Can Nexon Ever repopulate the dead Worlds?
Well, there are some EXTREMELY dead worlds and well, can Nexon have any events that would make players xfer or just join these worlds, AND keep them playing?
Ex. Nova, Zenith, El Nido, Mardia, Kradia, yellonde, Galacia and Dethmethos.
Can nexon entice them enuff?
What I was thinking, 4x or 5x exp 24/7 for a while (Should bring in the masses)
Then allow FM permits be purchased for less, or allow merchants be purchsed for longer and cheaper than other worlds (Our worlds only have 3-4 full rooms)
And allow for world xfers into these worlds
Then also Have Cubes work twice as effictively in our worlds (We have Little to ZILCH godly gears) (But, to prevent xfer cube xfer situions, all potentials cubed in a world will be reset to 2 Lines Rare) (ie, You can cube, but have a higher % change of getting favorable stats like % stats (STR,DEX,INT,LUK) and Decent Skills and Tier Upgrades
Then have our FMs merged and give us ch 14 or recode cygnus door
Then have

Lol even scania is starting to die. Nexon messed up a lot these past few months. People are quitting like nuts.
This is something nexon should have done from the beginning. In the beginning, they had only scania and no other server for a long time, so many players would be on scania and all their friends would join scania and new players would see scania's overpopulation as a fun server.
The only solution to this is for FREE world transfers to lower populated servers (not scania, bera, broa, or windia as they have decent population.)
[quote=HoneyPot]@xDracius: Well after awhile people would leave.
If dead worlds were actually to get this, all servers would get them too.
I don't think even Nexon would favor a server.[/quote]
-_-. Its to balance out population between the worlds if u can understand that. Scania has way too many ppl. If they were to give new servers 2x and provided players with world tranfer cards ppl would leave populated worlds for the dead worlds so things would balance out.
Yes they can.
How?
Rename dead worlds into popular worlds
Rename popular worlds into dead worlds
Make server fullness a lower max for dead worlds to make the servers seem fuller than popular worlds.

They have in the past. Nexon has done x2 events for a month when servers came out prebb. It really worked to help build the population of that server.
YOUR FAULT FOR PICKING A DEAD WORLD.
Now get out of here with your complaints.
[quote=Chocorate]Or just merge:
Kradia-Yellonde
Mardia-Bellocan
Nova-Zenith[/quote]
Chu forgot Galacia
The cubes thing would be difficult to implement... Cuz it ALWAYS WORKS, EVERY TIME.
...
I think they should just do a few more world combinations and stop releasing new worlds all the time.
The is one thing i would like to say, is that When we have 13 channels, we can't do empress, detracting a decent amount of people. And when your fm has about 15 people, its not much of a market
in order for something to be [b]re[/b]populated they need to have been populated in the first place
The empress channel problem is perhaps one of the biggest let downs for worlds like demethos.
[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKu2Tin44a4&] Witness the problem yourself[/url]
I feel if they was to give us an empress channel it would make our higher levels want to stay, There's also lots more factors.. Of the top of my head, CHT drop requirement (combined with the ht glitch). It's hard enough to run in a large world because of the ht glitch, not allowing more than 30 players per channel! Now imagine in smaller worlds you need 12 people at least! to survive to the main room. then 10 of those to be alive when it dies, In worlds like demethos it is extremely difficult to get 12 people to come on a boss run, let alone have all of them survive and not dc..
I could ramble on about this all day but nothing will be done.

This is why I made this thread. It keeps getting spammed out but I hope that if it was seen enough then perhaps something MIGHT be done.
@HoneyPot: I'm from Windia, I went to Chaos because I have friends there that I hung out with months back.
I also had friends from Windia but then I quit because there were so many people who were antsy.
you forgot arcania/
[quote=xFruitSliced]It's different for chaos since it used to be as populated as khaini....[/quote]
yeah, now chaos is dieing
- Transfer character to train at 4-5x EXP
- Merchant for a while to build easy mesos
- Sell all cubed/perfected gear
- Get WS/GM/Protection scrolls for all the money made
- Transfer back when the exp/cube rates go back to normal
- Make profit and be higher lvl
My point, your idea will not work and nexon won't do it.
nexon can spawn player NPCs so that it won't be as dead before
It's too much work for them. This game has so much potential, too bad it's wasted on a money-hungry company like Nexon.
[quote=HoneyPot]Why should you guys get 4x or 5x exp?
The fm store rules, is stupid.
Cubes shouldn't work twice as effectively.
Nexon doesn't have to do squat for that stupid server.
Not our fault you chose some dead ass world.
Only because you're in a dead world you get better stuff?
You officially lost your mind.
Greedy, much?[/quote]
No, we choose to go to the dead worlds to get away from all the bullscats that are in bigger servers. Nexon should do other stuff for other servers because they are low but not 4x or 5x, but maybe something else. Don't blame somebody for being in a dead world. They have their reasons but not only that, we aren't greedy, we just want more company in the dead servers. More company in servers means more new friends. Do you like making new friends or do you like being lonely?
Or maybe you should quit and join a populated world? If you're going to complain about a world being low populated then don't play in it.
Scania Windia and Bera aren't even that greatly populated... Not nearly as much as they once were and those are the 3 highest populated.

