    Yea. I'm experiencing the same issues too "Maplestory have stopped working." After multiple attempts, I was able to get into the game. Not even flooded with people. There's no maintenance or anything like that. Occurs on a daily basis. I already changed my compatibility to win7,8, but it's still occurring. I get into character selection then it freezes/crash or when selecting NA/Europe screen, it freezes/crashes. I already disable my firewall. I don't use any anti-virus programs. Sometimes there so many random freezes/crash in middle of game. My graphics driver is well up-to-date.

    They need to fix this sh!t. Getting annoying af for several months.

    This happens to me, too. I report to customer support for more than a month about that issue.
    Sadly, they are convinced the issue is with my graphic driver being outdated or internet issue.
    I strongly believe the crash issue is not because of my graphic driver or internet issue.

    I might have internet issues but I had these issues when I played under EMS v1.17 and below and I never had these freezes/crashes like that.

    the thing is: wow isn't made by a gold digger company, like nexon.

    I have tried for past 5 days to log in. I either get to world menu or as far as the character menu in Demthos and game stops working. I'm frustrated.

    Chashes when you try to choose character
    If you manage to enter the game then at any time the game is paralyzed and crashed.
    IT'S A LUCK THAT YOU PLAY QUIET WELL.

    I was having the same problem all through Winter break (for my school, that's over a month long-). At first, I couldn't get past the region selection. Then I couldn't pick my server. And then I finally got to pick a server and a channel, but then it crashes. This is happening on both my old laptop and my brand new laptop.

    At first, I thought the issue was because my old laptop was, well... too old... and couldn't handle MapleStory anymore (I actually had to delete things off the old one because the storage was full and MS couldn't update when there wasn't enough room). I only made it to the region select section after I logged in with the old laptop. Then I just gave up after like 5 tries.

    I was getting a new laptop anyways in case the old one eventually dies (this thing is like over 3 years old at this point tbh. It's gonna happen sooner or later). As soon as I got the new laptop, literally the first three things I downloaded were: a new default browser (because who wants to use Internet Explorer these days?), the Sims 3 (plus World Adventures and Generations expansions), and MapleStory. I wasn't able to play for a while because I had my hands tied with other things, so it wasn't until January 13th that I tried launching it on the new laptop. Like the old laptop, it froze in region selection. On the third try, I got to channel selection and as soon as I moved my mouse, it froze again. Fourth try: Managed to click on a server, then crashes. Fifth try: I managed to select a channel and then it crashed (I actually recorded that session to show my friend what was happening when I tried to get in). Several tries after, it just froze every time I picked a channel. I just gave up and went to see if anyone else was having this problem and here we are.

    I'm annoyed that MS isn't working for me and that there isn't much of a solution, but I'm glad I'm not the only one with this issue. I really am curious about what could be causing this problem and wonder if it's just a bad patch. :/ Another friend of mine was able to get in just fine (she tweets a lot of pictures of what she's currently doing in the game) and she isn't sure why it's happening either. She also noted that there were a lot less players than usual whenever she got in... I haven't tried again lately due schoolwork now, but whenever I have the time, I'll see if I can get on or not after 2 weeks since the last time...

    When i sent nexon a ticket about this, they said it could be a number of issues, wireless connection may be cauaing it, drive updates may be needed, compatibility and to make sure minimum specs are on the cpu or laptop. But i also searched around and people online have mentioned it being due to the region merge. When the screen to select region, wait like 30 seconds then choose, it usually works. If you try to click to fast ot may be what is crashing the game.

    Its the patch. Its bugged, too many processes to read and execute, they probably dont know it's the patch. Only clean and up to date laptops less than a year old will not have issues.

    I downloaded more than 10gb to start playing, more when I enter the game and I choose the region, soon after it crashes and closes, this has been happening since the last update. I hope it gets fixed right away, and from what I see it's not just me anymore with many other people too. Please NEXON, do something urgent!

    The foundation of the problem is the merging of the servers (europe and nexon america)

    I would suggest installing windows 7 and trying it out using that operating system
    Linux or mac wont have those problems.

    I really think all this is not worth playing, having to change the operating system, in case NEXON had to see all these complaints and try to do something, the strangest thing is that a friend who lives in another city plays normal and I can not ... I'll wait, or is it because I downloaded my game for STEAM?

    The thing is the more they add in the patches, the more specs are required to run the processes. So with every major update, a better quality of hardware and software is needed inherently. Even new laptops bought in stores may have issues because they're factory settings, gaming laptops are customized for these types of changes that patches bring.

    For example you'd have no problem playing old maple story pre Big Bang right now because it had less content than now in the patch files
