Nexon: We apologize for getting caught so we must try harder next time to do better in the bottom of our hearts.
do better in terms of not getting caught? HAHAHAHA!!!
This is also the second time they got caught for the same shit btw.
@@taxevasionexpert8217 I know, which is why I never take this nor any games by Nexon seriously. I only casually play this game from time to time when I feel like it lmao!
I always find starforcing boom rate a little suspicious when I kept hitting it at 0.7%.
*We'll try harder to not get caught next time.
Nexon made it exactly 2 days into the new year. A new record.
Cheers to Sacrix 😢
Happy new years
😂😂😂😂
happy new year 🥳
What a great game we play pretty sure the premium suprise the wonder marvel starforced scroll all is rigged
Nexon: We apologize for getting caught, and we promise we will do better to hide more important information from you in future and not get caught.
again?
@@riacardi7011 again.
GMS cube rates have yet to be released to the public as well, correct? I wonder if they've done something similar here but haven't had to disclose it. Definitely raises an eyebrow.
GMS apparently has very high tier up rate . Disclose of it will likely result in reduction into much lower KMS rate , are you guys fine about it ? :)
I dont play GMS , but personally they should just release all the probability for all region at this point of time .
@@SiriusTrance I agree, if GMS discloses the rates, the KMS players will complain and have it nerfed.
Nexon has never acknowledge our rates specially after Korea made theirs public tho, so as far as public knowledge goes, we have the same rates as KMS unless they come out now and say it (which is probably going to get koreans mad) this is going to be messy
It wouldn’t matter nowadays. Because we don’t have the same cubes as KMS. We don’t have black cubes and meister cubes .
A rollback just happened at gms, bet you they trying to cover up their shit lmao
In 2023, Nexon made 260mm USD net income in a single quarter. 11 Billion Won is roughly 8mm USD. Nexon basically said "oops looks like we got caught, sorry but please don't stop spending!"
Players need to demand more from this disgrace of a company that monetizes addiction. I still can't believe people are paying 100$ for a loot machine in this game! With that money you can buy a game like Elden Ring and still have money left to buy yourself a nice dinner.
It’s a life style game.
for real, no sympathy for these players
$100 dollars is quite modest for the really dedicated players. Maybe add one or two more zeroes behind and it's more realistic.

@@raindeary truth
I'm not really surprised Nexon did this given their history of anti-consumer practices, and even without raw data I think many of us had the sneaking suspicion that something about the numbers and potential lines didn't feel right. What I *AM* surprised about is how spectacularly they got caught. I'll be curious to see how Nexon tries to deal with this over the next few weeks. Will they try and sweep things under the rug and keep doing what they've been doing? Or will this thorough investigation combined with the new law force them to update their code to try and look more honest? Either way, I'm getting out a bag of popcorn for this one.
11.6 bil won ~8m USD fine for a company that pulls in a few billy revenue a year is just an operating cost 😂
They don't and bro doesn't even understand what profit is lmao
@@nate8528 what?
Dang, so basically they're just getting fined for something they did a while ago that we sort of knew about, but we now know their manipulations behind the scenes were much sketchier than we initially thought.
Nexon: " we're sorry maplers, as a compensation we gave you free 2x exp coupon and 5 soul Erda. Oh also they're expired in 1 day"
5!?!?! They will give us 3 sol erda and we have to kill 3k mobos for each one lmao 😂😂😂
@@robkc6069 yeah, that's more like Nexon lol
It's baffling how people take a dick sideways to the ass, yelp about the pain for one day and then continue like nothing happened. Stop playing this garbage
So cubes have been manipulated, flames didn't work properly and IA also did not work properly. Let's see when we get the notification that SF is rigged as well! Or that magic attack is more common in attack classes and vice versa.
I'm not playing Maple atm but your thumbnail was so good I had to come give you a like and comment, good luck man.
