If that's the case then no, no version of Maplestory needs Big Bang before people start going "pssh this game is too easy" (*BB sneaks up on them and smacks them hard*) The problem might be high-level bosses may get overcrowded.
Potentials could also have been pre released to get the items started within the community and allowing people to accumulate better items. This would take away some of the undue burden of epic revamp-ness and "too much new stuff i don't know what to do" syndrome.
