[0.89] Visitor

 Spoiler

Technically it's Dr. Bing from the future that's telling you to stop the creation of the time machine. Future-Bing is the "Ultimate Visitor" as based on the death animations(Lol, it's a Meta Knight ripoff, honestly.). After fighting him, you do a quest where you have to go to the past(Before you're brought aboard to build the time machine at all) where you have to convince Past-Bing to not build a time machine. All in all, decent story, but like I said, poorly executed.

Honestly I have to disagree about it being poorly executed. I thought they did a splendid job on the entire storyline--the quests, the characters, the timeline of how everything goes and the way that the whole storyline moves on "real" time.

Like Isaac said (I think it was Isaac...), they are trying a lot of new things for this event, and overall, they did pretty well for the first time.

Sneaking past the aliens (stealth mission), moving platforms, after killing an alien a device appears that spawns a couple more of the same kind of aliens, etc.

I'm liking all that!

I'm not sure if that was sarcasm or not, lol.

Well, if it wasn't, agreed. All of those are pretty cool. I think the stealth mission is most unique; I think, though, the moving platforms were long overdue for Jump Quests. I feel like they could've been implemented a longggggg time ago.

What I by meant poorly executed was that Nexon was being Nexon and screwed something up(copypasting the entire patch from Tespia, in this case) when the patch was implemented.

The moving platforms are very impressive because footholds in maple are usually hard-coded X/Y values in the map data, which would mean they had to be stationary. For a long time i assumed it was impossible but they've found a way around that so big props for that. Just... man, they really need more thorough QA because things like this invincible monster overload shouldn't be making it to the live servers on a regular basis.

All in all though the new tricks they've tried out are giving me reinvigorated hope for some cool stuff in the future. Now if they can just clear up the windows 7 issues so i can actually try it.

That's true. Although, I can see why they thought it was perfectly OK to copypasta the entire thing from Tespia, because up until the point where they closed it, the only glitch me and my GF encountered, was the issue of the 4th mini-boss spawning inside the Alien Ship PQ (since he didn't spawn, you couldn't make it to the final boss of the entire PQ, thus you couldn't finish it). Everything else worked pretty much perfectly.

Indeed. (I can't really say that I feel the pain of the Windows 7 issues and stuff, since I still use XP.)

This may open some doors to GMS finally doing more original content and making up for all the lost time in regards to Masteria. I certainly hope so.

The monkey looks a little ulgy imo ._.

Anyone know if the sun bleached hair is available yet ?
The others seem to be.

Does the Other pet items like item pounch and auto pot will be permanent too? or only the pets will be? thanks