The whole cubing, flame and star force system has been the most toxic thing I ever experienced. There is no pity mechanic and you never get what is needed for your job. Star force is the most frustrating thing ever. You can grind mesos for months then try to get more stars and make no progress at all. It costs so much mesos just to get one more star, then your item will boom and there you go, you just spent 2-3 months grinding for a DOWNGRADE. Complete waste of time and efforts.
except for sf the two fail into a guarantee pass is a pity system, and they did added pity for cubing. Only flames have no pity but the real pity is the people still paying for this game.
the trick is to hit 17 star then stop caring
Cant wait for them to really get to the bottom of this. They need to be punished for what everyone had to go through. Never really trusted Nexon on day 1.
@@12mulesandy There was never any pity for me lol. The probabilities in this game have always felt rigged. I have failed 80% success rate enhancements 5-6 times in a row so many times. This kind of probability is almost impossible to get even once but I manage to get it several times in a row, on several pieces of equipment. I am not surprised at all that they got caught. They are clearly manipulating everything.
max your diligence and be patient, this game is all about patience and consistency. If you had ten characters that can farm anything under nslime, you could farm at least 15b a week easily. The game is easy to manipulate once you actually progress in all of their systems.
I’m quite suspicious of the starforce rates too
Its shocking how often you can fail a 30% rank up chance 10+ times in a row isnt it?
@@TheMostVanillaGorilla it is 5 times more likely to fail 10 times in a row at a 65.8% than it is to win at 31.5% 5 times in a row.
(31.5% has 0.31% which is 1 in 322 and 65.8 has 1.52% which is 1 in 65).
Not saying 10 times in a row without 1 rank up is normal, just trying to warn you about how abysmally low the chances to go from 15 to 20 in one go already are. If SF is also rigged (which I personally think it is) you can imagine how much of a statistical anomaly it is to hit 22 stars.
Probably does the drop rate too for frags
As always, I never trust Nexon's probability.
😂 when I can fail 95% 3 times in a row for star force, they're definitely crooked as heck
Sweet, we might see account wide link skills after this in a couple of months
What about Starforce manipulation?
I think they're saving that as our New Year's gift for 2025
Confirm have, everything in the file is binary format, so is just we can't see it
I remember when they said the cubes weren't manipulated when the flame probability scandal happened, there needs to a punishment beyond just simple fines. I work in the finance sector, fines are just cost of business if the profit far exceeds the fines. Unless there's actual threats of getting their license revoked, or executives and board members directly involved have chances of getting jailed for fraud, they will just scapegoat someone to fire and continue their practice.
You know Nexon really fkd up when Steve sounds so upset and mad :(
God how many years has this mushroom game been scamming us, i swear the boom rates were unusually high too b4 the change to 1-15 star no boom
nexon's new year's resolution: continue to convince players not to spend money in all servers
sad thing is people would spend regardless
Nah, they gotta maintain that MVP red
Sneaky sneaky Nexon, changing the "r" in "rng" from random to rigged... You know, what's really sad is that this news isn't truly surprising given their track record as you detailed in this video. I mean, it kinda says something when most players are suspicious of the numbers we're presented with as being factual. What pisses me off personally is when companies try to control narrative, and enforce acts of censorship on their players/users to keep major issues under raps. Crazy that Nexon Korea was doing this regarding this cube scandal... Lie about it and then hide the voices of those noticing what's really going on and/or wanting answers... That's filthy.
God bless the Fair Trade Commission, and I hope KMS players can get some sort of... well w.e it is that they want for this mess lol. Thanks for bringing and sharing this news with us brother, great job covering the story and bringing the receipts as well!
Side note: I know this news is regarding KMS, but I feel like even Nexon America is and always has been disingenuine regarding their numbers as well.
This is a big scandal I heard about it and didn’t think it was this bad
Literally 2 days into 2024. Incredible.
MSEA: We apologise for the oversight and regretfully inform you we will not be able to compensate cubes as Red and Black Cubes have been removed. Here's another DMT!
Msea: and here's new uni cube that for sure will fit your dmt needs 😊
Pay up sohais hahahahaha
@@romanling8297 more like we removed the chance of getting triple lines so here's a new cube (unicube) to get that last line 🤡
Msea : 1 Thank you box
I'm gonna assume you played MSEA after the flame probability scandal, because they took the flame probability scandal very seriously. Whales threatened to sue Asiasoft, people made police reports and business malpractice report to ATC(Association of Trade and Commerce). Unlike in Malaysia where law don't exist unless you are connected, people have gone to jail over mesos scam in Singapore. While Singapore doesn't have game specific laws like Korea and Japan do, these type of stuff will still get the company in deep water over business malpractice and lawsuits. Gaming companies have had their licenses revoked and banned by the government before, so it's not something Asiasoft or its Play Park subsidiary can pretend to not see. We ain't GMS.
