Well I do believe the class has "coming soon" at the moment, so chances looking good. I just hope it doesn't take a month for OB to start.

Vindictus gives you a selection of TWO characters? That's beyond fail for an MMORPG.

Yeah, but I really wanted to try it. Pretty disappointing.

That's beta for you! But anyway, this is one of those games where they give more and more characters as the game progresses (in patches). Look on the bright side, you don't have to wait for expansion to get new classes.

There are 4 (known) classes, for now. The 3rd is Evy (the wizzard/grim-reaper basically), we'll probably get her in OB. The 4th is Kai (or something), he's the archer class. All of the 4 classes wield two weapons: dual swords/double-spear, sword/long-hammer, staff(?)/scythe, dunno about the 4th, probably a bow and xbow or something. And all 4 are gender locked, which appears to be a common trend these days (probably a good reason for this, aside from cheaper to develop).

Also the NA version (at least) is region locked I think, ie. the one here: http://vindictus.nexon.net/. This always happens with these action MMOs; but that never has stopped me from trying them out - usually the lock is not hard to bypass.

The EU version is here: http://vindictus.nexoneu.com/

I think you're missing my point. You should be able to create your own character in an environment where you interact with different players. Otherwise, you'll just get more of the same character interacting with each other, and that don't make sense.

Think Diablo, rather WoW.

Still not fond of gender-locked classes.

Nah, I won't play it. Thinking about starting Mabinogi though.

People have been giving away keys like crazy today. Check the official site's forums or the gamefaqs boards if you haven't gotten one yet.

Really. If you don't have a key, you are just not trying at all. I went into a thread on the nexon forums giving away keys, and the first one I took was valid. It'll let you in on the open beta early, 15th of September to be specific.

Also, once you get your own key and register it, you get two more keys to hand out. The keys are almost pointless . Be sure to share, though.

For the love of god and all that's considered holy and sacred, do not let that stop you from playing the ONLY free online hack and slash dungeon crawling MMO that runs on the Source engine and is available in the west. There's nothing wrong with playing as a girl either.

Vindictus

The Open beta should be open for this game at somepoint today, although the launch will probably be terrible I'd figure I'd check it out >.>
http://vindictus.nexon.net/
Anyone else waiting on this?

Still not up, but you can patch your closed beta client for the update files now though. Seems like a huge update.

They postponed it again :X I suppose it's not so bad though, most launches are even worse than this.

The patching process speeds up somewhere past the 50% mark.

This game is amazing. After I played through the prologue level, mind=blown. Go get a key if you haven't already and begin to waste numerous long hours of your life on this game as soon as you possibly can. Online gamer happiness guaranteed.

Definitely an incredible game. Level 9 right now and I'm pretty much blown away by the gameplay and the graphics (it's close to FFXIV in some respects). The interface is incredibly unique but still very useable, and the controls are great with kb+m.

Only problem is that it's a bit easy, but that's why I'm just soloing the instances on hard mode =D
