The team at Nexon practiced the Galactic Empire's way of handling situations when devising the next upgrades to its action-MMO Vindictus: Make it bigger!
The creators promised on their website today that Titan would be the biggest raid boss to hit the free-to-play MMO. "Only the bravest and strongest mercenaries will come out victorious," claim the developers in the announcement. This colossal boss can easily smash the bones of anyone who opposes him. Then, the creators ask if you will be the first to escape Resenlian's gigantic labyrinth. An evil alchemist filled the tunnels with gruesome creatures, and until now, no mercenary has ever escaped it. Next, Evie's staff has grown larger... in stats, that is. The new functionality of her staff allows her to perform better as a caster. Lastly, the docking system is wider. The devs have heard your pleas; they are revamping the docking system so that you may access more docks at one time. This means less wait-time assembling a party.
This Titanic Shift patch goes live on April 20th! Hop over to the official website for more super-huge (OK -- I'm running out of words for big) information about this update.

Instead of making it bigger, they should make it come to Europe.

Are they fuckin serious? I know a shit ton of people that really want to play this game (I'm from Brazil) but can't . Is Nexon blind? They could be doubling his playerbase by expanding it .
Inb4, yea, obvious whining, but i had to say it

Huh... and here I thought they were going to be referring to their cash shop and profit margin, by finally listening to the god knows how large topic about permanent inner armor...
Silly me, its just a minor update.

I just deleted this from my machine too before this news hit earlier today...
But I'm with you on this one. Permanent inner armor would get me to reinstall this asap though. And before anyone asks: yes, it is solely because I want to stare at digital T&A. Well that and I don't want to essentially pay a sub for a single piece of gear.
Well, in a way I'm happy for new content. That's always a good thing, but c'mon Nexon, how hard is it to implement perm inner armor?!

Oh yes, the $20-30 MACRO-transactional items, I'm so sorry... I thought we were talking about micro-transaction shops. And lets completely forget just how ugly and gaudy said pieces were.
Me asking for a hotdog in the cafeteria, and getting a steaming turd in a hotdog bun, obviously isn't getting what has been requested. Neither is paying 8 dollars a month just for the privilege of having shiny gold tighty whities no one will ever see.
And I can read, again minor update. I wouldn't say a game developer adjusting a skill that does just 1 damage no matter what into something useful as a "major thing", neither would I say nerfing a skill that insta-kills everyone to something manageable a "major thing" either. Its balancing, thats it.

In EU it will come out (if ever) at the time whenTera, Swtor and GW2 are there already. At this time i will care about this game exactly the same how they care about EU now.

Isn't there an option for Europeans to play on NA servers?

By the time Vindictus will (?) hit Europe, it will be an old game. Shame on them :
