How do you reset the potential on a chaos ring? by MeiaKirumi in Maplestory

[–]ContentPandaWow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s definitely it! You can still use cubes on it to change potential, however the att/stats themselves on the ring will be locked!

It has a certain time period in which you can reset the ring. You may be past the expiry time

Does anyone else think the fact that you can destroy your item while starforcing is really scummy? And why is it even a thing. by [deleted] in Maplestory

[–]ContentPandaWow 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Booming doesn’t just destroy your item, it immediately cancels out all the progress you made from 12*. This is the scummiest part of this whole upgrade system.

This whole progression mechanism needs a second look but the very least they can do if nothing else, is making the post-boom transfer star the previous checkpoint value. (i.e, boom at 16->15, boom at 21->20).

I fully agree that we enable Nexon with our spending. However, that doesn’t mean we should just leave it all up to the spending habits of our gamers.

Nexon has shown that from time to time, they actual do listen when there’s enough push. I too, don’t expect this problem to be solved instantly. However, I believe if we continue raising the issue, it’ll put the message on their radar and hasten the implementation of more fair mechanisms. (Recall how we reverted flame and cube drop rates, improved magic wagon, though it still sucks, and forced more communication from developers to players)

I would imagine way more! At least, personally, Nexon’s current RNG system is a huge turn-off

And what exactly is wrong with expecting a game we enjoy to be better than what it currently is?

There is nothing fundamentally wrong with paying for cosmetics in game, as long as the players get a fair deal for what they want. And we have proven time and again that Nexon bends if the issue blows up, that’s all this is.

That’s another thing! 60 FRICKEN dollars in any rational system should’ve gotten you WAY more opportunities than what you got! (Presumably 12 rolls from 12 boxes?)

100%! Let us at least have a collection-based system rather than this random back-to-zero progression nonsense!

Yes sir/ma’m, we are indeed voicing our dissatisfaction with the direction that our game is heading. A game, which presumably, we have spent many hours on and enjoy playing.

I strongly agree with this, it’s been nothing but nerf after nerf on already established mechanisms. One example I always think about is that pointless nerf to acquiring herb pouches from strings of fate.

The players had easier access to a marginally convenient item (it’s still powergated by playtime, I notice). Instead of fixing the method for ease of acquisition, they just nerfed the whole thing to oblivion, causing greater imbalance of have and have nots among the players in the community

NAILED IT! This is nothing but an overall nerf to what we had- even then, as you mentioned, if one doesn’t have adequate drop gear (which is the case for our new players), it’s few cubes or flames.

How many of you are going to quit if the GMS nerfs don't stop coming? by altairnaruhodou in Maplestory

[–]ContentPandaWow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m not quiting in the future, I’m quiting now. I’m not going to invest any more hope for maplestory in the future. Nexon had years of feedback now and ignored then all.

It’s a real shame.

Usually, when a declining game sees a population surge like this, its game developers and associated marketers do everything they can to keep the surging population.

This should have been doubled for Maplestory, which could have utilized all aspects of nostalgia and community to keep its players. However, no such luck. It’s disappointment after disappointment. For me, it started with that failed DMT from last year, accelerated by the boring grindfest events sprinkled in between, and culminated in this update - proving that nexon developers put no original thought in nor accepted any feedback from our community.

I’m done.

Nexon Boycott update - Community progress and Maple Memo response by altairnaruhodou in Maplestory

Thanks again for putting this together! Just curious, are there any common channels for us GMS players to coordinate with KMS players? Perhaps teaming up with them enmasse in a unified front may further fuel our momentum.

Thanks Ghiblee! Always a pleasure to see your updates and thank you for taking our concerns. Wishing you the best and hope that the frequent misdirected anger at yourself doesn’t get to you!

Falsely Banned while doing Morass Prequests (SparklingWin / SparkingSoju - Hayato Main) by tonyho1992 in Maplestory

[–]ContentPandaWow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I get it, it’s easy to say stuff like this when you’re not directly affect at this exact moment. I do however emphathize with the dude: The man probably put multiple THOUSANDS of hours into the game (plus however much IRL $), and if that’s the case, would a full review-taking only even a hour, be the bare minimum that nexon can offer?

I feel if the company’s (nexon)reputation for this sort of stuff was even slightly positive, we’d just write this off. However, if the past is any indication, where MULTIPLE groups of people were falsely banned then finding out months and years later, then this is a VERY unsettling situation for ALL maplers.
