[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.

    • You're right that it does not follow the plain meaning of the word, but in this context, it is a legal term defined in 49 U.S.C. Kind of how "wire fraud" laws apply even if a physical wire was not used. Given that it is codified in law, and it isn't just automotive journalists that don't understand evolving technology, I highly doubt congress would change a well understood term just because technology makes the term slightly less actuate.
    • This is exactly why I keep saying we are not ready for human free self-driving. These little "bugs" are may seem like random one-offs. There was also the Waymo that drove between police with drawn weapons and the suspect they were pointing them at. From a software perspective it is easy to understand how those extremely rare situations may not have been programed for, but that is the point. If AI needs to be told to watch out for every possible contingency, then it can never be successful. There will always be the possibility of a first encounter that the AI needs to understand to avoid.

    • Recycle Bin has been broken for literal YEARS now. The setting to delete files older than 30 days from the bin which is on by default doesn't even work. I have files older than 4 months in it and they are just there still...
