MMORPG Vendetta Online Released

Posted by Zonk on from the space-the-pwning-frontier dept.

floop writes "Vendetta Online, a MMORPG trader/shooter with decent PvP action, came out of beta on Nov. 1st for Linux, Mac and Windows. I've found pirating hapless n00bs and hunting other pirates being the 2 most fun aspects of the game so far. It has an engrossing back story and pretty screenshots. The guys putting this out are a small operation, and this is their first project. "

  1. Love this game :) by Spider[DAC] · · Score: 5, Interesting
    There are a lot of things that speak for this game:

    Tux on the box

    Same price for all platforms

    Fastpaced game action with PvP

    Skillbased combat system, not "most expensive stuff wins"

    Fastpaced, no "point, click, wait"

    Minimal grinding (no hoursof waiting for the minings)

    Developer contact. Several player ideas have been implemented, some within days

    Developers actually ingame

    Unfortunately addictive

  2. Greatest. Game. Ever. by Roguelazer · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I've been betatesting this game for, um, a few years now. It's the greatest game ever. Here's some reasons:

    • Scalable Graphics engine- works on the lowest of low end, is beautiful on high end
    • Engrossing Gameplay- What can I say? It's entirely unique, and entirely fun.
    • Great Community- this is not like CS, where it's all the 13373573R5 mouthing off. It's got a RPG-worthy community.
    • Great Dev Team- 4 guys. And they did it all. If you have a bug, they fix it. They're available pretty much all the time. What more can a player want?
    • A Future- They've got a capital-ships addon underway (will be *supposedly* a free download), and they release updates every week or so, with new features and bugfixes.
    • Tri-Platform- OS X, Linux, Windows, whatever suits you, the game runs great. It even kinda runs on BSD and BeOS!

    If you're not playing this game already, you're missing out on a great game. So GO JOIN!
