Not to mention the recent surge in players causing the server to lag like hell, everything you do has a delayed response! Can't play any combo class in peace.
What bad xp are u even talking about? Experience playing the servers or exp to level up. If its the latter idk what drugs u r on i see nothing wrong with it. It's way way better than last time. Bots help with e boss which is the way f2p players earn their mesos. Without them we will be eating grass. If u have a problem with them stealing your map to lvl up just go to star force to train. It gives even higher exp anyway
The most funny thing is you should pay 10000 mesos to report hackers then you can get 9000 back if success at the beginning of CMS. This leaded most of the Chinese players leave.
I think almost all Chinese players would agree that CMS is the worst. If Chinese players who want to play this game and go to some bbs to get some advice, the first advice would guarantee to be "DON'T PLAY THAT TRASH CMS". The collective memory and eternal topic that shared by all past and present Chinese Maplestory players is that "how the trashy Shanda Group(now Shulong, same trashy) ruined this game". In fact, "CMS is trash" is almost like a kind of political correctness among Chinese players. You can keep silent but if you say something good for Shengda/Shulong, you are likely to face a shitstorm. Though I‘m not playing the game now, I still want to ask GMS and players from other servers for a favor: despite some contradictions we might have on the level of politics or something else, at least don't reject Chinese players in your server actively if they do not offend you first(of course fxxk hackers, they ruined CMS as much as Shengda/Shulong), because we all love the game but CMS is completely unplayable.
I didn't even know cms existed until today but I'm friendly to anyone who doesn't bot in reboot. We have guilds dedicated for players for don't speak English like Hispanic, Chinese, Brazilian, etc. So no one has to feel alone in the English version.
I think my saddest memory on GMS was back in probably 2007/2008, there was a weird server-sided glitch where some people's characters became immune to damage. I was playing me level 40ish spearman and had this happen. I used this opportunity to venture down Ludi's clock tower just so I could get a screen shot of me sitting on the benches before Papulatus. I got my screen shot and on my way back up I got banned for about 4 days due to "hacking." After I told them what happened they said "you exploited a glitch so you're still banned." I was pretty upset lol.
Tbh exploiting a glitch shouldn't be punished that harshly. I'm ok with rollbacks(to an extend), but punishing players for the game's mistakes isn't right.
Dude the same thing happened to me. I used the time to level in an area that was normally too dangerous and got a level or 2 before getting banned for a few days. I didn't understand what happened and thought someone hacked my account to put a cheat on it just so I'd get banned.
I don't remember an immunity do damage, but I do remember mage's doing max damage. We and my gal friend started killing green monks and some chief bandit was like wtf!? We didn't exploit it much doing boss's though we just decided to level up mages tell it got fixed. Funnest bug ever.
China is known for having the biggest whales in the world and are actually willing to pay ridiculous amounts of money to be the best in the game. You can see these things in other games that are famous is China. These incredibly ridiculous tricks to get them to pay for in-game stuff is way more normal there than anywhere else.
It seems to me that in their country almost mmorpg are cheap ie. "Altea Gacha Box" in Dragon Nest that can cost you a couple of bucks in North America and Sea Server is just a Daily Freebies for them
@@thirtisankwich Korea would almost definitely have more whales than GMS and Msea simply because they have a bigger playerbase and more dedicated players since it seems like the developers actually care rather than in GMS and MSEA where server lag makes it unplayable at times. But proportion may not necessarily be the case, and they definitely wont have as many whales as CMS. But in most Chinese games, even outside of maple, they're almost always extremely p2w because a lot of Chinese players are willing to spend to progress faster/further.
Exactly this. I know a guy in bdo hes from China but lives in Canada now. He spent 2k usd everyday for a month during the height of the corona pandemic on the game and said that stuff like that was normal lmao other guild members had spent 80k etc etc. China is wild lol (there's a clip of him showing his steam transaction history to prove it btw)

I remember hearing something like in CMS when xenon was released they had a a "battery" system that was exclusive to CMS. basically what it was is that when ur battery ran out of fuel u could no longer play the character or something like that and u had to pay to refuel it or wait a day.
