Map Crashing Outbreak and Gamekiller Down!
It seems that this Map Crashing has finally gotten to Nexon, and they have released a little notice that says :
Dear Maplers,
Many of you have been experiencing issues with being disconnected yesterday and today, most notably while in the Free Market. We are aware of this issue, and our developers are working to resolve it.
Thank you for your patience.
– The Maple Team –
They will have something done eventually, the game is not offline, so I am guessing there are GMs online, but yeah. Let’s see what happens next in this Pre-Chaos Chaos.
Earlier this morning, 6/13/11, a user by the name of DOTcurrency on popular hacking site, http://w8baby.com, released a way to Crash maps. He released a packet that when sent disconnects all other users on the map. This hack does not allow items to be duped, but I am sure there most likely is a VIP hack for it. The release thread on the forum boards has about 58 replies and 1,547 views. It seems that this has been around for a few versions, but never released officially to the public like this.
There are many reports of FMs all across the Maple World in GMS being disconnected and emptied. This gives the hackers time to set up their own shops, and hurt others trying to make a good maple living. Not only FM maps, but also training maps, and many other maps throughout the game. We do not seem to have any reports from EMS or MSEA, but we will get you updated as soon as possible.
It seems that w8baby.com has been the link to many of the recent duping issues that have been going on in not only GMS, but in EMS and MapleSEA. Gamekiller.net, another popular hacking site, is offline. You get this error when you attempt to access the site:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘/’ in /home/gamekill/public_html/includes/init.php on line 687
It seems someone may have messed something up, and the webpage is offline.
Here is a video of the Map Crashing, as I stated above it has been around for quite some time now, but not totally public. Maybe that is why it hasn’t been patched, because of not enough people using it.
Impulsively,
Impulse

New and Upcoming Content in Foreign Versions: October
October was very small, but can November and December make up for it?
Big Bang: Upcoming
JapanMS
Japan MapleStory has been lagging slightly behind other old services of the game recently and they are still lacking Ice Gorge and the Chaos Bosses. This will change in 27 days though, because Japan MapleStory will the the first version outside of Korea to receive the highly anticipated Big Bang updates. The first update will take place on November 24, 2010. Read more here.
ChinaMS
So GlobalMS and ChinaMS will both be getting Big Bang this December! Shanda, the publishers of MapleStory in China, announced that Big Bang will meet China MapleStory’s 70 million players (of 95 million worldwide) this December. It will take place in three updates, with players being forced to redownload the game after the first update. The update preview can be viewed here.
Recent Updates
It has been an extremely small month for updates to MapleStory around the world. Of the versions that actually had updates this month, one had a big update.
EuropeMS 0.65
The biggest update of the month went to EuropeMS in the update to 0.65 on Wednesday, October 13. This update included Time Temple, Pink Bean, Dual Raid (Ghost Ship in the Mist) and Kerning Square. Interestingly, EuropeMS received the Ghost Ship in the Mist before GlobalMS (GlobalMS got it on Wednesday, October 20). View the patch notes here.
JapanMS 1.89
JapanMS 1.89 took place on Wednesday, October 20. This update added Halloween events including the Uninvited Guest Party Quest. This update was small with no permanent content being added. Wouldn’t this have been the perfect time to add Ice Gorge and the Chaos Bosses, Nexon Japan? Event notice is here.
MapleSEA 0.96
MapleSEA got their 0.96 update on Wednesday, October 6. Like JapanMS’s October update, no permanent content was added. The update included Haunted House II, Cassandra’s Trick or Treat event, Mal Volence Party Quest and Dual Blade Pre-events. Update notes have been posted here.
Upcoming Updates
ThaiMS 0.87
ThailandMS will update to 0.87 on Wednesday, November 3. This update includes the Ice Gorge and the Chaos Bosses (both of which JapanMS don’t have). ThailandMS’s recent updates have been really big. It looks like a Big Bang announcement for ThaiMS is coming up. Read the patch notes (in Thai) here.
MapleSEA 0.97
Finally, Dual Blade is heading to MapleSEA on Wednesday, November 10. Who knows when MapleSEA will get Big Bang. I’d say either March or May/June.
Nexon News Network
Hello Nexon gamers!
Welcome to the Nexon News Network forums! If you’ve seen the forums, Maple-News, or Colhen then you’ve probably noticed the “N3″ logo popping up quite a bit. We thought it would be fun to confuse the hell out of you guys leave hints on various websites. I’m sure the question on everyone’s mind is: What the heck is N3?
The Nexon News Network
The Nexon News Network or N3 as we like to call it is a collection of news websites dedicated to Nexon games. Inspired by the pending release of BlockParty.com, we thought it might be cool to create a website where all Nexon gamers could easily find the latest news through feeds for their favorite Nexon games. We then took it a step further by creating a forum that would encompass each website in the network and each game that it focused on so no matter what game you play, you could interact with all different types of people. The goal in all this is to create a large community of Nexon gamers and news sites so whether you play MapleStory, Vindictus, Mabinogi, Dungeon Fighter Online, or any other Nexon games you can readily find the latest news for your favorite game(s) and interact with those who play the same game or games you do and meet those who don’t! Whether you only play one or five Nexon games there’s a place for you here at N3!
We hope to create a thriving community here at N3 and hopefully expose gamers to other Nexon games that they may not have tried. Who knows, you might find a game you love!
What’s different?
Nothing has changed other than the forum URL and platform.
To Colhen users: your accounts and posts have been imported to the N3 forums. Just log in with whatever information you used on your previous forum and ta-daa! Everything is just as you left it. Some users may have to re-upload their avatars.
To Maple-News users: Nothing has changed other than the board URL and logo. All your accounts, posts, and avatars are just as you left them. All you have to do is log in using the new URL (http://forums.nexonnews.net).
Our Goal
Our goal is to create a thriving community of Nexon gamers and offer players from all Nexon games a place to interact, meet new people, and talk about their favorite games! We encourage all users to tell their friends and spread the word in-game! We can’t do this without you guys!
Join the Network
Do you run a news website for a Nexon game that’s not already part of the network? We’re looking for more websites! If so send us an e-mail at contact@nexonnews.net with the title “Join the Network”. We are not limited to only Nexon America games but your website must be in English! Every site receives a link on our portal page and a news feed linking back to their website.
Welcome to N3 and let’s make this community the best it can be!

