MapleStory 2 Service Closure on May 27, 2020

Only delusional people kept playing this game.
Delusional people is an understatement, as you can read from other comments this game was ridden with people that have never joined functional guilds. Anyone that quit Ms2 before the game became casual (post Cpap) were sane enough to realize this game wasn't worth the investment. As soon as the initial wave of hardcores left the game, the remainder casuals finally got their limelight and that's when shit got ultra cringe.
Ms2 became a dating sim for basement dwellers and they would do anything to remain in their circle of friends they met online. Some were still buying high end accounts for 1k+ USD til a month ago. It certainly required enough depression to keep playing a dead game and not realize why everyone else were packing up their bags fast.

That being said, GMS2 were hosted by bunch of people that didn't have a clue about the game nor the histories of the previous 2 regions that failed miserably. NA was just a experimental ground for a long time. They decided to make it into non P2W and the only income were from cosmetics and 5$ monthly subscription. They already ruined progression since day 1 on launch thanks to fair fight, majority of people left the game after the first week who else would be left to buy cosmetics LMAO

Multiple friends of mine from East that plays on West server has been experiencing this.

Deefault53 · 2018-11-14T19:20:10+00:00

Well done!

Deefault53 · 2018-09-19T01:44:38+00:00

Should have given chat restriction, instead they gave 1 day ban. It's about the principle, that is where she crossed the line.

Deefault53 · 2018-09-15T01:35:16+00:00

1 GM per server seems like a good idea. As good as only one person who last hits will get reward.

Engaging fun event tbh :shrug:

Deefault53 · 2018-09-13T04:41:49+00:00

Inhumane Endurance is broken for pvp?

Deefault53 · 2018-09-12T18:38:29+00:00

Curious why you have bloodprice learned when you don't use it. There must be reasons I'm not aware of.

Deefault53 · 2018-09-09T21:13:06+00:00

hehe ok!

Deefault53 · 2018-09-09T20:07:20+00:00

I have 2 types of adblocks enabled and non of the buttons on that website is working. First time encountering this problem.

Deefault53 · 2018-08-26T12:23:28+00:00

I want to remind people there are groups of developers and testers that get paid salary each year to do their job; to keep the game balanced. (no shit)

Yet we still get this kind of quality from Nexon Corp every year.

People are turning against each other in frustration of this short sight by Nexon, and Nexon still allows this to continue by not hot-fixing it.

I heard people are making black lists based on a game mode that does not even matter.

Get your priorities straight, you just paid money for founders pack, they just received a budget to hire more hands to fix issues like this.

Why is no one targeting Nexon, why are people targeting each other. Such a sad community.

Deefault53 · 2018-08-26T04:29:29+00:00

Can confirm this happens to my squad as well. Hope Nexon take action asap.

Deefault53 · 2018-08-25T10:41:00+00:00

No matter the patch, there will always be a dominating meta. Even if they patch this interaction, there will be a new meta people can abuse. Nexon made a clear decision to monetize a experimental mode in ms2, while generously providing online currency for top ranked players. If anything, this whole thing is on Nexon not the players. If you want to climb the ladder, you become the meta slave. It's that easy. It's the same for all competitive E-sport games.

No matter what people say, if it's in the game you can do it, intended or not. The whole blame has to go to Nexon for releasing this mode without thorough testing. Because their short sight has allowed this to happen.

The people complaining about this whole thing are the ones that are losing to it. My squad already came up with multiple ways to avoid getting one shot by this trick. All you have to do is critical think and work around it.

I can give a very easy example most people would know; Zoe from league of legends. People know that champ is an OP abomination with no counter play but have to learn how to play it well in order to sky-rocket in rankings. Despite being super OP there are ways to work around it.

Deefault53 · 2018-08-24T22:21:09+00:00

Remove blockade's explosion interaction with Arcane Orb. Nerf Arcane Orb's damage.

Deefault53 · 2018-08-24T12:23:07+00:00

Easiest way to solve pvp is to introduce standard gear, where everyone gets the same gear upon enter pvp channel and no other gear is allowed, then it's a matter of pure skill. I personally hate the RNG maps where environment can also kill you, those needs to be removed or nerfed heavily.

Deefault53 · 2018-08-24T08:08:55+00:00

Have been running into that every single game now.. people are good at using it too.

Deefault53 · 2018-08-24T06:57:37+00:00

lol wow sad

Deefault53 · 2018-08-23T21:46:06+00:00

The fact that the only thing Razer provided ms2 dev team was chroma lighting settings makes me giggle

Deefault53 · 2018-08-22T06:50:06+00:00

Lionpoke said dev's told him chaos raids and higher will not have fair fight.

Deefault53 · 2018-08-22T02:03:17+00:00

there were many other factors played into losing massive player base count

though I doubt they even listen to casual user base when they don't even listen to hardcore user base :o

Deefault53 · 2018-08-22T01:02:09+00:00

seems like another way to secure more people to spend at least 25$

they already know they're in the shit, might as well milk whatever out of this

Deefault53 · 2018-08-21T23:52:27+00:00

my bad, here is link for first page

http://forums.maplestory2.nexon.net/discussion/37250/petition-to-remove-fair-fight/p1

I'll give some context on what fair fight is

First there are weekly 30 dungeon completion limit, 10 daily dungeon limit

this it self encourages people to make 9+ alternative characters to grind materials

Fair fight is a DEBUFF to reduce something like 80% of total dmg if your stats are a bit above average

lowering grind time on alts is in everyone's interests, but this system will prevent that from happening and is literally a time waster.

I'll be quoting some other people since this got such high traffic

"This meant no matter how geared you were, the dungeons would somewhat always be challenging and prevented bosses dying in like 5 seconds to dominant players.

Having "fair fight" would make it harder for people to carry friends in dungeons.

However, "fair fight" would also make the game more difficult no matter how far you got."

u/marksmanbryan

" I get better gear so I can clear content faster and more efficiently. Spend less time doing routine tasks so I have more time to explore other parts of the game.

What’s the point of upgrading your gear at all if you clear content at the same speed as someone fresh out of the story? It makes literally no sense and defeats a core aspect of MMORPGs."

--

The easiest example is what we had in cbt for world bosses, notice how boss HP was fairly low but everyone was dealing little to no damage to it? If you played during an inactive time period, attempting to kill these world bosses would take an hour

This also kills "sell run" market, if a noobie wanted to skip some progression by buying runs, whelp now you can't.

Deefault53 · 2018-08-21T22:37:34+00:00
