sent u guys the keys that I got, hf

Please check the OP first before sending out keys... In that case, I've already sent them keys as soon as they posted the requests. Thank you for sharing though! :D

Thanks to those of you who PM'd me the spare keys that you got elsewhere. I now have ~10 keys to give away! I'm sure there will be a new wave of players looking for keys tomorrow :)

soz m8 I kinda skipped a lot through the post while I was under the omg omg omg vindi beta today effect :)

So has anyone downloaded the game yet? 1.9 gb isn't so bad I suppose. Installing now, probably going to be around a 5 or 6 gig install total.

The install is actually just around 1.9 gb. It's either really good or really bad compression, hahaha.

@revelized: Key sent!

Going to bed. Will keep checking back and sending out more keys throughout tomorrow!

Not sure if anyone has noticed this yet, but the Early Access and possibly the Open Beta too are ONLY available to people in the US and Canada: http://forum.nexon.net/Vindictus/forums/thread/5684472.aspx

So if you are outside the US, despite having a key, you will not be able to play, sadly.

EDIT: As they are using IP blocking to enforce it, chances are at least some IPs might show the wrong location (and possibly outside the US), so if you live in the US and cannot log on once they release it, be sure to send a support ticket.

There were people who played in the Closed Beta that do not live in the U.S. or Canada. If you were able to make an account and enter a key then you will be able to play in the open beta. At least, one would believe so.

Once the game comes out however, it will be limited to the U.S. and Canada. NexonEU is releasing it for other countries later in the year/early next year.

Hmmm, interesting......not sure if the GM is wrong or not, but I'm fairly certain that statement covers the open beta as well and not just release. Oh well, we will see later today.

Vindictus is an upcoming MMORPG that features Source engine with real time physics system.

http://vindictus.nexon.net/

Preview and videos of it:

http://mmohut.com/preview/vindictus

The early access beta starts September 15, and they are giving away beta keys to selected users.

The interesting part here is that each person that activates ONE beta key automatically gets TWO back!

I happen to have an extra key, so I'd like to start a beta key giveaway loop here on Neowin.

If you want a key, please reply to this thread, and I will PM you one.

RULE: Once you get your key from me, go activate it immediately, you will get 2 new ones via email, come back here and PM me at least one of those, and I shall distribute to the next person in the loop!

Let's get it started! :)

UPDATE: I have around ~10 keys left over from the good people here who sent keys back, please reply if you want one!

could be an automated message. if you read that thread people are saying they played cb from europe and other places.

Possibly, as it supposedly going to be US and Canada only at release, it may be part of their automated support system thats in place for release.

Hopefully others (outside the US and Canada) can play, but it won't surprise me if they can't.

Mine returns a server error trying to log into the client - there is only a choice of East and West servers

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones by Paul Hill Waymo, the self-driving car maker owned by Alphabet – the parent company of Google –, has recalled some of its fifth-generation Automated Driving Systems (ADS). It did so after some of its cars drove through closed construction zones. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the affected vehicles were capable of driving through a closed freeway construction zone and continuing to drive at speed. The listing on the NHTSA website says that Waymo is currently developing a solution to fix this issue, but in the meantime, freeway driving is being restricted. Waymo will update its ADS software so that vehicles can detect when they can avoid entering construction zones. According to the Safety Recall Report, on April 20, 2026, Waymo’s Field Safety Committee began meetings reviewing an event from April 11, 2026, and five events from April 19, 2026, where Waymo’s autonomous vehicles didn’t recognize and drove past ramp closure signs into the pre-planned freeway construction zones. This took place in Phoenix, Arizona. Separately, on May 18, 2026, seven Waymo vehicles entered freeway lanes with active construction in the San Francisco Bay Area by driving between cones that were placed to show the lane was closed. On the back of both of these events, Waymo restricted freeway driving until it could address the issue. In June, Waymo’s Safety Board reviewed the issue and additional information related to ADS performances around construction zones; then, as a result, it decided to conduct a recall. This development is not good for Waymo as it adds to a growing list of technical hiccups its cars have experienced. Ultimately, it will lead to more scrutiny from lawmakers around the world who will be more cautious about letting autonomous vehicles on their roads without tighter regulation. For readers in areas where Waymo operates, does this news make you more wary about stepping into one of these vehicles?
    • I'm still on Windows 10 22H2 because I didn't want to deal with all the issues in Windows 11, so I waited almost a week before installing the latest Patch Tuesday update (KB5094127), I went ahead and did it, and it was a huge mistake—ever since then, my File Explorer has seen a performance drop of about 30% when transferring large files... Once again, Microsoft has outdone itself! This update cannot be uninstalled, either through the Control Panel (via Settings) or by accessing Advanced Startup Options. The only possible alternative would be to use system restore points, but I’d have to reinstall all app and driver updates (and there’s no guarantee it would work). Or there’s the “nuclear option” of a in-place repair without losing files or apps, but even then, all my customizations would be lost! Microsoft just can’t help but mess everything up! Way to go, Microsoft! But I still don’t want your c****y Windows 11!