The Korean Game Market May Exceed $ 2 Billion in revenue in 2011!
The Korean Game Market is estimated to exceed $ 2,000,000,000 in revenue next year! Pearl Research says that according to a new study that the Korean Game Market is expanding extremely fast over seas, and this will exceed their revenue to $ 2 billion by the next year. About 3 of the 5 top Korean Game companies have seen a 50% growth in revenue in the past year, and one of those top companies is Nexon Inc. Nexon reported that for the first time ever non- Korean sales accounted for the majority of their global revenue in 2009, which was 703.6 billion ($ 586 million) with titles such as MapleStory, and Dungeon Fighter Online. Publisher of Soul of the Ultimate Nation, NHN, also reported a 50% growth of their revenues. Publisher of CrossFire, NeoWiz, also reported a growth for 2009 as well. The Korean Game Market has expanded immensely over seas, and many of the Korean Titles have become very popular in other countries. MapleStory has gotten extremely popular not only in North America, but South East Asia. Brazil, China, Taiwan, Vietnam, and much more. The Korean Game Market have lead the way in new online business models for MMOs across the world. U.S. Game companies also are expanding over seas with the release of Fifa Online 2 in Korea. It has gained a lot of popularity especially with the World Cup, which recently ended. This helped draw attention and set the stage for many event ideas. World of Warcraft is also gaining big popularity in the Korean Region as well. Many Gaming Companies all over the world are expanding not only in their own regions, but out side their markets. It has been a success for many, and some not the best. 80% of PC usage comes from Korea only, and it’s growing with even more U.S. companies expanding there.

Another Meso Exploit?
A new meso exploit as come to surface recently, and it may be even worse than the last one.
This hack takes place in leafre where the etc. item “Griffey’s Horn” is found. This is the most valuable etc. item so far. What this packet hack, it duplicates the item by 4,800 and puts it into your inventory. this is done every 15 minutes, as it takes that long to duplicate, and can make you 120m every hour. There is one thing that many found out about it. Instead of making another meso virus move, Nexon decided to put an IP ban on anyone who uses whit packet editing software. At least it’s better than the hellbans people recived earlier this month. Tonight, there will be a server maintenence before the v88 DualBlade Patch to fix it. Let’s hope not another one arises after its release. Only time will tell…
