Cannot load game at all

Feb 17, 2005 rodpascoe link
Downloaded game after review in magazine. Ran and it updated me automatically and then launched game. Played a while then logged off, went out, came back and now the updater says cannot connect to update server check firewalls. (I have turned it off on my Imac 1Ghz still no luck)
Game looks awesome, help me please!!!!!

Unable to connect to the vendetta Online update server. Please ensure that yo are connected to the internet. You may need to configure any personal firewalling software or check with your network administrator.

See: http://www.vendetta-online.com/firewalls.html :

Our apologies. This page hasn't been written yet.
In a nutshell, Vendetta initiates a TCP connection to update.guildsoftware.com:21024 and a UDP connection to majikthise.guildsoftware.com:21141. Your firewall needs to permit outbound connections to these two hosts.
Bah you are not alone,its a good new for you, patient it's the only solution for the moment
no you can do a clik right on you appz vendetta for show the package and launch the vendetta client, and you can to play
Banzaiiii....

Just so you're aware, I'm still having trouble connecting to the update server. Would it be possible to have some kind of server status page on the site that tells us when things are awry?

It's ok. I found the workaround. Cheers! S.

If you cannot connect to the game, can you please try pinging it and tracerouting to it so we can see where your route stops?
It should be working.
