Pink Bean is certainly one of the more quirky playable characters to play as with funny-cutesy skill animations. That having been said, there really is no general value in keeping the little guy around. PB provides no real innovations in MS game mechanics, and his playstyle tends to grow stale rather quickly.
Having PB around as an event is perfectly fine, but let's not have the little guy overstay his welcome.
This guy gets it. It was fun while it lasted, but was otherwise horribly boring to play. I've never seen a single person who hit 200 on their PB during the event who said "wow that was fun I hope they make these permanent". Rather, most of what I saw was "OH GOD I'M FINALLY DONE WITH THIS NIGHTMARE"
Player gms dont work, period. Even the most trusted individuals always seem to cause issues once they get even a taste of power. I would like to point out that the mwlb didnt shut down due to info leaks but that program was in fact shut down due to abuse of power, one of them spent hours spamming smegas on scania.
As in they dont expire from your inventory for the time being. As we are all aware, theres quite a bit of voth client and server sided lag that is happenimg at the moment which is a cause for concern as 2x exp events are being hosted. As it stands i frel that players are veing pressured to fight yhrough the lag and train in order to utilize the coupons before they expire, which in the end backfires as from player accounts and my own experiences sometimes the lag actually causes you to get less exp from the 2x event even with all the multipliers you have active. Dont get me wrong, i'm extremely gracious for the 2x events, however at this time it just doesn't seem like its appropriated to host them with the current amounts of lag.
If the consumables being made permanent isnt a viable option, the. Id like to at least throw onto the table having them extended by at least a couple of months to give you guys time to get the servers into a more playable state during 2x exp so we can thouroughly enjoy and utilize the bonus multipliers that we've been given.
This is what happens when you fire the CM who is the only person who has a brain AND plays the game.
it's not the teams fault that there's a lack of communication right now, until we get a new cm it's going to be hard to properly relay our wants and needs to the Maplestory team. Oneletter and Saygo are doing as much as they can to fill in for the time being, but you need to understand that these forums aren't their main priority, Oneletter is the head CM and Saygo is the Vindictus CM. We just need to be patient and wait for the position to get filled, since it recently disappeared of the careers page either they've found someone or they've just begun the interview process
