L> GMS to get THIS from JMS for BB. D:
I love and wanna keep the monster book. ); I'm sure lots of others do, too.

To even include event drops?

The book is probably dynamic then, like everything else in Big Bang.

And how well does the monster info and such fit now? Dang it would be nifty if we could get a fully updated book to GMS.

I'll see if I can get ss of my own when I login tonight.

Yeah, but Nexon is going to have lots of rage on their hands if they don't fix the SP Resets....

At level 161, I should have what? 459 SP? I was given back 449... That's 10 less SP. :|

This isn't surprising, Nexon Japan has competent programmers. It would be nice if Nexon America adopted this but I don't find it likely.

Oh do they now? I agree they have some cool ideas and the actual implementation seems smooth. But changing the core story of both Evan and Dual blade seems to be asking for future inconsistencies. Their exclusive areas are all beautifully designed to be sure, but the bosses there are nothing short of stupid. Some give enough exp while spawning in such a way as to create drama and hatred, and some do damage that force half of the classes to HP wash to be able to try it. Big Bang seems to even that out, but that was hardly planned ahead when they made the areas. One other example would be the Elemental weapons, great when they came since they evened the field some but stupid and overpowered with BB.
Na to me it looks like they are all the same, same food, different spices. Dr. Crow says: "Simple case of Greener grass syndrome".

None of that has anything to do with their ability to program, which is all I specifically stated. They wrote the MTS, they've efficiently managed changes to their game with only minor failings usually coming from already existing but overlooked bugs from data merges, like they had and quickly fixed the shuffle. Nexon Japan knows how to program, there is no doubt about that.

You are right. I just wanted to lift the fact that good programming in JMS' case often do not turn out with the best results. Not because of buggy impementation, but because of bad calculation of the impact.

Only problem with JMS team is that they're slow. As most Japanese stuff/companies/gov'ts, they are slow.

Is that a gender symbol I see in that SS? Monsters are assigned male and female ?

It's a female sand rabbit.

I thought so. Just thought Imperial Guards were bosses or are they just very annoying mobs?
