Vanguard: Saga of Heroes

Rule of MMORPG.com

You like a MMO, you are a fanboy

you dislike a MMO, you are a troll

A few exceptions of course, like Jaguar is truly a troll judging from his post that lost all credibilty with what he said before and after "LOL I LOGIN AND SAY THIS GAME IS LIKE WOW"...I was actually interested in his points until that point.

In general though, what I said about the rule of MMORPG.com is true.

Five people playing?  Really?  Last time I logged on, I saw two.  Yep, just two.  And I was running around through a city and outlying area.

Bones: (holding a tricorder over Vanguard)  "It's dead, Jim."

Kirk: (sighs and flips open his transmitter) Commander Scot, beam us up.

Do you really have to stay at work benches for weeks and months to get your maxlevel crafter ? Is that really such a great idea ?

If the game was popular, then I say yes.  Otherwise you end up with wow syndrome where everybody and their dog is a master crafter thus reducing crafting to a commodity market.  I actually like having to search for that crafter that makes weapons a slight bit better then another crafter, or browsing merchants to find an uber weapon that only a few top crafters can create with the rarest of materials.  I think the ability of a person to create a name for themselves on the server with their top notch crafting is a good thing for the community of a game.

But hey, that's just my opinion.  This stuff may just not be important to you, and I don't hold it against you.  Luckily for you, there's plenty of existing games on the market that are geared to your (assumed) playstyle.

The game is another bland and generic fantasy game that's very buggy and boring to play. The low population says that hardly anyone likes the game and the people that do have no taste.

The interface is almost identical to WoW. The other game mechanics are probably different. People in the game were saying WoW ripped off EQ1s interfac. I never played EQ1. So, if it is a rip off of EQ1s interface, I appologize. Sony is allowed to rip off their own game.

I know other games now (LOTRO) use very similar interfaces too. I do not hate the game for using similar interfaces. I just found it funny that the players became so highly defensive about it.

I agree with you Vendayn

But one thing I can say, after I experienced a lot of MMOs, it is easy to realize the mmorpg.com community does not reflect any game community.

Of course, we find people like Jaguar in a lot of MMOs, but usually they are just an annoying minority.

This fanboy/troll silly generalization doesnt trully affect any game.

I don't think you understand the definition of fanboy. I am not promoting any other game. I did not make a post on the general forum try to promote the game I play.

I think you have comprehension issues Jaguar

You said you installed a game and in the first minute you started to spam "this game is like wow, this game is like wow, this game is like wow!" without even play or explore the game ( you admited it too) and YOU called everyone that was against your attitude in game FANBOYZZZ.

Do I need to say more?

By the way, if someone play a game and like to talk about it in a forum this person is a fanboy? See, this is what Vendayn said, stop generalize and judge others and start to look your own attitudes.

Ok, I loaded up Vanguard. The performance is a lot better now. I did the shader optimization at the beginning, I don't know how much that helped.

The HUD text is horrible still. It shows no effort. I know I can turn off the floating names, but they are still visible when I click an object. It's such a little detail, but is seen throughout the entire game.

This game is very well optimized now.  It seems they have improved performance at least 10 fold.  I can run this game on almost max settings now days, where as I had to run it on low settings with the same computer when it first came out.

You, and another person in this post who mentioned it, are totally right about the HUD text, if that's what it is called.  The text over monsters heads.  It is so ugly, it really is distracting from the gorgeous scenery around, like big graphical farts of uglyness.  I wish there was a way to change the fonts.  If anyone knows how, let us know!

I never said I spammed "this game is like WoW." You will not see the word spam in any of my posts. I said this game is like WoW once in the region chat and the players got all upset.

Are you inferring I am a WoW fanboy? I do not play WoW. I do not like WoW. I cannot stand WoW because of the instances and long quests. I do highly respect WoW for being an extremely solid game. I played WoW for three months back in 2005 (a year after it was released) and I did not see any major or obvious bugs.

The Vanguard engine is a lot better now. I could play at the highest settings when before I had to play at the lowest.

One other issue I notice when playing was when I walked up steps. I got a headache from the camera shaking. I'm guessing there is an option to stop the camera from following so closely?
