I'm a newcomer in this game (got 1 month trial here at mmorpg.com). Just want to say, tutorials works for me - I completed them all with no problems. Probably, bug about Spintz told is specific for his computer configuration?

On my taste game graphics not best of all, but good enough for space game (especially on highest video settings), battle and movement model is very nice, especially if you played with joystick. But possibility to buy ships and weapons limited by your skills, but really no money limits and already lowlevel players got so much useless money - there is something wrong with economic model, imho.

I can't say the game is bad, but can't say what game is the best in space RPG genre. This is an interesting roleplay with good abilities for  space SIM fans. And game may be more popular only if developers will continue to improve game world and bring new features.

Well, the money is not useless. Once you start flying ships that cost several hundred thousand credits, and getting into PVP...you'll realise that you NEED all that money. Ships are expensive, and you'll be replacing them VERY frequently.

The devs are claiming that they have new ship models and graphics on the burner somewhere, by the way. I don't really care personally...I don't mind the way things look now.

Just a couple things, first the continue button will only pop up when/if you meet the requirements for the mission. Second, in the early missions it won't plot you a nav point so that you can learn to do it yourself. It tells you what sector to go to you open the navigation screen and plot your own route. It is called a tutorial not a gimme. Yes some trolls in the community can be crass at times so some of your responses  were probably just as you say but most of us aren't.

I just did the tutorial tonight and the game worked fine and without error. There was another guy on at the time though that was having many problems and was asking a lot of questions that even I with my 1 hour of experience could answer. The guy admitted that tutorial had too much reading for him, and I agree if you don’t read the stuff you could have some problems.

My opinion about Vendetta is very close to that of redsilence. The problem with your view, Pentamorph, is that for european players PVP is almost no option due to slow oversee connections. I really would like to love that game (not at least because of its native, clean Linux client), I also wouldn't mind to be excluded from PVP, but with such a strange economy that only makes sense in a PVP environment there's really no go for me. The flight pyhsics are also a bit too compromised in my book, difficulty (as in pseudo-realism) like in JGC would be absolutely minimum for my taste.

Just did the trial myself and so far I'm diggin it. No problems aside from a laggy mouse (not sure why). The tutorial was ok for the first few steps but got got right after that. Askin me to go kill 10 bot had me killing 20 cause it was fun. I can see where it would become a grind. What MMO isn't at one point or another?