As a 10 year player in CMS, CMS is the worst server. One thing you didn't mention so much I believe. Every1 hacks in CMS. The real situation is if you don't cheat, you won't even be able to farm any mob. Because the hacking software will automatically block the mobs from other players, which is super disgusting. I still remember there was a very famous guide in CMS, because all members in that guide don't cheat. You have to believe, people are actually getting famous in CMS because they don't cheat. No need to mention those meso studios. They hack to farm mesos, some of them even have their own hacker team to program cheating software. They used to sell mesos like 2 USD for 1B. I believe that is the reason why the CMS rate is sooooooo low, because every1 can get sht load of mesos from those studios, and the price is super cheap.
Korea, Taiwan, China, Japan, Global (+Europe), SEA There was also brazil and thailand at some point but those closed afaik. Korea is the most successful one (obviously) with korea maplestory still being one of the most played games in korea currently. The kms side of youtube has quite a few streamers and youtubers with 300k subs or more and 5k-10k viewers when streaming. It's worth exploring if you want some non-gms content and don't mind the language barrier.
Hey, I see my clip. I play cms for a decade, botters is the deep reason why they nerf so much, there is still gap between botters and manual players, sometimes they even renew hack method, like they turn dmg into 1 to cause huge lag to force other to disconnect. In addition, cms sometimes nerfs the stat of certain medal or title, or makes some permanent cash equip reward expirable. Yet official is working for the botter issue as well, if u check their announcement, they are now banning those botters periodically.
Nice quick review of CMS! CMS not only nerfed everything, and because of that, many players are lazy to train the character and buy hacking programs, that's what makes the CMS so terrible. Their reason of them is usually "Why would I play MapleStory without hacking? " Not to mention bots, nowadays the hackers including Dark Knight and Dual Blade are abusing V skills. You might think report would be useful, but there's no report option. And because of that, many players reported they're falsely banned by server, as the ban is mainly issued by the server instead of GM. I'll try to see if I can record few videos about current hackers. And BTW, the logo you used it incorrect - it's the logo of Pocket MapleStory in China operated by Tiancity, not the actual CMS operated by Shengqu Games (see my profile photo as reference).
Hey, I've been thinking about getting into Mayple Story, and I've been wondering something. Is there a way to play it single player?

maplesea had the same server-merge problem when i rejoined for a bit, but so many servers merged it won't be realistic to give so many slots into one server. no idea when this happened but needless to say i was shocked
TMS reboot is pretty bad too , did 1 month of commerci , 0 Sweetwater drop . if u want to cube gear u have to use "anima cube" it cost meso instead of consuming a cube , the chance of getting def% mp% and such worthless stat is incredibly high and it cost so much per cube and the price will increase per roll . There's also another type of cube available on the store , login reward or event , but im not sure about the difference. solo progression is certainly possible but it probably require massive rng , im very close at beating first cra boss but it all thanks to the fact that i got 2 line boss damage on Japanese weapon and beating easy cygnus and julieta to acquire empress set , i cannot possibly imagine soloing is possible before julieta exist . btw Japanese weapon from madman ranmaru is very rare too . ive only gotten 1 since ive ever being able to kill ranmaru . im not sure about how gms works , i cant play it on my region . ALSO , no flames on for gear drop too , thats huge
my friend once invite me to a cms private server, i was amazed by how so many things were difference, you can buy 20 star scroll on auction house (although expensive as heck, and its impossible to star normally), there is this weird things that increase your damage range limit but its buy through nx (its private server, nx is free) and all those stuff. Big brain me never did a mental transition of these cases over to the normal server where you have to pay things that is brought through nx... At least the server i played have active GM catching bots 030~
MapleStory Brazil (BMS) was held by a company famous for their p2w games and cashgrab habits. The game updates were pretty rare because the company (LevelUp Games) just kept updating the cash shop and the cash shop only for a long time. After over 1,5 years of not a single content update and just the cash shop updates every 3 days, people started giving up until the server finally died without ever even releasing the 4th job.
dahora ver um BR aqui kkkk, joguei muito pouco do BMS, joguei ele pela primeira vez 1 ano antes dele fechar de fato (sem terem anunciado) e voltei faltando 4 meses pra fechar, anos depois descobri o quão falho era aquele server e os bugs bizarros que tinha (por meio de vídeos antigos) PQP. Mas se não me falha a memória a gente teve 4th job sim.
