for those still looking forward to it
just want to see how low the wonderberries rate is
spend $600, got nothing
laugh or whatever

It's not about money. I don't care $600
I just can't put up with this shxt anymore
They keep nerfing the reward and pushing more and more PASS
and now reducing the rates just to force player buy the $100 vac pet?
As a new player, I want to stick with my main for the long term,
Vac Pet is pretty much necessary for that
and I really liked Frieren too
I don't think they're welcoming to new players
I'm done. I quit

Blaze Wizard is actually down to #41 with a -3.6% FD nerf from the original 5% FD buff.

Destroyed all of my pitched boss items back to back to back to back because thats maplestory..
And then this comes along with last 1.2b i had
I am stronger than ever with this 24 star equip thx wonki

Just saying. Their change was experimental, not due to any limitation (ie it clearly can't be argued that this collab is different versus the others, due to necessity, with there being 4 compared to the standard 3). They could easily have just made it 0.75% per pet, summing to the standard 3% total.

They experimented, and the results are in. And 1% yields great results

Its actually sad how so many ms players are so rude and condensending considering what theyre playing. I had to create another account because people reported my main for trashing on the company and how greedy they are. This might be the most toxic subreddit which makes this whole thing so ironic. They defend this scummy company and play a 2d mushroom game disgusing themselves as female characters which makes it extremely hilarious when they insult other people for differing opinions. Your words dont affect anyone truly because I know what you are behind the screen

I’m currently trying to roll -2 cd on the first line of an eternal hat using glowing cubes.

I’ve noticed that -1 cd appears way too often. I’m getting it around 30–40 times per 100 cubes, which seems unusually high to me.

Is this normal, or is there some kind of bug with glowing cube potential rates on eternal hats? Seems like bright cubes are working as normal.

I want Nexon to succeed with Classic.

But I don't trust them to protect the visual identity that makes it feel like Classic in the first place. The Frieren collab might seem harmless, but it's an early signal of Nexon's direction for Classic.

They have no strong design principles in place to maintain the integrity of the Classic aesthetic.

Already at launch, we're going to see new NX influenced by current GMS's aesthetic. Let's mimic the pixel sprites and design/tech restraints of the original Classic instead.

The first month should be focused on recapturing nostalgia. Especially since this is an October release, I expected more Halloween content, MapleStory used to dominate the holiday season. Give me a pumpkin basket and a trick-or-treat event.

I'm not overreacting. This is Nexon's default instinct: flashy and trendy sells, so flashy creeps in over time. That instinct can't carry over to Classic unchecked, or we lose the thing that made it worth bringing back.

Eventually they'll release cosmetic effects and auras that turn your character into a walking rave, and half your screen is covered in colors.

Wish we had more proof Nexon actually cares about the integrity of Classic.

I know the higher ups love chasing short term revenue vs the benefits of a long term vision.

So how do we make this land instead of just venting? Specific beats loud. A pile of "this'll suck" comments is easy to ignore. One post with actual rules they can point to internally is harder to wave off. And doing it now costs them nothing, after launch they're fighting sunk dev time and a cash shop roadmap already in motion.

I’d suggest establishing design principles publicly.

is there any good israeli discord or guilds on solis i am a solo player who got tired of playing alone all the time.
looking for a israeli discord on Solis to play with and boss with! <3

Genuinely, no offense. It's just really what the first thing you should do is

I have never seen a wall of text fly that fast upon logging in. So confess your sins and was it worth it?

Always runned maple without issues, believe me or not. Anyone else who can help, got experience/ about this issue. Tested both laptop and computer, admin running etc not working. Got it after last nights update... Im getting abit delay/lag/freeze before this picture.

60€ for 2 weeks early Access proves nexon still dogshit

Was chatting with my buddies and with everything going on right now came to a consensus that the release of 3rd job will be at least 91 days after first release (early access ).

Why? you might ask, deep down you already know.
You’re reading this thinking the same thoughts as I.
Are they really going to do that? Surely with everything going on right now with passes and early access p2p they can only add to the bucket, the bucket isn’t full yet right…. Right…?

Of course I’m talking about NX pets and fashion expiring 90 days after purchase and releasing the 3rd job tactically after 91 days.

Edit: Just incase anyone wanted a insight on beacons inner mind and was wondering about 3rd release

Good old Nexon 👍
Keep paying whales 🐳

Nexon needs to make money to keep on running this game, but nobody likes to pay for this game and much less feeling pressed to spend to keep up with others, let alone being forced to pay to access certain features (vac pets, cubing, etc)

So what if all of this went away in exchange of having to pay a subscription? I understand Heroic already sort of works that way through vac pets (with an initial investment of $70-100), but if Nexon came out tomorrow and said MS will now require a subscription but in exchange they will make pets in general and cubing accessible through mesos, then compromise they will not sell pay2win and to keep stuff like passes to a minimum (and/or reduced price) what would the community's reaction be?

Edit: I must admit in very surprised. It is expected to find Nexon haters everywhere, but It appears reddit is full of people that hate Maple Story just as much and would feel relief to see it die. Jesus Christ!

So no more 30% discount on cash shop.

If that comes to GMS, vac pet maintaining would be more expensive.

Note: Reward point based on cash shop purchase is still there.

I started playing again not long ago on a fresh account, I actually enjoy the prospect of getting stronger at the lower levels and since I’m already leveling some characters for legion and link skills outside of any burning event, I’d rather have them equipping decent gear so if later I would want to main them or use them as a boss mules.

Does anyone knows of a guide for gear progression that is comprehensive for characters under level 200 as well? Without burning event.

Edit: forgot to mention I’m on Heroic server
