that despite all the "it's not pay to win, srs, you can't get ANYTHING that costs nx besides costmetic items and pets!" there are still people with 20 slot bags from -- where else -- the cash shop, with nx.

    I didn't realize you need slot bags in order to become stronger.

    You sell the stuff in gachapon for mesos, use mesos for scrolled gear = stronger. Elementary my dear Chooz.

    Well, the bags certainly aren't cosmetic.

    You're still able to pay up to get items such as MVP buffs and dream defender entry tickets which directly gives you an advantage over other non-paying users.

    How does having it account bound not make it pay to win? if you spend money you get mvp. If you don't spend money you don't get mvp..

    Mvp only gives u some exp coupons, that not a big deal in terms of making u stronguer if anything t gets lvling faster and ppl who have mvp give 1,5x exp buffs for free to everyone in the map when casting it

    You are misinformed about what MVP gives...http://maplestory.nexon.net/news/21036/updated-introducing-the-maple-value-points-mvp-service

    Just make a suggestion to restrict accepting mvp rewards on reboot. Quite honestly, I get more of those 30 potions than any attack or exp modifier. So it really depends how much money you spend. It’s not pay to win because the people spending to diamond or platinum aren’t buying cubes since they can’t in reboot, the result of their spending on nexon cash results in them getting the mvp status.

    If it is p2w, it’s a very conditional form of p2w and even a chance game of p2w.

    Correct me.if im wrong but OP is saying reboot is p2w, so i explained him that reboot is free 2 play 100% and that u can progress twice if not 3 times faster there than on a normal server without playing as much as in a normal server and without spending a single cent on the game.

    I'm saying that p2w elements that should be forbidden or possible with some alternative slipped by as nx-only.

    So u get buffs and exp coupons thats not a big deal? O.o
    U know u can get a daily 100 watt/matt vuff for free right?
    Ure focusing on small things over the biggest issue in p2w, which is cubing, cubing give u a LOT of range, whereas a 30 watt buff doesnt give much of a difference
    Im my opinion complaining about this(cuz u need to pay a Lot and keep paying constantly to stay mvp) is quite irrelevant to the overal f2p reboot services this server offers.

    We're just saying that p2w does exist in reboot. It's not just about the coupons and MVP buffs allowing for exp gain to be higher, translating into gaining levels faster than the non-paying players of reboot. It's also the medals and titles giving stat. The free monster park and training center tickets. But most importantly the extra entries to Dream Defender, resulting in more coins for paying players and thus gaining arcane force faster than someone who is not MVP. Especially considering how long it'd take to farm those extra symbols with the drop rate nerf.

    I personally don't care whether it exists or not, but it's ignorant to claim it doesn't.
