Only 3 months behind Kms now

Since the Pink Bean update was released in May, that makes us only 3 months behind KMS in updates now. This also means that the Reboot update will begin shortly after the Pink Bean event ends.

HYPE?

Also, GMS2 in October?

[quote=zcrimsyn]@looniemunki: First of all going into grammar nazi really tells you about your post. There really no reason to go all out grammar nazi just because I made some typos. Secondly, there have been proof that translations already been made. Do some research and you will know this. Thirdly, Just bc MS1 is dying doesn't mean that it be a stupid idea to bring in MS2. In fact it be a very good idea since it be there last straw of keeping the company afloat. As there is not many games making as much money other than MS in NA. Dragon Nest and Vindicitus don't even come close in bringing the profits MS1 had brought and are still bringing. You are correct there is no evidence as of yet that how of how much success the game is since it just came out. However, you can see it's doing pretty damn well if you actually played the game. It's very active there.

Lastly, just like I can not confirm a real release date for GMS2 as of yet. You can not state that you are 100% correct that MS2 is not coming over. It's obviously going to come over. It's just a matter of when it's coming over. MS1 did not fail right off the bat. It was years before it started to die. MS2 will definitely bring in some players. The biggest reason MS1 failed was bc it turned into a p2w solo type of game. MS2 is definitly not p2w nor a solo game. It requires plenty of team work to get anything worthwhile there. Again play KMS2 at least before posting your personal judgement. .Just because you are not personally fond of MS2 does not mean the game should not be brought over.[/quote]

See? You have no idea what I wrote. I said im 100% sure they havent started it. I never said im 100% sure it wont come out in america. I did not go grammar nazi all over you, why become so defensive? All i said was that your numerous typos made what you wrote very annoying to read. I dont know if youre just naive, dimwitted, or maybe it's wishful thinking but i think before trying to start an internet fight, you should: A. Chill out B. Think without pouring your emotions into your words C. Decide without prejudice

How about we say we just don't know. We don't work at Nexon do we? There might be a gms2, there might not be. IMO there probably will be a gms2 highly doubt early 2016 though.

[quote=zcrimsyn]Explain why you don't think GMS2 won't be released? There is no evidence that GMS2 has been prepared you're right but to say you 100% doubt it isn't correct either. Full translations are already in the game. There even some npc voices that are pure English in the game. There have been screen shots of in game of GMS1 of GMs saying that it will come "soon". There have been screen shots of live chats on Nexon NA where it's coming soon and to keep eye out but they also state that there is not exact date as of yet. GMS2 is most definitly going to go across to other places. KMS2 even stated that they will be working on bring the game abroad just right now it's not because they are concentrating on KMS2. So to say that you highly doubt it will ever come to NA is just silly. MS is there cash cow and it's obvious they will bring in other games that are that much of a high success. You even stated that KMS2 is a wild success. So it makes no sense for GMS2 NOT to come out. Even if it takes a year or so it will indeed come out. There just factual evidence of when it will come out..[/quote]

ANY translation of kms2 is unofficial. Made by fans for fans. Just because there are npc voices doesn't mean they're preparing anything lol. I didn't say kms2 was a wild success. I said unless it is a wild success. I'm not really trying to diss you or anything but not only have you misread what I've typed, you have many typos and it's really hard to read. Kms2 just came out so there's no way of knowing if its a hot game or not. No statistics on how much people have spent on the game and how many people are in the game itself. "Coming soon" is literally worth nothing. Blade and soul still hasn't been released and that was one of the hottest game in Korea for a very long time. The game was literally released in korea a month ago. What makes you think they're already preparing for GMS2 release?
I'm not trying to rain down on your parade or anything. But I'm Korean myself and so I know that maplestory itself is still a live game whereas maplestory in America is a dying game. I think releasing gms2 would be one of the most stupid thing Nexon can possibly do. America and Korea are very different. Their taste in gaming is also very different. The fact that GMS1 got so big is a wonder. I highly doubt nexon will get lucky again with a GMS2. Nexon has virtually NO way of advertising their games. I think in the past year I've seen 1 TV commercial, and even that was poorly executed.

[quote=looniemunki]I am 100% sure that gms2 isn't even being prepared right now. If it were to come, it would be released with most of the stuff released on kms2 atm.
Logically speaking, kms2 has to be a wild success for gms2 to come out. I, however, doubt it'll ever be released.[/quote]

Talking about MS2? Well I said my opinion so it's not factual evidence or anything. I say this because everything in the files are already translated, there been hints through Nexon NA already stating that it's coming soon and to keep an eye out. These hints include screen shots of in game GMs and live chats. Also KMS even stated that they will bring the game abroad soon but they are concentrating on the local version first. Either way I don't see MS2 taking longer than Summer of 2016. That's just my opinion on the subject though.''

Oh and yea we are indeed about 3 months behind from GMS in everything. We are basically caught up so reboot world might indeed come very soon. I say we get reboot world by Dec at the latest. Usually there big Winter update is our Summer update and there Summer is our Winter. We are getting much closer though than we did before. Not many updates left to go from here on out.

MS2 is loads of fun, there is no reason we wouldn't get GMS2. maybe not til winter or early next year, but it will come.

GMS wouldn't keep up with KMS updates even if they had the option to.
Not knowing what's next is the worst thing that can happen to the GMS team.

PB event is only 3 months behind, but our Tower of Oz update was still5 months behind. Don't get too excited man. PB is just an event. Our real updates are still a good 5 months behind KMS

MS2 will definitely release here. It's very hot in KMS already. No clue why you think there will be no GMS2 as despite the way it looks the gameplay is extremely good. I know this because I have an account there. Community aspect actually exists. I doubt GMS2 will come in Oct though but it will come. In my opinion early 2016 would be the earliest we get it.
