Vindictus News - Next Beta Phase Coming September 15

Posted by Suzie Ford on Sep 06, 2010  | 45 comments in our forums

Nexon has announced that the next round of beta testing for Vindictus will begin on September 15th. Players who participated in the first round of testing will continue in the second and will be given two beta keys to hand out to friends. Unlike most beta tests, players participating in the closed beta will not see their characters wiped when the game goes live so no progress or items will be lost.

Battle ready players who fought their way through the previous closed beta will have access to Vindictus and be given two keys to invite their friends. Access keys will also be distributed through various media outlets, bringing more warriors into a world where they can experience the exciting spear-throwing, environment-shattering, fomor-killing fun that is Vindictus.

Read more about the game at the Vindictus site.

OK, the next beta phase is actually an early access to open beta to give closed beta participates and their friends a slight head start. To answer questions asked, Vindictus is region locked, the EU version will be coming later this year. Vindictus is a dungeon runner with an action based combat system which is awesome. Later updates will add a PvP battleground and a faction system either being a Paladin or a Dark Knight. For the people asking for keys already, we have yet to recieve keys, so no point is begging yet.

Vindictus runs on a Peer to Peer server...this means, you depend on our connection and we depend on your connection. No one will want to play with you because you will lag us. Mabinogi Heroes is IP locked as well for the same reason.  You aren't being punished, it is the way things work. Vindictus EU is rumored to start betas in December.

I know all that but I still really want to try out the game..This is like the only ever F2P that I have been interested in.
I am just ignoring the fact that it is made and published by nexon for now...as not to ruin it for myself

You didn't need to touch the item mall in order to play Mabinogi, so I'm not sure why it would be different here. That said, Mabinogi was only entertaining for a few weeks, and if we've learned anything from these types of games it's that 'if you've played one, you've played them all'. Part of me is hoping that this will be different, but I'm not getting my hopes up. Keep your money for the real games made by real game-developers, and not marketing experts who know a little code.

If someone has a spare key though, I wouldn't mind jumping on for a bit to confirm my suspicions. Still, even with the bad reviews for the beta so far, I'm looking forward to FFXIV a lot more (and Guild Wars 2 of course, when it finally gets here).

Your not very good at selling yourself. Complaining about a game you've never tried simply because "you've tried one, you've tried them all" and then saying your more interested in another game which is coming out soon is not really a way to get people to want to give you anything. Calling Vindictus not a real game and the developers are not real developers is enough to make me not want to give you a kay and  I hope no one else does either. You can wait for the real OB with your attitude

They should rename them from Free to play to "Pay to win" since it always in 99% of these so called F2P games end up becoming pay to win. The sad thing? people don't relize that in 1 week they can spend more in the cash shop than it's cost them to subscribe to a pay to play mmo for 1+ years. Oh and most of the time its on consumable items. GG

Yeah because you know panties....are sooo gonna help you win in this game. Right??? Do you even know what this cash shop consists of in this game? Do you???? I don't see any problem with F2P games, even Pay to Play games are going this way, I mean look at Lord of the Rings Online, EQ2, even look at WoW. Blizzard has it all, a cash shop, monthly payments and all the payments under the sun you can think of. I think I would actually pay more if I played WoW than if I played Conquer or Eudemons.

The lore behind this game comes from celtic mythology, not some Morgan Freeman movie or poem named "Invictus."   = )

*yawns* Folks, don't waste your time...this game is a snore with little to no customization. The game is repetitious and doesn't belong in the MMORPG genre. There is nothing to explore, no open world, just combat via "boat ride" to a few maps much like an FPS. But you know what...I doubt most of you will take my word for it and it's only my opinion so you'll see for yourselves in time. ;-)

I love how people are drawing conclusions when the game hasn't even reached open beta stage yet.  I enjoyed closed beta untill I ran out of things to do, but that's only because the first 2 instances were open and a lot of features were not introduced yet.  Basing an entire game upon a closed beta is like reading the first chapter of a book, and saying the whole thing sucked.  I look forward to the EOB, and I might be passing out a key or two eventually.
