First: NDA warning

Second: i hope that by "lotr franchise" you mean the books not the films, cuz the films were the ultimate shit (cmon CMON  you peter jackson butt lickers im waiting....)

Hahaha got me one. It was pretty easy i just clicked one link on fileplanet and there it was...jahuu!!!!

btw the client is 3.3 gb and im downloading it via fileplanet....but i think there is another client + key giveaways at computerandvideogames.com site...i think its that name of the site....

I would say that all the kojani starters, orc/goblin, kojani human/Half Elf, Wood Elf/Raki are the ones with the highest degree of an artistic wow factor. Quest lines are also well thought out and imo flow very smooth...

Someone already said this but i have to repeat : ahem.....HOW CAN SOMEONE REVIEW A GAME LIKE VANGUARD AFTER ONE (ONE!!!!) WEEK???????? thats ridicoulus (never knew how to write that word) ......

but i must say that i agree about the grade of 7.........but its still a very fun and immersive game

Sometime in the six months after that SOE announces the Vanguard NGE.

For all you people enjoying the game--make the most of it now because you will get shafted.

Maybe they will, maybe they won't... but that's aaaalright, 'coz in 6-12 months there will be other shinier toys to play with and as long as I have a shiny toy to play with, I'll be aaaaalrighty.


(Read: I don't give a damn no more because SOE taught me a very valuable lesson with the NGE. The lesson being that one should not get too emotionally attached to an MMORPG because when it comes down to it, it's just a game. Have fun today, don't worry about tomorrow.)

amen brother

I'm afraid, have to agree. It has the same plastic look as EQ2 and that graphics bored me after a month.
High poly models und high resolution textures don't make good graphics, it lacks the atmospheric immersion every other upcoming title achieves.

As for the game mechanics. In the last weeks of beta my Monk got completely revamped it was suddenly and surprisingly extrem fun to play. If the "patch me good" story of Vsoh continues, it will be definitely worth a second look.

how can you say it lacks atmospheric achievement???

 i have to say that this is one of the most atmospheric games i have ever played...

I think you all just like it because apparently "it's kool to be hardcore" when infact the games not hardcore, does hardcore even exist? I don't think so, just think it's a fluff term for bugs get you killed making it harder to play lol. Probally all the emo's in this game going "yeh we're hardcore because we don't play WOW" lol wouldn't suprise me tbh.

End of the day they game snot worth paying $58 for (UK TAX) and then paying $15 a month for :\ It's too buggy and unpolished and have it's features arn't even as they said it would be. CHaracter customization is a sham and actually isn't uindepth at all.

On top of all the combat looks boring and animations are ugly plus so are the spell effects. Aswel as that they've tried to do too much at once and ended up as complete crap, less is more and tbh all the classes suffer from blandness because of this.

i repeat

and to explain myself...yes the game is not polished very well i agree but the combat is like in every other mmo out there that has click and attack style, some spells look good some dont but that aint gonna stop me from playing cmon....its FUN!! Plus the animations r very fluid and good looking, i dont understand ppl who have something against animations in this game....

2 cents

Uninstall.

I think Horizons also used Speedtree.  And I think there was another game or two that used it.  Sounds like to me Speedtree should be called Stuttertree.

I preordered this game at station store and had to download. Everything went smooth but during the installation it said there was a "catastrophic failure"  on some file. I tried reinstalling it 3 times and every time is the same on the same file. I also tried by blocking the antivirus and restarting my comp but nothing....
