I just found out about this game today, and i was pretty amazed realizing this game is not on mmorpg game list !!
As a long time gamer im pretty much burned out on mmos at the time, so im dying for something new in the genre, theres nothing out there that pull me into sit and play more then a couple of hours, like me theres a thousands of others that understand what im saying, i've been resubing old game accounts to kill some time, been plaing Aion for the past 2 weeks but...u know...nothing new ^_^
Anyways i think this game looks good and somewhat promissing (deja vou) allwyas loved the sci-fi aproach, and this one seems to have it all to be a win...5 Classes, PVP, R&D (crafting), CTU wich are combat pets not just to show off they can be improved and upgraded.
Within a faction you also have the ability to form a Mercenary Legion which gives you a lot of advantages like teleporting yourself to Legion members or gaining benefits from Legion titles. A Squad or Legion Commander can also initiate exclusive quests.
The combat system looks good and can automatically switch between melee and ranged attack depending on the distance to your target.
I'll be folowing this one for sure, sadly i missed the beta test that is going on at the moment but i hope more betas will come =) what may kill it is by going F2P im more of a fan of the P2P model.
I would love to see some comments and thoughts about the game itself :D
Cheers
thanks for the info, I signed up for the beta
I too am not a big f2p player, although Hellgate might change that
Bounty Hounds Online is a free-to-play MMORPG with a lot of unique features and a visually stunning science-fiction setting.
Are there beta keys being given away anywhere...

Sadly all sites i've found add all keys given out, seems like dev team decided on having a low pop on this CBT as far as i could see there were not many keys given =)
The games been up for at least a week, maybe two. I forget when i got the email for playing it.
They gave out tons of keys on several sites already.
Open beta will be announce next week

Screen shots and trailer make this game look interesting. Did anyone get in to closed beta and what did you think of the game?
August 2 is the release date, and yes MMORPG should put this on the gamelist!
Looks like a bit of a small world, and the graphics aren't my type, but if it's F2P a try wouldn't hurt. I'm not sure if this will get enough hype in a "new breakthrough!" MMO. Good luck to the devs though.... (not to be a troll! xD)
For those who forgot the open beta is running as we speak, happy gaming :D
Question 1. Is this game for european players only?
Question 2. Is this another Korean made MMO?
Question 3. Why isn't this game on the MMORPG list?
Question 4. What is a rough estimate of how many people are going to play this game/how many are in the beta?
I'm very curious about this game, as I am a huge fan of the Sci-Fi MMO genre, and anything to get that fix definitley helps.
North America version http://bountyhounds.subagames.com/ (Closed Beta)
Europian version http://en.bountyhounds.com/ (Open Beta)
Both are going to be IP locked to their respective regions such is the current trend sucks to live in non-covered regions.

1. I'm in North America and in beta.
2. Their website lists three devs? producers? and I'm not sure who is doing what. They have offices in multiple countries including the U.S., Germany, Japan, and China.
3. don't know.
4. don't know. I saw dozens of people in the NA beta in the newb area. I've mostly been playing with the character creator, graphics, and controls testing stuff.
