I gotta say, that looks terrible.  Isn't Vanguard's graphics usually pretty realistic?  That looks like its made of plastic with a construction paper background.  What were your settings for this?

I would have to say the settings are max if not near max, this is how vanguards rock textures look. They don't look too bad from a distance but up close they stick out. So far it's the only "graphical" issue I have with vanguard, over all it's a nice looking game and it's a shame it is being allowed to slowly die though also understandable.

mmprime, I love your screenshots!
