Maplestory Europe is unplayably broken

EMS has lost it´s appeal for me.

The ability to play in your language was nice before big bang. There were even channels for every language to help you communicate with your own people. And ofcourse the 3 main channels "EUR1", "EUR2", "EUR3". Since big bang it has been deleted. Ofcourse gameplay got easier and the social factor began to decrease.

After big bang, the translation and overal update for other languages besides english were awfully done. They just did not care for the uniqueness that was EMS. For example right now our settings dutch "UI"


Then the next fail factor : the customization options were limited. Nexon EU thought "Hey why not delete everything out of the cash shop and add 5 items per 2 weeks which are very expensive and permanent." So yea that part kind of died too. I would make characters to customize them but that's not possible anymore. A lot of protesting was done on the forums, only to see the EMS community being ignored - again - .

Since big bang everything has been a copy + paste of either MSEA or GMS. I got german, dutch and english all mixed together in one NPC -__-" come on NexonEU do you ever double check? EMS is going down hill , we are next version to go after, brazilMS and vietnam MS. The list of Maplestory's seems to get smaller.

Thai MS is dead before EMS, MSEA and EMS will die in their time, but EMS will die first.

And KMS lost so many players with Unlimited that they merged to like, a single server.

Is GMS the most healthy version now? I think we've dodged a full bullets with how Unleashed is being released, and despite how broken it was upon release, it's not THAT bad beyond the downtime and rollback. The most serious drawback to GMS is the fact that we're so dependent on following KMS (and a bit of other versions) and don't do well developing our own, unique content. Thankfully KMST is still rolling out classes and revamps, so there's no doom in the forecast yet. XD

I don't know as much about the versions in China and Japan though.
