As it's borderline impossible to find a party for certain PQs, I was pretty excited when the cross world party quest thing was released. Unfortunately, having only one PQ being available every 2 weeks (or whatever it is) makes the whole thing a waste of time in my opinion.
Because of this, I came up with the idea of a Party Quest Search system, where you choose your PQ and it'll automatically put you in a group with others doing the same and teleport you all to the PQ entrance. I've tried to make it in a style similar to what's been used with KMS patch information, so hopefully it's pretty easy to understand.
Goes without saying really, but this is fan-made and will not be appearing in the game. This is just something I think people might enjoy if it were in the game.

OMG this is amazing! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
This should so become real! <3
Match found!
@HotBoi I was heartbroken when I realised something as simple as this hasn't been added during 9 years of development
@Gaosaurusx3 I've actually submitted to the Nexon forums [url=http://maplestory.nexon.net/community/#%2Fshowthread.php%3F1232388-Party-Quest-Search%26nxid%3D6]here[/url] after someone on the first page suggested I did. I originally just posted it in Fan Creations, but a mod moved it to Suggestions, so I guess I'm suggesting they add it now... Really I just made it for fun, but if they actually added it to the game that would be pretty awesome.
before i read the comment i thought this was real and i was like "OMG THIS IS SO USEFUL!" please submit this to nexon, they need your help

@TheAmens Well that's even more disappointing then, because I'm sure this has to have come up before.
@Bustermode1 Why thank you!
@LightCaress I agree! I think the main response is "we should have this already", which we should.
@FruityCake Glad someone thought so, I tried to make it in the style of some KMS update notes I saw a while back! To be honest one of the reasons I made this was because Nett's Pyramid is one of my favourite PQs (as some might have guessed), but finding a party is almost impossible. The "cross world party quests" thing being pretty poor was a bit of a kick in the pants for me, but not as much as finding out that KMS has 5 difficulties for Nett's while we only have 3. They have difficulties for levels ranging 30~49, 50~69, 70~89, 90~119 and 120+, while we had 60-89 and 90-109 which was inexplicably changed to 80-89 and 90-109 recently... To be fair having more difficulties probably still doesn't help finding a party, but I just don't understand why they think anyone would ever bother PQing the way the system is at the moment, it's atrocious in my opinion.
@GottStatue Thank you!
@Cloudshadowv If I could ever made the game more enjoyable/less frustrating for anyone that's good enough for me!
@ThotsRUs Much appreciated!
@LShadow3 Yay, glad you think so!
@JetlagJag Did you get the reference? I'll high 5 you in half if you did. Also thanks!
He has a radio in his c- I MEAN this is a brill idea! I haven't party quested in years due to lack of people....
@DwerG: Totally!
This is absolutely fantastic. Oh my goodness.
Someone pay this guy.
This is a really good idea!
Wow this picture looked like a legit update.
Really good idea though. Some people, mostly strong classes, these days don't do PQs much because there are better places to grind, and other people don't want to wait for more people to PQ with them. Allowing them to wait for a PQ while doing other things and grinding will be effortless and more efficient.
This would make pqing so much easier!
u sir r a GENIUS!
Funny because KMS has a system almost exactly like this but for bosses. They can easily tweak it to be made for PQs.
Simple matchmaking feature.

[quote=OneLife]what a damn embarrassment that they can't even do something as simple as this[/quote]
It's a shame really, but because I bet there's so many little things I'm sure loads of us could think of that would make good additions to the game.
[quote=Cookiemonster8]This reminds me of League [/quote]
Never played myself, but I've been told that before so I guess it must be! Just too bad Maple is lagging behind.
This reminds me of League
[quote=MrAbyss]Not hating on anything, but this is the same design that every mmorpg is using for dungeons (dungeon finder).
Great work, they should implement this.[/quote]

[quote=VietUA]Nexon should hire more people like you!
But then Hime and Girasol...[/quote]
Well, I looked through it several times before I submitted it, and still managed to misspell "available", not to mention one character is named "HellArrowxi" but the party thing says "HolyArrowxi" So maybe I do secretly work for Nexon and this is in development... Just kidding, I'm just dumb.
[quote=Jazzix]Nexon finally brought mini games which I been spamming on their forum and ticket. Oh I brought the stupid zombie event also could be a coincidence though.
Disapointed how it wasn't in game park hene but oh well.
I suggest you do it on nexon forum also and encourage players to comment on it.[/quote]
I may do sometime, I've actually posted a Party Quest I designed on there before, but the problem is their layout squashes things this size down quite a lot so it makes it hard to read most of it. Thanks though!
[quote=Oragatto]Wow, this is really smart : D[/quote]
Thanks! As said below your comment, though, I guess this is something that's well known to the MMO world.
[quote=yoyotwistap65]Luv it <3[/quote]
Yay!
[quote=Takumurai]Why can't you work for Nexon instead [/quote]
Haha thanks! I've actually designed a few more things like this before that I've not posted (one being a "Quest Creator" system that categorically would never be implemented due to abuse), so I guess for some reason I just like doing it for fun. Go figure.

It's cool, I understand. I posted the idea in a thread a few days ago and someone said there's something similar in LoL (I think). I guess I just don't really play that many online games to know what other people are doing!
@Pereeia Sorry As much as I'd like it to be a part of the game I'd be very surprised if it ever was.
Ah damn it. I was hoping this was real
