Maple Memo: Global Migration Update
Comments
2. GMs are outsourced. For all we know, they're in India.
2. i didn't know that.
Q: How would EMS's Rebirth Flames and Additional Options be affected by the Migration?
A: Rebirth Flames were removed. Additional Options will be kept on items that already have it. However the Additional Options system will not be implemented in GMS.
Q: Will the EMS staff be working for GMS now or will they be put on other projects?
A: The EMS staff will not be working on GMS.
Q: Will GMS receive some world mergers in the near future? This is based on the conversation about Luna.
A: There are no plans at this time, or in the immediate future, for this sort of world merger. We are not completely ruling it out, though.
Q: Are any of the merged GMS servers located in the EU? Are there plans for this?
A: Currently, there are no GMS servers located in the EU, which is why we notified all EMS players regarding joining the world closest to your current region. We are not completely ruling out the possibility of servers being in the EU in the future.
Q: Will EMS old event items return, such as Dutch Kingsday or Piazza di Spagna, German beerfest ?
A: There are no plans right now to bring them back. However, in our future content and event planning, we will look into these EMS specific events to see which ones we can bring back. In short, it’s not out of the question and we want to include more global/international events as part of our event planning.
Q: Will there be a Reboot server in EU?
A: There will not be an EU Reboot server on Day 1 after the migration, but we are planning to add an EU Reboot server in the near future. We do not have a specific date at this time, and will provide everyone an update once this date is known.
Q: What happens to the rankings?
A: Any In-game rankings will reset. We’re planning to display website rankings on the Global MapleStory website. Rankings may change from what they were previously since only migrated users will be on the rankings.
Q: Adjustments to the language filter?
A: We made adjustments to the language filter during GMS v177 update to be less restrictive during normal chatting. We plan to make more adjustments during the next game update.
Q: Will we be adding other language sections to the forums?
A: Potentially, based on population needs. We have non-English language sections on some of our other titles as well that have localized versions of their game.
However, I'm still curious about what will happen to the guilds. Will they be completely wiped or will the contribution and level just reset?
Opening post of this thread says " Your community data such as Friends list, Blacklist, Guilds, and wedding information will be reset."
That means guilds will be disbanded.
I have the same e-mail for GMS and EMS... How does it affect me?
Characters with the same name... How can be displayed on Rankings?
If we put the events at 10 pm we can not do it, we go to bed.
2x events in EMS always have been between 16.00-20.00 CET which is when most European players are online. With eventually Double Miracle Time from 20.00-21.00. Also we had spell fever times from 14.00-16.00 and 20.00-22.00. The time of 16.00 is 8am PST (winter time) and 7 am PST in (summer time), Spell fever time will therefore even be at 5am PST.
During these busy times and especially at events It's good decision to have GM's available online. To be able to help out players who need helps or when there is a problem with an event not working correctly to immediately notify the right persons to fix it as soon as possible. Also patches and maintenances usually are wednesday early in the morning CET (night time PST), will these times stay the same (so we don't lose out on a whole day of playing a week) and will there be support available when something goes wrong with a maintenance or patch?
So will Luna and in future an European based Reboot have their own GM's (preferrable European based) or will they be covered by the current GM's of GMS which already have a very hard time maintaining the current GMS servers.
Because right now all the 5 lvl 250's are #1 and the ranking is kinda backwards. Would love to get my #1 spot back after almost 2 years of hearing "they're working on it".
Thanks for any answer
