Maplestory was like this one. They had a patch and had a billion and one bugs in it and Nexon just left it up and took it down when they found the problems. Obviously the more time they spend on a game, the time they can find problems with it and since Maplestory is such a BIG game to Nexon they are obvoiously gonna spend those most time on it.

What do our buying pets/premium services/premium shop items/character cards go towards. Take a few minutes to think about that and then maybe you'll realize how stupid that statement is.
I say its not very stupid. Nexon isn't P2P which means its the players choice when deciding to get NX to then fund Nexon. You aren't paying them to update the game, you paying to get benefits that other players don't.

What I see from this is that NexonNA was troubled and stuck by these bugs, and instead of fixing them before they released the major update, went ahead and released it and pissed off a lot of people. The working parts aren't the parts people want. They want G12. They want to be able to do quests. Sure, the new pet and cards are nice, but it isn't the content people have been anticipating, now is it? No.
I want to do this, I want that, why can't you give me this, I DEMAND IT! SO GIVE IT TO ME! <- 80% of the people who are playing Mabinogi are thinking, saying and/or preaching that. Wouldn't you rather have a game that you can play then one that you can't? Everyone has been living without G12 since the dawn of time, so whats with all this complaining? Oh and I did forget to mention which was pretty silly of me but when Nexon merges the patch files to the live server then test it they will get different results when they make the live server live. Hence the bugs. So maybe these bugs are new which requires first an analysis of these bugs, then the teams have to find a solution to them which takes a long time. Now if you can't be happy with what you've gotten then take it back and get it fixed and just do something in the mean time.

Programming DOES take time. Programming IS a *****. They should have waited another week or two while they fixed what needed to be fixed. The Mabinogi community would have lived. And WE ARE MISSING OUT. Did you think while you were typing, sweetheart? My guess is no
Fixed...Live testing and Offline testing is different. You can't test something accurate when offline mode only has 10 - 20 people testing vs online when over 10000+ people are playing. Bugs can appear due to how many people are on the server and not all of them are self repairing. Hence the bugs. And from I've been seeing is that all these bugs only happen after a patch happens, and to have a patch go live means all bugs and everything else has been tested so something must of went wrong after it was live, not during when it was being patched.
"WE ARE MISSING OUT!" Are we really? If Halo Reach was postponed a month, are we missing out? If CoD: Black Ops was delayed for a year, are we missing out? If the gen of gaming consoles are delayed for 5 years, are we missing out?
HOW can you be missing out when the content hasn't even been released?
FFFF run out of time. Be back later to finish this off.