As a former CMS player who played CMS for more than a decade, actually I (and also almost all of the CMS players) feel CMS becomes nothing but trash so as its company. Last year I went to UK and tried GMS, after a hour playing GMS, I believed that I could totally give up CMS. Nothing worth to waste time and money on CMS at all. And actually I really enjoy my new experience in Scania with my friends, although my character is not so powerful (also I'm really lazy about leveling lol), I reach a stage that I could never reach in CMS, see beautiful scene in Arcana, save many beauties in my salon (well CMS has no salon at all which made me really angry about CMS), have bought a lot of beautiful outfits. I never regret that I gave up CMS and choose GMS.
My favorite moment was when I was still new and the premium surprise style boxes went on sale but they botched the sale and were selling 30 boxes for like 1k nx and I just happened to be there to buy some not thinking twice that they were incorrectly priced. I just thought they were being nice
Being a below 18 year old gamer in China just got worse. Now the government tells them to only play like 2-3 hours a week, you only get to play in the weekend
Hey man, I played in CMS for 8 years before I AFKed around 2013 so I didn't get a chance to experience the worst starforcing system among maple servers, but I must say that ENTIRE contents in CMS were terrible for those who simply wanted to enjoy maplestory. CMS nerfed drop rates of equips and mesos greatly, so it was almost impossible to farm normally as we can do in other servers. Gacha and RMT are only available ways to get good gears and survive in high level maps like Arcane River. One of our most porpular jokes was to guess which good and interesting contents released from other testing servers (like KMST) would be nerfed or removed after they landed in CMS. Now I'm back to maplestory in GMS and I can tell that anyone who used to stay in CMS will never consider going back there after they get access to other servers.
Hi, I am current a GMSR player and just experienced that terrible DMT time for both weekends (the first one and the one after "code optimization"). However, when I thought back how I played CMS in (in certain months of) 2016-2017, you knew what, that is almost how I felt every single day at that time period, the severe lag caused by too much hackers which captured ALL the channels of certain map (usually the map with high-level monster at that time), I needed to go to boss or dojo strictly after the maintenance to avoid the severe lag.
Mainland Chinese localizations have always done things there own ways. Anyone remember Audition Online? Rather then letting players buy clothes directly from the shop, the game force quits the player to a web browser to buy their clothing. The reason behind this is assumed to be for ad revenue. This is infuriating for private server programmers because basically Chinese servers are the only servers that have files made public to start their own server, which means programmers must program the server to redirect to another site for players of the private server to buy clothes, or manually and painstakingly program the game to allow in game purchases.
i dont think it is worse, but in my country we had the BMS (brazil maple story) and man... Its was shutdown in 2011 - and for a reason. The economy was totally broken due to meso hack, everything costed billions. The server was very late in content, only one world, and the version was mess, for example we had 4th job but no Horntail (how do you get the skills which HT PQ is needed?? You don't!), not to mention, bugs, lag, crashes, bots, etc.
Eww thats horrible. Currently playing in jms and we are only getting 8 character slot first and expansion slot cost about 18usd. Tried to play at reboot server but theres hardly anyone playing on it in japan which makes it really difficult.
Shulong, which is the proxy of this Chinese server, is so notorious that we all call it dog because their tolerance for hackers and deduction for game rewards. You fund 20k rmb (3k ish usd) can't even fight lucid. I was a CMS player, but they are just soo bad that there is no point to play at that server at all. No idea why there are still new player want to return this hell smh.
