[Official] Vindictus


Recommended Posts

Ok so East is running great, so lets officially call it East server.. Everyone roll east, hop in the Mumble server posted in the first post and add everyone to friends you see also listed in the first post and lets get our game on.

I modded the list and added my in-game name :shiftyninja:

However, I don't want to hijack your post Bei337, so I would suggest adding a notice that this is North America only and they IP block other regions.

Interesting... I haven't had an issue with internet lag, but my

graphics are definitely not fluid yet. I have a pretty damn nice

machine, too. Ack.

No internet lag here either, no visual lag either for me, and I'm only running it on a laptop....its a nice laptop though, has an i5 M520, with a 5650 Mobility GPU and 4GB of ram, running it on the "Normal" setting (5 of 8), not the highest but the game looks great and runs great for me.

As for combat... AWESOME. I broke a barrel, picked up the lid

which is like the size of a small rug, and smashed the baddie

over the head with it. I also kicked a guy off the tower in the

prelude. Oh yea!

I know......combat is so fun, in the prelude part, when you have to carry the woman, I just kicked the guys off the tower and what not instead of putting her down to fight. Second boss fight though, the guy smashed me into a pillar which broke my helmet and broke the pillar into many large pieces, so I picked up a piece and smashed it over his head. The combat in this game is just better than any other I have played in recent times. Its like arcade-style fighter game combat but in a 3D world and what not.

Also, I found an option that, when disabled, reverts the combat from attack where camera is pointing to attack in character direction (regardless of camera direction) like I wanted awhile back. Oddly enough, after playing with that setting changed, I found myself turning it back on to attack in camera direction. The way mobs come at you, you don't have precise enough attack angles when using WASD to attack, the mouse lets you precisely target specific areas around your character. But, the option is there if anyone wants to try it for themselves (Options -> Controls tab -> Advanced Settings -> Attack in the direction of the camera).

Haha, sneaky sneaky dev :p

I've updated the post to reflect the IP block policy. We are firm on the EAST server, so everyone who wish to play with us please create(or recreate) a character on that server and please don't forget to post your in game name here!

Additional keys are sent.

I had the client downloaded and finally gave it a go last night but both the servers were down :(

How's everyone else getting on ingame? I know a few of you have been playing it

There was a 3-hour maintenance session noted on their main page scheduled to begin about 22 minutes before you post. So you just picked the wrong time to try to play is all.

First Impressions: Awesome.

However, yes the combat isn't your typical fighting, however it's not hard either. I picked the girl with the shield, they talk about hard to control. I literally run around right clicking, left clicking and hitting E then right click. I run out of stamina but Im usually behind the monster and not getting hit anyways.

I find the game quite easy at the early levels. The first set of battles give you 60 minutes to complete, the groups I was in would do them in less than 10 minutes (Unless we lagged out).

What is fun to do, is have monsters kill each other, I had a boss destroy one of it's own guards. The boss wound up to hit, I ran past with a guard chasing me and the boss smoked the guard.

All in all though, Im hooked for the time being.

I agree...i wasn't expecting a whole lot when I went into this but I must admit, it's a lot of fun so far.

    • Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.
    • You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?
    • Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
