 30 (MAX)MP -25; Weapon Def. +50, 35% chance to ignore knockbacks for 300 secWhy spearmen only is maybe because they're thinking you can go shield with Hero or Paladin, idk.While it's a nice quality of life thing for warriors I don't think it would matter much if they went with the old system either. Some would say it's part of the struggle being a warrior and reaching high level being nice to finally not be pushed around anymore.
>>737600089I don't even see it so much as a quality of life, but rather giving warriors a unique trait.Every other class has better mobility or a teleport. Warrior have no mobility and no range. They should have at least one unique quality to offset that.I'm willing to bet if they put the new shield blocking mechanic to a poll, most of the autistic playerbase would vote no because it's different, but the devs put it in and it works fine. Not everything from the pre-BB days is good.
>>737599490this is a good idea. power knockback should also be more useful for archers. i think threaten should be remade into a passive skill that debuffs mobs on hit instead of it having to be an active skill, then have threaten replaced with a very quick animation aggro skill with threaten's range. anything to make page useful, it's so shit and it doesn't make any sense why
>>737599490I don't understand why warriors have bad accuracy, it should be the ranged characters that miss not the ones smacking the monster right in front of them
>>737601025who's the instructor?
>>737600298For me the best part about warrior was always having a high HP pool. Early on it doesn't matter much, but later on being able to take like 10 hits while other classes had to sweat from getting two shot is a huge thing imo. Currently they are taking quite a lot of damage due to the change with i-frames and defense not really working out too well either. Granted the HP stuff goes deeper when you start to look at thieves with avoidability, mages having magic guard and archers just hope there is no pot lag.I think the shield blocking mechanic seemed interesting, but still in need of work. I do agree that not everything from the older era was good and I'm very much in favor for changes, but can also see why some would disagree.>>737600345Power knockback being good is what would make archers a lot more fun. I think increasing the ammount of monsters from 4 to 6 or dropping it to first job and looking at amazon's judgement slow being maybe a second or two higher to allow a bit more breathing room would be nice for achers.I do hope they give pages some love aswell as otherwise it's not looking good with their blunt weapon mastery being a bit underwhelming and threaten also being underwhelming. I think threaten is exactly the kind of a skill that would shine in maps with really high HP/DEF monsters and bosses, but in the current state and early on it doesn't do much.I think a lot of these skills and playstyles in older maple just need the time and levels to start showing off and while I don't personally mind it at all. I can't say the same for others if I would ask do they want to put like 400h into a class so it gets better and more fun or do you just pick something else or play something else.
>>737521561>only let streamers play and give them fomo shitterrible first impressions and behavior that belongs back in 2011, just gonna skip it entirely
>>737601168Warriors having high HP is significantly less of an advantage now since they implemented 30s cooldown on elixirs.Now everyone will be using fixed value potions for healing. With pet autopot active, having high HP won't even matter while grinding.
>>737601310Good, we don't want fomotards like you.
>>737601310there's no proof they prioritized streamers, on the contrary half the people i saw playing said they were given a code by by someone else and would have missed out otherwise. it's moreso that people who would bother to go to one of the irl events probably skews towards content creators, and they got guaranteed spots
>>737601025That training ground feature KMS added is fantastic for showcasing just how autistic blaster and cadena players actually arehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2k-3S3uXn0https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uYEO1ugDxnE
Give me a reason why I shouldn’t make a sin day 1 on classic
>>737601765Nobody wants to be a basic bitch.
>>737601025I wanted to like Blaster but holy fuck I am not doing that
>>737601312I do hope pet autopot works properly for people outside of NA. My experience with it from private servers was that it wasn't 100% reliable so on lower HP classes you could still die and lose experience just because the pet decided to not heal.If autopot works reliably than the HP is indeed a bit of a nothing burger. Especially if they won't introduce areas where squishier classes would get one tapped and this kind of starts spiraling into HP washing being removed and exactly how it is going to look later on.I think warriors taking less damage and buffing their damage or knockback would help them a bit to make the class feel more powerful. Currently it's just being in melee sucks and they don't really have anything to show for being stuck in that state either.>>737601765Assassins will be very popular no matter what and they will likely not nerf it massively at any point. The only reason I can come up with is that your equipment+stars+scrolls would cost a lot because of popularity. Other than that I'm sure they'll be a good class with mobility and a fun playstyle so go for it.
me on the front page!i did me surveytold em to let us rebind movement keys
>>737601868>rebind movement keysSorry the technology just isn't here yet unless you are japanese in which case the technology is here
>>737601868mad how the /msg/whales try to claim classic has already failed.
>>737601868Shit I was one platform too low to appear in the picture they took, I knew it. I'm getting group photo fomo.
