Hi Maplers,
In our continuing efforts to improve your overall experience with MapleStory, we want to let you know about some big changes coming in the next few weeks. First off, we are happy to announce that the official MapleStory website is getting a new look in August! The revamped MapleStory website will feature a more streamlined experience, providing you easier access to the latest MapleStory news and events from your PC, tablet and mobile devices. Heres a sneak peek:
In conjunction with the upcoming launch of the new MapleStory website, we also will transition away from web launch functionality for MapleStory, moving to the Nexon Launcher in August. The Nexon Launcher is our new streamlined approach for installing, updating and playing all of your favorite Nexon games, including MapleStory. With this change, we will be eliminating many of the technical issues that arose from web launch, providing for a smoother gaming experience for our players. If you already have MapleStory installed, you only need to download and install the Nexon Launcher and the game will transfer over!
Click here to download the Nexon Launcher.
We look forward to sharing more details and updates on these changes over the next few weeks. Happy Mapling!
- Artasi, MapleStory community manager

Not as bad as my first guess, but still worse than what we have now. At least it seems to actually do what you go to the website for, read the bloody news.

I like the KMS website, it's really clean and simple. Now it's looking like a blog style format.

I figured that they would move to a responsive website eventually, just didn't know when. If the staggered launch of the new Nexon navigational bar is any indication, Mabinogi will be up next to get a new website and then Dragon Nest and then the main Nexon website will get a revamp. Atlantica Online is on the chopping block and will no longer be in service by then/or will be close to the end date (I'm assuming). Combat Arms won't get a new website since it's now managed by Nexon EU with NxA "shadow-publishing" (also because the current Combat Arms website is technically "new", NxE relaunched it completely a couple of weeks ago (with the homepage updated last December).
Forums will probably be kept the same. MapleStory won't get a new forum until Vindictus gets it, which doesn't seem to be happening any time soon. (Dirty Bomb is an exception).
The order of importance of Nexon's games appear to be:
Dirty Bomb/Vindictus -> MapleStory -> Mabinogi -> Dragon Nest -> Atlantica (at the far, far end).
I'm wondering when Ghost in the Shell Online will make an appearance. It's Q3 and no further news and announcements have been made from NxA yet regarding the state of the game. I hope the Q3 report gives us some more insight.

Supposedly all the forums are moving to what Dirty Bomb is using, at some point.

Yeah, they told everyone about 8 months ago that they were working on the new Vindictus forums.

And no further news has been made about it since, not from Nexon (other than a "we're working on it!!!111") and nothing from their Account Manager over at Vanilla Forums.
