Vanguard: Saga of Heroes

A buddy key lol.  So i played the game a while back and bought the game to try it.  I ended up not liking it and it's been sitting in my cabinet for a very long time now.  I would really like to come back and try the game, so if any of you have a buddy key you would be willing to let go of i would be glad to take it off your hands. 

I do have a few questions about the game if anyone wants to answer them that'd be great. 

I really really REALLY enjoy crafting and from what i remember crafting was really nice in this game.  How is it now?  Are people still crafting a lot?  Is there a need for crafters in the game? 

What about population?  What server should i go to so i don't feel like i am in an empty world?  Last time i played that was a big turn off for me because i hardly ever saw a single person around me.  I felt very lonely and started to wonder if zombies were just around the corner ready to eat me because i was the last man on the planet lol.

I know Vanguard has never been known for it's pvp, but is it still an all out gank fest and exploiters exploiting the hell out of the game?

That's about it for now, if i have more questions i'll ask them when i think of them lol.  Thanks!

Sorry, I don't have a buddy key, but will try to answer your questions.

Crafting is still popular in the game. Crafted gear is some of the best available in the game. Boats, bags, housing items and harvesting gear are still selling. If you want to make money at it, just like any business, be proactive and make your presence known (short of annoying spam) in the crafting and auction channels.

The PVP server has one of the lower populations. If you live in the US, try either of the PvE servers. I see plenty of people on Seradon. I'll be honest, it still appears sparse at times or at certain areas, but dont be fooled. This is not a game that has a few central hubs that people congregate at. With the addition of bankers, brokers and crafting stations being added to housing areas (some of which are fairly remote), it makes the larger cities and towns appear non populated. So again, use the various chat channels and LFG tool to find fellow adventurers.

I cant speak on the ganking, as I never played on the PvP server. so hopefully someone else can speak to that issue. But as far as "Gold Spammers" and "PLers" spamming there services, it has been reduced to being nearly non noticeable. Sony has gone to great lengths, with help of the player community, to eliminate spamming by adding spamming filters and a spam tab to help capture what might make it through. Reporting these acts is encouraged as well.

Hope that helps.

Good luck and Peace!!

Thanks for the answers, they really helped.  So i kind of figure most people don't have buddy keys anymore, but i've seen a few people posting about buying it recently so i thought it was worth a try.  I am patient though and will continue to wait.

Check in the Newbie section of the official VG forums for a buddy key... http://forums.station.sony.com/vg/forums/list.m

Hey there Vlad. I have some buddy keys if you still need one. Not sure if you were able to get one from the VG forums.

I would really love a buddy key......I have the game and I have been hearing a lot about it lately that it has vastly improved.....So if you have any spare buddy keys send me a pm or mail me at snowytechna@gmail.com.

Ok, sent PMs to Vlad and Snowy with your keys. Enjoy.

I am also looking for a buddy key if anyone has one. (DOn't want to start a PLEASE SEND ME A KEY thread)
