Well that can happen any time but it's going to take a long while for them to get a grasp of the market and deem it feasible to develop a completely new area based around Indonesian culture.

[ScherzoDeLuce]

err they should combine it with sea since sea has malays that do speak kinda the same language as indo

look similar but there's a huge different. some words exist in both languages but convey different meaning. Both languages have different sentence structure. And based on personal experiences as a malaysian who is currently studying in indonesia, i can say that, most indonesian aren't fluent in english, and a lot of them don't know english. So they need a separate server with indonesian language. I'm gonna try it out though, definitely will help me brush up my indonesian language.

So many people are mentioning that this should be integrated into MSEA, but nobody's saying anything about ThailandMS. Thailand's a part of Southeast Asia as well (granted, their version closed, but still)

I don't see how it can't be dual-language MSEA, like triple-languaged EMS atm.

they added chinese client to MSEA's gemini world back in 2009. but it was too much for asiasoft to handle. everyone know asiasoft isn't competent enough to handle a dual-language server, let alone a triple-language server.

Do we even know if it's asiasoft running IMS?

(from teaser page)
The mini game is a carbon copy of the EMS minigame (the Download Directly takes you to EMS' website).

I can't put my finger on it, but something is just SCREAMING that lytogame is running IMS

Duh, that trailer immediately reminds me about the video Nexon uploaded in Youtube about a year ago...



Speaking of which, I would like to see how IMS is going to translate "Master Thief Phantom" into Indonesia language. It will become "Guru Pencuri Phantom" and it makes Phantom sound like a criminal...

[maplefreak26]

The patch they are starting with is definitely not recent.

Lytogame was in charge of Ragnarok Online in Indonesia, which was hugely popular back in the day.

Having lived in Indonesia for a good while, I can say that there is definitely a growing gaming population with internet cafes popping up everywhere. (at least in Jakarta and the areas around it FWIW)
Not entirely sure if they'd be interested in MS though, I don't really see the 'P2W' model we have in gMS to work as well there, if at all.

[ScherzoDeLuce]

i'm glad it's not asiasoft.


no pre-big bang :(

[SoR0XaS]

Asiasoft probably couldn't handle IMS or else both IMS and MSEA would shut down.

what if we passed IMS our bugs instead?

[Takeoverkyle]

That's like America giving the indians smallpox in the balnkets. Let's ruin the game for them as well :)

How would google-translated Korean sound in Indonesian

Uhh..... he pretty much IS a criminal.

He may have been more justified in his actions than most, but laws are laws, and he broke them.
