Whats up MMORPG.com, Zach Sharpes here to provide you my first thoughts on Bounty Hounds Online. Bounty Hounds Online is SciFi MMORPG developed by XPEC and Published here in the US by Suba Games.
Description Of The Game:
"Bounty Hounds Online is a Sci-Fi MMORPG where players take command of their own mercenary in multiple worlds and environments. Players can select up to 5 different mercenary class types. The capable Trooper, the deadly Agent, the supportive Bioengineer, the destructive Artillery, and the eccentric Scientist. Assisting the player is the CTU, or Combat Tactical Unit, which is a robotic pet capable of transforming into a combat mech in case things get tough.
Players also have to choose which Mercenary Company they are aligned with. Although all the mercenary groups are working towards the same goal, they are still separate entities and so a few conflicts between its operatives may arise. PvP between mercenaries or whole groups of them are possible as well as forming specific groups called Wolfpacks which allow you to further lay claim to your fame and glory!
The game starts in the serene world of Empyrea where players unravel political corruption as well as other organizations trying to control the scene. Fight criminals, or aliens as you progress into a full fledge Bounty Hunter capable of traversing to other worlds where more dangers and treasures await." -MMORPG.com

Question Of The Video: Have you tried out Bounty Hounds Online yet? If so what did you think of it? If not, are you hyped up about it?
Cant wait to read your thoughts down in the comments! And as always if you enjoyed the video make sure you subscribe to my Youtube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/LUGOEntertainment
PS: When you go to download the game, make sure you type in "Bounty Hounds Online US" in order to get the US client because if you just type in "Bounty Hounds Online", chances are, like myself and others, you will get the EU client and be IP blocked.
Thanks for watching/reading!

I really want to try this game but for some reason my registration process can't be completed. I filled out the info and they said they sent me the confirmation e-mail but I never got it. I checked to make sure my spam filter was off and everything...I'm just not getting it. So, no registration means no play/test.
Yeah their site isnt the best... and we commonly see that with games that are reproduced for many countries. All I can say is try again and hope it works if you already havnt been turned off by it.

damn i was actually kinda looking forward to this one. looks rather bad for CBT. i hope a good sci fi MMO is made one day =(
All we can hope is SWTOR is as good as the hype says.
It's not a game I've heard of. Will take a look at the details to check it out. Thanks for the post.
No problem and yeah I got a newsletter about it unless id never of heard about it either xD
More opinions the marrier on this thread! Make sure u run the launcher as admin to prevent a error.
Downloaded, registered, varified email, installd the game, patch the client, put in my username and password got the following
You cannont connect to the server with this IP
Checked the website found this
The Bounty Hounds Online game client is for European users only.
Might be useful info to put into your post before everyone goes through what i did only to find out they live outside one of the designated areas.
This is where i found that info on it

Help me Bioware, you're my only hope.
Is ToR going to be good? Dude it's Bioware making a freaking star wars game, all signs point to awesome. -G4tv MMo report.
Thats because you are on the EU site haha. I did the same thing but I said in the video make sure u type in Bounty Hounds US into google or u will get the EU page.
Ah thats why, i quick scaned the video for gameplay, good chance i simply missed that part.
Help me Bioware, you're my only hope.

Yeah I said it somewhere near the middle or beginning.
Still might be a good idea to put that somewhere in the post just a little part saying
Make sure you type in google or whatever search engine you want: Bounty Hounds US or otherwise you'll end up in the EU version and unless your in the EU you won't be able to play.
Something to that extent incase people don't watch the video for whatever reason.

Sure thing. =D
Well, I think I've about given up on ever playing this game...at least until it launches or something.
I already posted above on not being able to complete the registration process due to not receiving the confirmation e-mail so I tried again using a new e-mail, different than AOL (in case that was the problem) but I'm not receiving the confirmation e-mail on my new account either.
I don't know why it's not working. The only thing I can think of now is that there seems to be 2 different websites...the one you guys mentioned above at en.bountyhounds.com and the one that MMORPG shows as their official site which is bountyhounds.subagames.com.
I registered at the Subagames one which is where the MMORPG Beta-key giveaway told me to go and like I said it's not worked for me twice now. I may go try the non-Subagames one.
Looks prety boring just watching the video. Not to mention the narrator sounds like he is 15, or a chipmunk huffing helium while explaining.
But, at this point...I am willing to give anything a try at least once.
17, and Ive had tons of compliments on my voice. Hatas ganna hate, but yes the game is a tad boring, maybe it will change by open beta? Who knows.
Trust me youre not the only one having issues with this, many on the forums are complaining about the huge network of sites confusing them and screwing the process up, and even some emails that are not delivered. I feel yeah man.