As a former CMS player, I’ve got something to share with u :) CMS is a special server, Nexon found Shanda Corp. as its agent in China (now the agent changed to Shanda’s subsidiary Shulong, I’ll use ‘SL’ below as abbreviation). Nexon won’t interfere with CMS’s operate as long as SL gave a proportion of its income to Nexon. In general, CMS was a delicate server at that time, players enjoy the time when they adventured in Maplestory accompanied by their friends. In 2000s CMS was one of the most popular games among my generation and of course, it’s one of the precious memories in my childhood. However, it’s commonly admitted that after the ‘Big Bang’ update in 2010 everything changed. Shanda became greedy since then, and ‘pay to win’ gradually became the game’s moral. In general, there are two main criticisms to the server among CMS players. The first one is SL’s negative act against hackers. In previous years the hackers captured almost every map in all channels. They even formed an industrial chain that some people make money off of it. Hackers obtained a huge amount of mesos and sell them or use them to buy cash items, thus raised the market price. Hackers make the server literally unplayable. The company acquiesced in the situation because the hacker group did do contribution to SL’s revenue. There is another conjecture that they didn’t have effective means against hackers. The second one is the SL’s attitude towards welfare. In short, it deleted most welfares that make people get stronger easily without paying. Besides, it added other ways to get those welfares only if u pay a considerable amount of money. One thing that can't be ignored is the existence of merchants. They use arbitrage strategies in the condition of information asymmetry and economies of scale. For rare items, they completely control the supply. So here is the plight of CMS players. They are being exploited by Shanda Corp., hackers and merchants. If u want to play the game normally, u find it hard cause the existence of hackers. If u want to strengthen ur character, u cannot get the basic leveling-up welfare cause they’ve been deleted. Now u can only choose pay to win but RNG is bad in CMS (as u can see in this video they even weaken the success rate of starforce) and merchants monopolized the market. CMS players have their judgments, they’ve criticized Shanda Corp. for years. Almost in every BBS u can see such opinions. But the reality failed them and SL never changed fundamentally. In recent years, with the development of technical means, some players got the chance to TMS and GMS, but most players still stuck in CMS due to the language barrier. As years went by, CMS players grew up, having their family and job, leaving less time and energy to this game. But they treasured memories of the old times and this game. Be generous to CMS players cause they really love Maplestory even in such a dilemma, no matter how time changes.
i dont want to comment this,but i only one thing that i want to say is i played maplestory in cms since 2005-20007 these years. i REALLY miss old school,with friends,and that's only one unique system in cms is about rings and it was very stronger ring in old days everyone can get it ,the ring sell in shop for(20,000) meso. 2MATT 2ATT with 50hp 50mp, 5 moving speed . you can have 4 of these rings .the ring rq lv is 0 , you can own 120 moving speed in Character any LV . after 2007 oct that patch the ring is finally removed by Korea nexon, i used have fun in cms ....
I still remember when they introduced the TMS ( Maple Trade Shop) to Global, there was essentially a duplicating glitch, people dropping Chaos Scrolls like crazy in the FM entrance. 😂 those where the good old days.
the main reason i heard is that they are too many cheat players in Chinese sever. You know they treat maplestory like a afk game. They bought some plug-in and just leaves their account to level-up by themselves. This can totally destroy the experience of other players. By the way, CMS never block or punish those players. That's why we called it "Trash Company" and i totally agree with it.
I know this is out of place, even Dragon Nest Online in China is weird, they love creating OP equips which is not in the game actually and hurting the game itself
did u hear about the guardian event msea is having right now? it makes starforce success 2x and destroy chance halfed. everyone is walking around with full 22 stars now
not sure if any of these are true now since I tried CMS in 2007, and it was pretty much the same as GMS except all the cash items are permanent including pets. Which I was really jealous about
Msea is some what almost similar to Cms in terms of server but i guess Cms at least creates a vip server whereby Msea doesnt even care abt the players satisfaction some people even cashed in and the server rolled back like tf ?
I'm just going to use this as reference for when I'm about to complain again...because it could end up becoming *so much worse* then what I'd ever expect.
TMS gives you 48 free character slots and you can obtain free legendary potential scroll through monthly quests called “happy day” which is very nice. Also, our cash items are with no time limits. Quite nice huh
In term of server stability, Msea is kinda bad, there 30 channel in one world but only 6 of it is “stable” while the other just straight up 299-900 ping filled with bot ( can’t blame them they give us cheap cubes)
Is it me or GMS is super laggy lately? and not because maintenance. I started playing again a month ago and all was fine, then like a week ago i started lagging pretty hardso often, i can't play with my kanna because she crashes me :(
Pro tip for Chinese players get a VPN, learn English, make a Gmail acc, download GMS and enjoy a capitalist style game where hard work can get you far ( in reboot ) and get to stepping. Oh and that will cost you 22000 yen for the advice what will be your preferred payment method .
