Seems like normal.

DarkNightSyndrome Wrote:General Outlay of MapleStory Versions, from what I see.

KMS: Creates everything (except exclusives) original, with the tendency of brokenness that needs nerfing down the road. And never ever completes things (rebalancing always gets cut halfway when they're bored, keep trying to create new cycles like Cygnus instructors and Novas that were never completed, and finally completed Resistance via Xenon as two-class-in-one.)

JMS: Creates awesome original exclusive content. When they take content (EG Root Abyss), they improve on the content for the benefit of the players. When they removed content (Monster Books when they were first removed), they instead revamped them to higher levels (Familiars).

GMS & CMS: Creates unoriginal exclusive content (Jett/Dragon Warriors are both ultimately just pirate reskins and remixes) and simply just takes everything else from everywhere else. I don't count Masteria and the old China Maps anymore even if they were original since those were eons ago.

EMS: At least they tried (Veracent, MapleStory Hell Mode), but also by and large a feeder.

MSEA: Creates terrible original content (Enchanted Forest) or "creates" exclusive contents (ZEN - Dragon Warrior), takes contents from other versions and nerfs them hard. Nerfing is a default move to the point when CMS took Enchanted Forest, they even had to buff the content to make it viable.

Dark Zero Wrote:Even more...

TWMS is recovering their pace...

HOwever it seems that MSEA is the next to die, and then EMS...

Even Wrote:You people make it sound like some servers are about to die when nexon clearly dont have the idea of shutting down any servers anytime soon. Why would you close ems? Europe is by far one of the richest parts of the world to make money from, euros are worth more than dollars and the avg person makes more money here (especially in denmark & norway). I dont think they will be shutting down any servers for the next 4-5 years and if anything they would shut down the single language servers over the multilang ones.

As for msea, thats up to asiasoft if they want to continue investing money into it or not, they will still be getting content from kms and what not even if something like GMS or TWMS closed.

tl;dr: Imo this game isnt going anywhere untill a better 2d game comes along, that applies to all maple servers.
