Gameplay Videos Under 3 Minutes

For the visually oriented: here is a list of Vendetta Online gameplay videos, under 3 minutes each, in chronological order.  I am looking for videos that display aspects of the Vendetta Online universe and how it has changed, favoring those that show uninterrupted gameplay over "trailer"-type vids.

1. Bored_while_botting - Vendetta-Online

November 26, 2007

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGWIcAjUbIA

You can see the oldskool HUD in this vid.  The player also uses the old 3rd person mode and turns off the HUD for a more cinematic effect, using the Warthog with Gauss and L-Port Plasma to go after TyCorp Assaults.

2. Tube race #28 - Vendetta-Online - D5 Race 2

December 10, 2007

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpfgDeOkIPM

A combat tube race between Vultures and Centurions.  You can see a lot of collisions in this vid.

3. Vendetta Online Dancing Spaceships Bug

March 15, 2009

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vIHWxxe2nU

A Vulture and a Warthog hugging a spinning Behemoth like sea-lampreys.

4. Vendetta Online Flight Test

June 15, 2009

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghgA-cDKn0Q

Flying around a station in Dau with a Vulture.  3rd person mode with no HUD.

5. Missile Stack

January 7, 2010

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lU69ypEwUo

This video demonstrates the correct method for developing a "missile stack", which is useful for bringing down capital vessels' shields.  A custom skin is being used for the HUD.

6. Vendetta Online A Day in the Life 2010

October 31, 2010

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9fjvX1xQgw

Some tube racing, then getting attacked while in the race tubes and running away.  Watching a passing convoy in Sedina B-8, then fighting a Prometheus to the death.

7. VO - The Coalition Strikes Back

January 24, 2011

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5TUoPZRB44

[VPR][TGFT][ONE] furballing with [ITAN] over a conquerable station in Pelatus.

8. Vendetta Online on Android

February 15, 2011

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZZ3kTpd658

A demonstration of Vendetta on an Android tablet at CES 2011.  You can hear one of the devs talk about the game in the background.

9. Vendetta Online on Samsung Galaxy S

March 14, 2011

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTygJ3SoHGk

The first video of VO running on a phone, I believe.  The UI for Android has improved, since then.

March 15, 2011

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1EJ6XNHFYM

Ten kills on ten different players.

11. Vendetta Online PvP first person [VPR] Phaserlight vs [PA] Nahin Lor

April 3, 2011

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKVwwo45iaw

I was listening to an Ephixa mix and this song happened to come on as I went into a 1v1 against Nahin Lor.  I think it's from Megaman.  Using a Centaur mk III with Gatling, Sunflare, and the manufacturable Concussion Railgun versus a Valkyrie with Positron blasters.

12. Vendetta Ion Storm Battles - Warning Shots

July 10, 2011

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0WfA1y_7bI

Some clips from an ion storm battle.  The Raptor comes with a built-in Storm Radar Extender, which allows one to see asteroids and other objects in wireframe beyond normal ion-storm visual range.  Skirmishes in an ion storm grant 4x experience.

13. New Weapon: Avalon Torpedo Launcher!

November 5, 2011

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ooeFKwWkbf0

A voice narrated demonstration of the new(/old) Avalon launcher.  The weapon was initially in alpha, then taken out due to its destructive potential, and now re-added.  It is collectable as a rare-ish drop from the Arklan Guardians.

14. Estrian Prosis vs. experimental reclining chair

November 26, 2011

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvRlXwFkvwc

A Valkyrie using Neutrons, Ions, and Flares vs. a Corvus Vulturius.  You can see a cool HUD skin and some nifty plugins in action.  This player is also rocking the mouse and keyboard.

15. Station Battle 3

November 28, 2011

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBXKCcUMrXw

Flying around a conquerable station in Bractus while it is under assault.

16. VO Half a Chance in Greyspace

December 11, 2011

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fk6cfccBkWE

This vid is partly a teaser for the upcoming mission-design project I've been working on.  Ragnarok bombers going up against TyCorp assaults, and later a Constellation Heavy Transport.  In the end the Connie's shields go down and she explodes.

17. Swarm Dodging

January 14, 2012

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_bN3WkjXDM

Some tricky strafe work against a player using swarms.  Swarm missiles are launched in salvos of 8, and each missile carries a 20 meter proximity detonation radius.

18. Vendetta Online Attacking A Player Cappie

March 4, 2012

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMzPffXklv4

Swooping in for the assault, the player takes out another player and then zooms in on a player-constructed Trident Type-M.

19. Supreme Dogfight: Orion Hornet + Revenent MkIII vs. SkyProm

March 30, 2012

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIsOOG5QHcg

Tango-ing with a Serco SkyCommand prometheus in an Orion Hornet Convoy Guardian, with help from a Revenant Mk III.  The skin in this is called "Light Screen", you can also see the ever-popular "Targetless" plugin in action here.

20. Vendetta Online Sector Blockade

October 16, 2012

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qn5aPp2llgA

Some nice footage of Constellation-class capital transports/warships engaging in a blockade on Itani space; Serco armored fighter-transports taking out a few Itani bombers trying to break the blockade.  You can see the new explosion effects here. 

21. Mining Effect Borkage

October 18, 2012

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYDm1DE89Es

A funny effect was introduced to ion storms for a short period while the devs where working on some graphical upgrades to the game.  The "fuzzbal" wireframe is a product of Hive bots mining.

22. Vendetta Online: Rev C Joust

February 7, 2013

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4TSR59Lnzc

Close-in fighting between two Rev C Centurions.  What this author calls "Jousting" I call "Knife fighting" (to me, Jousting means using turbo to accelerate weapons fire), however, the technique is the same.

23. Popcorn2

March 10, 2013

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQ2-ThJXj38

This pilot's opponent lags out in the end.  Nonetheless, it's very funny to watch a SkyProm being beat down with dual flechette cannons.

24. Vendetta Dreams

March 14, 2013

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szR0l4TNW6o

A sequence I used a clip from to make a longer video (Lucid Dreams).  I liked it so much I decided to publish it all on its own.  I am using a laptop to record a large HD TV screen while I play.

25. Keyboard Overlay Demo

March 21, 2013

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EsLtwhWlvL8

A brief demonstration of the frenetic finger activity required for maneuvering while engaging targets.

26. [FAMY] Savet vs [Itan] Ancient Panther -- Vendetta Online PvP

April 28, 2013

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ziqHZRyfik

You may pick up some good PvP techniques with a mouse by watching this.  Also notice Ancient Panther's credit count.  Yes, some players really are that rich (and usually belong to guilds).

27. Skirmish in Pelatus

May 20, 2013

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=brOwc0ppQ0g

The author of this video once said: "If you were to ask any of the veterans what is the most fun that can be had in the Vendetta Online universe, 9 out of 10 of them would say 'furballs'".  This video shows why.

28. Vendetta Online Corvelle Vulturibash - Voice Cast

October 6, 2013

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCgInoXpIBI

You'll get some clips of navigating through the tube maze in this video.  Don't worry, I edited it so there are no spoilers.

29. Can you spot [SKV] Niki's epic fail?

October 23, 2013

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsY7iUCNgD8

Let me know if you spot this one.

30. Vendetta Online Danmaku Gameplay

November 24, 2013

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89hScH8wOuA

Danmaku, yes, it exists in Vendetta Online also.

I hope these videos provide a window onto the game over the years.  Enjoy!
