With more and more participants making in the rant line, the aftershock of the exposure of a severe exploit's abuse in MapleStory 2 still has no sign of quieting down in a short time. Would this unexpected emergency be the final nail in the coffin of MapleStory 2, after the game has experienced consistent loss of player base and its irreparable framework failures? And how do the game publisher Nexon and its devs manage to get through the crisis? Besides an exploit that has been neglected by the Devs and abused by cheaters for months, what's the general reaction and suggestions from ordinary players in the game? We're here to get the bottom of these questions and explore more about that.
There are something interest going on in the MapleStory 2 official forum. shortly after the disclosure of this catastrophic incident in Reddit, some players were starting a few threads on the forum to make a rant, complaint, or manifesto over the company's attitude towards this incident. One peculiar thread, written by BaronLövat, responding to the Mannequin Exploit with a steady resolution to abusers' punishment and reasoned insight into the abuse's hazard, impressed me deeply. He claimed that if Nexon wouldn't take drastic measures, like permanent suspension at least, against these cheaters who had been abusing the exploit for so long, he then definitely make up his mind to quit the game for good. Then he held up several hazards and damages the abusers had caused that is dreadful enough to make everyone say no to lay upon lenity policy to them. Below is a short list of the abuse's marks and its harm from the writer's perspective:
- These cheaters have gained a massive advantage in progressing their mains;
- The top 5% of players, which is what these exploiters have abused their way into the ranks of, are the very same ones who have the capability to sell run carries;
- These cheaters have not only manipulated the game, and Nexon, but they've manipulated everyone. They've effectively taken our hard earned Meso without earning the ability to do it
In my opinion, Nexon probably won't back down from the request made by MapleStory 2 players. It's much easier to understand the circumstance that just let me illustrate a few similar ones that Nexon has been dealt with before: The Mesos Sellers befell and has been rooted in the game since the first day of release, after months-long condemnation they still piled on and run on their devious business; The absurd setting of RNG has been accused by players for very long time too, but what now? The still overruled players' progression urges over and over again. So there is no way to tell Nexon finally listen carefully and approve the sentiments from the player base. But there are still some exceptional measures to choose from that can make the game survive from this calamity.
Thinking out of the box, the exploit was abused by the top 5% of players with envious gears equipped. Basically, it allows any items traveling through each character these players have and sharing with multiple characters at the same time. If Nexon has the guts to take the opposite approach and turn this "exploit" into a "feature", meaning the 5% abuse completely transfer into 100% clearance to all players. It definitely kills all the whining and rants in a second and may soothe the quitting phenomenon in no time.