>>737601312I didn't read the chain at all but warriors having high HP is still significant because it allows them to survive attacks that would normally 1-hit.I'm assuming you're talking about modern maplestory since nobody in Classic should be using elixirs for anything.Paladin, for instance, can ignore most mechanics up until mid-late game bossing because he has damage % reductions up the asshole and has a high passive guard chance.>t. paladin main
>>737601954I would unironically use keyboard again if I could switch movement to WASD.Right now I feel forced to use joy2key.
>>737601997>I didn't read the chain at all but warriors having high HP is still significant because it allows them to survive attacks that would normally 1-hit.Anon, this is not a thing outside of Horntail and maybe the Showa boss(which likely won't be in classic).In the closed playtest, warriors having high HP literally had zero advantage. They actually had to burn more pots because they are a melee class with no avoidability.>I'm assuming you're talking about modern maplestory since nobody in Classic should be using elixirs for anything.No, endgame in old Maplestory and private servers is elixir-driven. Everyone would go to NLC and stock up on that shit until enough Power Elixirs had been farmed.Nobody ever used shit like Reindeer Milk or Sunset Dew for recovery, which is what Classic is now enforcing.
>>737601862>squishy classes have to pay to not dieMMOs are a cancer to the video game industry
>>737602207Oh you're talking about Classic nevermind Though more bosses should enforce potion lock
>>737601802>tfw no autistic blaster main gf to teach me how to play
>>737601868Did the survey have any interesting questions in it?>>737602324I did not mean it like that, no. You can do just fine manually potting as long as you are using high enough potions to recover the damage in case you would be at a place where you get 2-3 shot so you have enough time to use potions.However since autopot on pets will be on launch my main worry is that if they'll work reliably for people outside of NA or if there is any lag on it in general. I'm still a little hesitant on letting the warrior on launch plan go as getting 2-3 shot can make late game grinding/farming a major pain in the ass if autopot does not behave. Ultimately I'd likely just manually pot in those scenarios if this is the case as I don't want to play lottery with my pet deciding do I die or live.

>>737606762Moron, that's Royalsfag.>>737607272RustySpider was partying with Lewd aka MrJingles until about level 90-100. You can't trust these /v/ niggers to not create 3 splintered discords, invite normies and foids and clique out all the anons.
>>737607512you are not mrjingles, madwolf. He actually had a girlfriend, something you will never have in your life.
I think I'll go with a buddylist only from the looks of things. I know not every anon is like this what you see in the threads, but damn.
>maplestory discord classic channel literally a filipino hivemind
>>737607576Just join a normal guild you find in-game. I guarantee these autists won't invite anyone they deem a normie so you won't end up in their guilds accidentally.
>>737607620Stick to discord, slopher.
>>737607631Not your boogeyman, autist.
>>737607607what is the trooncord, anyway? I heard they were making official surveys there.
>>737607550Nice try, Thunderwrath, but you don't know anything.
>>737607928They have a Classic Suggestions/Feedback channel.Their general channel for classic discussion is saturated with autistic filipino monkeys who chimp out all the time.
I knew this >>737599490 would get ratio'd.Not that Classic's fate depends on this being implemented, but if you listen to the community too much, then the project is doomed to fail the same way OSRS nearly did.
>>737608327I read your supposed comment believing it'd be some retarded shit but it seems reasonable. It's not even gamebreaking
Why do normgroids and troons even join /v/ guilds anyways? You're not supposed to invite your crossdresser discord boyfriend into the guild and then splinter off when you get called a faggot.
>>737608327This is why I hope Nexon is taking very limited community input and just do whatever they want. You can't count on their retarded playerbase to make good decisions.
Reading how some haven't gotten their surveys makes me think... did they send the survey to the email that received the actual code? So people who got given a code or bought one did not get the survey since it goes to the original email that actually got the code in the first place.
>>737601979/msg/ is scared that their general will be taken over by the better game just like how wows did with classic launch
>>737609380makes sense
Is it possible for Classic to actually attract a new playerbase? Or will it always be the same autistic filipino monkeys?
osrs managed to grow past just nostalgia i'm sure classic can do the same
>>737609540In a way obviously it would make sense to send the survey to the email or account that actually played the closed test, but I could see this happening now that I started thinking about it. It wouldn't suprise me if they fumbled this aswell and just sent the surveys to the emails the actual codes were sent to.What would be even funnier is if the closed test rewards would be also sent to the original email as a code you redeem in the cash shop on launch.
>>737609380I got mine via email signup and no survey yet. It's more likely they're actually just staggering the emails.
>>737609380>>737609704Nevermind saw someone mention they got the survey even if they weren't using the original email.>>737609730Odd they would send them out in waves, but whatever.
