I hope it's gonna be a blast too, let's get that Beta Bandana :)
I had fun whenever i tried to play KR. Lag prevented me from getting very deep into the game but the general feel is very maplestory. Early maplestory not every has insane movement abilities and map clearing skills maplestory.
Hopefully the cash shop won't be ridiculous. Otherwise I am glad to see it's coming westward finally.
sadly its Nexon lol, they will destroy the game. maybe not at launch but eventuallyQuote:

Depending on how things go it could stir some activity around here as well, but we'll see.
Whatever happens I don't think it will be as bad as playing on regular servers in MS1, it seems less reliant on spending money compared with ms1 regular servers.
Hey chaos, does MS2 have a spear specialization? If you know/recall that is
Nope no spear using classesQuote:

This game is a giant grind fest and gets boring if you want to play Solo. Only thing which would keep me playing is if I could make fashion clothes and sell well on the market.
If you join late into the game, leveling will be very long. When the beta comes out, everyone will just go to the same places and run in a pattern for hours and hours to get 1 touch on as many monsters as possible to get all the exp, and you'll do that till you hit a good enough level to go to the other grind fest spot. You level really fast like this, and will hit max level in about a week or two.
Then if you want unique items or stuff, you gotta grind down on a monster for hours and hours and hours to get it. World bosses are the same, just wait for timers, get there with a mass amount of lag and hope you did enough damage for a good drop. I mean... not much to the game from what I played in the KR beta, but I can't lie that it was surprisingly fun. Something about Maplestory makes grinding always feel satisfying.
After hitting max level though, it's really a big social game, because grinding for items and upgrades is boring, and I couldn't spend real money to get fashion items made to sell. So I had to leave the game. Btw, setting up a controller to play this game is very easy, and nice addition.
Atm, I can't do grind fest MMOs anymore. But the graphics and fluid controls are nice. Lag doesn't really matter cuz you're zerging with a giant group to level anyway.
The PVP is completely unfair...
World bosses aren't exciting...
Meh. Lots of maps tho, that's nice. Especially if you get ahead of the pack and have to do some solo grinding.
No much flexibility with builds... you can become super gimped very easily. Not sure if they fixed that.
You definitely don't want to miss the start of the beta (if they're not wiping). Because you want to be fast on getting into the level parties in zerg areas. The more time you waste, the more lag there will be. Also, more people means less exp, but faster safer killing. So be smart about what channels you choose when zerging. If you can kill without using potions and a smaller group without wasting a second on the mobs spawn timers, then do that. Maximize your time and effort.
Key sentance being you played korean beta... it's changed sinceQuote:

Wow, I should've expected better. I mean, look at MapleStory, still going strong.

You open up photoshop/paint and make w.e costume you want, Obviously needs to be PG13 or you get a Ban.
i like how companies are now trying to teach the younger crowd how to code/icon. Big fan of this feature!
This looks amazing... if i wasn't already hyped enough!Quote:

looking at the website. if you didnt get in you can still by doing the road trip stuff:
if the website can handle the traffic you'll have your chance to snatch a spot in the beta when the last objective unlocks, april 30th.Quote:
The first 10,000 eligible participants to complete all activities will be automatically accepted into Closed Beta.
Make sure to finish all the activities by May 6th, when Closed Beta sign-ups end and the Road Trip comes to a halt!
10k spots should be a decent time window to get in for those fanatics who absolutely have to play this beta.
I did not get it either :( I ended up buying a KMS Nexon account and am currently a lvl 30 berserk super fun game with the english patch!
So MS2 is getting a battle royale mode .. i just don't even know anymore..
Seems to be a limited time thing in KMS..... Plus they only let you play 7pm-10pm korean time for me thats like 3am so I dont even get to try it :(Quote:
