Video explanation
"MapleStory N" in big trouble?! Is it true that thousands of people are being kicked out of the game every day? A simple explanation for beginners!
Hello everyone! I'm John, your GameFi Navigator!
Did you know that a new version of the super famous online game "MapleStory" has been released recently?MapleStory N"!
This game is not just a new release.Web3" It uses a new technology that seems somewhat futuristic. (Web3 is a new form of the Internet, where everyone can manage information together. In the world of games, the items you get can really become "your own" and you can potentially exchange them with other people!)
MapleStory N just launched in May this year, and MapleStory fans and people who like new things all over the world were excitedly waiting for it. However, it seems that it has been facing a big problem since the launch... What on earth is going on?
What's going on? Cheaters are appearing one after another in MapleStory N!
In fact, in the world of MapleStory N, there are a lot of people who are "cheating" by not following the rules and trying to get an advantage in the game, which is becoming a problem.
Specifically, there are people who do bad things like this.
- Cheating:This means cheating in the game by rewriting the game's program or using special tools to become incredibly strong, teleport, etc.
- Using the bot:A "bot" is a program that allows a computer to automatically control a character without human intervention. By using this, the in-game character can continue to defeat monsters and collect items on its own, even while the player is sleeping.
- Exploiting the game system:It is the act of finding small mistakes or unexpected behaviors (called bugs) that are inherent to the game program and using them to your own advantage. For example, it is the act of illegally obtaining items that would normally be unavailable.
According to the news, the accounts (registered information for playing games) that are committing these fraudulent activities are actually...Thousands every dayIt's surprising that such a situation has been discovered. It's very annoying for players who are seriously following the rules and enjoying the game, and it makes the game itself less fun.
The management team's firm response! "We will not tolerate any fraud!"
Of course, the company that develops and operates the game (in this case, Nexon, a major gaming company) is not sitting idly by as they deal with this difficult situation.
Every day, we will remove accounts that have been found to be fraudulent."BAN" in the thousandsIt seems that they are taking strict measures.
A "BAN" means to stop using your account and prevent you from playing the game. It's like being expelled.
This is a necessary measure to ensure that the majority of other players can enjoy the game with peace of mind, and to maintain the fairness of the game. It will be a difficult task, but I look forward to seeing the management team's efforts!
Why is there so much fraud? What are the unique circumstances of Web3 games?
You might be wondering, "But why do so many people cheat when a new game starts?"
Especially in Web3 games like "MapleStory N," the items and characters you obtain in the game can be used toNFT(NFT is like a "digital certificate of ownership" that proves that the item is really yours. It uses a technology called blockchain.)
These NFT items can potentially be bought and sold with other people in a market outside of the game. In other words, if you get a lot of powerful items in the game, they could turn into real money!
This expectation of "potentially making money" is thought to be one of the main reasons that some people turn to fraud. It's a sad reality that when money is involved, people will inevitably think of bad things...
This is not just a problem with MapleStory N, but a common issue faced by many Web3 games, especially popular and popular games. While new technologies and mechanisms have great potential, they also bring with them new types of problems.
Message from John
Well, in any world, when something new starts, there's always a lot of commotion. Especially when it comes to a popular Web3 game like "MapleStory N," the attention it gets is so high that it's easy for people to try to take advantage of it.
I really admire the development and management teams who fight against fraudulent use every day to make the game a fun and safe place. I know it will continue to be a tough task, but I hope that you will continue to build a great gaming environment that many players can truly enjoy. Keep up the great work!