>>737609592That's because the devs realized they can't just strictly adhere to what the puritan whales want. They recognized the need to change and reaped the rewards.So far it looks like Nexon is doing a decent job implementing new things like the shield block mechanic (which would've 100% been ratio'd by the filipino autists if it went to a vote). We'll see if they can keep it up.
>>737610123they need to stick to classic as classic then do ingame votes like OSRS to add or change anything
>>737610593can tell you right now the community feedback upvoting/downvoting is not promising if nexon are listening to that.
>>737610593I've been against polling from the beginning. Worked for OSRS, good for them. I refuse to believe it's good for nexon and the maplestory audience.
>>737609380i bought a key and got the survey to the email i activated the key on
>tfw the closed playtest endedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJstyRBLqBQ
>>737610831>>737609776I corrected myself after finding that out. I guess they are reviewing the accounts before sending the emails? Instead of just the usual easy way of send surveys to all these accounts.I hope they have some fun information in the upcoming announcement like how many reached this level or how much total meso was gotten etc.
>>737583470Clearly you didn't play OG maplestory. People were always dressed up in gaudy cash shop cosmetics since the beginning. Just most people playing were too young to have a job or couldn't justify paying the 15-30 bucks every 90 days for their clothing. Haircuts and plastic surgery were always permanent though and generally the only things worth spending real world money on aside from pets and ap/sp resets.
>>737610759thats why it only works when the game is strictly classic 0 changes, that filters out people first, then adds voting later
>>737581564bosses are garbage when other players killsteal them and their respawns are so long.
>>737610854If you've ever been in a "situationship" that burned bright and faded out quickly, that's exactly what the closed online test felt like. A fucking beautiful flash in the pan that came and went, and only after it's over do you realize how special it was. Damn.
>>737611531Better make friends and party up then.
would you?
>>737582589Anyone who thinks the grinding pattern for bossing is meaningfully better than mobbing is a genuine subhuman.
Should Angel Slime be in Classic?
>>737600502Accuracy is literally the one thing that archers have going for them as a character design, and thieves need to be better than archers at everything or else mass suicides.
>>737601025I still get mad when I see wild hunter. what a janky piece of shit class with the shitty dash jumps holy fuck that sucked. Mechanic and Battle mage were amazing
>>737558883>>737543312WHATTHEFUCK
>>737611786>and thieves need to be better than archers at everything or else mass suicides.the funny thing is that hermits/nightlords were actually mogged in endgame by every other ranged class except bowmaster in proper party compsthey just had the most solofag qol like the random potion boosts and flash jump and meso up
>>737611535Do numaple zoomers really think this?
Will this be the last Maplestory Classic thread on /v/ in a while? Not going to be much to talk about until December.
>>737528381well it's not going to be on PC so I won't be playing it anytime soon
can zoomers keep themselves from ninjalooting bosses?
>>737612028no because the regular shitposter who kept making maplestory nostalgiabait threads will probably continue spamming them every few days
>>737611995Keep projecting you sad, misanthropic sack of shit. I got introduced to maplestory in 2005 by my friends who played in the original beta test.
>>737612275as a boomer thats my loot im entitled to it
>no because the regular shitposter who kept making maplestory nostalgiabait threads will probably continue spamming them every few days
>>737612275Zakum Helm should not be dropped by Zakum.Zakum should drop the materials required to craft it, and it should be difficult to craft.It should also be a level 140 equip because Zakum is a level 140 monster.
>>737612386That's what literally every numaple zoomer says. I'd know who you are if you actually played in OdinMS, DestinyMS, or Extalia which /v/ played from 2008-2012.
can't wait to laugh at beta ringlets when the game come out
>>737612028I've baked a few of these during the test and I won't be making one until we know when open beta is coming. So probably months.
>>737599967You have to generate with ComfyUI using your own GPU. It's quite easy.
Will Jett be added back to Classic?
>>737613267>back
uhh, so did i just scam myself if I scammed an ebay seller for a key? my closed test rings are just gonna go to his email/account once the game launches?
>>737613643>my closed test rings are just gonna go to his email/account once the game launches?Haha, is that how it works? I assumed it was account based.
>>737613795i honestly have no clue and im sweating right now. it would honestly be pretty funny though, especially for all the people who actually bought the codes for like $300
>>737613643I'm assuming you read my post, but no. I corrected myself about this after I saw someone talking how they got the survey even if they weren't the original code receiver. I just thought it would be funny if they sent out the beta rewards in a similar manner, but also realised this means they would be sold on ebay so it doesn't make sense.Saying that it doesn't really make sense how did they think this sign up system was a good idea in the first place, but spilt milk and all that.
I feel like maple is just too simple and grindy, it'll be fun for a while but nostalgia only lasts so long and I doubt new people will hit a wall around 30-50 quit or nexon will just repeat the updates that turned maple into what it is now.
