Get Ready for “The Bug Hunt!”

Everyone loves new Vindictus content, and while we understand it’s important to continue to expand the world of Vindictus, it’s just as important to also improve the basic gameplay experience.

To this end, we are introducing “The Bug Hunt,” the next Vindictus update. The Bug Hunt won’t bring you any new loot to find or monsters to slay. In fact, the only killing being done will be performed by the Vindictus team as we spend an entire update doing nothing but slaughtering long-standing bugs and issues.

As the update gets closer, we’ll release more information about the issues to be addressed, along with a timeline of the upcoming fixes.

We want to make Vindictus the best game possible, and The Bug Hunt is one more way to bring us closer to that goal. Thank you for your support.

-The Vindictus Team-

I'm all for getting rid of bugs.
Even though I don't know of any.

Won't mean a class revamp, it's only for getting bugs. I'm all for it, and the Vindictus team seems to know what they're doing most of the time so I don't think it will get worse (not that it's at all bad now).

Pretty much, yeah.

But shouldn't this be something they do normally?
There shouldn't be a need for an event to do bug fixes.

Oh look man, a bug! Time to take the servers down for a while and interrupt everyone.
Oh look you guys! We got another bug, and it's only been 3 hours! Time to take the servers down again!

>_>

Not to mention, I think some of the bugs needed fixes from Korea, or others just couldn't have a fix found until now.

Honestly, I am more than satisfied with how Vindictus is managed. Except for it slowly becoming p2p.

seriously it's been a long time coming. the month+ old memory leak, the login disconnects...

the 2-month-old stuck-on-a-boss bug, the fall-through-the-world bug...

the karok's ES moves (grab smashes) on yetis/trolls/lizardmen don't heal bug...

these are just the few that annoy me the most frequently. this update is AWESOME and ABOUT TIME!

THis 1110%. It's quite unsettling for people who pay extraordinary amounts on the game to get such an edge in the game, and for that edge to only be obtainable by spending such ridiculous amounts of real money.
Either way, I still enjoy Vindictus more than Mabi, if not mostly for the team that takes care of the game.

I don't know what any of those bugs are except the floor one. ._.

Wouldn't the fall through the floor one be a problem with source? I doubt they can fix that easily without having Valve look into it. (which costs ZOMG MONEY)

without knowing too much about it, i'd imagine there's something within the (i think it's) "source" engine that determines the nature of what is solid. this should be something that's just a fluke of the coding in this particular game.
