RIP Masteria. Seriously look at the wording of that clause. It's different than the rest in tone: local content creation is at the very bottom of priorities.
Honestly, I don't like their justification for taking so long with certain things. Not even video game ports require so much time, and the port teams are never that big. If certain content takes you months to do, it certainly doesn't sound like you're working on it from beginning to end all the time. Also, such an excuse can only go so far as the coding platform. I'm sure Maplestory is written on the same code base. This guy makes it sound like he's coding from C# to Python for sh!t's sake.
Let's put it another way. If hackers are able to turn the source code of the entire freaking game to Java to attempt to avoid a legal battle with Nexon in terms of private servers in SHORTER TIME than it takes you to code a patch, your team's got problems.

Dead masteria is dead...

If they were more committed, they would spend more energy on in-game patrol and more frequent patches. I wish they would just drop Combat Arms and focus on maple.
Thats an epicly stupid idea there, especialy from you. Combat arms generates almost A THIRD of nexon's income.
If Nexon were really keen on these updates like the devs say they are. (Which I know for sure the devs work hard because they're probably short staffed with loads of work to do, yet they get it done anyway.) They'd improve their communication from Korea. Meaning, have Devs in korea pre-translate the patch, send it over, let North America Nexon do the dirty work of sorting it out. Although it's not simple since english is considered a second language, it wouldn't hurt them in korea to at least help out with their crap rather than let everyone else sort through it and maybe unearth 12 glitches along the way.
