Eventually, Nexon has to be open about upcoming fixes

As you should all know, this update is plagued with various serious issues which seem to require clientside updates to fix. Nexon seems to be planning v169 purely to fix these issues, but we do not know what is actually being addressed until the patch actually comes. This means they can easily miss serious issues, due to the immense distance between the community and the developers in control of these fixes. It would be comforting not just to the players but to the developers, because we would actually be able to get the worst bugs put at priority for notice, instead of hoping they have been noticed.

Summary: Make a new version of [url=http://maplestory.nexon.net/community#%2Fshowthread.php%3F1467863-Known-Issues-List-%28Updated-10-28-15%29%26nxid%3D6]Known Issues List[/url] that actually lists what is going to be fixed next patch. They can keep exploits a secret, but things like fixing Gollux would be a relief to hear.

-Princess No is glitched, you don't get rewards. It's been months after me and several friends sent tickets about this, and of course, it's still not fixed.
- The changing chanel is bugged, it is very annoying to need to repeat again and i again to actually go into that channel
-Buddy list chat is still buged

@silverfox: What disappoints me is they'll say they are working on bugs in general, even mark bugs for Known, but they wait until soon before maintenance to reveal what they are actually addressing. We find out a bunch of issues were missed, but they are too far along to add them to fixes at that point. They end up saying "Bugs are still being fixed," but next maintenance they are still unaddressed.

If we knew specifically what they were working on, we'd know which bugs to bring to their attention. I feel like half the reason bugs go unaddressed is they assume we're all complaining about issues they are already working on. We wouldn't do that if they told us they were actively working on it. They'd be able to listen to us if they knew which was most valid.

This really come back to my suggestion several months ago: [url=http://maplestory.nexon.net/community#%2Fshowthread.php%3F1486245]Open a JIRA branch of Nexon.net so users can submit bugs in a proper forum, whereas users can vote for attention instead of strategic bumping of topics[/url].

@silverfoxr: the thing is we have been patient for quite too long and the bugs keep getting worse

Do you expect them to simply wave a magic wand and make all the problems disappear?

They'll be fixed in time. Try that whole "being patient" thing people around here don't do.

@powerbomb: Its only in reboot server. If you done research this could have easily been found. At least 3 different threads on basil and 2 different threads on Nexon forums has been made about it. The bug is just that they reset each day and you need to relog on each character each time you log on for the day.

@syncrinity: Link skill bug? What's that? I haven't seen any issues regarding it.

Remember how long Root Abyss was closed? Imagine that happening to Gollux. Nexon has little to no transparency or accuracy about almost anything.

@sadvirgin: And the problem is, even with the uproar, they don't address bugs. Their policy is "We'll reveal fixes as they are being applied," even though this means if they missed issues they won't be addressed for days at least since they can't bring it down again. If we know WHAT they're about to fix, we can tell them what else needs fixing and they can add that to the list of things to fix IN THAT UPDATE.

I know Nexon has never been this proactive, and they never will be, but I have to vent this concern.

I want the link skill bug to be fixed. That's all I want T_T

Nexon only fixes things when there's a massive uproar. Everything else is swept under the rug or added to an infinite to-do-list that will never be tackled.

@endurance: [url=http://maplestory.nexon.net/community#%2Fshowthread.php%3F1399130]Familiars that change the player's look still don't work.[/url] (I know this isn't extremely important, but for instance last year I went to a GM Meetup and used Von Leon Transform + Crimson Familiar. Giant, Red Von Leon was so much fun. I miss doing stuff like that.)

- random crash after character screen
- memory leak on crowded maps that cause you to d/c
- disconnected by gmmaplepolice for the HACK session
- mining and herbalism crops bugged and often stops while clicking on them
- certain channels are so laggy its not playable
- some familiars are bugged
- wedding rings still don't have their effects, they should have been added back in the patch where you toggle totems on and off
