MapleStory

The world of gaming had taken gamers to this question, Maplestory, or Runescape. Now, the world of runescape is a 3-d experience, although it IS a browser game which means you don't have to download anything. It has been improved a lot ever since its release 5 years ago (or something). From the graphics, to the quests themselves, runescape has been filled with many surprises. When you start of, you must first complete the tutorial, then they send you of on to your quest. The whole concept of runescape basically is, fight till you die and become stronger, this is probably more of a medieval like game. Maplestory is really a whole different story, its starts after you download the content, the speed of the download depends on the condition of your computer. Mapelstory is played in 2-d or 2- Dimension, it takes on the traits of anime and classic japenese cartoon action. Maplestory has a more basic story line but you may change how the story goes. Weapons, clothes, and popularity is all important factors in the world of maplestory. Maplestory has a lot of updates so you have to redownload the game ever so often.It kind of takes on a high school act if you ask me. When you first begin, again you have to start a tutorial. then you are sent off, but first you must pick a class. Theif, Magician, Warrior, and Bowman. Most people choose Theif or Warrior. Now, to answer your question i will have to say, if you like 3-d experience, freedom, and your own way of doing things then, i would pick runescape. If you want classic 2-d, Japanese art, mild violence, and a story line, then Maplestory it is. If you want more info then contact SolsticeChen

I would say neither, because in maple story you just train and train for hours and boss have like over 10000+ hp, but you get more weapons and armor and etc than runescape. But if you die you'll lose exp you work hard for. Runescape is boring, because you just click and click. If your a member it would be better. Runescape is more creative. But if u die you'll lose most of your items. The graphic is poor. Both maplestory and runescape is a waste of money. In maplestory unless it's eyes and hair the cash items expire in 90 days. In runescape you have to pay $5 for every month to be a member, so you can't fully experience the game w/o paying monthly. You can get easily hack in runescape. You can get hack in maplestory if your dumb and give away your account info for money.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Maplestory is an ok game but it gets boring. Runescape is a far much better game than maplestory and its not boring and you don't just click and click. the graphics for runescape arent poor, maplestory graphics are 2D and rs is 3D. you CANNOT easily get hacked in runescape unless your dumb for giving somebody your password and if you DO get hacked, theres so many different waves you go through to get your account back and it works 98% of the time. runescape is a really great game, the 1st best mmo in the world ATM right now.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I agree with the second person runescape is a really good game if you grasp the action and whats going on at first when you first begin to play that's where most people go wrong then blame the game and say its boring like the first week or day they began to play. That happened to me too but if it wasn't for my friend i would have never began to play again. the point is that the best strategy to play runescape and have the most fun is to play with the sound and volume on although its kind of lame and make sure you play with a friend you know or met. Trust me because skilling can take a long time and you will need someone to talk to also playing in a group you can do lootshare and group quest also clan wars. which is fun for clans of 30 plus. overall i say runescape is a really fun game but you just need to know when to stop playing or it will begin to seem like a online chore when all you do is train and train

I personally think MapleStory is better than RuneScape. At the same time.. Runescape cannot be compared to MapleStory because one is 3D and the other is 2D. 2D and 2D is more equal match to be compared to first of all and same goes for 3D and 3D. I played MapleStory ever since it was released in the US (5 yrs) and it's really fun, cute, and addicting. I like the anime styled graphics. Maple gets a lot of patch ups and has been getting more job choices lately. Runescape for me was a horrible experience. My cousin recommended me it and it was boring and graphics were horrible but that was many years back so who knows. I still would say MapleStory is better for a 2D game and there are other 3D games out there I played before and my experience was more enjoyable than Runescape.

with my experince, both were epic games though runescape did put me off gaming for a while

Graphics: Runescape's graphics isn't that bad, actually, it is 3D, a lot more detailed than maplestory and a lot more realistic.

combat: maplestory wins for this one, runescape is quite repetitive with combat.

Skills:Runescape has a variety of skills which revolved around your character and will guide your character throughout the game whereas maplestory's skills are mostly combat which can get really boring if you do nothing but kill monsters.

Gameplay: equal, you decide but i reckon runescape has more variety.

Community: both games have a lot hackers and there are areas where people spam words and you can't see your character. The report system in runescape is definetly better than maplestory's as in runescape you can report as many times as you like (not purposely) but in maplestory, you can only report once a day with a fee of 300 mesos, sure its not much but it makes it seem like its a priviliege to report and discouraging you.

i played maplestory(and i am gioing to play it again.

rs is a 3d game and maple 2d. that you can't compare.

with 2 d mmropg is maby maplesotry one of the best.

rs is for an 3d game not very good i played many 3d games but hey were much better and some of the were not so good.(sorry for my bad English)

_________________________________

Runescape is a starter MMO. You get hooked to it until you get bored, usually about level 50 when the Free to Play content runs out, so you have to get membership ($5 a month). If you get membership the novelty of it doesn't last too long. After completing a few low level member quests you have to spend hours killing enemies until you level up high enough to play higher level quests. This would be fine if battles were exciting. Nope. You click the enemy to attack and click potions to heal. Magic has more options, but it is expensive to be trained like this, ranged is... just horrible, which leaves you with repetitively whacking cows in boring old melee. So the reason I quit is clear. At this point the logical action made by most players is going to World of Warcraft (but that's a story for a different time.)

I have limited knowledge of Maplestory, I am a n00b. I haven't run into much problems as of yet, but there supposedly are tons of hackers. I would honestly just change channels (the game is divided into servers, or parallel worlds, and servers are divided into channels, which are parallel worlds you can hop between... That was badly worded, wasn't it?) Character creation and class choosing are innovative and fun. Combat is varied and exciting. And the world is just loony (The highlight of my Maplestory experience so far is riding a tiger into an army of living grape soda bottles. Really.) But the quests are horrible (Kill 120 living signposts to stop them from confusing people! [Actual quest.]) But what makes this funner than killing 120 RS cows is that it is fun. Combat in MS is fun. Combat in RS isn't. Of course the skills in RS are pretty awesome.. except the same thing comes into account. Clicking iron ore, clicking a trail, click ing a furnace, and clicking anvil is not fun. Alternatively, jumping around a 2D battlefield, trying to kill a swarm of blimps (Once again, real moment) is fun. Graphics, gameplay, community, and all the other factors should be thrown out the window for this. All that matters is which one is funner (If you think I'm clearly pro MS, I'm not. levels 1-50 in RS are super fun. I met tons of nice people and ate several rotten kebabs at bad times.)

TL;DR: RS is fun at first and then it gets boring. Maplestory combat is better, with more options and gear.

Go to a Pet Shop or Merchant.

Buy Revitalizers(1,000 Mesos) and use them every time your mount gets above 30 tiredness(check this in your character info) give him one of those revitalizers and you'll get some exp.

Max level is 30

to teach people not to accuse people that they did when its really someone else too play a scam so they all can kill each other.

Make sure you download the full client, other-wise it will not work, and make sure your virus-protecter is on and you trust the maplestory client.

Good luck add me on it im Soulxohdang in Khaini :D

-Play a private server. So much easier.-

from LisasanXD

im just going to repeat the same answer as the previous one

if it doesn't work.. DUN BLAME ME!

well here it is:

at the bottom left of your screen, press start.

Then at the right side, theirs a "thing" called Computer

press it, and their will be a pop-up that has files C: and D:

Go to C: and click on your nexon folder

Click maplestory folder and then click GameLauncer (has the maplestory mushroom picture as an icon)

Another pop-up will show up saying [Go to Website] or [start game]

Press [Start Game] and it SHOULD work. Im working on windows Vista for your info XD GL~!

I would recommend only using the official maplestory website, any other website could give your computer unwanted hacking programs or viruses.

Your maplestory should get a patch up download when you hit the play button. That patch up will upgrade your version to the latest version that is released. Currently in March 2010, mapleglobal is at v83 so... if you missed version 75-83 i suggest you to uninstall and redownload your maple because missing too much patch ups will cause your maple to stop working. If you have version 80 for an example, you cant go backwards in versions. Just not possible.

Level 1-10, Maple Island.

Level 10-around 15, Job Quests

Do the class hat quest (Crocell, Andras, Etc.) for quick levels at 18

Level 20-30, Rotting Skeletons.

Level 30-50, CPQ

Level 50-60, Grind in the Ludi Clock Tower.

