Simple Question, who here would participate in a real Maple Player VS. Player system?
Not the weird kill-the-monster-with-your-opponent's-name thing I remember seeing before in jMS or something that cost NX, but an actual run-around-and-hit-each-other game held at a certain map.
Obviously, they'd have to override the monster damage formulas with alternatives based on buffs so classes wouldn't become over powered. Warriors, for example, would deal a lot of damage because of their short range, while Hermits would deal less damage because they don't need to be up and close to their opponent.
I know for a fact that PvP is possible to code, Vana/Titan and Odin Source both have it. (Although it could be improved.)

I would once or twice, but I'd probably hate it and not do it again because knowing Nexon they would screw something up and make it buggy as hell...
If they somehow manage to make it good and decently balanced without to many major bugs I would participate and probably get owned by some insanely funded dexless sins who dispite nexons attempt to balance it, would still destroy me before I could do anything about it, pissing me off and making me quit after doing it less than 10times. Though I would fight my friends in it a lot just to settle a few old arguments of who would win in a fight and just for the bragging rights of course, until then I guess I'll just have to live with the fact that I can easily ks over half my B-list and guild...
Also, who wouldn't do Maple PvP if it was decently balanced?

Iunno who wouldn't, some people just don't like it. xP
More food for thought; would you rather a system that uses stats and gear for damage, or a system that uses class for damage. (That's to say, a level 10 warrior could do the same damage as a level 100)

Assuming Nexon didn't screw it up, a Mage's low HP would be compensated by A) Magic Guard B) their evasiveness with teleport.

It would be too hard to perfect PvP in Maplestory.

I'm talking about a real PvP System, not the screwed up one in Tai or Japanese Maple.

I know for a fact that in a private server there is something like that in the fm rooms but most abilities will not activate when hitting players (eg. combo attack doesn't work making saders almost useless). And it's really buggy not to mention that DKs are cheap when it comes to PvP...

I don't think Maple Story was really made with player versus player in mind.
Would take them forever to balance all the classes... And they'd probably end up disabling a lot of the skills like flash jump and teleport to make it even.

I'd say just leave the PVP to the private servers. I think MS is fine as it is now and that we dont need PVP. Its kinda what makes Maple what it is, IMO. PVP would change the direction of the game greatly.
And the question I always throw out in these topics:
If our Showa had to be nerfed for "age suitability" issues, then what's to say we can have PVP, in which players kill each other?
