Maybe this is typical of minor video game articles on Wikipedia, but this article amounts to little other than an advertisement for the game. After being a public product for 2 years, this game still is fraught with annoying problems with the user interface. Conversely, this article doesn't really mention any of the cool things about the game either, like the designers' bravery in designing a game with somewhat realistic (and therefore unfamiliar) space flight. Similarly, the WGAF article is also very bad. From WGAF, quote: "WGAF also has unique network code. All data is sent over UDP instead of TCP, allowing for packets to arrive out-of-sequence..." This is an incredibly uninformed statement. No commercial game uses TCP to send time-critical info to clients, they ALL use UDP.
There. Now you have some information on the different aspects of the game, at least. Advertisement it might be still, but it is also true. - Ayjona - 18:34, 5 Nov 2006 (GMT+1)
Not sure where else to put this, but it looks like it goes under here. I understand the article has undergone some major changes, but I also felt the actual gameplay features could use some more description. As such, I added some paragraphs to "Long Term Objectives" with headers in bold; topics include Conquerable Stations (already in place), Capture the Cargo (CtC), Race Tracks, and Deneb War. I'm open to suggestions on formatting. Psychonautical1 ( talk) 17:40, 24 June 2012 (UTC)
I had found the detailed description of VO, including things like missions, quite interesting and useful, so I think removing so much material makes the article much less valuable, especially for someone who is not already immersed in that and similar games. Where does description end and advertising begin? szpak 15:16, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
I'm playing Vendetta Online and like this game in general. I even agree it could be worth to pay for it. But article makes emphasis on good sides. But no any drawbacks listed so neutrality of this article is questionable. I will try to write criticism section so article is more balanced. Feel free to rework it but do not delete it just because it harms someone's profits. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.210.145.118 ( talk) 19:32, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
The previous version of the article made it sound like the PCC were primarily responsible for developing the game. I moved the former content to a new section titled 'Player Contribution Corps' and included a new 'Development' section, referencing some additional sources and fleshing out the descriptions a little.

Added a new section titled "World", moved the "Backstory" subsection under here and added a new subsection called "Galactic Trade Standard". GTS is an important dimension of the game world in my opinion because it is a unique aspect of Vendetta that sets it apart from other MMORPGs, and should be included in the article.

Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to one external link on
Vendetta Online. Please take a moment to review
my edit. You may add {{
cbignore}}
after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{
nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}}
to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:
