Thread 725524889

What is /v/ looking forward to most in Maplestory Classic?

For me it's the new areas designed with oldschool in mind.

considering they're adding new areas it's safe to assume we will get classic exclusive classes
what kind of classes you guys want? obviously not including the ones that are in current maple

>>725524997
Resistance classes.

Maybe one of my new frens will be a qt azn gf

>>725525068
The only one I can see fitting into the Classic aesthetic is Battle Mage. Wild Hunter, Mechanic, and Demon Slayer are too modern in their foundations. Battle Mage is gimmicky but it's extremely simple as a concept and with a little tweaking can fit right at home with the original classes.

what went so wrong?????!??????

I just want to throw shuriken and kunai again

>>725525147
Evan and Aran were in pre-BB so being gimmicky isn't a reason.

Resistance were at least classes (except Demon Slayer) so I don't see why they couldn't be adapted to better fit the gameplay of old Maplestory.

I also wouldn't mind 5th job at some point, but instead of that weird complicated matrix nonsense, it could just be an extra tab in the skill menu. Something else to work towards in late game instead of the old cycle.

>>725525348
Evan and Aran are characters, not classes. I don't want that shit in my classic.

what went so right??????

Should Pirate PQ be in Classic?

>>725525348
>Evan and Aran were in pre-BB
They also weren't mounted fighters like Wild Hunter and Mechanic. The only thing comparable is Corsair's Battleship, and even that was heavily restrictive.

>>725525476
Wonder how many years it will take so this kind of videos don't destroy all the small details after a few second, like her mole blending with the eye, or the stars on her eyes, what did you used for that?

>>725525749
it's wan2.2, and stuff like that can be corrected if you provision details in the text proompt

>>725525728
I don't like it when a PQ comes out that completely eclipses another one. I hated CPQ's existence because now there was zero reason to do LPQ (unless you wanted the glasses). Pirate PQ eats up way too much real estate with its massive 55-100, and it was so good that anything within that level range was a waste of time by comparison. Most notable were OPQ (unless you glitched it) and R&JPQ.
It's not a bad PQ, but I think it could use some work.

>>725525476
>>725525974
i don't get grok lewds
their animation is too stiffy and unnatural (for now)
why not just use sd

>>725525728
All PQs should be in classic.
Even nuMaple PQs should be in classic. They all got abandoned in nuMaple anyway so might as well port them over.

>>725525974
I want to see her fart.

>>725526048
You say this like the level requirements can't be easily adjusted.
In 2012, R&J PQ became the meta for like 50 levels.
Also, most ppl did the broken LMPQ from 51-70 back in the day, but that shit was the most boring PQ by far.

>>725526147
unfortunately she had a script about farting but it got removed with the remaster

>>725526069
That isn't "grok".
>why not just use sd
Because wan is far superior for local video gen.

>>725526264
How good of a graphics card do you need for that wan junk? Bleeding edge SLI arrays?

>>725526193
>In 2012, R&J PQ became the meta for like 50 levels.
I am all too aware of this. I played during that time and experienced this myself.
>Also, most ppl did the broken LMPQ from 51-70 back in the day
I knew of this too, but I never did it because as you said it's fucking boring.

And yes, I'm aware PQs can be tweaked in terms of EXP and level requirements. I was just pointing out how prominent it was back in the day and I hope this mistake isn't repeated. If EXP is the only reward, there will always be a top dog. But if there's alternate rewards such as a chance at rare or exclusive items (i.e. specific scrolls from KPQ or Broken Glasses from LPQ), then the various PQs will always retain their audiences.

>>725526932
I'll at least read up on it, whether or not my gpu can handle it. Thanks.

I hope they make cpq2 better cause holy shit it sucked

>>725527075
the simple way to fix cpq is to implement matchmaking so cucks can't just trade wins and you're forced to compete.
i remember early numaple had a different kind of cpq that activated via bubble over character head, and created huge teams for some ludi map followed by one big KS war. shit was cash

>>725526763
Nah in mmos the female cosmetics always have been way too good in comparison, atleast imo. I do tell everyone who would ask that I'm an old man as I have no intention nor desire to larp. I just like the cute cosmetics in old maple and spend hundreds on em.
>>725526859
I'm very excited and hope official release comes as early as possible. This game ticks every box for what I enjoy more or less.
It also has some very good music that always makes me feel nostalgic.

Should PQs be revamped? Like changed from how they were in the old days?

Do we need the same combination puzzles for KPQ? Is it time to engineer some more interesting team-based puzzles?

will they bring it back
I miss it so much

>>725527454
It would be nice to see PQs with new mechanics but I'll be happy if they just make the rewards worthwhile and balance out the exp rates.

>>725524889 (OP)
Just go to the general on /vg/ man. This doesn't need to be a thread every single day.

>>725528016
yes it does

on a scale of 1-10, how important is it that the developers make the game more lewd?

Should Cygnus knights be in classic?

>>725528426
I'll only accept it if it's tasteful lewd in line with the old maple artstyle. I don't want anything that looks like ms2 or numaple.

>>725528460
Hell no. Pirates is the end.

>>725528460
I forgot if they were preBB or not. I know Resistance isn't.

