[GlobalSite] MS Downloader
#1
Looks like Nexon keeps on adding in new things.

http://maplestory.nexon.net/WZ.ASPX?PART...amePatches

A new "downloader" was added not too long ago.

Apparently, there is a Pirate logo on the downloader.

"The MS Downloader Beta allows for faster download speeds. Once you have installed the MS Downloader Beta from the above link, start downloading the latest MapleStory version by clicking on the MapleStory Downloader icon on your desktop and selecting the location where you would like to save the file. You will be able to pause and resume during the MapleStory client download process."

Wait...only for making patch download speeds faster? Kind of...lame.

According to the digital signature, it's powered by a peer-to-peer backend called Pando networks: http://www.pandonetworks.com/

They're just trying to lower their bandwidth.

Maybe if it was a patch accelerator. But people don't download the game client every day.

I loved this similiar feature in JMS. I'm glad Nexon America is bringing it to GMS.

EDIT: Here's what it looks like:

@ fiftyschmooo... tl;dr. I couldn't make anything out of that mess. -_-;

Back on topic, I don't see it being THAT useful unless such a system was used for auto-patching. Nice subtle hint on Pirates though.

No idea how you read that and got 'patch downloader'

It's for the FULL CLIENT, guys. Why would this be for the patch?

Unless of course, the latest patch is 1020MB.