This is why I left CMS, and I was playing CMS in Australia. Well GMS is way better than CMS. I remember the time when Tyrant first released, a white clean thief cape cost me almost $300. Sad, isn’t it. You know what I mean. Nice video!
Remembering back how many times I boomed my equip, what if the starforce rate in CMS is ACTUALLY the programmed rate for all servers? :thinking: jk love your contents!
All those cripple mechanics and it's not even close to oldschool MS, which was considered fine and even now some people still prefer. You can still reach the level cap in only a few days even as f2p, which is not long in objective time (if you don't relate it to other servers). Is this really so bad then? At least this makes good gear and characters *really* rare, so they are also *really* impressive when you do have them. Please don't flame :( I honestly want to hear why you hate this so much.
Miss the time of the start of Europe Server, that time was awesome. Later some of the Europe Exclusive content, even though it wasn't as polished, still made us feel a little bit special haha
do u guys remember nebulites? oh baby i remember when 4% and 5% all stats costs so much till some1 found a way to mass dupe them! so many banned accounts after that lol.
Dang, and here i thought MSEA was trash for its bad XP and bots everywhere.
Not to mention the recent surge in players causing the server to lag like hell, everything you do has a delayed response! Can't play any combo class in peace.
Maybe i should be grateful to be able to play on MSEA? But nah the company behind it is still shit. Earn so much still cant fix/upgrade there server.

TMS reboot is pretty bad too , did 1 month of commerci , 0 Sweetwater drop . if u want to cube gear u have to use "anima cube" it cost meso instead of consuming a cube , the chance of getting def% mp% and such worthless stat is incredibly high and it cost so much per cube and the price will increase per roll . There's also another type of cube available on the store , login reward or event , but im not sure about the difference.
solo progression is certainly possible but it probably require massive rng , im very close at beating first cra boss but it all thanks to the fact that i got 2 line boss damage on Japanese weapon and beating easy cygnus and julieta to acquire empress set , i cannot possibly imagine soloing is possible before julieta exist . btw Japanese weapon from madman ranmaru is very rare too . ive only gotten 1 since ive ever being able to kill ranmaru . im not sure about how gms works , i cant play it on my region .
ALSO , no flames on for gear drop too , thats huge
0:07 "Maplestory is serviced in many region"
while missing the one server that first clear black mage over the world aka TMS lol
my friend once invite me to a cms private server, i was amazed by how so many things were difference, you can buy 20 star scroll on auction house (although expensive as heck, and its impossible to star normally), there is this weird things that increase your damage range limit but its buy through nx (its private server, nx is free) and all those stuff. Big brain me never did a mental transition of these cases over to the normal server where you have to pay things that is brought through nx...
At least the server i played have active GM catching bots 030~
MapleStory Brazil (BMS) was held by a company famous for their p2w games and cashgrab habits. The game updates were pretty rare because the company (LevelUp Games) just kept updating the cash shop and the cash shop only for a long time. After over 1,5 years of not a single content update and just the cash shop updates every 3 days, people started giving up until the server finally died without ever even releasing the 4th job.
dahora ver um BR aqui kkkk, joguei muito pouco do BMS, joguei ele pela primeira vez 1 ano antes dele fechar de fato (sem terem anunciado) e voltei faltando 4 meses pra fechar, anos depois descobri o quão falho era aquele server e os bugs bizarros que tinha (por meio de vídeos antigos) PQP. Mas se não me falha a memória a gente teve 4th job sim.
Remember when GMS did rollbacks....
Made me cry making me waste so much time leveling
The price of 20 star scroll is 38000 RMB (5400 USD) now
my friends tell me 20stars scroll now in CMS is 10kUSD now
I'm so shocked about that server that I'm happy for playing GMS
As a former CMS player who played CMS for more than a decade, actually I (and also almost all of the CMS players) feel CMS becomes nothing but trash so as its company. Last year I went to UK and tried GMS, after a hour playing GMS, I believed that I could totally give up CMS. Nothing worth to waste time and money on CMS at all.
And actually I really enjoy my new experience in Scania with my friends, although my character is not so powerful (also I'm really lazy about leveling lol), I reach a stage that I could never reach in CMS, see beautiful scene in Arcana, save many beauties in my salon (well CMS has no salon at all which made me really angry about CMS), have bought a lot of beautiful outfits.
