Does GMS need the BB patch ASAP?

I want the BB patch so GMS has an easier time dealing with Chaos Zakum and HT. 1bil Chaos Z-helms make me cringe. Who the pineapple would pay 1b for a clean 21-to-all 10% hp helm. Sure, the HP is nice and all. Oh yay moar +6 all stats compared to a zhelm. Zakum helmet buyers are stupid.

Agreed. I'd much rather use a Scarlion Hat. It gives the same potential bonuses and is only slightly weaker.

Innate 10% HP is pretty nice.

But i can see my face with a chaos zhelm D:

Permanent transparent helm

I want a Windows 7 compatible client before anything gets done. I'm unable to play the game because of this stupid issue. I want Big Bang as much as the next guy, but there are too many issues right now that have not already been fixed yet. Big Bang will probably just bring even more problems.

Don't forget Windows Vista my man.

But like he said, that should be a priority before Big Bang.

IMO You don't need it in the first place.
kMS needed it, but gMS is on a whole different level.

I would love it if GMS only got the the Resistance classes, skill changes and the damage cap raised since KMS did a piss poor job on everything else about Big Bang.

We need it but not for your reasons.

GMS BB: Everything KMS got except the EXP reduction.

GG.

lol, you mean the huge exp curve i've heard about?
the 80% curve?

and, i would only want bb update for skills....i'm sorry, but i fell heavily (and heavenly) in love with beholder's revenge
GO TO HELL POWER GUARD! GOT NOTHIN' ON THAT

For some reason, I believe the same thing will happen.

They need to fix the D/C issues and patch every glitch, hack, and exploit possible before we even consider getting BB here.

Truth be told I know a lot of people who would like BB to simply not happen... me included.

I think Big Bang is incomplete as it is. I love how they actually DID change things, and all that. I also don't know to full 100% detail exactly on everything that's changed(though I have been keeping up to date on the popular things). But honestly there are some things I feel weren't even answered to properly. I mean, how do you balance shadowers? OH LETS GIVE THEM SHADOW PARTNER AND FLASH JUMP WITH THE SAME HERMIT ANIMATIONS. I really think they could have done better than that. They could have at LEAST given them unique animations for it. A lot of other skills I feel need an animation change as well. Purple fury strikes are cool, but I feel that it needs something more than just a pallet swap. As far as I can tell, big bang has become elementally discriminative towards your mage affinity class, this is pretty cool. But have they changed the animation to reflect that change? I'd like a ice/lightning looking big bang, it'd look a lot cooler than a neutral(holy looking) attack. Since I don't use a viper(although I was planning on making one) I don't think destroying most of it's unique features in order to power it up(decreasing delays and removing CSB'S frame) was a good way to ''balance'' them, it just made their DPS pro. I just feel they could have buffed them up a different way or something. The multi-hitting skills are pretty disturbing to me as well. I know it's trying to work for the benefit of critical, but I just can't stand blast hitting 3 times. There are quite a bit of incomplete feeling changes they have made to classes, and I feel that a lot of the skills need new, updated animations(although not all of them).

The EXP curve is something I like, as much as people are going to hate it, leveling can get really boring on this game for most people, and I totally support easier leveling.


I don't think any version needs this patch ASAP, I think big bang needs to be done a little bit more to feel complete, true, allowing every class to hit half a million damage at level 170 is probably balanced, but I just feel they could have done more than ''let everyone have pwn dmg''. There are a lot of changes with big bang that I like though, a lot of classes have multipliers in awesomeness because of BB, it just feels though....something doesn't feel right. You know? Feels like something is missing, it just doesn't feel like ''this is maplestory 2.0''. More like ''This is maplestory 1.5''. Honestly, I'd rather go for new content in GMS than get big bang, maybe the EXP curve update..but I think KMS needs to do a little more before they themselves released big bang. Credits to them for doing something, at least, I was happy to see how much they did change.(also, I think every new job needs to be completed, they all feel so incomplete).

gMS really does need client compatibility though. Vista, 7 are out of hand, and I hope a fix will come along the BB patch. Times are changing, and once the next OS for Microsoft comes out, we're screwed again.

They had better fix that before BB; no real reason to wait on it. In my opinion it would only be that much harder to get adjusted if we were unable to do some prior set-up to BB (IE finishing in progress quest chains), which as things stand now, we can't.

I would prefer they leave the accuracy system alone and keep it as is.

I think Big Bang is incomplete as it is.

Big Bang is complete, but Maple Story isn't. Big Bang was just the name given to the initial extreme changes to the game during it's updates, but that's it.

Any updates in the future won't be ''adjusting the Big Bang content'', it'll just be adjusting the Maple content like it's always been.

Your poll is biased, and I see no discussion value in this thread. I'll leave it open to see where it goes.

...Ray, why do you do this to us? You know what this leads to. WHY. WHY? WHY?!
-Cries in lonely solace-

We do not need the Big Bang.
