[MSEA] Big Bang post II

The server has been really unstable these days. Let me sum up the extent of it.

Since the Big Bang patch was released, there have been 10 urgent maintenance and server checks, all in a span of 3 weeks. In addition, there was the major rollback, login issues, lagging issues and the urgent surprise checks never seem to solve the problems! (There is one currently going on right now)

One good thing did come out of the rollback, I learnt how to post on a forum about the rollback! I had to resort to that since there was no information on the webpage or the facebook page, which made it seem as if the developers were covering it up...

Anyway so, another good thing that came out of the Big Bang patch as the leveling! The exp system was revamped to make leveling easier, perhaps, a bid to attract more players? They won me over. I actually went to train and rid myself of the 122 I had for around 6 months and moved on.. to 123! Such a pretty number.

Lets look at a case study.

This Battle mage become 100.. in a span of a week!?  know cause he's my friend. Credit goes to the 2x exp event that was given to Aquila as a compensation of the rollback, but that's a triple digit in a week! True, some people are just hardcore trainers but hey to me, that's really fast.

Sadly, I'm not the training type. Maybe I'll reach 200 in a couple of years!

Here's a Post-Big Bang Post! The Big Bang patch was released on 18th May 2011 on MapleSEA. Frankly, I'm rather confused with the terms Big Bang, Rise of the Resistance and all the new hot words these days. I haven't been following much, I guess.

So Big Bang is like a pre-patch before the new Resistance characters come out. Changes for levelling, stats, maps, party quests, normal quests, monsters, skills are out in this patch. Pretty much, everything has changed. The maps were the most confusing ones, to me. I took an hour trying to Google for Irene. Forums took me to the top of the pharmacy building in Kerning, but not until I climbed the rope at Port Road: Six Path Crossway and found Irene

did I realise those forums were probably talking about some other servers. Boy was I glad to see her familiar face again after searching for an hour. Good thing Maple characters don't sweat after walking for a really long distance.

At long last, my hometown! Complete with that toy machine thing we see under HDB blocks, constant reminders to be good citizens and our very pride and joy - 2 large durians!