I never regret that I gave up CMS and choose GMS.
My favorite moment was when I was still new and the premium surprise style boxes went on sale but they botched the sale and were selling 30 boxes for like 1k nx and I just happened to be there to buy some not thinking twice that they were incorrectly priced. I just thought they were being nice
I love how you always find new content to make :] This is deff my favorite Maple youtube ch
Being a below 18 year old gamer in China just got worse. Now the government tells them to only play like 2-3 hours a week, you only get to play in the weekend
Hey man, I played in CMS for 8 years before I AFKed around 2013 so I didn't get a chance to experience the worst starforcing system among maple servers, but I must say that ENTIRE contents in CMS were terrible for those who simply wanted to enjoy maplestory. CMS nerfed drop rates of equips and mesos greatly, so it was almost impossible to farm normally as we can do in other servers. Gacha and RMT are only available ways to get good gears and survive in high level maps like Arcane River. One of our most porpular jokes was to guess which good and interesting contents released from other testing servers (like KMST) would be nerfed or removed after they landed in CMS. Now I'm back to maplestory in GMS and I can tell that anyone who used to stay in CMS will never consider going back there after they get access to other servers.
Man I love that intro. I replay the intro for at least 4 times every time I watch your vids XD.
Have u played veracent?
Hi, I am current a GMSR player and just experienced that terrible DMT time for both weekends (the first one and the one after "code optimization"). However, when I thought back how I played CMS in (in certain months of) 2016-2017, you knew what, that is almost how I felt every single day at that time period, the severe lag caused by too much hackers which captured ALL the channels of certain map (usually the map with high-level monster at that time), I needed to go to boss or dojo strictly after the maintenance to avoid the severe lag.
Out of curiosity, has this video been demonetized?
Mainland Chinese localizations have always done things there own ways.
Anyone remember Audition Online? Rather then letting players buy clothes directly from the shop, the game force quits the player to a web browser to buy their clothing. The reason behind this is assumed to be for ad revenue.
This is infuriating for private server programmers because basically Chinese servers are the only servers that have files made public to start their own server, which means programmers must program the server to redirect to another site for players of the private server to buy clothes, or manually and painstakingly program the game to allow in game purchases.
i dont think it is worse, but in my country we had the BMS (brazil maple story) and man... Its was shutdown in 2011 - and for a reason. The economy was totally broken due to meso hack, everything costed billions. The server was very late in content, only one world, and the version was mess, for example we had 4th job but no Horntail (how do you get the skills which HT PQ is needed?? You don't!), not to mention, bugs, lag, crashes, bots, etc.
0:24 you use a wrong pic,because that pic is mobile game
Eww thats horrible. Currently playing in jms and we are only getting 8 character slot first and expansion slot cost about 18usd. Tried to play at reboot server but theres hardly anyone playing on it in japan which makes it really difficult.
The exp drop after 4 hours is understandable.
The fact that CMS is still up means that its working out somehow
I found out I can tolerate the meso grind in Reboot GMS when I am drinking alcohol.
And here I thought MSEA is the worse one
CMS: HOLD MY BEER
how is this even playable
its like they dont want people to play the game
Oh man, those nexon game cards gave me the BIGGEST sense of nostalgia like _HHHNNNNNGGGGG_
Wa-WHAT? 2:42, NO ARCANE WEAPONS??????
Shulong, which is the proxy of this Chinese server, is so notorious that we all call it dog because their tolerance for hackers and deduction for game rewards. You fund 20k rmb (3k ish usd) can't even fight lucid. I was a CMS player, but they are just soo bad that there is no point to play at that server at all. No idea why there are still new player want to return this hell smh.
Y I K E S
As a former CMS player, I’ve got something to share with u :)
CMS is a special server, Nexon found Shanda Corp. as its agent in China (now the agent changed to Shanda’s subsidiary Shulong, I’ll use ‘SL’ below as abbreviation). Nexon won’t interfere with CMS’s operate as long as SL gave a proportion of its income to Nexon.