>>725529057
Cygnus Knights, Aran, Evan, and Dual Blade were all released before Big Bang.
However, Cygnus Knights' inclusion soured the watering hole by rigging Maplestory with a narrative that wasn't previous there (nor was it needed) along with being the first signs of true content bloat as they were just Explorers with some additional bells and whistles (and mandatory quests). Aran and Evan only added more fuel to the fire in the narrative department. Dual Blade is the only somewhat decent addition since it (originally) didn't rely on the Black Mage plot, but they get a bad reputation with classic fans due to them being released alongside Potentials which utterly destroyed any semblance of game balance as a whole.

when us ut iout?

>>725529191
I could have sworn the black mage plot line was there before any of them was added but it was never really expanded on much.

>>725524889 (OP)
>Maplestory Classic

I thought the point was it was Classic Maplestory...

>>725529251
See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMCaGr7bEA8

>>725529632
can you just fucking tell me a date

>>725529524
If it did, it wasn't shoved in your face like it was post-Cygnus. You do quests at your own pace, if any at all. That was part of the draw. Even the fucking website back then said it's YOUR story. Adding a narrative that every single class/character builds towards completely goes against that.
>>725529574
It's Classic+. It's essentially a faithful remake with new content. If it was just a dolled up old version it'd be no better than little jimmy's very own v83 Private Server.

>>725524889 (OP)
The european/bonger who keeps making this threads truly is Nexon's strongest soldier. That being said you make these before I go to bed, stop that. Anyway for me I'm most looking forward to playing on day one right on launch and seeing Lith Harbor full of noobs again. There's a lot I'm excited about but the first day of a "classic" MMO can only be experienced once.

>>725529574
You thought wrong.
If you want a pure vanilla experience, you already have plenty of options. Just go and play Legends of something.
Expanding the world is important because part of the true classic experience was rolling content updates and not just the same shit on an endless loop.

The important thing to keep the same is the oldschool design philosophy. There is nothing wrong with new content so long as it feels old.

>>725529667
>It's Classic+
Oh, I'm not interested anymore then. Thanks for the heads up.

>>725529728
Good riddance.

>>725529758
My thoughts exactly. Classic with new content is just the current game.

>>725529728
You will not be missed.

>>725529659
we don't have one sadly, the only thing we know is there's gonna be a closed online test early next year, so a couple months out at least and no sign ups yet

>>725529803
I am very happy the developers aren't listening to idiots like you :)

>>725529812
ughhh

>>725529803
One less faggot in my maps then. Please fuck off now.

>>725529817
>>725529804
>>725529856
Why are you all so upset? :)

>>725529574
Old maple was fucking dogshit you just don't remember the bad parts because of nostalgia and minmaxing wasn't widespread then.

>>725524889 (OP)
Not even coming out for at minimum 5 months.

>>725529890
upset over what?
again, i'm glad the developers are not listening to tards like you and retreading the same ground as private servers

>>725529925
I liked it. I started to dislike the game after they added pirates. Can't remember why.

>>725530039
There are private servers for Maplestory?

>>725529524
Black mage existed, in the same sense that an evil spirit deep in the el nath mines existed before zakum released. The extra classes made it clear that black mage was going to be a 'thing' and not an area boss.

Wait, are people really disappointed it's not going to be a 1/1 recreation of old Maplestory?

I played Royals with /v/ in 2015 and it was a fun nostalgia trip, but holy shit did the game get boring after level 120. I remember everyone started to quit around this point, and it was hardly a surprise because there was nothing to do.

You can't live off nostalgic novelty forever, and the new dev team get this.

>>725529667
>Adding
I get that but I feel it's more that it was expanded on and given more focus and not just pulled out of no where. I recall Temple of Time being the way it is because of the black mage. You are right about the character classes like Aran and Evan being way more personal story focused than the Explorer classes and the Cygnus Knights were as well.

>>725530217
>Wait, are people really disappointed it's not going to be a 1/1 recreation of old Maplestory?
Yes. I thought that's what "Classic" implied. If I wanted new content from them, I'd play current Maple.

>>725530206
A lot of the quests that most people didn't do mentioned him often. He was always the big bad but it was more like one we wouldn't personally engage with.

>>725530332
then go and play MapleLegends with their strict adherence to oldschool gameplay, including HP washing and nothing to do past level 120.

We've all been there and done that shit, which is why we recognize the importance of freshening up the experience.

>>725530312
>I recall Temple of Time being the way it is because of the black mage.
Temple of Time was released after Cygnus Knights.

>>725530217
There are some who would want an exact 1:1 recreation or atleast with the tiniest changes. However I'd guess majority would rather have more extensive changes and it's already going to be different and how much are they going to change going forward aswell is left to see. Hopefully they don't drop the ball too hard with this and polling system similar to OSRS would have it's positives and negatives, but not sure if they are going that route.
The game is already looking like a custom version of classic with the idea revolving around the core gameplay style of old maple, but revamped to get more interest in it.
There is nothing wrong if someone is upset or dissapointed it isn't a 1:1 copy, but that is how it is and they aren't going that route.
>>725530332
Classic isn't the best term since it gives some people the idea it is indeed a 1:1 copy. In the last info panel they placed their version in the middle between old and modern. Also saying it's more suitable to call it a "remake", but still I agree just calling it "classic" can be misleading.

Speaking of the Black Mage and story based stuff, should they introduce the Crusade/Arkarium questline to Classic?

>>725530413
Pink Bean's fight takes place there though and I thought he was out before them.

>>725530408
Never heard of it before. Thanks.

>>725530459
I don't think so

>>725530481
Cygnus Knights were added in mid-2009. Temple of Time was added a few months later.

>>725530440
I'm still not seeing why these 1:1 people don't just play a private server that has gameplay parity with an older version. Like don't wait for Classic, you have what you want available right now.

As someone who has played all kinds of private servers over the past 10 years, I can clearly see old maplestory in it's vanilla state simply isn't a worthwhile way to spend my time in the year 2025. It's a no-brainer that they need to adapt to the times.

>>725530603
What's the number 1 issue that classic has that you think modern maple fixes?

>>725530661
Why are autistic ppl like you always stuck in this binary mindset? Just because I'm saying vanilla old maplestory isn't good enough doesn't mean I'm advocating for modern maplestory.

>>725530728
>Dodges the question
What are you afraid of? I'm just asking you to explain what you meant.

>>725530603
It is just a bit hard due to the lack of information and vague statements from the team. There are plenty of people who don't follow what announcements have been made and where the information comes from or even feel like searching for that. I think a lot of people would also prefer to play on the official server, but it is indeed true that you can play the true classic experience right now with servers that have been up for quite a while atleast. I think the issue is just misleading name of "classic" as I doubt they could really come up with a better name and I can understand why some people are left dissapointed when they hear it isn't classic as in 1:1.

I've played quite a lot of private servers aswell and I do agree that the original classic without changes is simply not going to make it on the current day and markets. Majority of people in every single game are casuals to the point they would hit a hardwall at like level 43 and that's it. With the lack of content and the same balance issues from the original version I really doubt the game would succeed at all.

>>725530603
Every game will have those vocal, autistic purists who need everything exactly like how their childhood memories were, and these people are genuinely offended that Nexon has the gall to update something they grew up playing.
After the first couple years, the game started to struggle heavily with content bloat and balancing issues. 90% of the maps were outdated and worthless because a handful of maps dominated the scene. The game started to become heavily minmaxed and it was stupidly easy to do. HP Washing was a disgusting practice no matter how you approach it. The Leeching meta was rampant. Magicians dominated everything that wasn't a boss run, and in boss runs if you weren't a Dark Knight, Bishop, or Night Lord, you were essentially worthless. Archers and Pirates as a whole were ass to play for a number of reasons. Paladin was a fucking joke. The INT stat was hilariously busted. I could go on.
Changes NEEDED to be made to make the game more enjoyable overall (which is what Big Bang set out to do, and while it succeeded it brought along its own problems), and the classic purists don't like that.

>>725530802
your question was disingenuous from the beginning and demonstrates you are both unintelligent and autistic.
I couldn't give two craps about modern maplestory.
I'm playing Classic because it will be a fresh take on the old Maplestory experience.
i know it's difficult for your binary autistic mind to grasp, but adding a new area doesn't mean it's literally modern maplestory.

>>725530332
i get the instinct but this really is a "you don't know what you want" situation. classic era wow is stagnant, people got their hit of nostalgia and now it's pretty much dead. contrast with osrs which embraced making new content in the spirit of 2007 era runescape (most importantly, polling users on what they want to see) and it's one of the most popular mmos on the market

>>725530938
>your question was disingenuous
No it wasn't, retard. You're just pretending it was because you don't want to answer me.
You said
>It's a no-brainer that they need to adapt to the times.
I'm asking you what "modern adaptations" they need to make to improve classic in a modern way, in your opinion.

Why does this scare you so much? Why even use a forum if you're too scared to reply to people.

>>725531037
No, I know exactly what I want.
Thanks for checking tho.

This is the same autistic retard from yesterday's thread: >>725531043
just ignore it, this sad loser will spend his entire day engaging in pointless back and forth.

>>725530531
Ah, that's pretty close together. I know Pink Bean was around long before being a boss.

>>725531183
I wasn't online yesterday.
If you think you can prove otherwise, please go ahead, otherwise this is pure copium you are huffing.

>>725531083
if you did, then you would have already jumped on one of the four private servers that are just normal maplestory instead of clicking every one of these threads to cry about this game.

>>725531239
Everything has already been explained to you multiple times by multiple anons. Your high-functioning autism inhibits you from understanding anything no matter how clearly it's explained.

You can keep shitting up the thread all you like, but at the end of the day we're very happy a boring autistic retard like you isn't playing.

>>725531291
I learned about the private server about 20 minutes ago.
Gonna try it on the weekend.
>>725530495

>>725531316
You still haven't answered my one and only question.
>I'm asking you what "modern adaptations" they need to make to improve classic in a modern way, in your opinion.
Why are you afraid of telling me what your opinion is? Autists are so weird.

Does this game have a pet class for classic?

>>725531336
if you really wanted to play maplestory one to one exactly as it was circa, say, 2007, you would have already known about them. anyway enjoy them for the short nostalgia hit, this dumbass game is so far out it won't even be released by the time you get bored of playing on a private server

>>725531464
>if you really wanted to play maplestory one to one exactly as it was circa, say, 2007, you would have already known about them
Huh? Why would I?
I saw this thread about "classic" maplestory, realised it's not what I wanted, and now I'm playing what I wanted on the weekend.
Why does this seem to hurt your feelings?