Arcania is so dead, nobody even remembers to include it in the list of world that are dead.
OT: If we got free world transfers, I would probably world xfer out of Arcania. fm sucks and nobody pqs Probably xfer to Windia
Galicia really isn't that bad... the population picks up in the summer by a lot for some reason....
as for right now, yeah the FM is pathetic and I've logged on plenty of days seeing channel one's pop under half full..
to be honest though i don't think we need to merge.... but a channel 14, for all those worlds that don't have it, would be nice >->
[quote=aJasp37]well, i know when deme first came out there was 2x 24/7 for about 2-3 weeks
that attracted a lot of people to it right away, but look at it now >.>
the best way would be to offer free xfers if and only if you're going to a "dead" server, which obviously nexon would denote which ones are "dead"[/quote]
Sure the fact that they're acknowledging that certain servers are "dead" looks bad but it's quite obvious when you compare 2-3 full parties in LHC at peak times to nearly every channel having a party in worlds like Scania.
Oh and to the people who go on about how "every world is dead now, blah blah new maple sucks blah blah" need to go away. Maplestory is what it is now, stop whining about how dead the game is just because your friends quit. The world doesn't revolve around you.
and El Nido will be the most underpopulated world
El Nido + Arcadia? o.o
[quote=Rayshun]MERGE THESE SERVERS NEXON GOD DAMMIT!
Kradia~Mardia
Yellonde~Demethos
Chaos~Nova
Galicia~Arcania
Zenith~ Whoever (lol)
So we can LHC and PQ Please![/quote]
Yellonde and Kradia are the two worlds that are supposed to be merged. I don't wanna merge with those stinky Demethians. </3 Just kidding Demethos, you're fine with me. I still want Kradia though.
Knowing nexon...
Nope. Never. Unpopulated servers shall remain dead to the very end.
El Nido's fine as is.. there's a decent population to keep it going, and they have the perk of having all 20 channels. Can't say the same about what's happened to the community though. Lol
Thing is, they're too busy making people in the populated servers alone quit.
merge them?
@airforce1: i would estimate that bera has roughly half as many players as it did even a few months ago.
And for the record, almost all of your "fixes" would completely break your world and pretty much all the other worlds. (double the chances to cube well.. are you serious? you do realize that people would just create characters in that world and transfer them to ther worlds after cubing)
[quote=Laguniroth]you do realize that even the "populated" worlds are nearly dead right?[/quote]
Does your FM fill past 3? Mine doesn't. We have at most 2 LHC parties during PEAK playing times. I think you need to reevaluate your comparison.
@HoneyPot We didn't chose to play in a dead server. Zenith was well populated when it began for the first 1-3months. Only in the last 2-3months has it become "dead". Am I supposed to shell out $25 for a server transfer because other people chose to quit/leave? That is unfair.
I do believe there should be free world transfers from overpopulated worlds to underpopulated ones. I also believe there should be low population exclusive events. Nothing game breaking like 2x cube rates, but simple things like GM events that attract people without giving an exploitable economic advantage. Shifting populations from heavy traffic servers to "dead" ones is part of healthy gameplay and would alleviate a lot of the server crashes due to traffic overloads.
you do realize that even the "populated" worlds are nearly dead right?
Free World Transfers seems the only way to "attract" people from moving into those servers,
down part to this is that people from the dead worlds would probably move. xD

Well, I'm pretty sure he SPECULATED those things so as to entice (Which means attract, or draw) players into transferring into those words, since some elements of the game are severely hindered/aided by player population.
Simplest way:
Hand 2 free world transfers to each account. since most people have 2 main characters.
I know that if my friends and I all got it, we'd move together
