Switching between accounts and regions easily
Updated as of 24.02.2017
First of all, I was aware about the ending of support for direct launch as it was described in the news 10 days ago from today:
maplestory.nexon.net/news/20725/maplestory-direct-launch-ending-march-23
As I see, it feels it's even more complicated and longer time to switch between accounts or between regions using the Nexon Launcher.
It's simple to do so using the Desktop Launcher (Direct Game Launch) by being able to return to the Region Selection Screen and using the In Game Login Screen.
As a player who uses both direct launch and nexon launcher, I believe it will hurt my ability to swtich between accounts and/or regions quickly and easily.
I would like to ask to consider adding the
Back to Login Screen/First Page/Login Page button in order for players like me to be able to switch accounts quickly and easily after launching the game client from the Nexon Launcher.
This is good for players who own an old PC with slow performances (ex: 2GB RAM) who switch between accounts/regions for many times and it takes time for the game client to be loaded for them.
After launching the game / disconnecting from a character for changing one, the first screen to appear to players will continue to be the World Selection page, but simply the Back button (next to the Quit Game button) will be included.
For me and other players have multiple accounts for the game - please allows these options and we will not have the close the game client and relaunch it just for doing these switches of accounts and/or regions.

Login Page (available today only using the Dircet Launch, but not Nexon Launcher)
Thank you for your attention.

41 classes and only a maximum of 40? That seems very grasping-at-straws of a thing to complain about. Not to mention that you would need two accounts for your Bishop and Hayato anyway, as you can't run two characters on the same account simultaneously.
And if Nexon thinks that removing the direct launch will somehow stop hackers from switching accounts or even multi-clienting, they're wrong.
It's not really "not allowing", it's just "not benefiting"; they don't have to explicitly deny them service, but they don't have to cater to them either.
That having been said, I really don't have an opinion on the subject myself.
This is why I preferred the Desktop Launcher for many times.
Do they even play this game over at Nexon?!
Anyway, I'm going back to the desktop launcher for as long as I can. It's amazing how Nexon wants our money but jumps through hoops to make us hate this game more and more.
This is really not comfortable to switch accounts/regions right now when we are forced to launch the game using the Nexon Launcher.
I believe players should reply and tell their opinion regarding this even more for this to be seen as high prioritiy to handle.
It's user experience for those who use to switch regions/accounts!