/v/ Royals reporting in

>>725531383
nta and one anon already mentioned few core issues. I think the main issue is the brutally slow leveling will filter out the majority of players as the main audience from what I would guess, is 25+ adults with limited free time. It is a hard sell to get these people to continue playing if they can afford to play like 30min-2h every day if even that and how fast the original leveling cliff hits where a single level which is actually visible progress as just seeing experience bar go up by 5% isn't exactly "visible progress" for most people.
This is of course just guess work, but I do believe the classic experience simply wouldn't hold and player retention wouldn't stay nor introducing new players as it's hard to recommend a game where "yeah you grind 1 level for like three days and if you die that's like 4h of progress gone".

Modern games have already adapted years ago to dailies/weeklies and just in general targetting the casual majority to hit visible progress or just in general the feeling they achieved something in the game. The feeling of getting your dailies done, progress for weeklies, battle pass sort of things. Or just quick sessions through matchmaking as any sort of wait time already decreases the limited time most of the audience would have.

Classic has some major issues on top of HP washing being just plain stupid, even if not necessarily mandatory. Class balance was miserably bad and it was very clearly shown from what classes were played or even wanted for a party. Also bringing the issue that we aren't kids who are oblivious to the game mechanics nor knowledge anymore. Everything about the classic has been beaten to the point we know the best spots, classes, how bossing is done, best gear, best skills, classes, leeching, farming spots. Everything. I do not believe all of these things combined would make the game stay afloat and it would experience what happened to OSRS.

>>725531536
i'm not offended mate, it's just a bit daft to be so stubborn for an exact recreation of old MS to the point where you dismiss out of hand the pros and cons of it, yet you don't actually have any clue at all that there already exists several options for exactly the thing you seem to be dead set on being the optimal classic experience. suppose i overlooked the small contingency of people who insist on the game being stagnant on release and dying after a year yet don't actually have any idea there's already half a dozen private servers that came and went through that exact cycle. maybe you'll come around after getting bored of MR but it doesn't bother me much either way

>>725531782
>dailies/weeklies
You think that makes games better?
Really?

>>725531816
What do you think I'm being stubborn about?

I have 0 hope for this game. Nexon will fuck that up 100%.

>>725531817
No? I said that to make a comparison why the classic experience wouldn't really do well on the modern market of gaming. I already implied that these systems are targetted for the majority of casual audience due to the fast "reward" system that triggers achieving something from a small time investment. Having most games do this sort of thing showcases that it keeps player retention and makes money which is what matters at the end of the day. I am trying to point out how people with limited time tend to play and experience games, especially online and live service ones.

I do not think dailies/weeklies/battle passes/fomo/p2w and so on makes for a "better" experience. Just because I can grind 12h every day and ignore the very slow leveling, grinding and farming doesn't mean this is the way classic should be and how it would succeed and stay relevant. I am in the extreme minority and no matter how much I hate the forementioned things it doesn't matter. I am not the target audience nor can you balance or change anything from my pov. Ideally these things don't exist and you earn everything from the game and it's balanced and fun for most people, that is simply ideal talk and will not happen.

>>725531858
the game being a 1 to 1 recreation, you said it's what you thought classic should be and you don't want new stuff or else you'd just play modern MS. i tried to explain, well, it's a nice idea in theory but in practice every MMO that actually just goes straight 1 to 1 eventually dies because people get bored of playing a small chunk of quests and bosses from a mid-00s MMO over and over for hours on end. you appeared to disagree pretty firmly with that argument which is a level of puritism that's usually reserved for people who already know about or play on private servers (hence my assumption)

>>725531994
It's not actually Nexon developing it. It's Nexon America.
This was Inkwell's idea and something he's been pushing for years, and the Korean branch finally allowed it. This is also the reason Classic World is currently GMS-only, and the Koreans aren't allowed to play.

>>725532047
Is this a modern maple character? Either way, hot.

>>725532110
modern as in Maplestory 2.
Maplestory 2 had some lewd official art.

No, i said it's what I thought it was.

>>725532006
Well I wasn't asking about that, so I'll stop this discussion now so you don't waste anymore time.
Thanks anyway.

>>725532367
Sorry if I didn't directly answer the question(s) and I could also start listing what sort of changes from a more modern point of view they could change in the classic game, but I touched on those from what is seen to be not so desirable gameplay/experience from the old maplestory. I do think it would help not having it being called "classic" as the team and Inkwell himself already showcased and told it is different from the same old classic from the old days. I also think this reinforces the idea behind 1:1 classic not being that marketable as it's not like they don't have other teams behind calculating and speculating from pure money and marketing side how to bring the best profits and what would be received better to release.

>>725532327
it's like definitionally stubborn, you thought a game would be a certain type of way based on its title then when faced with 1) information that it isn't exactly what you thought it would be and 2) an argument as to why it is the way that it is you immediately dropped it. anyways it's sincerely no skin off my nose, nobody is here to sell the game to you so you're free to close the thread and move on. enjoy mapleroyals mate

Post the definition you are using, and where you are getting it from. Because I think you are using the word incorrectly.

>>725532976
i couldn't explain it more clearly. ironically continuing to argue with me when i'm trying to disengage and wish you a wonderful time on your private server is also stubborn. i am also being stubborn by still replying to you. so many examples of stubbornness in this thread today, it's a wonderful aid to use to learn how the word is used in the english language

>>725533068
Thanks for doing that, but just to clarify we're not "arguing" about anything, so settle down. If you think we're having an argument, you are mistaken.

Also that doesn't explain why you think I was being stubborn, or what I was being stubborn about exactly. So thanks for confirming you were using the word incorrectly.

Like I already said, I moved on to something new. By your own definition, that's not stubborness.

>>725533193
you'll notice, too, the first definition being "not changing one's position on something especially in spite of being given arguments or reasons to do so". your position was you thought classic MS would be a one to one recreation and, upon learning it wasn't, decided you didn't want to play it anymore. i gave an argument as to why it's a good thing that it won't be one to one and you ignored it.

if i try to feed a child broccoli and they refuse to do so because they want to eat a chocolate bar instead, then i explain to them that broccoli is good for them yet they continue to refuse to eat it, they are being stubborn whether or not they say "Well you see father, I'm simply moving on from this broccoli to this chocolate bar instead". stubbornness is not exclusively marked by an insistence to disprove the other view as wrong, it can easily be marked as simply refusing to change your own

>>725533405
>especially in spite of being given arguments or reasons to do so
There has been no reasons to do so.

Again, your definition does not fit. And you are stubbornly saying it does.

>>725533608
and now the child, in response to being told broccoli is good for you, is simply denying that i said that or that it's a valid reason to eat broccoli instead of a chocolate bar. i think there's a word for that. anyway i wish the best for your journey in MR compadre, sincerely, it will be a better use of your time than whatever you're doing here

BTW the new map doesn't seem to be some random area they just added, it actually seems to be related to Arcon mentioned by Manji during the bamboo hat quest line.
Too bad 95% of the """""""""og players"""""""" in these threads wouldn't actually know what I'm talking about.

idk what class i wanna play i had a few warriors a decade ago

>>725534968
In an interview Inkwell said they have El Nath and Ludi ready and they could add them if they wanted. However he said they want to see if people actually want them and potentially delaying the addition as they aren't necessarily going to follow the original content release schedule. I would say it is rather likely that El Nath and Ludibrium are coming in the future, just not on release.

>>725535126
Manji was my nigga

Any OGtards want to explain Chun-Ji to me?

Someone in the last thread mentioned that he got namedropped at Maplecon, but I'm pretty sure that was a faggot who got him confused with Manji.

I'll be honest it's coming out too late
If you put it out mid year I could've hopped on after my OSRS crash out but now I've cleared myself of MMO again and I don't see a point of ever playing OG MapleStory again

Even if I encountered everybody I met playing as a kid it'd just me being a pathetic night shift wagie while they're college graduates

Xbowbros, will they treat us right?

I agree that they can't just replicate the old game. I was a level 130 sniper (before the release od 4th classes) and i farmed squid for the 4 hours of my 2x exp coupom and got like 30% exp. Also I was lvl 130 and was oneshot by papulatus and pianus without HB.

>canonically powerful even by modern standards
>new map suggests the possibility of an actual Sharenian area
fvark....
I want HIM as like the end endgame boss of classic (after PB), serving as the Black Mage of classic since we're obviously not getting the big nigga.

Can we all just agree that they should port over post-BB maps, monsters and bosses over to classic to saturate endgame with content? It would be especially cool if they redesigned the maps with the exploration design philosophy.

Numaple had some cool areas, at least cool in theory. I wouldn't mind seeing places like Kritias, Pantheon, Future Henesys, Lionheart Castle make its way into Classic. Newer private servers already do this to help distinguish themselves from Royals and Legends.

Root Abyss would be cool too, especially if they converted it into a proper PQ.

There is no reason why any of these areas can't be adapted and integrated into classic. More content is a good thing, especially endgame content.

based and agreed maple needs multiple build strats for classes with new skills to plan around

sadly it looks like dex and lukless will be standard with how low the requirements are for gear they need to change that

>>725535030
It is the old school worldmap with the red dots, but with the few maps west of Ellinia replaced with the new area.

>>725535767
this isn't some low budget pserver cramming in any content thinking more = good, why do you think they showed off an entirely new area instead of a future area remade for classic
instead of bringing future content it is much more likely they create new ones of their own, and this is also in align to how inkwell said (current)gms will "go in a separate path from kms," he probably wants to make stuff of his own

Y r are all these nu maple oldfags suggesting content well after everybody left the game that nobody actually really played any of to get added back into the game?

Nobody wants that shit

>>725536148
As difficult as it might be for a literal shit-brained idiot like you to understand, there is in fact more to the game than just endgame.

>>725536203
So you're suggesting we just add areas that's completely out of context for classic standards and add bosses not meant for classic mechanics?
I'm not even a puritan or anything, I was running my remaining strawberry farms. You really just aren't smart.

Do you seriously not get the point of classic being a thing? From the perspective of nexon do you really think it would actually be wise to just rehash current maple content? Even when people would just think it's super lazy and would eventually become worried about which future content (which the target audience do not want) will be added to classic?

You really not getting the concept of "appealing to the target audience?"

>>725536385
I like how autistic retards like you cannot even comprehend the meaning of the word "adapt" or "re-design".
To you, any suggestion of incorporating old content means retaining the exact same mechanics and attributes of modern maplestory, and that simply cannot work in classic world.
When someone tries to explain that they wouldn't literally function exactly like they do in modern maplestory, and all kinds of liberties can be taken to ADAPT them for the older system, your broken deranged brain just can't understand or comprehend it. You're like a monkey. You're the type of retard who, if asked how it would feel to be cold, you would recursively answer "but i'm not cold".

People as mind-numbingly idiotic as yourself will never understand. You will always have a broken brain.

There is an easy answer to this, and its just dont add the bean. True classic maplestory sidnt need washing.

You could also do what I've heard nu-Maple does which is make boss attacks do %HP instead of a flat amount.

>>725536692
HP washing itself is just a mess due to being an unintended "mechanic" in the first place. While you don't need to do it, it brings quality of life for those willing to suffer. The process of HP washing is already miserable in terms of being stuck playing unoptimally for hundreds of hours and stuck being on the mercy of leeching on top of missing out on int gear early on just makes it so your first character can't even do it efficiently and the biggest issue of course being that it costs hundreds of dollars if not over a thousand depending how far are you willing to take it.
There is no reason to have this in the game and they have already addressed this on top of seeing changes to base HP formulas and warrior passive HP also being % instead of flat.
The reason why I dislike HP washing is that if it brings you from dying to two hits to instead dying from three hits, it is already a very comfortable change in terms of making a mistake. One can also wonder if they bring berserk for DrK later on which directly benefits from HP washing again if you can tank a hit or two more it just makes playing the game much easier and not having to clench your butt everytime you don't potion in time and are in danger of getting one tapped and losing that dreaded 10% if they keep it in the game.

While old maplestory struggles making bosses dangerous outside of spamming pots and standing still, there are ways you could implement mechanics that would improve the experience and make it more engaging. Are these sort of changes possible to add to the game? I'd believe so, but have no idea if that is the case.

so is there a release date for this yet

>>725537798
See >>725529632

>>725537750
>The reason why I dislike HP washing is that if it brings you from dying to two hits to instead dying from three hits
the actual reason for this is because youre going to level 120 mobs wearing level 5 gloves a level 25 hat and a level 30 bathrobe and shoes, all scrolled for damage. You probably have more MDef on your earrings alone than Def on your entire build.
You deserve to get 2shot.

>>725538158
G-GHHRGH LEWD CHIBIS...

>>725536783
Just make the beefy classes have skills that reduce percentage based damage

>>725538316
They are also changing the requirements on class equipments and most likely how def/mdef work aswell. Considering gloves can have crit rate now it is probably another push they are trying to do for people to use actual equipment instead of strolling around in a robe and pair of gardening gloves.
It's hard to say how exactly they are approaching the new numbers due to removing HP washing and how much def/mdef is going to affect survivability on top of other numbers they can tweak and change we have no idea about.
I do not plan on doing what you just said nor have I ever done so either. It is also probably not going to be how the game is once released, but that is left to be seen how it all works out.

I simply said do not see any reason to have HP washing in the game and instead if one needs HP for comfortable training or bossing it could be approached with different methods instead.

>>725524997
What if they made a third path for Thief that uses Phantom's gimmick of copying other people's skills?

Should Classic World pull a Reboot and prevent trading? It might not be nostalgic, but there is a reason Reboot is much more popular than regular servers. Maplestory is historically raped by rmt and even private servers suffer from this.

>dropping valuable items causes them to go into a lost & found box instead
I couldn't imagine expecting the average original maple player to want to farm for throwing stars or some other random bullshit. There would need to be a pity system on everything and Nexon flagrantly lie about drop chances when they feel it's profitable or can get a player to play longer. If RMT is such an issue there should be statistical methods of banning them before it becomes a problem. Charge a fee for access to restricted trading thats high enough that 3rd worlders can't afford losing accounts over it. $20 USD per character. I'm not going to be happy playing if we can't trade because farming literal RNG for every individual drop you want is psychotic.

Things I'm hoping for
>Party quest menu to allow for a world-wide location to advertise PQ forming (similar to how the boss menu works in Maplestory right now)
>The new areas don't overshadow the old areas but instead offer nice side content and possibly new PQs
>Party quests overall become buffed to be marginally (in terms of pure EXP) faster for leveling than grinding alone
>Party quest equips become more common and stronger so that new players can keep up without overshadowing funded players at the same level
>Equipment set bonuses remain a thing for higher level (50+) equips
>Partying up with others for grinding results in a net positive instead of a net negative EXP rate. A basic way to implement this is to add a debuff to all party members that removes EXP gained by kills other members did. For every kill you do, the debuff will then be removed or refreshed for 30 seconds and the player will then receive (100% + (2* [number of other party members])%) of the EXP gained by you or your party members killing monsters, up to 110%
>Consistent events like Modern Maplestory has, but focused on jump quests of varying difficulties with purely cosmetic rewards
>A significant shift in direction for 3rd job skills and above. It's supposed to go (1st job = beginner; 2nd job = average; 3rd job = veteran; 4th job = master; 5th job = hero; 6th job = god) and while I hope we never go past 4th job, I want to feel like each 3rd job is specializing for their niche and each 4th job is a mastering of that niche
>Potentials never exist as they ruined the game and made balancing difficult for bosses (the latest boss in maplestory has a total of thirty-two trillion, one hundred eighty billion HP)
>>725524997
I've always wondered how Maplestory would handle a class like the Dievdirbys from Tree of Savior. Essentially, Dievdirbys place down various totems that buff allies and debuff enemies, as well as act like a turret, but are weak alone.

>>725556637
>Party quest menu to allow for a world-wide location to advertise PQ forming (similar to how the boss menu works in Maplestory right now)

It actually is. Everything in root abyss can be completed with walking and a single jump except maybe very bad vellum breathe attack spawns, which can just have an arbitrarily extended wind up to account for everyone moving slower. it's 2013 bosses they don't do anything

I think the tight level range of PQs will always be the issue, once the initial rush of players die down it'll just become progressively harder to fill them.
Doesn't help that some of them like PPQ its like almost impossible to get the "max" PQ reward without going out of the level range

woah, a tiny line, so sexy

Wouldn't Maplestory be a lot more successful if they just let players romance female NPCs? They sort of had the right idea with friendstory, they just needed to expand it

>>725560179
Doing the annoying 999 kill quests that has basically 0 rewards in ant tunnel and whichever hidden street it was for green mushies

>>725560179
I forget what the map's called. I think it's somewhere between Henesys and Ellinia. It's a bunch of medium size platforms and ropes everywhere and it's a bit tedious to get from one part of the map to the other. There's a gazebo at the top too.

>>725560330
They should increase the XP for that. Doing 1000 kills with a great chunk of XP as a reward would be nice for grinding.

For me, it will be the Ant Tunnel grind parties with /v/.
That was the most fun part of the Royals guild back in 2015. Miss you guys.

>>725560202
current numbers are a joke compared to how big maple was in the old days

>>725560179
Probably controversial but the wolf spider cavern holds a special place in my heart since I found two illbies back then

>>725560179
Anything specific doesn't come to mind as I really do love so many of the maps and music and monsters you meet. I enjoy playing in the non-optimal maps as I prefer to always have somewhere to grind or farm instead of trying to channel hop non-stop.
Other than that it's nice to create a place with a guild to hang out in and eventually see some randoms come and go as having people in one spot makes for an easy stop for some players.

>>725559028
100/10 i love you anon

That's right, good guess.

>>725550892
shouldn't be allowed on /v/. mods?

>>725530128
whaaaat noooo. definitely not ones you couldve played since the very beginning

>>725524997
Super beginner, anything else can fuck off. Not shitnus knights or other fag shit. Just add a proper job system to beginner.

literally what's the point. that's the most poser shit i've seen in this whole thread, being dogshit is the point

don't think jeets are that far yet. too busy eating cow shit

Why is everyone suddenly chibisexual?

>>725535317
someone said Manji's quest line would get finished so maybe that's why he was mentioned?

>>725535069
Lel no, that's post-Big Bang. I think they shouldn't even add the late classic era classes like Cygnus, Aran and Evan.

>>725562243
No, I will get the messy hairdo. I never spent a dime on the game so it made me feel special when I got this hair. Later on they started giving out way too much customization for free. I hope they keep customization premium but don't add P2W shit like cubes.

>try to say anything
>half the chat is censored due to nexons stupid filter

>>725562243
I'm afraid I'll be dropping couple hundred on launch for cosmetics to start my nx hoe grinding game. No bowlie for me.

hey

>>725562476
i liked when they redid the char creation so there was way more choices in hair/color
i hope we get that instead of the default crap

>>725562672

I hope there's no NX on launch so there's at least a period where everyone is wearing in-game armor.

>>725562850
>no mtx during the largest window for potential profit
>in current year +1
heh

hows that old school maple worlds server?

>>725562850
NX is fine.
Most people won't bother buying any so early on.
What you really need to worry about is event cosmetics because modern maplestory has an absolute fuckload of those every event

Let us discuss our favorite job, ******in.

>The new area from maplecon didn't really seem old school or classic in any way, the monsters were super overdesigned

>>725535317
chun-ji was supposed to be part of manji's storyline that got scrapped with balrog jr not really being on the same level of boss tier enemies let alone mini bosses like mushmom who had amazing loot as maplestory exploded in popularity worldwide, nexon bought wizet out and replaced some of the original staff that were leading the story side because it was too grandiose and relegated them to support

after wizet was restructured and absorbed into nexon the game the original quest scenario writers in korea left so they started shifted the story when balrog jr was originally supposed to be one of the major antagonists of the maple world trying to free the real balrog that came much later into maplestory's life

>>725550961
>you now remember the easiest early game mesos of your life
I made as many alts as I could to sell fame, which also doubled as a hit squad for faggots to hit them with -10+ defames without exposing my main depending on how long it took them to log off

>>725524889 (OP)
Simple side game to play for a few years and feel cozy with nostalgia. New areas are also super cool, but I don't have too much hope for the long term development of that game.
>>725525348
>5th job
why do u want to ruin it for other people

>>725566562
it's not my problem you're a moron anon. there is nothing wrong with 5th job in theory, but autistic retards like you are unable to separate theoretical 5th job from literal 5th job from modern maplestory.
there is nothing wrong with having an extra job advancement to make endgame more interesting.

So is this dude >>725566706 this madwolf guy?

RO3 looks like it's basically trying to be RO Classic+ though.

What should the official /v/ guild be called?

I'm looking forward to playing it in summer of 2026 after multiple delays then again in march of 2027 after it receives enough fixes to be playable.

Keep generating these lel.
Enjoying the ones with less distinct nipple colours

>>725569614
Blud did you actually watch someone play the game or did you just watch the trailer? Becuase the game has auto-hunt, it's a mobile phone game, and the P2W is out of this world. It's just your average gacha game with a Ragnarok skin.

this is the type of person that plays this game and nexon knows. classic will be p2w

>>725570016
You only have to go through the class quests once. But yeah, I just skip that shit, even though some stories are kinda nice in an anime way, a lot of tragic events and shit.

ah right, i forgot... Lolidom/Lolicon(s)/PoolsClosed

The 4chan guild names I remember are 2Spooky, NotAgain, Kusoge, Spooky, Skeletons, Trash
If we're including Reboot on /vg/, then PageTen and Archived

Do you guys think you have any chances of getting in the Closed Beta?
I'll apply but I'm 99.9% sure I'm not getting in

What's the likelihood they add in potentials down the road to address the eventual power creep of bosses?
Killed the game for me.

>>725570997
no there is no way most of the average players are getting in, it's not like the wizet days where CBT was actually fair and not send out to only streamer, vtubers and social media influencers

>>725570797
>starting a KS war against your brothers

>>725570993
Those were filled with nu-maplers from /vg/. All post 2015 guilds were trash.

>>725570997
I'll apply if I can, but highly doubt I'll be picked. Honestly even if I'm not picked my main interest is to just see exactly what they have been working with and having people able to make videos and really dwell deeper into the changes is what interests me the most. Would be fun to try it out, but I'm not bothered much if I don't make it.

>>725571112
Don't care, madwolf

>>725570997
Everyone who bought the $250 dollar premium maplecon ticket gets a closed beta invite so you already know it won't be for any free 2 players

Nexon america are favoring ppl from socal for the closed beta. They even say so on the banner. They want real-time feedback.

>>725571169
Literally nobody knows any of the guilds you listed besides your discord crew of trannies and faggots.

I'll just be waiting for videos of the new areas to get posted from the closed beta.
Hopefully they dont drag out open beta and release too much

>>725524889 (OP)
how will they scale damage cap when they inevitablely add later content? I don't want to see my damage numbers fill the entire screen anymore

shame about that and that time travel quest where you get that pink wig, shit was cool but then they removed it and added it back in but I already quit by then

>>725570458
>spent hours filling out surveys to get a fucking trickle of NX
>half of them were actual scams and didn't pay out, or mysteriously "broke" at the end
>did more anyway
I still can't believe some of them worked at all.

>>725567253
so uh.... link to the exact model that you use to gen these?

>>725535069
fuck this pq, the low chance to get the weapons makes me never want to do this again

my guild will have a "meme quiz" of sorts in order to sort out newfags from joining

>>725571382
I hope they don't drag out the release too much either. I also hope they don't add anything too big for closed testing, if anything at all. I'd be a little bit annoyed if name reservations etc. would be available during limited closed testing.
>>725571401
They really do need to tone down the powerscaling in the future or far future. Adjusting HP stats of enemies and especially bosses so we don't have to move from 10k to 90k and then 300k and suddenly going almost 999k and there goes that. Rather having a moderate damage cap that isn't even necessarily reachable nor needed as long as it wouldn't screw over snipe depending how they work around that skill.

>>725572464
It's wan2.2 using kijai's workflow for comfyui.

Legends isn't pure vanilla. You don't know what you're talking about.
>>725524889 (OP)
Not at all looking forward to it. Why? For the same reasons private servers suck and all attempts to rekindle the naive joy of older MMOs fall flat on their face. The internet is different. People are different. The world is different. You'll never experience these games in a way anything close to how you did when they were current, and that experience was what made them worthwhile. You'll experience a simulacrum. A quick hit of nostalgia; nothing more. And then it'll be back to the rat race.

i dont feel like waiting

Simple, by not being socially retarded.
Maplestory is a social game. I laugh at retards who play it lone wolf.

>stop playing before even beating the tutorial and think you know what you are talking about
ebin

>>725587153
Don't you think its sad that 1-200 is now the tutorial before the actual game that you get launched through in an hour? Not only that but you're expected to go back to obscure level 80-100 content you were skipped past and just know that's what you needed to do to fill out missing gear slots that don't exist until around 220, sometimes never again?

>>725587323
If you are referring to totems, you aren't "expected" to do that because those items don't exist in the main version of the game, they are just some optional regional content you can do if you want to.

>>725587742
Its literally free stats and something you still need to do in reboot to gear, but also i'm talking about the boss accessories, emblems, face things like gollux/zakum and the other ones I can't remember the names of. I got to fucking Lucid before asking someone what I was missing wondering if my damage was supposed to be that ass.

>>725587323
200-260 is also the tutorial. The game starts in grandis. Anything you've done before then is fake maple maintained for nostalgia purposes. If you haven't solo'd luwill yet you are basically an infant

>>725588445
You're not really making a good argument in favor of nu-maple...

>>725587323
>go back to obscure level 80-100 content you skipped past and just know that's what you needed to do to fill out missing gear slots that don't exist until around 220
Armor and weapons drop from mobs which gets replaced with CRA and absolab from bosses until you swap out with arcane gear, also from bosses. Useful accessories drop from bosses (you're also just given a free set on a hyper burning character, which if you're new you absolutely should start with that), and get replaced with gear from other bosses. Totems can come from either a dungeon or from your guild's castle if they have researched enough to have totems in the shop. Pretty much all gear will come from bossing.

>>725588524
I'm not making an argument I'm just telling you what is it. Pocket slot is easy to figure out just looking at drops before you see a spellbook and totems you'll get eventually just being in a guild without doing afterlands.

>>725582060
If it counts as not-gameplay, I want them to change the UI. I don't like the UI we've seen from previews so far, I'd prefer it was scaled up to match the resolution and covered the entire bottom part of the screen.

ironman mode would be cool option but I wouldn't play as one. that's for mmos that have been around for like 20 years and are saddled with shitty content

>>725571292
That's for the in-person test at their office in LA. It happened months ago. There's no sign-up for the closed beta test yet.
