Something to consider is the size of MapleStory. After over a decade, there is an enormous amount of content - both universal and GMS-exclusive - and accounting for every single factor becomes more and more difficult over time. While the hope is for everything to function correctly the first time, as a program issues will arise and be addressed appropriately. It's unfortunate when we must incur additional downtime to address issues, but what's important is that issues that come to light due to the dynamics of the playerbase are being addressed - not pointing blame over factors which are not always obvious from a testing standpoint.

well said, but something to consider is most of the people complaining on here are the ones who only have been here one or two years. they have no idea what they are talking about or the immense amount of content they have yet to discover. I personally have played since beta, and I would rather nexon take there time with this so the future updates wont have as many issues.

i have almost 10 years with my account, and i'm complaining, because i (at some point) thought like you, "take their time with this so future updates won't have as many issues" and 10 years later their updates have and incredible ammount of issues, so, we should just keep wishing that maybe in another 10 years they won't have as many issues i guess?

I do no tthink however they do this on purpose, and i'm sure they want and wish every patch goes live with a few - no bugs at all, and we all wish that, but when you make the same mistake over and over, maybe it's time to actually do something about it, make a test server again, less updates and actually try them internally for longer time, etc etc, because they are a company after all

not even BDO with their massive updates that made their world 30% bigger each time and all those stuff had this kind of bugs, and they are new, can't believe after 10 YEARS you still do the same, it hurts to see how you guys keep just throwing new content without testing and keep killing this game.

ITT: whiners and entitled players.

70% at least of all online games i play have problems patch day, at this point, i just expect it and don't play on that day. simple as that.

Now you're saying some useless information here now. I've been playing variety of games throughout my gaming experience and what you say cannot deny the fact that Nexon is not doing well at doing their job. Most of the time when there are delays and problems, they tend to notify players. Nexon doesn't really notify us about news and is mostly late in doing so. I've been told the delays of the maintenance is quite often from many many players and it has been continuing for long time. From that point you know they aren't trying to improve. People expect maintenance to finish in time, this is probably one of first game that people always expect a delay. Funny thing is, we're right all the time. I hope you know what that means, you covering for Nexon isn't going to deny the actual facts.

Totally agree, i've played TONS of games, and they actually tell you why it is taking so long, they are clear with players, maplestory has always done the same thing, just say they are trying to fix but that's it, if it takes 10 hrs they won't update often , and they need to fix that, i mean, they spam their facebook page with pictures, they should do the same here.

If they haven't learned how to patch their own game after 8-10 years, at least they have to learn to be clear with their players
