    Hello Maplers,

    Before I begin, I'd just like to thank every single one of you for participating in the MapleLegends Open Beta. You've all helped us out immensely by providing feedback, reporting bugs, or simply just voting. We've received so much support from players both new and old, and we cannot thank all of you enough for helping us improve the MapleLegends experience.

    The development of MapleLegends began in August of last year with the goal of creating a GMS-Like server that brings you back to the prime of MapleStory, and provides not only a high quality nostalgic experience but also content never-before-seen in the private server community.

    After months of work, we are proud to announce a release date for MapleLegends. Of course, this doesn't mean that we are done with our development. The development of our server will continue even after our release as we attempt to provide you with exciting new content and an overall improved gameplay experience.

    The announced MapleLegends' release date will be...
    April 1, 2015

    I know that many of you have waited a long time for our release, with our Open Beta beginning over 3 months ago, and our Closed Beta beginning more than 4 months ago; however, we wanted make sure that we were able to provide a high quality gaming experience from start to finish, rather than rushing it. We hope that you have enjoyed what we have offered thus far, and that you will enjoy what we we have in store in the future.

    Here's our future plan for MapleLegends:

    1. New Installer
    All Open Beta data will be obsolete after release. We kindly ask for everyone to re-download our installer with the latest files and updates since significant additions and changes have been made over these past 3 months. We will be providing you with this in the coming days.

    2. New Content
    We still have a lot in store after the release. Our goal is still to have everything from v.62 GMS available and working and we have no plans to stop anytime soon. We will also be providing new content and events to make your gaming experience more enjoyable.

    3. Donations
    Without proper funding, it is very difficult for a server to grow. The donations received will be used for the purpose of improving server specs, advertising, and other server-related activities. MapleLegends will make sure that there will never be pay2win content or donation content that gives advantages to a user. We will be providing a mix of post v.62 cash shop items for both donors and non-donors, making everything as fair as possible for both parties. Additionally, all donor items can be transferred with our Cash Shop storage, allowing them to be used on any of your characters on same account. Donations will be through Paypal and Bitcoins.

    4. Applications
    After our release, MapleLegends will be looking for players who are interested and suitable to join our staff. Our hiring process will be very stringent and we are looking for serious applications only. Currently, our greatest need is for Game Moderators and GFX Designers. In the coming days, we will have a section opened for staff applications.

    5. Our VPS
    MapleLegends is currently being hosted in Belgium. While our VPS is very fast for European players, we are aware that our players come from all around the world. Some players living farther away may experience slight delays due to latency. It is difficult for us to make everybody happy, but we will try to improve this over time. Our overall server is very stable with a record up-time of 8 days (before we had updates) and it should be very rare for you to get stuck online.

    6. The Wipe
    The specifics of the wipe are not fully finalized, but we will not be wiping your account information. What will be wiped for sure are all character stats, levels, items, etc. Everyone will start from the same point at the release. Open beta testers who met the level requirements necessary to receive a reward will receive them when the first enter the game.

    Once again we cannot thank everybody enough for the amazing support you've all provided us during on beta testing. We made the top 10 (rank 9) on GTOP while still in beta which is extremely impressive. We sincerely hope you guys enjoyed playing during beta and that you will continue to enjoy what we have to offer in the months and years to come. Hopefully we'll see both new and old faces following the release and that you are able to successfully re-experience the good old days of MapleStory.

    Thank you for the continuous support!
