Do you know how to get the VIP things to change my hair and stuff??

[Drinhkinn]

I think it may have to do with GM run events, but I don't know, i'v been wanting to know that as well.

If i'm gonna spend cash on changing my character's looks, screw taking chances of spending 10x what I have to because I always end up on something thats ugly.

Willing to bet you were still on Maple Island by that time?
It's alot more fun once you get out there, the starting area sure looks kiddy and cutish, but gets more serious later on. Orbis is a nice area , but when you reach Ludibrium... Whooooo.. Lego town, I was freakin out with the drinks I had that night.

[Lbelle]

got to level 17 and it's getting REEEEEEEEEALLLLLLLLLLYYYYYY repetitive and frankly boring :\ I've leveled in almost every spot imaginable for my level too, including pig beach. I'd like to continue, but it's just getting shittier by the second, hah.

Oh, and the you lose exp everytime you die crap makes me realize why I HATED FFXI so much.

[Drinhkinn]

Lol, i'v only died a few times once as I was a newb, and once on my cleric while taking airship, was attacked by balrogs. managed to survive 1 hit, but second hit killed me

Those buggers hit me for 1900+ dam a hit.

It's even shittier to die while on the airship because then you are transported back to the city you were at takeoff and have to pay your fare and wait again.

At least theres a cabin you can hide in. Wish I knew it existed before i got raped.

Anyhow, keep it up, once your level 21, you can start doing party quest in Kerning City. It gets alot more interesting.

Is There Like A Maple Story Windower?

I played this for a while a few months back, was a wizard thingy. It was cute but I found it rather tedious after a while, exp gets dull, quests are mainly "bring me 20 X." It also seemed to me that most of the people I met on there had the maturity level of a 12 year old, maybe I was just unlucky.

Can't be windowed, but your not locked in full screen either, you can alt-tab out. Or if theres a windower for it, I dont know any.

And about the maturity level, of course you cant expect much from other low levels, the older folks are much higher level. And the fact that i'm older than 90% of the playerbase, means I just HAVE to be a total jerk. I love it, so much pressure relief from beeing a goodie-goodie person in FFXI.

[Lbelle]

I was walking around someplace and this kid plopped 10k on the floor, then another 4k, and then started talking to me. I think he thought I was 12, so I just went with it. He said after a while hehad to go afk, and said, "afk=being away from computer ok?" and I was like, "Ohhh, ok!!"

It was hilarious. But he was really nice anyway.

Also, I'll try to get to 20 and see if it gets better. Thanks!

[Drinhkinn]

21 actually, cant start PQ at 20, level restriction >.>

To know where it is, just go to channel 1 in kerning city, look for the clusterfuck of players trying to form parties.


And like i said, who the fuck cares about a free game, be the evil-est you can be. I know I am 8)

BTW, what class are you? I found fighter type class to be mind numbing, but mage was kinda refreshing, also because you get alot stronger much faster than the other classes, and own higher mobs alot sooner. Helped alot, started hanging out in Ant Tunnel at 25 on mage. At 30 on cleric, saved alot of money, no more spending on hp potions.

[Lbelle]

I'm a fighter, maybe that's why I'm so BOREDD

Mage looks so fun T_T I might try that silk road if the PQs arent so fun

Most LAN centres here are flooded with 10-12 year olds playing Maple, hell, even my 9 year old cousin plays it. Then again, I know people in their 20s with mentality of those ages who are playing it too.

[Elemmire]

the fact you have to use internet explorer just to view the web page is an instant fail D:

[Devek]

I thought I posted on this earlier... but I must of passed out and not hit submit..

Anyway.. this game is very bad for your computer.. it uses something called "n-protect" to stop hackers (it doesn't) while at the same time making the sony rootkit look like child's play.

I don't trust a machine with maple story installed on it one bit.. I don't want to get into too many boring technical details.. even if the creators of the game are not malicious in any way, too many things can go wrong with user level processes playing around in IO :/

Before some shoots back with "you don't like it cause it stops you from cheating!".. we already cracked it wide open while bored at work.

[DragonCloud64]

Meh, i can't even register for the stupid game, i doesn't like my e-mail or some crap.

[SephYuyX]

Im a fan of Ragnarok, and a friend said this game was similiar-ish, so I tried it out a few months back. Worst decision ever, played for a day and it was just mind numbingly dull.

[boomhauer]

its a fun game. i got my fire mage to 70ish before i gave up on the game and began to play assasin. for the people who like mage look into assasin. later in the game its the strongest class out of all the jobs. very fast paced and can attack while jumping so it expands the leveling distance to another floor incrasing how much xp you can get. 3 assasins can keep an entire map pretty much clean while it may take a bunch of mage's to do that and if they party the xp per hour is insane.

edit: i forgot if you want to you can play in a window. first program to use is 3d analyze (download is http://www.3dfxzone.it/monitor/am/go.asp?url=106 ) and there is another one which slips my mind at the moment but allows you to then "encapsulate" the window so you can move it around the screen otherwise its stuck in the upper left corner like the old ffxi windower
