    I see nothing there about having 100 fame, or about paying a % to the guild leader (like a tax). That's good.

    And @Eric: We've been getting things pretty fast. I dunno. Nothing should really take long. Only tranlation and some simple changes to things if they want it. Nothing should take long to implement if we're not getting it first.

      Uh, those plants don't look any different from the ones near Ellinia. And we wouldn't get kMS's specific area, we'd get the theme park and hopefully Cody would either gtfo of Hene or he'd be who you talk to if you wanna get to the park. But yeah, level 80 equips is a possibility, and hopefully they'll add some new pets (pandapandapanda), but I really hope they add a new map or two. Every good spot in Ossy and Victoria is crowded, even on Bera. =\

      Oh, and I've been seeing some anti-I/L sentiment lately. As much as I hate to admit it, F/P mages are not the absolute best no matter what. We get the strongest mob attack (explosion) and due to poison damage, we can outdamage a I/L mage using thunderspear (unless they're on a lit-weak monster, but we won't have many of those until Ludi comes out). However, Ice Strike is the most far-reaching and spammable mob attack ever. Only Dragon Roar has higher range, if I'm not mistaken. And just to prove how eXtreme the skill is, I got a crappy SS for you of when I was running to Balrog last night. A high level I/L mage showed up and jumped up onto the platform at the end of Sanc3. Observe:



      I didn't jump down in time to get a good SS, but you see that dead taurospear? You see that ice mage up top? Yeah, she sat and shot it with Ice Strike until it died, without endangering herself at all. There are several spots in the sanctuary maps where you can snipe tauros (and any cold eyes that jump up) with ice strike. It may not be as powerful as explosion, but it's a bit faster and has huge range. So if you're an I/L wiz, don't get discouraged, just look to the beautiful future. ;D

      EDIT: Btw, click on the "surprise" on the right to look at the Guild info. Here's some snippets:

      1. Requirements to Build a Guild
      A party of exactly 6 members and 1,500,000 mesos. Once you have met this requirement, go to Heracle in Orbis. The party leader must pay the 1,500,000 guild registration fee.
      Banditcom will have to make it if the 100 fame req is in Global, too, but I suggest we all chip in for the 1.5m cost. It's not much for us higher leveled kids to chip in (150k each for the first 10 players), but some of you may want to start saving up for it. Also, check out the prices for expanding the guild list. 3.5m mesos to expand from 25 to 30 players. Start saving up, guys. ;D

        I hope they add something to guilds so Maple Story won't become one of those games you won't have to shell out a bajillion mesos just so you can have a guild chat option and a pretty little picture next to your name (after you've paid about 10 million mesos). They didn't really mention any advantages to having a guild, the announcement pretty much just says "Hey, look everyone, guilds!"

            In game earlier we pretty much came to a decision. Seems that the initial six (I think it was something like: me, noah, bandit, oni, and someone else) will split the cost of starting it, then anyone who wants to join in addition pays for part of the extension of the guild.

            Either way, it can go up to 35 or something so there's definitely gonna be enough room total.

                    I'm starting to recall reading somewhere that this safari place was kms exclusive also now that you mention it. Well those still don't look like Ellinia plants to me, and I've never really believed that we would get a "Theme Park." I personally think that that was just a quest to give us a Maple Flag and maybe get a little bit of money out of the economy. If we get a theme park then I also want to see Blackbull's house, I mean I did his quest too. Well even if it is not the safari-looking place (wish I knew what it was called) I think it might be an outdoor type place. Or who knows we might get ludi, or we might get nothing at all.

                    Oh and to Afrobean, I don't know too much about the Kms map but it looks like the have a darker forest area with little blue flames (which from what I understand turn into some kind of golem when they are killed, kind of like how a Jr. Yeti transforms) so it is very possible that there may also be undeads in the darker parts of the world. I do not know for sure though, so don't take my word for it.

                    Edit: Emccky I have been asking around and from what I hear, guild chat is one of the features such as all, party, and buddy chat. Sounds legitimate to me, but I'm not 100% sure.

                        The plants are not in the safari. It's a doubled / mirrored image of stuff from Henesys.

                        We will be getting more than just Guilds, but how much more is yet to be seen. They have one (two, maybe) more announcement slot to fill up (cover up pets), so we might see something else coming out soon.

                        Here's hoping.

                          Uh.. I definately in the first 10, considering I was one of the first FFR people on bera, and if there was a list of the highest level'd ffr people on bera, I'd be 5th or so.

                          Anyway, I hope the new maps (>_>) have some ice/lit weak monsters, because I'm sick of this "the only good places to train are lorangs and fdrakes" bs.

                            To those complaining about not being one of the first in the guild: relax. You'll be in eventually. The fact that you don't play as much as others and are, therefore, not as high of a level means that you don't deserve it as much as they do.

                            Hopefully, the big thing will be new maps though. It'd be lame if it was just more high level equips. Well... I guess it'd be cool for some of ya, but I want new maps to clear out coolies a bit; I don't care about people doing more damage as they KS me.

                            One other thing: Why is there still no storage in Orbis? I'd think Wizet would have added that by now.

                              Guilds actually look really cool, but there's going to have to be much decision-making before it actually comes together.

                              Here are a few of my ideas concerning the guilds:

                              1) Guild dues are 500k. After this, you will not have to pay another meso to the guild. This amount should cover all expansion (members and otherwise) to the guild, and the leader should put all extra guild dues in secondary leader's storage (see 3) so that they are not spent accidentily or considered to be an easy loan. The extra guild dues are not to be touched.

                              2) Leader should not be the first guy with 100 fame. Leader should be the one considered most trustworthy and most willing to lead the guild to the end. Leader should also be one who is willing to play subsidizer for the guild should new features come out and money becomes short. Best way to go about this would be an election. Also, if the one who wins does not have 100 fame, guild funds should be used to get them to that level.

                              3) Secondary leader should play secretary. Someone who is organized, can keep track of funds, and plan ahead. Should also have requirements of leader. This character will also handle the guild's money.

                              4) First ten members should be highest ten levels. Don't give me BS about "but I was here first!". Don't give me BS about "but my character type levels slowly!". Level means devotion to the game, and level means how much you play. No point in having you first if you aren't going to participate in guild functions much.

                              5) Logo should be blue/white/orange. ffr pride rite?

                              6) My name proposal is "FFRmy", but I'm uncaffienated and will probably think of something better later. I can already see people thinking, "Oh, you mean like Final Fantasy Rmy? I LOVE CLOUD OMG."

                              7) Cool ranks:
                              • Leader: Alpha
                              • Secondary Leader: Beta (better than secretary)
                              • Senior member: Gamma
                              • Regular Member: Omega
                              • Junior Member: Subordinate


                              EDIT:

                              8) Don't come to decisions in-game. I say this because I find it annoying as hell that I didn't get a say in whatever you were talking about just because I'm drowning in end-of-semester work, and I think everyone would feel this way if it happened to them.

                                Personally, I don't think I should be in the first 10 mainly due to the fact that I don't play on my f/p mage. I think they should implement the loudspeaker feature(not sure what it is called) such as in jms where you pay nx cash so that you can send a message to everyone in the world. People in jms use it to sell crap, and I thought it was kinda cool. I don't really care about the guilds really because there really isn't any benefit from making one except for the little emblem. So, I probably will join the guild on Bera later when I have more money and when I get bored of my archer (especially since I gave everything to Chromer XD). Level 47 at 20%...
