What is Maplestory missing? [quote=jolteon7]you don't want the old maple back. you want the old community back.[/quote] I read this while surfing through a recent post. Reading this post teaches you many things about the game. What if it's that the newer patches of the game are missing something? Missing the community factor? Missing the social factor completely?
User Generated Events [header]User-Generated Events[/header] Events have become cookie-cutter for Nexon. They tend to never leave these templates: - Stay online for 30 minutes - Hunt 300 monsters - Get 20 of these, 20 of these, 20 of these, and 20 of these - Keep doing this for 8 days to get a good equip! - Get to level 30, 50, 70 and 120 - Get your new class to level 30, 50, 70 and 120 - Spend coins for weapons and armour, and some new ones in the [i]store[/i] Level up events are all well and fine, but that's all what we usually are given. There's nothing else to do, other than do this for 30 minutes or hunt 300 monsters. These '[i]celebration[/i]' events are merely just to get players to level their new heroes to 70 and quit after getting
Hero Revamp Idea This is the first of a bigger idea, but I want your comments before I do the rest. The idea is an attempt to scale down the damage, for example, all %damage is planned to be halved, because frankly, the high numbers are unnecessary. So you may notice that the damage for attacks are halved. The damage range formula also changes; it is based on base attack, and multiplied by the weapon multiplier to give the base damage range. This brings numbers down to size similar to what we've seen pre-BB, and all damage is not altered, except just scaled. The other purpose to this revamp is to allow players more flexibility with their classes. Each class has the ability to choose between tank, specialist and support, and can mix and matc
What is your survivability tactic? Do you use familiars all the time? Build on high defense? Use Aran and Evan character cards? Use drain attack moves? Use drain potential? Recovery skills? Invincibility potential/nebs? Freeze your enemies? Anything else? Or do you just spam the pot key hoping to survive? :D
Who would win? Black Mage or Voldemort? Who would win? Voldemort vs. Black Mage Death Eaters vs. Black Wings Harry vs. Evan Hedwig vs. Mir Dumbledore vs. Grendel Aberforth vs. Alcaster Bellatrix vs. Hilla Snape vs. Demon Slayer Lucius Malfoy vs. Hooded Gentlemen Hogsmeade vs. El Nath Hogwarts Castle vs. Lionheart Castle The Hungarian Horntail vs. The Leafrian Horntail So many similarities!

Brand New Hack/Glitch Unkown I was training in a map and some guy randomly requested to join my party. I accepted because he was lvl 178. He left a few seconds and requested again. I accepted. Here's the catch: I was in Magatia while he was in Henesys Market. The party request was repeated over and over. So I go to him and see that he is just standing there. Then someone else came by at the same time and told him to stop it. That's when I knew it was either a hack or glitch. I said I was taking a screenshot and the guy logged off. He logged back in and I took a screenshot of him. He went back to spamming the Party request, not on me, but this time on many other people in Windia. More victims were coming to Henesys Market and I warned them n
2012 Prophecy in Maplestory? v1.21 Maplestory: Armageddon The Black Mage finally becomes a boss, but yet during this patch, hackers will close the game due to a severe hacking crisis. Maple religion. :3 --It's certainly a weird coincidence that Mutiny not only matches its content, but matches the current community issues. --It's certainly a weird coincidence that Renegades not only brought the rebirth of outlawed bad cops, but Ecko has seemingly returned and is now running about, also. --It's certainly a weird coincidence that Alliance Rising, Alliance Unbound, and Alliance Eternal gave temporary happiness to the Maple World, but it did to the community by putting problems on a low, and, while hacking was still a problem in the game, the Fa
Relationships in Maplestory? So my Sociology teacher wants to know our take on relationships/dating online. I figured, why not ask Maplestory? What are your thoughts, and pros/cons of a relationship in Maplestory, as opposed to the rest of the internet and the real world? Do they work out? With regular friends too. :)
Why you shouldnt be rage-quitting Did my research essay on video games and aggression. Found this: It is a recent posting from Rochester University. Grand Theft Auto does little to people, it is more likely how you experience the game that makes people aggressive, like say playing a jump quest or Call of Duty. EDIT: I wrote my essay on Skyrim... Link above is just a source lol. If you really want to read it go ahead:
Leviathan Fan Idea Just a fan creation: (Construcive criticism, don't insult it) [url=http://maplestory.nexon.net/Community/#%2Fshowthread.php%3F546494-Leviathan-Idea%26nxid%3D6]http://maplestory.nexon.net/Community/#%2Fshowthread.php%3F546494-Leviathan-Idea%26nxid%3D6[/url] EDIT: Changed skill digits to avoid being underpowered. Many players thought that the last hero would be a pirate, supposedly known as Lotus/Luffy/Leviathan. This is my interpretation of Leviathan.

Attention Dark Knights In terms of skills, what do DKs [b][i]need[/i][/b] to be balanced? What do you not like about the class? Is there anything missing? Any ideas or some interesting skills? Comment down below anything you feel should be said, because this thread will be a collaboration that will be part of a huge revamp that I am making (Re-Evolution). I plan to gather supporters from each class or area of the game, eventually leading to a full consensus for a real balance to the game. So far I've got the heroes, bishops, pqs and pvp. I plan to add every class, along with above said topics and a quest/npc overhaul that makes the game quite interesting and explorable. Yes, this is fanmade. However, with enough people to support the idea,
Wanted Dead or Alive Feedback TLDR To the basic point, all I mean to say is that a few more feedback threads (in example, reviews) than usual would be great to have. Dawn Warrior recently got released on KMSt. While it seems as though many people love it, others recognize the flaws. Some even trash the idea completely. This has been the case with every class that came out since Dual Blades. And ever since Big Bang, Nexon has been pressured into what people are noticing, cookie-cutter skills for everyone. This is a terrible problem a game can face. Players are starting to notice that most classes are losing their originality, and are victim to cookie cutter concepts, such as a gauge system, light/dark, and having multiple (or even all) types
Could you Imagine a Imagine a sandbox game based from Maplestory's community. Imagine a developed MMO with a set economy, guild systems, way of living, and how the players interact with each other - and then suddenly remove all the NPCs, and make all items realistically craftable, maps would be upgraded, guilds would govern, and players can merch and give real quests and jobs to those looking to hunt and have fun. Oh, and PvP - or PK - would exist in areas and channels... Perhaps even worlds. Imagine yourself being the Jr of a guild in GAZED. Your guild, Benevolence, managed to have relations with most, if not all, players along Eastern Ossyria. Your guild master has a good reputation with the community, you're involved on Basil, and player
Nexon Volunteer banned - Timbervvolf [b][i]EDIT: Due to the commotion in the comments, I was recommended to proceed future readers to the petition only. It states for future problems to be averted by allowing Nexon to provide reasoning and all of the appropriate evidence behind a ban, to aid with future wrongful bans. As far as Timberwolf goes, for the sake of him don't say anything negative. We don't want this thread going in the wrong direction. He deserves the respect, and whether you find he deserves the ban or not, he deserves the respect of all he's done for us besides the ban. Thanks. :)[/b][/i] #FreeTimber! Post on Twitter and remember to tag with your post! I'm not sure if anyone posted about Timbervvolf either this morning or over
