Unscheduled Patch - March 1, 2013

lol @ the game coming up mere minutes after the announced extension.

Wonder how two NPC's could have caused crashing.

[Complete] The maintenance is complete as of 4:15PM (PST). Cash items in your inventory have been extended to cover the amount of time the game was unavailable.

We will be performing an unscheduled patch on March 1, 2013. It will last approximately 4 hours.

Thanks for your patience!

Time:
Friday, March 1
Pacific: 12:00 AM - 4:00 AM
Eastern: 3:00 AM - 7:00 AM


What will be unavailable:

• All MapleStory game servers.
  

Changes and Updates:

• To prevent Momijigaoka area crashes some players are experiencing, Tokugawa Ieyasu in the Momijigaoka fort and Naoe Kanetsugu in Maple Hill Road 1 will be removed.
  
• Quests related to Naoe Kanetsugu in Maple Hill Road 1 will be modified to accomodate his absence.
  
• Danika Hair will be added to the female Royal Hair list as originally announced, and Dip Dyed Hair - which had been incorrectly labeled as "Danika Hair" - will be removed.
  
• Dip Dyed Hair will be properly named, instead of being incorrectly labeled "Danika Hair."
  
• A fix will be applied for the full attendance reward for the Winter Attendance event, for players who were affected by the unscheduled maintenance on February 7 and who did not receive the proper reward in the v.129 update.
  
• A fix will be applied for the orientation of some facial expressions for the Kanna faces.
  
• Japanese text that appeared when clicking on tulips in certain maps will be removed.

Only Nexon time.

It was kinda weird seeing an "Unscheduled Patch"

I don't get why they went up a whole major revision number. Why not just do a minipatch to 129.2?

They did a version-up because they intend to make the Full Client Installer match it.

The Full Client Installer can't be on a minipatch? Even so, after downloading a 2 GB installer, a 15.27 MB update shouldn't be that much of a hassle for new players.

You'd think, but to some people it could be "Oh, I just downloaded this giant thing and now I have to UPDATE IT?"
Most games do do this (looking at you, GW2) but that doesn't really make it any better.

I'm amazed they did something about the attendance check. I was sure all those people would be screwed.

Nexon also forgot to mention that everyone gets a free 1-day Hyper Teleport Rock.

Yea, they just screwed us that finished the attendance quest and had our expansion coupons expire before the patch instead.

Huh, it seems they fixed male Kanna's broken F6 in this patch?
