Closed We all want a merge
Comments
If you were referring to me, what I am trying to make clear for a few posts now is that it is objectively true there are a lot of players who want a merge. The belief whether a merge is necessary for community/gameplay is subjective, but the fact that many people want a merge is undeniably objective. I understand there are people who don't want a merge as well, that is why there should be 2 non-reboot servers catering to both groups. Catering to the nostalgia of still having your home server shouldn't be a priority in this decision, as there would still be no way to satisfy all the maplers with that sentiment. I'm sure there are maplers in all 5 of the underpopulated servers who would prefer to stay in a underpopulated server, yet keep their server name. There is no way to satisfy these people without keeping 5 underpopulated servers. Is that really the logical thing to do? Considering all the complaints from said servers? I know I would enjoy going back to Broa, but there are evidently more important things to prioritize, for my personal gameplay and the communities.
You also claim that in October that the majority of players went to Bera and that those who are in dead servers are people that actually want to be in dead servers. And if you don't want to be in a dead server, to bad so sad, get rekt. There's been 5 threads recently asking for a world merge (3 of them got merged into this one) and threads before, people are saying they want a world merge, people are saying that those in their dead worlds want a world merge. Of course this isn't an intricate perfect method to make an analysis of who the majority is, but we can take a comfortable guess. This is an issue where I believe if the majority want to play with each other it is best for the game, this is an issue that is logically directly connected to what the majority desires. Now it isn't a need to have the game at its best, but that isnt't much an argument
This is why I think charging nx for each character world transfer is a bad idea. Most people couldn't rationalzie such a cost. I know I wouldn't with all my link skills.
Just wait till we reach 20 pages or another thread is created.
I didnt say those that are in dead servers want to be in them, I said only those that got left behind are the ones advocating for a merge. Quote me correctly if youre going to quote me. as far as "too bad getk rekt", I dont say stupid **** like that. Dont quote that I said that, because I dont talk like that.
Did you not dismiss me saying "you shouldn't have missed it"? Hence the "too bad get rekt". I would agree with you, but this world transfer ended so badly, that I don't think anyone should be left in a world that are dead as these.
I didn't get left behind, I made the choice to stay with grazed after the first world leap.
If they're just going to merge worlds, leave it like an alliance. Or at least just merge the 3 alliance worlds and leave the servers still able to be accessed.
And I stand by it, you shouldn't have missed it. Creating a smokescreen with all these claims that bots and hackers will leave if there's only one server, that everyone will enjoy the game again, and using made up numbers just to hide the fact it's your own fault for missing the event that would've allowed you to be in a populated world. It wasn't by accident either that Bera became populated, it was general consensus, everyone was telling everyone to go to Bera. So, the playerbase has the fault as well for that. But in no way should Nexon have to accomodate those that chose to not participate or that weren't even playing the game during that time and missed it, especially with merging everything into an already populated server.
How is that different from saying "too bad get rekt" . The problem isn't that we just missed an event, the problem is if you missed the event, it left you in an abysmal world with no way to get your character out. If every server that isn't bera wasn't underpopulated we wouldn't have this thread. If I had missed an event, that last say gave a time limited item or whatever, it wouldn't leave me depressed enough to stop me from logging in.
I pulled up a number from the steam chart of the 24 hour peak, right now it shows it as 1574 players. How much bigger do you think the population if we included people who didn't just use steam launcher ,5x more 10x more? Do you really think we need as much worlds as we have now. Also, that monster hunting event, how well did that go?
I don't understand why you call it a "fault" of the player base to move to another server, the servers had a low population then, it was an opportunity to move out, going into Bera in this case was a logical reaction. And it wasn't during Christmas or Summer, alot of people missed it.
Nexon doesn't have to accommodate anyone, just with the population as low as it is, it would be wise to have only 3 worlds as it is.
Seems kinda extreme, but I get that point. Although you can't blame people for missing events, it would be logical for people who are taking breaks (shorter ones, not several year breaks) from the game to at least keep up with events, if anything. I play 3 different games (not at the same time; I switch between them every couple of weeks/months), and I keep up-to-date with all of them, or at least I try to. When I came back to maple at the end of May, I was salty that I missed out on the last nx transfer, wonderoid, and maplehood watch since the last time I played, but I understood that it was my fault for not keeping up to date.
So then, can we all come together and agree at most we should only have 3 non reboot servers.
It's better than nothing.
But we all (the majority, not just a very few people) understand that the best solution is just to merge all the worlds into Bera, also if a very few people want an empty server so bad then we can easily just merge everything into Bera (except Reboot and Scania) and then give people the option to move to Scania, so then watch how just a very few people move to Scania (all those people who didn't like Bera as a full one big world).
Also keep in mind, the most important thing is that those very few people who want a dead server, must be thankful for people like me and my friends who keep on wasting an insane amount of money (yes, because we can and our families are wealthy), so it's very very important to keep this in mind, because without people LIKE ME and my FRIENDS, those empty servers, no, the entire game wouldn't even be here.... because we all know what would happen if no one buy nx and spend $$ on this game.... so YES! you guys (the very very very few people who want an empty) must be thankful to people like me and my friends who wasted over 10k$+ in total (and continuing to waste more and more).
Sorry for my english, I'm korean.
Wrong, but it doesn't matter anyway, as many people have mentioned, this is an MMPORG game, it must have as many people as possible.
And therefore, your opinion is disqualified from the foundation.
watch out everyone, this guy has the authority to disqualify people from the foundation. You realize the number of players doesnt change whether there's a merge or not, for example, if theres 100,000 players total, distributed to their worlds, merging them all into one or three worlds wont add or decrease the 100,000. so "it must have as many people as possible" doesnt even apply to this. Secondly, an MMORPG isn't what you think it is, Massively multiplayer online role-playing games (MMORPGs) are a combination of role-playing video games and massively multiplayer online games in which a very large number of players interact with one another within a virtual world. which maplestory already does, it's the mechanics and gameplay that qualifies maplestory as mmorpg. You pick a class, and join the game. You can still interact with others. So what the game needs isnt a merge but more players if you want to say "needs as many people as possible."
