Gah, been using this time to catch up on Mad Men, but now I'm up to date. What to do, what to do.
So that means around midnight here in Sweden. Perfect.

It just doesn't make any sense to release at the END of the business day on release day. I mean, the servers have been down for weeks, so wtf is the hold up? It's not like they have to do a whole lot of debugging since they're probably just getting content from Korea and localizing it like Codemasters did with RF Online.
Are we gonna play the upgraded version ?
.... I guess not judging by the date it was released in Korea.
Oh well, still sounds like an awesome game.
eXtreme Edition
On July 15, 2010, an alternative version of Mabinogi Heroes was announced for Korea. It is known as the eXtreme Edition, and often referred to as Mabinogi Heroes XE and abbreviated MHXE. The game itself is the same but the eXtreme Edition offers upgraded combat. Based on existing high-quality movements in Mabinogi: Heroes, Mabinogi: Heroes XE will present splendid and unrestrained movements more in line with the public's taste. Moreover, it will start off from a new server instead of being an update for the original Mabinogi: Heroes. Players can choose the normal server or XE server according to their interests. Currently, characters in the two different servers cannot be shared, but character transfer service will be provided in the future.
Differences Between the Two Versions
Compared with Mabinogi: Heroes, Mabinogi: Heroes XE has the following major differences :
A jumping system will be added. With the help of it, players can easily jump over small monsters and traps. Players will be able to strike monsters to the sky. In the game, players can take specific actions to hit the enemy up into the sky and launch combo attacks. A combo system will be added. If players succeed in attacking the enemy continuously without being interrupted, they will gain combo points. When their combo points meet a high requirement, they can use a designated skill to deal extra damage. In the game, players can jump over small monsters and traps, lift up small and medium monsters and launch combo attacks, use the XE Skill to unleash AOE attacks to surrounding monsters at the cost of their own HP. Additionally, the game differs Mabinogi: Heroes in faster movement speed and higher damage of common attacks.
Korean Release
Mabinogi Heroes eXtreme Edition debuted in Korea on July 22, 2010

They've said that we're going to get an accelerated release schedule, so we won't have to wait as long for content as the Koreans have, but we'll still have to wait. XE does sound awesome and I'd hop onto that in a heart beat. I see the current version as a good way to practice and get schooled up for XE.

hopefully we can use the CB client to play, the Vindictus homepage has the Download Vindictus button, and if you click it, a pop up says "Coming Soon!"

I think those of us who live in the East Coast will go to the that server while the West Coast gaffers will go there. That's what I assume anyway.
Just post your character when you get it. People are bound to run into each other.

In a another 15 minutes at the earliest.
I think it's a bit lame that classes are actually characters, and of particular genders. Does that mean that you'll be pretty limited in terms of facial looks and so?vehn said:
And if not, why make the class specific characters when they can be customized to the extent of looking like someone else?
Gender locking is so confusing.
Shanadeus said:
Yeah, they're gender locked, but see the OP. There's a lot of customization that can be done and each time you create a character it's randomly generated, so while your "Fiona" is always a woman, you shouldn't have too many that look alike. Even all of the clothes/armor are dyable. You can even pick the panties they wear!

They have at least a couple different faces per character and you can change hair/hair color/skin tone.

That's such a confusing game decision though!1stStrike said:
You have different looking characters, even if they're the same "person", yet you won't create an opposite sex skin/model for each class? I'm sure they could reuse part of the model associated with the male classes.
It's not really a problem, it just makes little sense.

Agreed, it's a very strange way of doing it tbh. Maybe it's important to the story line or something. :s
Bring the servers up already!

Shanadeus said:
The game is more of a pre-sequel to the other mmo Mabinogi so there are references to that game and I suppose they use set characters to flush out the quest and storyline a bit better. I do expect a well expanded storyline and background just because they did a pretty go job with Mabinogi's story.
