Keep up on the dev tracker at silky venom.

http://www.silkyvenom.com/pages/devtracker/

It tracks "most" of the dev posts on various websites and give a good idea of what they are currently working on and why etc.

Read the FAQ, answers to a massive list of questions, some of it is outdated but it still gives a good feel for what it going on and what the goals/ideas are for the game.

http://www.vanguardsoh.com/faq.php

Read the beta newsletters (another one due out very soon)

http://www.vanguardsoh.com/Newsletters/Jul2006/main/Julynewsletter.html#BetaNews

Links to the other newsletters are at the bottom.  Most of them have interesting details on select classes and general changes going on in beta.

There is a player created compendium that has a lot of general content info:

http://www.vanguardsoh.com/forums/showthread.php?t=63036

Other than that if you wish there is a lore section on the main site and the official and silky venom forums that tend to have much better informed people on what is actually going on with the game.  Yes plenty of rabid debates like any other forum but on the whole better general knowledge.

I am done with this forum, too many trolls, too many blindly negative people, too many lazy people who want to criticise without have a clue what they are talking about and convice others about things that they have no idea on themselves.  No question there are also some blindly positive people as well but most of them are not trying to spread false info, they are simply stating they are excited.

Have a nice day, and maybe see some of you in beta 5.  ;)

PS for the trolls that will inevitably flood this thread with mindless negative posts to try and prevent people from actually learning about the game, have fun I won't be here to read them.

All of this is old news.

Vanguard is EQ1.5.

It's the old EQ with it's antiguated game systems and problems packaged in current graphics.  The old EQ was revolutionary for it's time but it's time has come and gone.

Actually, the game has very little in common with EQ. Heck, WoW is probably closer to EQ than Vanguard. But thanks for playing "misinformed trolls R us."

Actually, knowing what we do about Vanguard thus far, I was more under the impression that it was similar to pre-CU SWG than anything else.

But that's more of an impression really. Will have to play it to see.