How do they even compensate this, flames is one thing but like this is years and I mean years worth of compensation. And cubes in the server probably won’t even get any form of compensation especially not in gms, so like this is beyond sad.
they probably can't and won't. the only remotely fair compensation would be a full refund of NX/meso spent on all cubes, but that would obviously destroy the game...
beyond sad only describes players who don't even think of quitting despite controversy after controversy. always just thinking of compensation so they can continue feeding their addiction.
@ohohona sometimes people just enjoy things, but for gms, there won't be any compensation. In fact, we either get our rates nerfed or get nothing. I just like the game as a time killer. It's fun, and I have friends. I'm sure some are addicted but I have fun
@@poppinbubblez702 yeah you can enjoy whatever you like, unfortunately nexon also understands that and is intentionally exploiting people who enjoy their product. if you're still enjoying it then great, carry on. there are people getting mad and upset at every single update which comes with multiple nerfs and also a major controversy every few months, yet somehow they are still throwing time and money at it like they can't find anything else to enjoy
I mean this shit was so obvious same with star force rates
So if this has been happening since 2011 how does this effect us today, is this still happening?!
Maybe watch the Video?
@johomanjo I watched it in full and was still confused, that's why I asked what I asked.
All i want is for a big lawsuit to come after them
Somacguffin's maplestory aniamtikn series "white lady muriel" was a headsup of what maplesotry is doing
we made it 48 hrs into 2024 lads
Where does the fine go to?
I'm not surprised. Most players had a suspicious feeling something didn't feel right with the cubing stats, because some stats were the same recurring pattern and it would alternate the same pattern type of stats when the item was re-cubed. This is the same for those meso pouches in the NX cash shop when you were able to buy it. I've seen the exact amount of mesos when you open them and the chances of getting the exact same amount of mesos was possible. Basically the RNG didn't feel it was truly RNG and I am not surprised of this hefty fine from making players gamble.
I wonder if this is why my hero rolled 3l magic atk% 5 times ok my emblem...still haven't seen 3l %atk yet 😢
compensation time LETS GO
what is the flame incident?
are the trucks otw?
Maplesea has also stopped announcing the ban or update the ban waves in the website for 7 years now. Feel free to hack as long as gameguard doesnt detect, you're good!
Yeah they don't care man
Don't forget your MVP red buff, those makes you invisible to the system :3
Maplestory so deeply rooted in peoples lives... i think only straight deletion of all progress would be the only way every1 would quit
lmao so many people's first thought is just compensation so they can continue playing and spending despite repeatedly being conned by nexon, they don't even register quitting as an option...
people would unironically just flock to private servers instead 😂😂😂
i remembered that I got downvoted sooo harrdd in the maplestory reddit for stating this in one of the post about cubes in the past
Please investigate Maplesea as well thanks.
I live in NYC and my luck has always unbelievably bad for the last 15 years. Would a VPN help me?
I can only assume MS is just going to give everyone a bunch of in-game stuff hoping people will just move on or whatever
5 15mins 2x exp coupon, 3 miracle circulators and 5 none inter account transferable 5k medal of honor, take it or leave it!
Does this mean Cosmetic Gachas could be rigged too?
They never learn man idk anymore players being cheated is rly sad.
Will it be implied to “MapleStory Mobile” ?
YESS compensation round 2
Reason y I dun spend on games ESPECIALLY Maplestory since you need to pay to get STRONG
They knew they were gonna get caught and they have to "apologize" but no way they intended to.
We need CPIB to investigate MSEA...
GMS: "We will be issuing compensation to all players in the form of a Large Bebe Box."