In general, CMS was a delicate server at that time, players enjoy the time when they adventured in Maplestory accompanied by their friends. In 2000s CMS was one of the most popular games among my generation and of course, it’s one of the precious memories in my childhood. However, it’s commonly admitted that after the ‘Big Bang’ update in 2010 everything changed. Shanda became greedy since then, and ‘pay to win’ gradually became the game’s moral.
In general, there are two main criticisms to the server among CMS players. The first one is SL’s negative act against hackers. In previous years the hackers captured almost every map in all channels. They even formed an industrial chain that some people make money off of it. Hackers obtained a huge amount of mesos and sell them or use them to buy cash items, thus raised the market price. Hackers make the server literally unplayable. The company acquiesced in the situation because the hacker group did do contribution to SL’s revenue. There is another conjecture that they didn’t have effective means against hackers.
The second one is the SL’s attitude towards welfare. In short, it deleted most welfares that make people get stronger easily without paying. Besides, it added other ways to get those welfares only if u pay a considerable amount of money.
One thing that can't be ignored is the existence of merchants. They use arbitrage strategies in the condition of information asymmetry and economies of scale. For rare items, they completely control the supply.
So here is the plight of CMS players. They are being exploited by Shanda Corp., hackers and merchants. If u want to play the game normally, u find it hard cause the existence of hackers. If u want to strengthen ur character, u cannot get the basic leveling-up welfare cause they’ve been deleted. Now u can only choose pay to win but RNG is bad in CMS (as u can see in this video they even weaken the success rate of starforce) and merchants monopolized the market.
CMS players have their judgments, they’ve criticized Shanda Corp. for years. Almost in every BBS u can see such opinions. But the reality failed them and SL never changed fundamentally. In recent years, with the development of technical means, some players got the chance to TMS and GMS, but most players still stuck in CMS due to the language barrier. As years went by, CMS players grew up, having their family and job, leaving less time and energy to this game. But they treasured memories of the old times and this game. Be generous to CMS players cause they really love Maplestory even in such a dilemma, no matter how time changes.
i dont want to comment this,but i only one thing that i want to say is i played maplestory in cms since 2005-20007 these years. i REALLY miss old school,with friends,and that's only one unique system in cms is about rings and it was very stronger ring in old days everyone can get it ,the ring sell in shop for(20,000) meso. 2MATT 2ATT with 50hp 50mp, 5 moving speed . you can have 4 of these rings .the ring rq lv is 0 , you can own 120 moving speed in Character any LV . after 2007 oct that patch the ring is finally removed by
Korea nexon, i used have fun in cms ....
1:33 OMFG THE GLONA HEART SF SYSTEM IS FROM MAPLESTORY CHINA. No wonder everyone thinks it's a god-forsaken thing.
JMS has no flames, and removes character slot coupons from the event coin shops too
I still remember when they introduced the TMS ( Maple Trade Shop) to Global, there was essentially a duplicating glitch, people dropping Chaos Scrolls like crazy in the FM entrance. 😂 those where the good old days.
That's a $100 USD btw not $1000
I don't understand how greedy can companies be.
Is there any sea server?
jia siong maplesea?
@@NotLeatty where to download?
@@jiasiong7612 maplesea.com
Yes, Maplesea. www.maplesea.com/
the main reason i heard is that they are too many cheat players in Chinese sever. You know they treat maplestory like a afk game. They bought some plug-in and just leaves their account to level-up by themselves. This can totally destroy the experience of other players. By the way, CMS never block or punish those players. That's why we called it "Trash Company" and i totally agree with it.
I don't even play this game anymore but coppersan keeps me interested
They actually fucking reduce exp gain if you play for over 4 hours, thats fucking insane to me
hee, was jij niet laatst op het nieuws
I know this is out of place,
even Dragon Nest Online in China is weird, they love creating OP equips which is not in the game actually and hurting the game itself
Maplesea and China is a totally different pls understand which server are u in
did u hear about the guardian event msea is having right now? it makes starforce success 2x and destroy chance halfed. everyone is walking around with full 22 stars now
Love ur videos btw, greetings from Dominican Republic, the caribbean, Central America
not sure if any of these are true now since I tried CMS in 2007, and it was pretty much the same as GMS except all the cash items are permanent including pets. Which I was really jealous about
Msea is some what almost similar to Cms in terms of server but i guess Cms at least creates a vip server whereby Msea doesnt even care abt the players satisfaction some people even cashed in and the server rolled back like tf ?
dont forget missing storage items, ibox ignores all bugs except @cash
hey, nobody is grinding in chinaMS tbh, everybody is using bot to farm no kidding
and I though the worst thing was EMS getting cygnus knights before adventurer pirates
¥11,000 is around $110. Your number was pretty off.
