The beta launch of MapleStory?s official online trading card game is coming your way very, very soon.

Here?s a sneak peek at what you can do in-game:
- Play head to head with your friends
- Spawn MapleStory monsters to fight at your side
- Trade special cards online to improve your deck
- And, of course, much, much more?

There will be plenty of exciting events for beta participants, so join us and be one of the first to try iTCG Online! There are no sign-ups or downloads needed, all you need is your Nexon Passport. Easy enough!

See you in the lobby on August 11th!

Think I might be the only person happy for this.

Meh. I think the fact that there isn't a client download is a bad thing. It makes the game seem crappy..that's just my opinion. I hate browser-based games.

iTCG cards were real and no one actually played them, what makes Nexon think somebody will actually play a virtual version.

"Because they can and it's free!"

If you win 10 times in a row they give you codes that spit out FS and SCGs.

I just find it strange that nexon had the crazy idea to make an online game based off a card game based off an online game...

Made in flash = Easy to hack.

Flash is only hackable if you code it like an upside down monkey.

I think you and I may be the only ones happy about it.

I think the three of us might be the only ones happy about this. I was sad when they cancelled iTCG. It could've gone anywhere. But it went down.

Even if you code it diligently, it's significantly easier to hack a flash program by running a helper program.

Let me introduce you to the coders of Nexon. In their spare time they are trying to reproduce the complete works of shakespeare on typewriters >_>

Using their tails.

I can code my flash games to be unhackable with say, Cheat Engine or software like that. But unless they plan on storing your deck on a server people can just edit the .sol files to get any deck they want for starters. Also people will just decompile it and make a trainer so programs like Cheat Engine won't even be needed.

I wonder how obtaining new cards would work in this game; perhaps a method like the Yu-gi-oh video games I used to play as a kid?

For those who've never seen them:
Basically, some games, like Eternal Duelist Soul, start you out with a starter deck you choose at random; and gives you the following results:
Normal Monsters 25
Levels 1-4 22
Levels 5-6 3
Effect Monsters 1
Levels 1-4 1
Fusion Monsters 0
Magic Cards 9
Trap Cards 5
Ritual Cards 0
To get new cards, you got them from beating opponents; for some games, they came as trading card packs.

they could somehow mix in code cards :3 a lot of people would play it

God I remember when I used to play the actual card game (lol7yearsold), that deck sounds horrible.
