Behind the Content: Big Bang Developer Interview
We have all heard about this huge update known as Big Bang. So what is it about? How did the planning for it start? Our Global Team answers the questions you are dying to ask.
------------------
In case you run into some technical issues we have some suggestions that would help smooth the update and installation process.
Perform Windows Update
You may be lacking essential updates on your computer to run MapleStory properly. Follow these steps:
1. Update to the latest DirectX that matches your graphics card.
2. Update your graphics card drivers.
3. Details on how are provided on our download page. Please scroll to the bottom.
Patching/Updating the Game
It is important you have enough hard drive space on your computer to download and install MapleStory. We recommend having at least 6 gigs of space available during this process. To find out how much space you have available go to My Computer and right-click C: drive and select Properties. You will see a pie graph indicating what is available and used. If you do not have enough space, try to delete unnecessary files and empty your trash after.
Stuck on the Patcher
If you are stuck on a phase during the patcher it might be because your computer lacks hard drive space. Please check that you have enough space to update the game. Sometimes the patcher can seem stuck because there are a lot of people patching. Please give it a few moments for it to resume.

Forgot a step.
Log On an proceed to QQ as most likely your skill build is 100% invalid and we are gipping you out of a reset until the 11th, but don't smile just yet because its for a very limited window.
Buy some NX todaY!

6 gigs!!?? Jiminy Christmas batman! That's a lot of space! I wonder that also includes the swap space required as well?

Oh wow. So it's not their fault, but the players' fault? Real smooth, Nexon. No cigar; everyone knows you pineappled up this patch.

Yes, because of how the program patches the game. You will need to have [Current Maplestory size] * 2 (swap) * 1.125 (new information in patch) + [Patch size * 2] to patch your game. Considering that Maplestory is like 2.2gb, I'd say their recommendation is accurate.

"If you are stuck on a phase during the patcher it might be because your computer lacks hard drive space. Please check that you have enough space to update the game."
OF COURSE! THAT MUST BE IT!
No but really, do they even need to say that? I would think thats one of the obvious things to check?