It better contains 1M maple points 😤
@@CueCN nah, just 100 power elixir
30 exp coupons
ofc 15 min coupons tho, can't be too convenient@@g1gabytez
@@zijungan7541Each are unstackable too
Looking forward to a exp bebe box compensation
This is bad they need to give at least 8 4x exp 15 minutes tickets.
and 5000 spell trace
so… there was flame compensation WHAT ABOUT CUBE COMPENSATION
So nexon got fine and where the fine money go? It doesnt go back to users anyway.
Good thing we play on reboot haha. I cannot see myself paying for cubes
This is why it's imperitive I get help to erect my latest version MapleStory Private Server with the latest... everything!
Lmao. I sure love yet hate this game.
So, did we got some compensation??
Incredibly unlikely GMS sees anything from this. Our Tier up rates have been around 5x higher than KMS for almost 10 years.
A bebe box 😂
A lot of company's do this & also can afford to pay the fine, it doesn't hurt them in the short run & Long run because they know people will always buy in. Its more Popular in the East than the west sooo it doesn't matter.
sad to hear such a Nostalgic game I used to play growing up, but those who do still play, keep at it hold Nexon accountable.
And yet people will continue not only playing the game, but also giving Nexon money.
imagine this happen to maplesea too…..
Yeah i mean, how can i trust the cube system if i cant even trust the star force probabilities. I just wish someone would buy maple and fix it
The fine was 11.6 billion!!! Holy shit
Good fined to stingy Nexon. Should investigate MSEA too!
happy new year, where are my NL buffs !!! the class needs some love already
nexon got caught again what a surprise lol
whats a horse power? in maplestory
This company keep proving why they are not a clown, but the entire circus instead. Wow
They should go to jail
probably DMT was a scam too LOLOL waste $$ where our compensation?
imagine every DMT they lowered the rates by half and "doubled it " 🤡
Not only the cube rate is scam, Gacha and Golden Apple items are shittt we are paying like $1.5 to get a potion, shitty pots, all the old school useless items etcs? piss me off ~~~~
Lmao. What a way to start off the new year! 🎉
Nexon: oops, now let’s milk our players to make up for the fine!
"We're sorry we lied about the cube rates. We'd like to make it up to our players with a limited-time cube sale!"
No que no había presupuesto para arreglar al Jett?
wow the FTC actually doing there job😲
I swear once a week a new nexon being scummy incident pops up
guys we have to uproar to get a compensation
They should have check moneysoft too
Right now moneysoft ownself check ownself 🤡🤣
They every week new rate according to market 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Are we even surprised?
I think this going public will result in more long-term quality changes for KMS and GMS.
maple players cope so hard
They only had to pay a fine of 8.9m USD... they made at least 10x more then that from doing this. Its a win for the business they don't care
@@ZephrymWOWthere’s a few kms players that have spent that much alone
I thought this a 4 years ago and I wish it were true
i love how the thought of quitting doesn't even cross some people's minds one bit...
Manipulating cube rates? I'm more concerned with my 10 dupes on Premium surprise Boxes before I get the one I wanted.
Compensation about to go off
Again? Didnt they get caught quite some time ago trying to manipulate flames? U would think they learnt their lesson from the prev time they got caught but they havent
I hit legendary Bpot on 4 cubes, lol
They manipulate Ssb also, you can get repetitively wack items but not repetitively good items. they all not 2%
Are we going to get a huge compensation package again? Lmao.
I mean, everybody knew there’s something shady with cubes, sf.everything % related… it’s just that it doesn’t hit GMS players hard as KMS players cuz most players are playing reboot.
whelp so the ticket i sent a while back questioning the cube rate were justified, not surprised they also tried to gaslight me when i did lmao.
On*
This makes me reeeeeally sus about the 2.1% item destruction I've hit several times before even a 50% success rate SUCCEEDED
NEXON: damn we got caught, too bad we won't get ban like how we ban others
Just 3 days into 2024 and we wildin’ already
Wonky why?!
I cant wait for the real sf rates to be dropped.
I was always a skeptic of cubes from the time they released.. they should check scroll rates now
Not suprise Nexon did these.
it's class action time
[MapleTip] Being unlucky is not a bug, because it is a feature
Nexon: it is our game, we do whatever tf we want. we will do it again but notify you in fine print. booyah
Bebe box incoming
