MMORPG Vendetta Online Released 50
floop writes "Vendetta Online, a MMORPG trader/shooter with decent PvP action, came out of beta on Nov. 1st for Linux, Mac and Windows. I've found pirating hapless n00bs and hunting other pirates being the 2 most fun aspects of the game so far. It has an engrossing back story and pretty screenshots. The guys putting this out are a small operation, and this is their first project. "

Vendetta is truely a multi-player team game. While you can play it by yourself, the real fun kicks in when there are a few dozen ships from different factions in the same sector and they are at war. That and either killing pirates or being one.
I expect that early on, people will not love the game. As enough people rise in power and wealth, the newer members will also benifit. Looking at how large the Vendetta universe is, I expect that it could handle 10,000 players at the same time without a problem -- and probably beyond 100,000. A couple thousand playing at the same time would probably be when things start getting interesting.
There are promises of improvements to the universe over time. I'd be very interested in how the community grows and the changes impact the players in the next 3-6 months.
