MapleStory

I've found a MMORPG which IMO is a really fun one.

Looks interesting enough. I'm signing up.

Oh, BTW. Get this program and use a joystick, I'm almost 100% positive that using a joystick rather than the keyboard is much better on your hands.

JoytoKey, I use it and its alot easier for me than the keyboard.

I shun MMORPG's for various reasons. I'm sure it's entertaininig and all, but I'll pass.

Uhh, that sucks. At first I didn't get good speed, and then I used a download accelerator and got it within an hour.

DLed this last night and gave it a whirl. It's extremely simple but stupidly addicting. They captured the drawing elements of an MMORPG without all the bullshit (although some bullshit, like crafting, I would have welcomed).

 

I played it for about an hour on the keyboard, and then bothered to setup joy2key. Believe me, it is 10x more enjoyable on a joystick.

 

Just to make it easier, I made JoyToKey presets that toggle between normal mode and mouse mode, so I can use my PS1-style pad for everything but typing. This makes it a lot like playing a Super Nintendo game.

 

Here's my joy2key presets, just put 'em in your JoyToKey directory and select one of the presets before you start Maple Story.

And a quick rundown of the controls:

I had it downloaded last week, tried for a couple of hours and uninstalled it. You ask why? mm because all you do is walk around, jump, hack, pick up item, walk, walk, jump, hack, pick up item. It didn't really appeal to me.

 

However for those who just started, hope you have a better experience.

Yeah, it's pretty darn repetetive. I'll probably mess around a little longer because I just started getting skills, but I am tiring of it already.

 

Anyone play Gunbound? That's what this reminds me of, different genre, similar art style and dress up options. I think it was another korean game or something. That was a cool game.

It's alot more fun to play with people you kinda know.

So post your alias here.

I have a warrior named EnderWiggen and an archer named Ghichai

Does it split up players by server? I haven't tried to log into anything but #1. I have a thief named, believe it or not, Daeval.
