A Grunt's Final Stand & Offer

Oct 26, 2004 Supreme Sausage!!! link
Well, all must come to and end...

Now that these are the last days of beta, i'd like to throw a few shutouts/suggestions/and an idea for the last day.

First: To all the devs, man this game is gonna be one of the better MMORPG's out there, and i'm so happy that i had the chance to become a beta tester. My experiences for the most part were entertaining, enlightening, and straight up ill. I would pre-order, but my financial situation doesn't allow for that. I mean, if there was a way for me to be able to send the devs the money to reserve my copy and/or the monthly fee via money order, i would have done so in a heartbeat. I love this game so much, but it's gonna suck when it goes retail. My only hope is that my financial situation would get better, so that i can finally start pwning j00 all.

Secondly: As it stands right now, this game to me is way beyond complete. Although i nevr involved myself in it, the convoys add a hint of variety to the Vendetta universe. Just have some sort of strategy guide available too for when the game goes retail. That was my only caveat; i could never eem to kill two apu-5's in a row.

Thirdly: A small request. I am proposing an all-out battle, between all races in the gray sectors, or in a sector of our choosing. I, for one, only scored ONE PvP kill in my 3 weeks here, and my appetite for blood is groing immensely. Just imagine this: 100+ players in a sector duking it out, mano a mano. Good idea?

alright I'm done, i was never the type to lecture, so who knows, maybe i'll be repainting my hornet with your blood lol...

FYI. We will have direct-sales online by next week. This will make the game available to anyone who is willing to pay the $9.99 monthly fee (no retail purchase necessary). You will be able to use PayByCash.com, which will accept money orders and every other form of monetary exchange under the sun. Details will be posted as soon as I have them.

Supreme Sausage: yes, we usually blow the heck out of each other day before each reset

It's already in the works. M14 Odia, Sunday. Times undecided. We have planned to meet up for a war.

It is not required, but we'd appreciate if the devs could bring the "rings of cargo", and avalons back. It would make the war to end all VO wars just that little bit more nostalgic and fun!

Whatever happens in the next few months, i wanna add how pleased i was with being able to help this mmo get to where it is today. It's the feeling that all the input people gave has affected the great game we have and what it will become.

It'd also be nice if everyone could buy everything for free, since it'd be right before a reset. Gotta have anything you want to use for a good slaughter! :P

AND NO LEVEL REQUIREMENTS!

Omg, that would make my day. I can only imagine 150+ people in a sector at once.....

Or maybe, the devs can use the uber station in the banner up there ;).

OMG, that would be so fn sweet... 150 Proms in ONE sector... or 150 buses, we could have ourselves a New York traffic jam lol.

YES ! make sure you put the direct-sales announcememt in a visible spot. and also make sure i can buy 3-4 months in advance, because i do have 40 bucks reserved for this.
one question though !!! will i be able to retain my curent account (account, chars, badges) if i use the direct-sale option NEXT week ?? PLEASE say YES!

now: sugestions for all-out war:
- no free cash, levels still required. if you want fun, make sure you disurve it, you have two full days left to earn all the cash and all the levels you might need.
- disable safe friendly-fire by then. i want to kill all the members of my guild starting with the council members.
- make sure you notify by email all registered beta testers starting maybe tommorow, and leave the all-out war rules on for the whole day

Yes, it was great playing Vendetta beta, and now that download version will be available i am pretty sure that's a BIG step to a BIG succes.

Vendetta's gunna be one hell of a retail game. Considering how good it was in beta and how much fun i had it'll be excelent. Im in for a good war. O well see ya'll after the reset in the retail game!
