Every day Hot Time events and 2x? No mention of the familiars issue? What the-

[FallenStar]

still nothing about the hacking... P.S. i can't even get into the game right now, it's telling me that server is off -_-!.... NEXONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

[Justin]

Well played, Nexon. Well played. They're going to play the "shove it under the rug and forget about it" card.

This is the exact same update they announced and scheduled weeks ago.
It has nothing to do with what's been going on. It's a scheduled update.

[yeahsureokuhhuh]

heck, i'm just happy there's finally a server maintenance

edit: about the obvious hacking issues, everything is news to nexon (or at least the twitter account). they came back today and had no idea what has been going on for the past week+

While this is generally true of a "scheduled" maintenance, it seems quite extreme... I'm pretty sure they were swayed by recent events, and this is their way of saying "we know, but we can't/won't do anything about it - however, here's some more stuff in the cash shop".

[Icho]

Wow just when I thought there was a little hope left...I guess they REALLY think that its not that big of a issue.

They took down mabi and worked on it during their supposed "break" but they cant take down maple? even when they are back?

All hope is officially lost now....well from me it is, I'm sure for most it was never there.

Well played, Nexon. Well played. They're going to play the "shove it under the rug and forget about it" card.

Looks like they're trying to bribe us to forget.
Look at that CS sale.

You'd have to be an absolute idiot to think any part of this had even the remotest connection to the hacking.
It's been scheduled since mercedes was released.

I know, but I really expect something else entirely (Too depressed about the hacking and the drama it's making). I'm interested on knowing the daily hot time events prizes, if any.

[Chicocl]

I just quitted this morning after getting my corsair deleted and started playing dragon nest Sea but those hot time events look so tentative but i'll be strong i will come back when the phantom is out or never...

I assume you're referring to NXWatch stuff? Yes, that is true.

However, what about Everyday Hot Time events? Gifts for players, etc.? As far as I'm aware we haven't heard of this being planned (in the data or otherwise). It might have been, but it seems unlikely.

Same goes for the daily 2x (which we did not have the first half of "Winter Break")

You have a point, but it's still pathetic nexon has said absolutely NOTHING about the current ordeals.

[Shinryuji]

anyone have any idea whats being given out in the Hot Time event stuff?

[PeePeeAyeDeeKay]

Name changes and world transfers will not be processed during this maintenance.

Whyyyy.... >.>

It's gonna be 3(or 4..) weeks of my IGN not changing sigh...

.. last time they said they processed all, they sure didn't process my Scanian ones.. and a bunch of other's..

[Icho]

Probably nothing that grand, I mean if its daily all I would expect would be Legend coins, SP / AP reset, some trait things and that stupid envelope that gives fame.

but then again I could be wrong...did this happen in KMS?

No offense taken but keep in mind working on the game isn't the responsibility of one sole person. :)

I wish these things didn't happen.. at least to the extent it does. Sigh.

It includes things like testing the issue then identifying how it exists, make a patch to fix the issue, apply the patch, test and the loop continues if the test fix didn't work, etc.

Via Twitter, but I'm shocked that nothing was said on the forums.

Everyday Hot Time will be weird...I'm honestly just thinking there'd only be things like scrolls and such.

Why would you have heard about a surprise having been planned? Nexon doesn't announce surprises. They're server side so they wouldn't be in any data extractions. And why in the fucking hell would they give this as a response to massive hacking and duping? Just because those have been the most pivotal things in players' live's for the past few doesn't mean Nexon gives a rat's ass about it, let alone enough to randomly throw events at.

This is the exact same crap they've been planning to run. Verbatim. This has nothing to do with anything. It's just what they had always planned to do for this specific update and this month's events.

Cash Shop update (new): 1 NX Nebula Conductor (weapon cover)

For only 1 NX? Easiest chance to get level 30+ Charm ever?
