Servers Getting Ready for the Summer
Summer of 2011 is set to be the biggest ever for Nexon. We are planning for the launch of Dragon Nest, social games, and BIG changes to the Nexon website. And of course, we’re also planning for fantastic updates to our current lineup of games. In anticipation of these additions, we’ll be performing a lot of preparation on the back end to ensure that our servers and hardware are ready for the expected increase in the number of people playing our games. Below is how maintenances will shape up in our build up to the summer months.

Question of the Week
E3 2011 ended Thursday, capping off a week of big announcements and sneak peeks in all things gaming. Of all the game features and updates announced at the show, is there one that you are particularly excited about? Would it work in Mabinogi?
In summer, the song sings itself. - William Carlos Williams
Here's what some of your fellow Mabinogians had to say:
gears 3, microsoft and minecraft teaming up, modern warfare 3 were probably the ones that stuck out for me. though i dont think that helps mabi out any :P i did enjoy the nexon stuff at PAX east though, got myself one of those spirit hoods, my girlfriend loves it :P - Chris Q.
Definitely has to be the Wii U! I've been a hardcore Nintendo fanatic ever since I was 5 years old, and it's really amazing to see how technology has changed in these past 10+ years. I'm a bit skeptic about the touch screen controller and h...ow games could be designed for it, but Nintendo always seems to find ways to surprise me, so I guess I'll just have to wait and see! Now would the new Wii U controller work in Mabinogi? Well, I'm not really sure about that. I honestly don't see a reason why we would need an extra touch screen controller, since the keyboard seems to already work fine with me, but it'd sure be awesome to see something like that implemented! - Jennifer H.
Nothing can beat an original story line with a lot of action involved and an unexpected ending :D - Jose O.
