Aparentaly there were missing potentials and even scrolls on itens, i don't know exactaly, but i guess openning a shop made that, and you see what happened:f6:

One would think Nexon would have ran update tests beforehand on cloned servers in order to make sure updating the real thing wouldnt cause any problems, but apparently they dont.

For some reason, my GameLauncher doesn't auto patch and instead launches a v177 client? But the Nexon Launcher auto patched just fine.

They have a test server. They streamed today on it (and it was rather embarassing, since the people playing - not KThxBaiNao since he's out of town - didn't have much of a clue).
I guess that also explains why their testing is not as thorough as one would expect ...

Crit damage allowing people to hit the 10bil damage cap.
Fredrick wiping star force and potential from gear.
Character creation was broken.
Apparently level 160+ gear had their potential revert back to 3/6/9/12%.

Maple down until 2018.

If what Ivangold and Dark Link said is true then their testing didn't involve copying a portion of the database into those dummy servers to make sure the new contents wouldn't mess that up.

wow... there actually was a non-gamebreaking bug in the game post-patch, and it was actually beneficial! maple truly has improved since the last time i played!

also apparently i might be unbanned from whatever kind of weird-ass shadowban i had gotten so i'll try to reDL the game just to say hi and check them V skills later.

you and I have differing views on what is considered "game-breaking"

you and I have differing views on what is considered "game-breaking"

first one makes playing the game irrelevant
second one deletes pretty much all your strength
third one prevents new players (ahahahaha) and people from accessing the new event.
4th is a small buff

they're not -imma crash this channel to dupe- gamebreaking, but they certainly pineapple the game up good.

4th is a small buff

that's no buff, it's a nerf. 4/7/10/13% is what it should be
