Now im sure most of you are thinking, "not another one", but thats most likely because your American and don't give a damm about us, well thats how nexon is to us. Let me go into this in finer points. 1) Server checks, at AEST time, every wednesday there is a SC starting a 3pm. Now of course, nexon could start this at 7pm (2am PST) but they have to start it as soon as we finish school, not to mention all those unscheduled server checks.. 2) Hackers. Most of you havn't seen hackers lately, but during our times half the people online are hackers. And oh no, these are your ordinary hackers that sit in one channel, they change channels every minute, and kill the entire spawn in a matter of 2seconds. 3) 2x. Most are at 3am, no more said. And many other reasons... such as no gamecards in australia and new zealand for that matter Vote below if you want Nexon to give a damm about us, doesnt matter which, both 2 count.

No. We are able to play the game, and even buy NX via Paypal. It's the American version of the game hosted by Americans and for Americans. The fact we are allowed to play on the American servers is privelage enough.

If Nexon America did what you want the American players would be pissy rather than you.

It's a privilege, not a right, I'm from NZ and I understand how annoying it is, but they're a business, and there are exponentially more americans to please. To be honest, with the IP blocks for other countries, we're lucky we can actually play. You need to understand that even if customers meant anything to Nexon, which they don't, they wouldn't care about us. Also, about the game card thing, there just aren't enough players to merit putting them on the shelves, even if they are just plastic.

I don't really care about all this stuff. I live in Australia and I've been playing this game for a long time. You can still buy NX over the internet and it's only a few days of your entire life you can't play cause of server checks. It's not really that hard to find something else to do.

Yeah umm during the times I'm online I happen to see quite a bit of hackers as well. And since you're on at aussie times how would you know when most the hackers are online? As for the 2x, I assure you, plenty of US maplers suffer too, some of us end up having school/classes during the 2x quite frequently. The only times I can actually be on for 2x are usually weekends. And about the server checks, I agree that it's pretty unfair for you guys. This is probably the only point I really agree on, but hey, at has to happen at some point and obviously nexon is going to make it at those times because most of their players are from the US. It's not fair, but this is nexon so equality isn't expected.

Shush, I'm Australian and I understand. US = majority of GMS players. Logical choice, server check outside PST primetime. The end.

yes, i understand that they must put it outside of Americas main playing times, but it wouldnt hurt to start at 2am, so we could get a few hours of play before the SC starts
