'We're Listening' Poll

Just to quote for people who haven't seen this yet;

You said you want this update soon. You got it!
You said you want to call this update "Big Bang." You got it!
Now tell us what improvements to the game you want from the Big Bang update!
Take this super-simple poll by October 20. We're all ears!

http://maplestory.nexon.net/News/Events.aspx?boardNo=200&contentNo=009hj&pageIndex=1

Now, why doesn't it surprise me that 51% of people want faster levelling?
...
So what did you vote for? I voted for job rebalancing.

Edit; Whoops, forgot to make this a poll. Oh well, too many options anyway.

I really think it was stupid that the 'other' category did not have a higher percentage. Especially with the amount of maplers who complain that maple is fail, well I guess they missed one of their chances to make their voices heard. Faster leveling really? That is really stupid IMO, whats the point if you start playing a game and it finishes in like 2 weeks,nothing. At least the other options like the quest variety, and more exp from quests, made it look like the game would be more enjoyable, but once again, hear hear to the selfish mediocre noobs who can't level in a 2d side scrolling button tapping game...

EDIT: And why vote for one option when you can just choose other, and say I want this, this and this, plus this and that? This is why I wonder sometimes about the population of maple...

If I wanted faster leveling I'd merch a bit and get better equips, but for the 90% of the time I'm on MS and not grinding I'd much rather be able do other things than PYPQ and henehoar

[quote=B00imaCLERIC]Nexon clearly stated that there are some content in big bang that will not come to gMS due to some issues.
What makes me wonder is how they're going to do it with CWK and the new exp formula o.o[/quote]

Oh, never caught that. That sucks. I hope it's just some content I could care less about then. CWK's just one other place, so I doubt it could be [i]that[/i] hard to implement the updates with it.

[quote=AlphaTrion]Sadly... the most voted option was faster lvling... For god's sake, they are gonna recalibrate the exp curve, and you want to lvl faster? Even with 2 exp cards, and family system?... No sean...ya?[/quote]

Anyone who actually voted for one of them are just noobs (for the most part) and haven't heard about this before (the Big Bang)

OT: I selected other and said something witty about how I want emergency patches and server checks as well as extended patch times and unbearable lag, I then proceeded to say "but I already know that all that is already gonna happen, so I'd appreciate more Explorer content, and if you can, a lower penalty for dieing"

I put, not completely destroying my class; Not mages, but couldn't cl hit more targets (i mean really, for a 3 hit aoe attack its hits 100, then 90 then 80k on average, while in that time a BM now hits 50k with hurricane*8*.75s=300k. Better damage 1v1 than our aoe with max targets, really nexon? )

Same... i gave a reason for each thing listed... such as a a PQ for higher levels that give some good experience for the level... quests that give a better amount of exp for the level that is required (lets face it some lvl 30 quests give more exp than most lvl 80) and stuff like that oh yeah and 1024x768 resolution

[quote=opoisgod]Nexon is clearly NOT listening.
i think that ALL poll answers are gonna released
the poll is worthless, the votes dont matter and i can prove the poll from before is also worthless:
in the poll messege nexon titled it as "the rebirth of maplestory" and stated that KMS named it big bang.
what they did there is simply be the first to influence your desicion, making sure the competition will primly be between rebirth and big bang, and most users are now aware of whats happening in KMS and are already influenced, so big bang won.
conclusion: polls = worthless and delays.[/quote]
Hilarious.
The reason they had a poll for different names was to see whether or not people LIKED the name Big Bang. And obviously, people do.
As for the current poll, it's not just about "what should we give you in Big Bang even though you're getting everything anyway", it's about the main reason players want the game changed.
And how exactly does having a poll make things delayed? Nexon is releasing the Big Bang patch no matter what - everyone knows that - so what is a poll taking players opinions going to do about it? Nothing. So get the idea out of your head that updating a website has anything to do with how quickly GMS gets new content.

i voted for faster leveling. why? i was gonna vote for job rebalancings, but they're just gonna do the same as they did in KMS ._. as other people said, they'll just copy-paste it, and i have all what i wanna know in the Big Bang Guide section, so it'd be a waste of vote...

i actually think they put the options they are already doing ._.

Nexon is clearly NOT listening.
i think that ALL poll answers are gonna released:
faster lvling - exp curve reduction
faster lvling via quests - they changed most of the quests
new resolution - added that
more content - gonna be resistance
more PQs - van leon and im guessing also the ghost ship PQ were missing
job skills rebalancing - already did that in KMS
decrease penalty for dying - no idea about that, how about people should just drink potions instead?
faster travel - no idea what this one. this is the only tough cookie i have.
everything else is already released in KMS.
the poll is worthless, the votes dont matter and i can prove the poll from before is also worthless:
in the poll messege nexon titled it as "the rebirth of maplestory" and stated that KMS named it big bang.

it isnt that we dont realize it, please dont act like you are all knowledgeable. some of us just feign ignorance. I for one, just felt like voting anyways. And plenty of people know that KMS got these same updates, and you are one of many people to become egotistical about it.

Really... I rather give a dam about Big Bang if I can't play this game.

[b]EDIT:[/b]
Here is my report.
http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/5619/myvote.png

Also when I saw the results after voting... I can establish this.
51% of Maplers are either noobs/idiots (voting faster exp)
15% of Maplers are smart (for voting other)
The rest... are ... dumb (not like the 51%) because they should have used there brains and voted other and said "all of the above"
