Nexon virtually refused to invite the related game users directly to the controversy of the’probability type item’ (reported on page 18 of the Joongbu Ilbo, February 23, etc.).
According to Nexon and game users on the 9th, Nexon told the’MapleStory’ user community’MapleStory Inventor’ on the day, “We are currently discussing detailed plans for the official meeting, so we need a little more time.” I will guide the contents within this week. I am sorry for not being willing to respond to the invitation that made it difficult.”
Users sent an invitation to Nexon the day before, saying that Nexon will hold a meeting on the 14th when Nexon did not respond to the request for a meeting.
Users are pouring out criticisms such as “I have another excuse”, “I don’t know how much more time I have,” and “Isn’t it like this again?”
The general team, who prepared the meeting, plans to hold the meeting on the 14th if Nexon does not set a date within this month.
In addition to meetings, users are also preparing a class action suit.
This is because a manipulation problem arose again when Nexon’s “Cube’s potential reset logic and detailed probability disclosure” posted on the 5th included the content that some of the potential options were set not to appear at the same time.
The notice stated that when the Legendary potential was first added in August 2011, it is possible to acquire a maximum of two partial potentials to prevent boss hunting or excessively exceeding the balance threshold for item acquisition.
I put a limit on the fact that too strong items would come out and break the game balance, but the problem is that users didn’t know that.
Users paid a cost of up to tens of millions of won to obtain three options called’Bobobo’ and’Bangbangbang’ (‘Boss Monster Attack Damage’ and’Monster Defense Rate’). It means that you have invested money in.
As users rebelled against the lawsuit, Nexon responded with Lee Sang-heon Lee, a Democratic Party member (Ulsan Buk-gu), to the effect of “solving the problem and making it transparent”.
Initially, Nexon’s answer included “I apologize for the lack of prior explanation.”
Users are criticizing Nexon’s response, such as “it seems to be legally unfavorable, so it is subtracted” and “is it already prepared for lawsuits?”
A Nexon official said, “It takes time not to avoid meetings, but to prepare to clear the user’s curiosity and the contents of the problem this time.” I just deleted it, but there is no other intention.”
