A Million Enlist For Combat Arms

3:40AM Mike Fahey | Nexon America isn’t just for tweens looking to play cutesy, anime-inspired MMO titles anymore. Their online multiplayer shooter Combat Arms, launched in open beta form just this past July, now boasts over one million registered users. To celebrate, Nexon is releasing two new patches that add a new game mode and map to the action, along with new weapons and special event gear for Halloween. The new map, Waverider, takes place in a European hilltop town and will be the largest map in the game. The new game mode is called Bounty Hunter, and involves one player with a bounty on his head earning in-game money depending on how long he can escape from everyone else. More »

MapleStory Expands With Crimsonwood Keep

5:00AM Mike Fahey | Nexon America has unveiled a massive expansion to the world of MapleStory in the Crimsonwood Keep expansion, which allows players to venture through the newly expanded Phantom Forest on the continent of Masteria, into the new areas found around the Crimsonwood Mountain. The update adds 31 new maps, 11 new enemies, and 12 new story-focused quests, while also adding a new skill for pets and improving the language filters so younger players can keep their exposure to dirty words contained to TV, movies, and what they overhear their parents saying. MapleStory will be updated with the new content tonight at 9PM Pacific, with the whole process taking about 9 hours, which means getting the kids to bed tonight will be that much easier. The adult players will just have to suffer. Hit the jump for more info! More »
