Issues and Server Instability during DMT 7/4
Comments
lol poor you guys, some things never change at nexon... hahahaha
each 2x and DMT in the past few years was same google it
blame the " increased amount of players" yea right ... (who comes to GMS just for DMT and leave)
feels good to not be online and deal with all that notification spam and lag good luck to you all dealing with that
I really hope nexon would give a nice gesture for this ridiculous aggrevation..
just lag. well i think nexon was wrong when it chose to do dmt just 2 weeks after the big launch that was adele, and also after attracting so many players that came from the late MS2. they could certainly wait some more time to do the dmt event. right now and wait for the response from the administrators to see if we will not be left with this loss.

Unfortunately, so far we have no solution and only get unsubstantiated responses to support his ban.
But hey, it's his game and we can't do almost anything.
Imagine having an event that does not reward you as intended after players have sunk in many hours into the game in anticipation for it. This is essentially what has occurred in the DMT event. Again, players have invested time into gathering mesos to buy the cubes. Not only that, but players have stayed up late at night/midnight just to be able to participate in all three DMT events in anticipation that Maplestory servers will be unstable and that they would need to fight an unwinnable battle (aka the battle against server lag) just so they can use their cubes. I know of players who were only able to fit in 1 Black Cube every 3-5 minutes. I know players who were not even able to log on. I know players who were disconnected during the event and could not log back on. I know players who were unable to buy cubes in the cash shop during the first hour of the event. I know players that tried to discover methods to circumvent the issue of server instability (aka trying to change channels so that they can cube once per channel changed). Why should players have to spend even more time into a problem that is the fault of Nexon? As evidenced, this is not the only botched DMT event that has occurred, yet Nexon has to adequately address a single one. Nexon has wasted more of players times, in a game that already demands an unfathomable amount of time invested in order to progress. This problem is incredibly frustrating for many players that were trying to participate in an event that has significant impact on their gameplay and progression.
Being apologetic is not good enough to compensate for the amount of time wasted and the amount of anger from players that were generated from server instability. There are many ways to circumvent this problem, many of which are already obvious to Nexon, yet they continue to ignore this problem. I do not believe players are asking for a lot. Your simplest solution is to redo the DMT event for reboot servers and to actually MAKE IT WORK as intended. Making a playable game is the first and utmost concern for ANY game company, but this logic is commonly neglected by Nexon which is absolutely unacceptable. Many players and I only wish for Maplestory to continue growing and become successful in the upcoming years. Nobody wants the game that they play to become irrelevant and unplayable. Nexon, please understand that your players are loyal, but you should not abuse this fact and assume that they will stay regardless of how poorly you treat them. This is not ethical, and you know it.
1) Have all day (like Sunny Sunday) DMT so people can cube whenever they want and not all at the same time
or
2) Remove the blue messages and/or buff given from single and double tier-ups (nobody cares about these buffs and one can get the buffs for themselves during the event anyway).
Pretty sure even though servers might still be laggy, this would alleviate the complete server instability during the DMT events in Reboot world. Probably would also help to not have these events every 7 months and be on a 3/4-month cycle instead.
Have been accused of using hacking programs when it took nearly a whole 3 minutes for the laggy as **** servers to add the nx code to my account. I only had my browser and discord open. I have had this account for 12 ENTIRE years. not a single ban. no programs utilized. now this? are you SERIOUS??? who can i get in here for this? this is ABSOLUTELY INSANE . I SAVED FOR SO LONG FOR THIS DMT, PLANNED SO LONG FOR THIS DMT. AND NOW AFTER 12 YEARS, IM GETTING AUTO PERMA BANNED, AND COPY PASTED MESSAGES?

I am using hotel internet. Thats bad enough already. Its slow, I can barely run weeklys on it. Ive been doing mostly coin capping EVERY DAY on 6 chars since event started. Its takes FOREVER to do anything. DMT was bad too, codes i redeemed wouldnt register, I had to relog, cc, etc. Some chars would get stuck, so i would cube on chars with shared inventory, to get around being stuck in maps forever. And after ALL that, you accuse ME of hacking? Youve got to be ******* kidding me. One look into my account would have revealed what the problem was. This is disgusting.
Just give us DMT again and extend it for a longer period of time so we can avoid trying to cube and compete during the SAME ONE HOUR INTERVALS. As a long time player, I'm sick of all these PR apologies and excuses without any actions to seriously take player feedback into consideration. Maplestory is such a unique and nostalgic game for a lot of us, me included. It confuses me to no end why you guys so desperately try to tank your playerbase and make the experience so terrible for those of us who have managed to stick around. It's really really sad how the potential for this game was just wasted away by incompetent management.
What is the current status of compensation? If there will even be one. Has there been any talk for it?
