What's the point of releasing Cadena on the 29th, during the week, when the week before is Thanksgiving break is the week before(American thing).

    They always release patches on Wednesday.

    And believe me, it's good that they do, what with the inevitable bugs and unscheduled maintenances.
    Maybe, if we're lucky, we'll be able to actually play Cadena on the weekend.

    That's not even related to at all at what this person is saying. They want to know why it's not being released on thanksgiving break where all the school kids are off for a week and can devote all that time to playing Cadena had it been released on thanksgiving week.

    Just incase when they go on holiday, Nexon, themselves, won't even be remotely aware of the game being broken until they come back and if you're extremely into maplestory and cant live without it like I used to be, you'll become extremely frustrated if you find out there's a server issue that disconnects and crashes you randomly every 10 minutes or even before you get into the game. Last christmas + new years, for example. It's better to have less people complaining yet have the Dev team actually be working on a fix than to have a bug-infested game server on auto pilot for an entire week.

    Yeah, there's usually a big problem when they first put up big updates like this tbh. But i've been mapling for a while and they get patched way quicker these days. So, they probably want to fix everything up before the american GMs can go on break?

    I do wish Cadena were being released next week instead of the week after...but eh, Im used to it. Just means I gotta try and balance Maple with Studying for Finals (thanks Nexon)

    yep semester passed so fast, december is the end of semester, maybe theyre college students working in there as interns, so they know our priorities. (could explain the degree of bugs that have been happening)

    Ugh, Finals. The worst part of any semester by far. Cadena's timing is poor indeed. T.T

    It has been like that in every years for big patches in winter. So why should this one be exception?

    Because sticking to traditions doesn't mean improvement and smart company tactics.

    I feel like this isn't a big deal in the first place, you'll be able to play the class regardless.
