Additional Options Thoughts

http://maplestory.nexon.net/community#%2Fshowthread.php%3F1465916-Your-Thoughts-on-Additional-Options%2Fpage5%26nxid%3D6

Hello!

MLC Daxterbeer here and I was wondering what you guys think of Flames of Rebirth. I understand there are unfunded players, godly players and many upgrade systems including Nebulites. Additional Options, but is anyone interested in this? The link above is the link to the actual poll and forum since making a new poll would be confusing. I understand we have Nebulites, but we would work on that before we try releasing another system. But in the meantime, I would like to hear you opinions!

So far, players are upset about the scissors issue, but the council could discuss removing the burden. The main idea behind Additional Options is to allow players to make stronger items as long they can kill simple bosses and gear up from that boss to the next boss and so forth.

[quote=defensenub]stronger items but at what nx cost? focus on changing old things instead of breaking the game bit by bit.[/quote]

Flames comes from bosses and from crafting like Meister and Master Craftsmen Cubes. They are also craftable if you are a Meister Accessory Maker. We should avoid placing them in Gach.

I am redoing the survey since this one is more portable and results are hidden, so please do not vote on the Nexon Poll because it would not be counted.

We have someone looking into Nebulites and we are trying to fix them. Fusing and removal of old nebs requires NX and finding even a Nebulite is hard. I do agree on revamping Nebulites before ever adding flames. When I was talking about adding Flames, it would be waaay after we fine tune other things such as potential, nebulites, and bonus pots. I mean, who doesn't want free stats bonuses? I am not bringing this up to rush their arrival if we ever plan on getting them in. I just hope to find something to satisfy the low funded players, but I can see you guys want some current issues as the current Nebulites, glitches and such. If the Nebulite revamp is a success and then we add flames, we would have a lot stronger characters at low levels. In the meantime, we can hope for a better Nebulite revamp.

Scissor count from additional options were removed ages ago, now you dont need to use scissors anymore on items with additional options(other than the items that already require scissors, like SoK or PSoK) and neither there is a limit on how much times can an item with additional options be traded.

So, that is no longer a downside.

Negative.

I'm all in favor as long as it doesn't require me to rescroll a weapon
I literally finished scrolling and starring my gun last week (and it took ages to scroll without nx!)

[quote=obec]Here's a thought, feel free to flame me if you wish. Since it seems most players are rejecting nebulites since they're "pay2win" items, why not just get rid of the NX requirement to fuse nebs? Nebs are easily accessible enough through neb boxes, and I don't have too much trouble fusing 2 c nebs into a random b neb every now and then. Rather than adding something new to the game, you could just fix what's already broken. Just my opinion...[/quote]

How you thought you'd receive flame for something everyone wants is beyond me, so instead i thank you

OP: Yea, a big No-no to the new system. Implementing new things constantly doesnt necessarily bring people back. [Isnt that why MLC was created? To enable players to voice opinions? or has the power gone through your heads like Nexon?]

[quote=obec]You can get up to B rank nebulites from neb boxes which drop from almost every mob in the game. The only avenue to getting A rank nebs is to use NX (whether on Gachapon, Marvel Machine or Fusing Nebs) currently, so if we proposed removing the need to use NX for fusing nebs for example, these higher rank nebs would become more accessible to a wider range of players.[/quote]

Instead of throwing 1000 ideas which are mainly useless, been spreading around like diseases recently, how about fixing existing contents firsy.

As this person said, first step should be removing the need for nx for fusing nebs. Sure keep the nx option available for those who wish to pay, but allow a way to make or get the fusion tickets through in game methods.

Also released S rank nebs.

Additional Options were not added by GMS because we had the neb options .Lets fix that instead.

Btw dont talk like a politician, cut out nonsense like, I understand <insert thing> but I would like you guys to voice your opinion, none of that bs politician talk. Talk like how you would normally talk like.

[quote=luizevilx]wtf lmao nebs arent even a big / remarkable p2w factor in the game. how are ppl that dumb?

I do agree that nebs need a revamp[/quote]

If you ignore the fact that dupers got heaps of the wanted A nebs in the market, there would be close to no (only Maple points will make it non p2w) supply for A nebs without NX.
So yes, A nebs are pretty much p2w.

Agreed. Before we introduce new systems why not fix old ones beforehand?