>>737614106Worked for OSRS.I think there's potential there if they don't fuck it up, but it did take OSRS a few years to get off the ground.
>>737614106Explain why OSRS succeeded.
>>737614338Ironman
>>737614338>OSRSalso its a good game with interesting mechanicswhen i look back now on classic i really fail to see the appeal to someone who is 30 years old with no close friends playing itit's literally braindead mobbing
>>737611978>they just had the most solofag qol like the random potion boosts and flash jump and meso upWhich is ironic because they were the least solo friendly class after 120. Straight dogshit without an archer attached to their crotch, it’s the main reason I never played one.
>>737614937Explain how OSRS is a good game with interesting mechanics.
>>737612416They're all right there in the archive, anon.
>>737615028its more interesting than maple that ishow is classic interestingit doesnt even have pvp
>>737615010yeah every other job hits their stride at 4th jobnightlord isn't terrible at 4th job obviously, but it's slightly weaker than the others without their respective support buffs. a bowmaster on their own will generally grind faster than a solo nightlord as long as they aren't in a shitty map that needs high mobility
>>737615112ok bro i was on your side till you said PvP, you fucking porchmonkey
>>737615171those people dont play these types of videogames
>>737615112>its more interesting than maple that isYou didn't explain anything you stupid idiot.
>>737615042You have no way of telling who is making threads, and who each poster is, schizo.Go outside you terminally online freak. Spending too much time on 4chan rots your brain.
>>737615349cope
I hope they don't focus too much on the combat. I mean make it interesting enough to interact with grinding mobs but they need to make exploring the priority, forgotten hollow didn't seem like a big deal
>>737615412You should've just prefaced from the start that you have an IQ of 60.
>>737615475sounds like cope
Autists need to accept reality.There will be x2 exp coupons, and that's fine.
>>737616472You should chill just saying
>>737616526Accept reality, anon.
I wrote on the survey to increase exp, add cygnus and delete evasion from monsters
I wrote to ignore any and all feedback
>>737614338>whyBecause they didn't listen to purists and started adding major new content and changes.OSRS is successful precisely because it isn't just an archived version of 2007 runescape, but because it is it's own maintained MMO that went a separate direction from RS3 in terms of update philosophy. Basically, Maplestory has a good core of a game but it isn't a game build for the modern age at all, it does not reward your time investment with interesting content. It would need similar treatment like OSRS did but that also requires Nexon to spend a lot of resources on content that isn't just adding some maps with a handful of new monsters and a reskinned mushmom.
>>737617923zased
>>737601561>5+ skills rotationI thought Illium was bad enough.
So, when will they release this shit
>>737619491not for another year lolwe might see another beta in the summer or fall
>>737619024Now imagine doing all that while also having to actually dodge boss patternshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbaEIGzWKAQhttps://youtu.be/n-jFEvDZAY0?t=905
was it true archers got fucked over in the beta?
>>737620480if you arent fucking over archers specifically, are you even a maplestory designer?the evil eyes for archer 2nd job promotion were specially programmed to have double the evasion of every other promotion monster because fuck archers specifically. this is the same balance check from the same devteam that forgot to give the ones in the mage promotion magic avoid.
>>737620480Everyone that didn't wear a dress or a claw got it in the ass, but archers got it in every hole.
>>737620480They mainly suffered from the accuracy being all over the place for all classes outside of mages. The vertical hitbox(downwards) for projectiles is also off and you can barely hit anything below you. Bow whacking got introduced back into the game so you do need to reach mid fourties to get maxed Power Knockback to help you have some control. Arrow bomb is also not really working properly in terms of hitbox or something.They seem to be solid as long as those issues are fixed which they most likely will be all fixed. You do have to be more careful aswell due to the i-frame being shorter now so if an enemy spawns on top of you or you try to avoid it, you can take a lot more damage. Might be fixed aswell, have to see what they do.
>>737620642Why did they lower iframes and increase movement speed across the board anyway? This fucks with how the game works way more than even downjump
>>737529859That's not why LaTale ended up dying.
>>737620712technically less Iframes is a page buff.
>>737620712Common theories are:A) They copied a lot of values from modern while making ClassicB) They are fucking retarded
>>737612531I do mean this genuinely. If you played Odin and didnt immediately drop out of it the moment you got a feel for the texture of the game, let alone sticking around long enough to be joining a dedicated /v/ guild and enjoying the experience of such, I do not want to know you.
>>737620725I don't know why "it ended up dying", but I do know input delay was a big problem. It's also why I dropped the game after 2 minutes.
should i try numaple or skippah
>>737583783>>737622296You owe me some net worth
>>737622296Sure, why not? It won't take long to figure out if you like it.
>>737622296wait till june if u wanna
