    This means nothing. The job posting could have been unfulfilled, thus cancellation of the project if nobody can progress to work on it. It was still in speculation. This is much better insight on whether it's getting an English release.

    kMS2 got english patch some months ago its not full translated but yea its not bad
    i guss its just test to see reaction then make GMS full version - polish the translate more

    or not sure if they just copy/paste that and host global and do on their own like GMS-KMS thing

    but considering all the issues with MS we have not sure its right time for nexon to make such move
    like if they ready with enough GM/team/server resources

    there would be no point in releasing a north american english version of maple story 2. the game would totally flop, it's play style has nothing in common with maplestory the original. i am attracted to maplestory due to it being a classic 2d side scroller that is updated to be current. if i wanted to play a 3d mmorpg it wouldn;t be maplestory 2 it would be like diablo 3 or something else entirely.

    lol please , you don't know if it would flop or not. The control scheme of the game is pretty similar actually , you play mainly with the keyboard . Just because it's not a side scroller doesn't mean people won't play it. Just because you won't doesn't mean others won't. Diablo 3 isn't an mmorpg either...

    Some games do better in different parts of the world you never know until it's released in that area and has been out for a bit.

    I don't mean to be rude but this is a really dumb argument in why MS2 will flop. All you stated was opinions imo and you arn't the majority of the fanbase that plays Global MS. Just bc you won't play it and you think it has nothing to do with MS does not mean it will flop. All that means is that YOU won't be playing the game. If you ever played KMS2 you would know the gameplay is more or less the same style as MS1 has. It's just in 3D format instead. It has a lot more community aspect in the game too than MS1 has which is a good thing. So please just shut it if you aren't going to bring in a good argument to why MS2 will fail In NA. You don't even know what a mmorpg is and you're stating like you know everything in the world of gaming. Diablo 3 is a hack and slash and basically a solo game. MMORPGS has a full community in itself and revolves team work.

    Exactly, this kid has to be joking. I've seen countless people hyped about this game coming over to NA.
    I know the game won't flop. As soon as it comes over, people are gonna go wild, I just know it.
    At least that is what my gut is telling me.

    Agreed. The world looks so big and fresh but some how nostalgic.