I cant see any reason for someone to play CMS in this situation..
They can"t play on other servers without VPN.
F
My question is: When is Coppersan going to be hired by Nexon? This guy has been here forever, clearly they know who he is.
CMS just snap the finger just like Thanos, BM is gone
I'm just going to use this as reference for when I'm about to complain again...because it could end up becoming *so much worse* then what I'd ever expect.
I think my account is like this server 🤣🤣 no matter hoy many cubes use still got the worse stats 🤣🤣🤣
me too, it's so hard to get unique for me, and the point that I'm conformable with epic and some unique potentials
TMS gives you 48 free character slots and you can obtain free legendary potential scroll through monthly quests called “happy day” which is very nice. Also, our cash items are with no time limits. Quite nice huh
I love your channel! keep up the good work much love
In term of server stability, Msea is kinda bad, there 30 channel in one world but only 6 of it is “stable” while the other just straight up 299-900 ping filled with bot ( can’t blame them they give us cheap cubes)
Maplesea is probably a close second for the worst Maplestory server ever.
Is it me or GMS is super laggy lately? and not because maintenance. I started playing again a month ago and all was fine, then like a week ago i started lagging pretty hardso often, i can't play with my kanna because she crashes me :(
I think it's just you, as I really don't have many issues with Maplestory besides the occasional lag spikes and crashes
i miss Supreme World from Maple Europe :(
im in vietnam and really want to play maplestory once again :< but my server is closed , can anyone introduce me some asia server to play ?
Pro tip for Chinese players get a VPN, learn English, make a Gmail acc, download GMS and enjoy a capitalist style game where hard work can get you far ( in reboot ) and get to stepping. Oh and that will cost you 22000 yen for the advice what will be your preferred payment method .
I personally think thats the reason why all chinese use vpn to play on other server cause my god the chinese server is just fucked up
That's why many Chinese maplers quit CMS and start GMS or TMS.
how can they allow this greed to continue
when there's demand, the server thrive..
Its china.....they have the kings of whales.
11000 Y is more like 103 USD tho.. 🤔
My bad! Thanks for correcting!
@@coppersan ahah all good :p But, glad i Don't play China Ms.. 🤣
This is why I left CMS, and I was playing CMS in Australia. Well GMS is way better than CMS. I remember the time when Tyrant first released, a white clean thief cape cost me almost $300. Sad, isn’t it. You know what I mean. Nice video!
meanwhile CMS getting a new flame resurrection which is let you straight get T7 flame LOL
wow now I see why there was pokemon unite outrage
When communist China trickled into MapleStory and only the hyper rich can have a decent experience 👌
Remembering back how many times I boomed my equip, what if the starforce rate in CMS is ACTUALLY the programmed rate for all servers? :thinking: jk love your contents!
Coppersan's version of The WORST MapleStory Server - CMS
My version of The WORST MapleStory Server - MSEA !
All those cripple mechanics and it's not even close to oldschool MS, which was considered fine and even now some people still prefer.
You can still reach the level cap in only a few days even as f2p, which is not long in objective time (if you don't relate it to other servers).
Is this really so bad then? At least this makes good gear and characters *really* rare, so they are also *really* impressive when you do have them.
Please don't flame :(
I honestly want to hear why you hate this so much.
All non sf maps from lvl 100 to about 150 are all occupied by bots.
Good job msea ;)
Miss the time of the start of Europe Server, that time was awesome. Later some of the Europe Exclusive content, even though it wasn't as polished, still made us feel a little bit special haha
I'll miss veracent :(
Best levelling spot
I am ok thank God i play reboot in GMS
do u guys remember nebulites? oh baby i remember when 4% and 5% all stats costs so much till some1 found a way to mass dupe them! so many banned accounts after that lol.
For some reason I thought that CMS closed years ago
