These are the windows shown for Mechanic Equipment. Looks like it's going to be a whole new ball game.

AWESOME! So they are releasing Resistance, Victoria superisland, Super Balance and some UI at ONCE?! thats seriously AMAZING.

Hot damn so much news today. I can't keep up.

Aw, so it really is coming. I wonder why they didn't just do all three at once.

AltCtrlDlt

2010-06-17, 06:49 PM

wow. Wth happened to Nexon that they suddenly decide to make all of this changes and integrations one after another? o_O

Not complaining though. Changes and new stuff are always welcome... well, almost always...

I think this was just a really bold move by Nexon. From the looks of it, they are really stepping up, and I believe they might want some of their old playerbase back. Think about it, it makes sense. They release plenty of new classes in relatively short amount of time. They then revamp and rebalance every single class to make them fairly equal. These changes combined with changing Victoria Island and who knows what else (I'm thinking Orbis is next). This is thrilling. Invigorating. Just looking at this is getting me really excited. And I'm sure it's getting plenty of other people to feel the same way too.

I seriously feel like MapleStory is ending, and it's all the Black Mage's fault. I mean, how else are they going to explain the complete changing of Victoria?

I'm still 200 and have no reason to play "again", let alone "continue" playing when even with all these changes I'm still a class that wouldn't be invited to anything :f3:

They'll have to keep trying.

Oops, my answer was too broad. Sorry about that. Old players that weren't close to level 200 when they quit MS. I think that's a little more clear now.

Better but we still need more high level content to keep all the people who are going to be 150x when this occurs and spamming ultimates is no longer a viable way to level.

I completely agree. You never know, Korea could be a few patches away from adding stuff like that for high leveled veteran players. :D From what I've seen, I think this is the beginning of a completely new era for Maple. There has to be interesting things coming for 150+

What I'm really hoping is that since they made the change that anyone from minimum level to 200 can do a certain PQ, that the PQ's EXP reward scales for your level and the difficulty of the PQ.

They changed the World Map so it would show the new areas they've added to Victoria - Mushroom Kingdom, GPQ area, Subway, etc. Stuff that has been in game but you didn't see before.

All of that was already on the world map; Victoria Island actually got a major remodel.

I think that's the point. They want you to make a new character so you can "truly" experience the redesigned stuff. Hence all of the new classes they have been releasing lately.

LOL we will next have a class that uses rings to attack and can transform into monsters too.

OT:I wonder if they will only use the mech or if they will have a normal weapontoo.

Wouldn't get your hopes up about customizing.
Evan got special equips, but they made no physical appearance besides adding stats.

Maybe a quest line but that's about it. The new mobs tell us otherwise and it looks like they'll be with the new resistance. Most jobs come in 3's so this is nice:f2:

LegendGospel

2010-06-19, 03:38 PM

So, chances are they will be pirates? :o

Probably a hybrid that uses both guns and knucklers. Maybe guns when off-mech and the mech has both long range shots and close range attacks. I'd really like to see some actual reasons to be off the mech though, take Wild Hunters, they got no reason to be off the Jaguar... but the Jaguar has no guns, so mechanic needs to be much more dynamic.

2010-06-20, 11:08 AM

When they say resistance instructor they mean 3rd job? or are we facing yet another unconfirmed class?

I'm assuming it will kind of be like KoC.
Resistance Instructor will be who you start out as and go to for a lot of stuff, and the three others will be your actual class instructors.

And I like that idea of only Resistance being able to see them in their true forms.

Cuz i can see the robot functioning like battleship on corsairs, and the rocket boots could be a take on the hover skill?

The hover image is probably related to this?
http://spadow.files.wordpress.com/2010/04/ormykka.png?w=630&h=389

And, seeing as the mount has it's own equipment sections maybe all those equipments will determine the actual attack power of the mech, and then the actual character will wear pirate clothing equips?

Arroz

2010-06-22, 11:37 AM

probably, it woulda been nice for them to have their own equipment

Tay

2010-06-22, 11:42 AM

http://spadow.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/mechanicmountfosho.png?w=570&h=270

Well, if you look at the 3rd and 4th one, there's like a small gun's cannon below the controls. Like if the character put the gun in there. Maybe this job actually uses gun (I'd love that, so I could use my +9% attack, +6% dex gun) and inserts it inside the robot, so that will determine the weapon damage.

Tay

2010-06-22, 01:52 PM

That's probably what's going to happen. ;/

I also hope there will be some melee mech moves, I mean cmon look at those hands they gotta do something else besides be cannons.

What's next? A crit-based pirate class with insane skill percentages and high mastery that can dual wield guns in Super Saiyan form and uses powerful elemental bullets and can shoot dragon waves from his fists, and as an ultimate he can command an entire armada to rain down cannon balls across the entire map?

It's going to be awesome!

jhkplaya888

2010-06-24, 11:42 PM

I want to play that class perhaps one of the skills might be some sort of stance (no kb). Thats a huge mecha machine i dont think it should be knocked back easily. Cant wait for that giant cannon and mini gun.
