Maplestory 2 coming soon?

[Wheels1]

MapleStory in 3D? No thanks. I'd rather have Nexon concentrating on MapleStory in 2D.

[Dark Link]

Wasn't MS2 in "production" like

4 years ago Lol.

What does that have to do with anything?
New MMOs are always in development for years before any "Leak" starts occurring.

Regardless, I hope MS2 is P2P...

Fat chance.

[Dark Link]

Fat chance.

Yeah, I know it'll never happen, but I can still hope :(
F2P Model is HUGE right now.

[Alloy]

pfff, I liked maplestory for its simplicity and being only 2D. I'm sticking with the traditional one.

[Foxino]

Hey the cow isnt dead yet! -stares at GMS-
Not in korea anyway.

And lol @ 3D Maple. The reason i played Maple is because it was "Quirky" and sorta "unique" and being 2D was part of that. So yea, better be pineappleing awesome to justify being 3D

You should absolutely credit whoever finds something of importance like this. It was hidden in plain sight and chances are that if Viaje hadn't posted it then it would've gone unnoticed for some time to come.

It's not like it's terribly difficult to go "Thanks to Viaje of Southperry for the find!" It is terribly unprofessional and kind of sleazy not to give credit for such a find because it comes across as trying to take credit for it yourself. Major and minor news sites and blogs will almost always cite their sources.

Example: http://www.siliconera.com/2011/12/17...uardian-cross/

I'm a big advocate of giving credit where credit is due.

edit: taken to VM to avoid further derailment for whatever that is worth.

Southperry isn't the only forum alive.

Reminded me of those old 3D videos on the MapleStory website.

[sverreerik]

I just want Maplestory2 to be more like Paper Mario.

[Onion Knight]

That made Jr. Balrog look like such a badass, kidnapping noobs and everything.

In the actual game, 1hko.

[Corn]

They should've waited until the 3rd version to make Maplestory 3D, so at least then they can have at least a lousy pun.

[KhainiWest]

No thanks. I won't be playing another Nexon run game ever again.

This so much.


Guy's let's be realistic, maplestory worked because it was a platformer, this is just another DN clone, by the same company. Things like Tera and blade and soul, will eat this thing alive.

...Things like Tera and blade and soul, will eat this thing alive.

No ty. Blade and Soul will obviously require a hugely strong hardware to run properly.

If this game is fast paced then it will be good, but then again, it would be like like another Dragon Nest and many other similar games, fading away. The only reason why I still play MapleStory is because it's 2D and the gameplay is fast, while there is no other game out there that is as good to deliver that. Nexon should have listened it's playerbase about this when everyone and their mother suggested this should be a 2.5D game, like Maverick Hunter X.

Er, blade and soul requires strong hardware, hardware that was strong maybe 3 years ago
Minimum:
CPU: Intel Dual core/AMD Athlon 64X2 or better
RAM: 2G or better
VGA: nVidia Geforce 8600GT/AMD Radeon HD4600 or better
HDD: 15GB
OS: Windows XP (Service pack 2), Vista, Win7 (32bit / 64bit)

Pretty much $200 card's

[Clamors]

I'll have to pass on this...as intriguing as it sounds, I doubt it'll be coming out anytime soon...going to hang up my MS coat and stick with the 2D stuff for a little while longer.

*Dusts off DFO account*

Keep in mind that video was first shown in 2005 or so, it's really old xD There used to be a few of them on the MapleStory website but I think they're gone now.

[Satellite]

Regardless, I hope MS2 is P2P...

Then I wouldn't even touch it with a stick.

[Kirov]

Well I made the mistake of playing a game published by Nexon once, it’s not something I would be keen on repeating.

I wonder if a 3D maple could stand out as much as a 2D one though. The fact that it's 2D seems to be one of the biggest initial draws for people.

[buddyseeker]

Expect to see the new vacuum hack.....in 3D!!!!!

[Viaje]

I like that he used two images from members here and didn't credit them with the finds at all. At least Viaje deserves credit since he dug it out.

Thank you!

This is why I tend to end up hating these information blogs.
The concern for giving credit where credits is due is absolutely abysmal.

I'm a big advocate of giving credit where credit is due.

As am I.
It's a disgusting trend of bloggers not to cite sources and it pisses me off.

I guess anyone who reports news a second later should be crediting whoever reported it a second earlier.

When they're clearly reporting it third-hand, yes, they fucking should be crediting the person they got the information from.

Yes, maybe Max would have bothered to look through the packet and notice the information himself.
However, I find it more than condemning that the three bits of information in his post just so happen to be three of the four things I pointed out in the original thread.

Regardless, I hope MS2 is P2P...

Not gonna happen for a variety of obvious reasons beyond "F2P".

Southperry isn't the only forum alive.

Max = orangemushroom blog

That link provides absolutely nothing to the discussion.
Marvelous.

I just want Maplestory2 to be more like Paper Mario.

In graphic style? That would be quite sweet!
I'd actually love that!

They should've waited until the 3rd version to make Maplestory 3D, so at least then they can have at least a lousy pun.

Considering the rate at which MMOs get sequels, we'd be waiting until 2020.

The F2P market isn't dominated by people willing to pay for $200 cards.
I also suspect that there are plenty of people out there who haven't gotten new hardware in 5+ years.

One of the strong selling points of Maple is accessibility.
Consider for a moment the fact that Blade and Soul's Minimum Requirements are higher than WoW's Maximum Requirements.
