Have Fun Storming the Ninja Castle!

We're not getting it in October. Get over it.

i'm talking about business here. i don't even want big bang so take your attitude elsewhere.

Anyways, are these monsters any good for training? (If Nexon doesn't change them)

Head Ninjas are. In JMS, a lot of people train on them from levels 100 ~ 150ish or even higher.

i'm talking about business here..

If that's the case then it's best to release it in Dec. Christmas money and all that.

Jeez. I expected the Spanish Inquisition more than this.

As I said before. Assuming anything about Nexon at this point is pointless. They're doing things completely unexpected, for three patches in a roll.

Polka nailed it. It isn't about "assumptions" or "wishful thinking." No one cares if they do things 'unexpected'. Big Bang is their best bet against a savage competition this holiday. It's also great for the consumers coz most of us want Big Bang.

Of course they could release something else that could also get a huge wave of gamers staying in the Maple world but the likelihood isn't as high.

This is the old access verison of kaede. Which means no Neo Tokyo. The Zipangu drops and quest rewards are already butchered in comparison to to the original drops, do I expect that too. Though, it doesn't really sound like an event. I think they just want to advertise it. They really just summarized the area in a nutshell.

by then people would have already spent their 'gift' money on other big name releases.

Dec patch at the end of Nov obviously

Well, of course they'll have the old way of getting in. Future Tokyo isn't being added with it, so why would they add the new way, which is going into Kamuna and using the crystal to warp through time?

sure some kids get money for christmas but most people start shopping in november, and since this year there's so much else to spend your money on, nexon should have tried to beat the other companies to the punch by releasing it early so people would spend money on nx instead of other games. the return would have been larger than any kid is going to get for christmas.

october: everyone still has their money and can readily spend it on nx -- prime time to release big bang
november: christmas shopping hits it's stride, rash of huge releases -- poor release time. people will have to choose and nexon will rarely win
december: everyone has spent all of their leisure money on gifts, no money for nx. kids who recieved money for christmas will still have lots of choices besides nx.

if you know there's a storm coming you want to prepare ahead of it. their last chance would be in the last week of october (because they won't patch any earlier for obvious reasons) if they really want to make money on big bang. even then it's a gamble but every day they wait after mid-october means a lot less potential profit.

october: everyone still has their money

What money?

What money?

regular payday money, summer job money, whatever money you have before christmas.

i cried tears of joy

Dec patch at the end of Nov obviously

AFTER Black Friday? lolol, no way jose!

If we are talking about Nexon making the most money out of Big Bang then it's actually smarter to wait a few months. I mean, because it's not like 1000's of people didn't waste 1000's on potential just a few months ago, right?

Best to let people build some money up before they rob them blind again.

Cube sales have nothing to do with BB sales. The success of one doesn't really affect the other in any way.

HIGHEST LEVEL POISON-WEAK BOSS IN THE GAME, BB. Been waiting for this for years.

That giant toad boss... tough to beat? Haven't really seen that thing.

It isn't known to be a ranged friendly boss.

Then again, who gives a flying f'uck how hard something is in vanilla story.

they kind of do. if you only have $50 right now and you spend it all on cubes then you have nothing for 2x which is what bb's main nx-sink will be (because a lot of people are excited to train again) if they wait for the potential hype to die down and then pop this out then they've got a few more months of high income. however, nexon is great at money-making schemes so that's an entirely unnecessary effort.
