Some thoughts on next year's patches

All I know is '09 won't be that exciting.

Only cool things we can possibly get is,

-Time Temple
-Cygnus
-More NLC

The rest of the updates fail.

How can CWK II and Item Maker fail?

All I want to come is CWK II and Item Maker to come out soon.

Im pretty sure he was grouping CWK in as part of NLC, as it is an extention of it, sort of. More Masteria at any rate.

Item maker is also meh, I think its good, but itll be overhyped to some end at the same time. You still need dragon scales/souls to make the 110 weapons I believe, so yeah, also it lowers prices on Zak/HT drops as well, well, depending.

There's so many NLC expansions that we can get though. Plenty to keep the year interesting.

Of which we will probably get 2 , 3 patches tops having anything to do with masteria.

And if any of those patches actually do anything to replace/add more training spots for anyone or add more items/deflate anything expensive, i'd say those updates are worth it.

No doubt they're really going to crank out some good stuff next year though. The quality of their content updates have been increasing over time, so next year should be interesting.

12 months means 12 patches. 3/12 patches for just NLC sounds good. Add in the other two spots he said and we're almost at every other month for a new, exciting patch. What's to complain about?

i realy hope that re places w/ healable monsters come out D:
and i cant w8 for maker

Yes, please don't put godly, healable mobs in NLC. D:
On the other extreme, no more Guardian-like mobs. <_<''

Ooo.. Predictions!

I'm thinking..
January - Magatia PQ, Item Maker, Shanghai (for the Lunar New Year)
February - Monster Book, Area Boss III, Minidungeons for leafre and Magatia, iTCG update
March - CWK II, Bullet Taxi
April - Easter Events, Fishing System o_O
May - Ellin Forest (What better way to celebrate the land of Victoria's anniversary than going back to it's past?), Anniversary Events
June - Malaysia/XiMenDing & Night Market
July - Independence Day Events
August - XiMenDing & Night Market/Malaysia, Ellin Forest PQ
September - iTCG update?, Area Boss IV
October - Halloween Events, Return of Halloween PQ
November - Thanksgiving events, Krakia
December - Time Temple (PINK BEEN), Return of Happyville PQ, Return of Extra Frosty Snow Zone

Well, there's my opinions.. Cygnus might be 2010..

Wow...that's actually one of the most logical things I've seen, no sarcasm.

"CWK 2" (the REAL Crimson Wood Keep, not just the entrance) was part of my list, and fell under the NLC expansion.

Reason I didn't add Monster Book and Item Maker to my list is the fact they aren't that big of updates (to me). It's not something I would like to use everyday in maple. Not something you can really spend hours on and explore*.

*Monster Book- You can be dedicated to it and CAN spend hours on it. But not something that really excites me. I'm pretty sure this will add the Pokemon Poke'Dex feel to the game, and I myself love Pokemon games, and would like to add a couple monsters to my Monster Book, but I'm pretty sure there will be others that want to accomplish the goal of a complete Monster Book.

It's really all opinion.

That was just my list of the only things that would excite me this year.

Sounds like majority agree with me on my list besides the fact of those other two expansions. (Monster Book and Item Maker)

Am I the only one here who still cares about non-CK NLC? Like Krakia and Versal and sh'it?

Me.

Krakia has potential. We just don't know enough about it compared to Crimsonwood.

B> Krakia, Yetinx, Inside of Bigger Ben (a PQ imo, maybe a JQ), Affluent tower, and the billion of other places that NLC has coming to it.

It's interesting how NLC has the most potential updates, but since it's GMS exclusive, all of these updates are in the hands of Nexon America.

CWK II
Time Temple
Area Bosses
World Tours
Magatia PQ
Full-working Monster Book
Maker Skill
Ellin Forest
Cygnus

Those are all things that will probably (hopefully, for some like Time Temple) come within the next year that aren't related to NLC expansions. Do I care about some of the new NLC places, like Versal, Kradia, etc.? Of course, I'm extremely excited for them. But I highly doubt Nexon is more ready to release those areas over some of the above, as those areas they actually have to work on creating from square one, whereas the other places on this list (excluding CWK II, which is already slotted for next month) just have to copied over and translated. And of course, censored for the little gMS kiddies like Showa's Armory -_-'.

This scares me. A lot.
I hope they learn how droprate works before the next NLC expansion. <_<

Well, I do think the one jshperz posted is real realistic.

October - Halloween Events, Return of Halloween PQ
November - Thanksgiving events, Krakia here, just in time for those blasted Turkeys.

Based on past servers, the bold is when each new server will come out. <_<

I hope Temple of Time and Pink Been get realeased soon

I hope This year will be full of World Tour 100% shanghai soon. perhaps Taiwan cuz they have our 2 exclusive amoria and NLC. And maybe Ulu City *_* Yay

In my opinion. Also in masteria will be at least 2 new area (ck II and Krakia)
