How do you guys feel about
Nexon disabling the ability to view other player's damage and skill animations while bossing?
(at least i THINK you can't see other player's skills)
personally i think it takes away a little epicness of bossing.
(watch dray's old "Maplestory heroes VS *insert big name boss here* videos)
watching the numbers just being spammed was pretty cool.
I think it'll make bossing feel a little like you're soloing even when you're not.
How about you guys? how do these changes make you feel?

numbers make me lag a bunch so I'm glad I can only see my numbers.
I like seeing all of the cool spam of numbers, but I suppose it would help with lag and being able to see it better when bosses do things like reflect. Like with the mystic bosses, that would have been very helpful since all you could see was everyone's skills and then all of a sudden everyone is dying from a reflect that they couldn't see lol.
Probably one of the best things that could have been added to the game, first of all due to reducing lag and allowing people with slow computers to actually join boss runs with multiple people. It also removes away being rejected due to low damage and the annoying damage whores that keep annoying other players about how low their damage is.
[quote=Wordolio]does anyone know if you can still see it while fighting mobs like in LHC and etc still? or is it just bosses?[/quote]
I believe it's only bosses. You notice it in KMS Post-Unlimited bosses, but then again, no one uploads a "training" video in KMS.
I hate it, everyone looks weird without their skill animations. Shadowers hopping around, AB's just spinning in the sky and everyone else just looks like they are spasming.
It was implemented in Mystic bosses and Root Abyss but I haven't done any other boss yet. I really wish it was an optional thing.
Wish they made it optional.

[quote=YoPurple]Iv heard about this,but did they actually implement it in GMS this patch? I dont like the idea really,im with you on the whole "looks cool seeing lots of numbers" thing lol. But i do think itll help with lag issues,so thats a plus.[/quote]
well, i couldn't imagine the numbers making you lag THAT much, i could sort of understand if skills were doing that though, especially with those graphically intense hyper skills.
i think they are just making the game too flashy for it's own good, that now they need to dumb down other aspects of the game, just so people's lower-end computers are able to process it.
Back in they day, you could use a dump of a computer and maple would run fine, because it was so simple.
man, i miss those times haha. the simplified version of maplestory was epic in it's own way.
and people keep suggesting to go play a low-rate, v55 Pizza Slice, but those aren't the same at all.
lameness ahah. I do like they dynamic feel of newer maplestory too, but i think they are beginning to take it too far. (potential is one thing, but ADDITIONAL POTENTIAL? and NEBULITES? stahp nexon, stahp!)
