Dear Maple Lovers, Again Nexon launched a new patch with a new Questline: The Goblin Castle. And again they ignore pure single players. You can only play the Goblin Castle as a "Party". Its upsetting me that they ignore ppl who cannot spend unlimited time in the game. For a PQ you need to have many time to find proper party members and to play. As an aged player i dont have unlimited time to play maple. So why does Nexon dont care about players like me? In my opinion it would not be a big problem to make many PQ accessable for single players. All you need to do is implement a Bot Function to fill the missing spaces in a party with computer/server generated players. Is it soo difficult to do? I dont think so. Also nexon can create new quest/storylines for both Players in the future: PQ-Lovers and Single Players. I know that the problem exists for me in many MMOG`s but some games care about the single players and create optional access for single players like Runes of Magic. I really like Maple Story because of its charm and the many friendly ppl i met. But its hard to play and get on with your char if you dont have as much free time as school kids or students. Nexon made 2 good solutions for single players: The Pyramid and the Dojo. Its accessable for both type of players. Why doesnt nexon continue this work.. Tell me maple lovers am i the only one whos upset? Or are there more ppl out there who share my opinion... Greets Sen

This doesnt look as much of a reason to be upset as it does a person rant by you. OT: It's because most of the players in the community are lower aged, So of course they target that group.

Partying is fun. And its not hard to find people to PQ with if you have buddies (I usually have 1 or 2 online all the time) and an active guild/alliance.

If it were meant for solo players High levels would go, solo, get massive amount of earrings and prices would drop to maybe 1mill each o_O

PQ stand for Party quest, this is a specifically designed quest for players to learn about cooperation and communication which is what Massive Multiple Online Games is categorized for, if you desire to play a game where it has a feeling of Online yet it isn't i recommend : 1.Final Fantasy XII 2.Dragon Age 3.Demon Soul These games are designed to give a Online feeling and even some mentioned above have online functions, while being able to play single player. Edit : what was said above i believe your playing the wrong game if your upset about Party quests being for Parties only.

What happens at the pyramid? oh right lots of people bot it :p The reason they call it a PQ is cause you need other people. If you can't find people to PQ with you just buddy people who can.

That would give all the higher people an advantage, as they can just constantly solo the boss & earn profits. While the lower level people have to party > disadvantage.

As a fellow "older player" who prefers to Maple alone, I've noticed this as well, but it really doesn't bother me.

What's so bad about the poorer people getting the earrings? Level 75 is the limit, right? I don't think a level 75 could solo the boss lol It's also sorta the storyline, as in the King is extremely powerful and requires multiple maplers to take it down. Shammos doesn't think 1 mapler could escort him properly, blahblahblah

[quote] Sensus : Is it soo difficult to do? [/quote] the answer to that is yes ... I bet they will mess half the game if they even consider this