Level 60-80, Sea of Fog PQ or Pirate PQ

Level 80-90, Rex PQ and Magatia quests

Level 90-100 Rex PQ and Gallos or Captain & Kru.

Hope this helps.

Look up the monsters on global.hidden-street.net if you need to.

Well, It's like a really popular game! People hack to get cool and SUPER rare items for their Main Character so they can become like the richest character on MapleStory. If your against hacking, don't worry. MapleStory has all these brand new hacking detectors. :D Most hackers get banned for a month though. GMs are always watching. o.o"

According to a number of sources, genealogy is the number one hobby in North America and the fastest growing as well.

Go to the playstation 3 web site and select (support) on the left side of the page then select (error code) on right side of the page then input your code and sony will assist you in fixing the problem but most of the time you will be told to send in your ps3 (Dont due this without doing a little research it could save you time and money to solve this on your own).

post more questions about the problem give the message next time most of the codes come with a message this will make it easier for some one to help further easily.

hope this helped

To make pouches, you will need the required items to make the certain monster, a summon pouch ( can be bought form summon shop at taverly, or from Grand Exchange - Another player-).

Then you will need to go to an obelisk ( Taverly ) and click on it and then click the pouch you want to make.

Inside the subway where the blue slimes are. in the background, you will see trashcans. Double click on all of them and one of them will contain the doll.

The Thicket around beach III near lilth harbor. if he is not thr, try another channel. a lot of people kill him since he drops a rainbow shell. the rainbow shell turns u into a snail for an hour unless u get hit in snail form. once someone kills mano, it takes about 1 hour for him to spawn again since he is a boss. bosses are on timers. if you get up early in the morning, he will be in every cc. like maybe at 6:30 or so. i did this once, now i have 13 rainbow shells =P Hope this helps.

I founf a cave that leads to Qillia to Vales and is in a under ground tunnel and once you go there you can find chests that have rare items in it and lots of gold. But you need to find a key in the under ground tunnel.But what really helps you to find these keys are botts. the bots can help you find keys. So find them and get the rare items and gold

Maple Hill was the 5th anniversary of Maplestory. The event is gone, and so is Maple Hill. But they may re-open it on the next anniversary. And when they do, just find a Dimensional Portal at any town, and click on the icon to go to Maple Hill.

It depends what job you are in. For clerics, you should train in the Subway against Wraiths or do Orbis Party Quest. For mages, you can go to Florina Beach and train on Lorangs and Clangs by using the skill lightning. It's very effective on them. For assassins, training at the Golem Temple in Henesys, just the main one until about level 54 is pretty alright. Afterwards, i moved to the temple, to the Dark Stone Golems. There is better spawn in there and 30 more exp per kill. For levels 56-70, assassins should train at Coolie Zombies in El Nath, but it should be better if you start training on them when you're at least level 60. At level 60, you will make your way back to Victoria Island. Go to the very bottom map of the Sleepwood DUNGEON, not to be confused with the Ant Tunnel, and climb down the rope, and go to the platform with a flower on it, and press up underneath it. This map will be your home, even past the 3rd Job Advancement. It has one of the best spawn in the game, and the experience is wonderful.

If your video driver is already updated and you have already tried turning your firewall off then all you have to do to solve this -2147221000 problem is to install .Net framework 3.5

here is the link: :http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=21

if this still does not work then you will need to reinstall the game.

You must be a mage, and defeat Marbas, that demon. To do that you must go through a long string of quests, and then the ending one will be fighting marbas, and apon winning, you will receive the emblem and his head.. And you also must be lvl 40-

Throughout the years, Nexon may not realize that they are not not geniuses, but insane ones. They have recently been making classes like Demon Slayer where you can literally FLY in. or Mercedes when you have rapid-fire at level 30. So you can usually be assuming that the newest release is going to be the best. Phantom is coming soon, I think. Don't know what it is, but that sounds awesome! (when more updates are made to Maplestory can someone please update this?)

Well, you equip scrolls in maple by opening your item (use) window at the same time with your equipment window. Click and drag the scroll to the equipment you wish to scroll.

After signing up for maplestory and to activate your account, go to you email address that you signed up with and look for a mail regarding about maplestory sign up. Open it and it should have a code or a link to click to activate your account. If there is no mail, click the resend verifying code button. I hope you find it and enjoy your experience in playing maple!! :)
