• • Has this game improved?

  • I'm really excited to hear about all the improvements. I was never really concerned with performance and bugs. My old pc was a beast so hitching didn't take hardly any time at all for me, and bugs don't really affect me at all. Occasionally they'd happen, but it never bothered me the way it did others. The content and progression is what bugged me, and from what I've read they've been adding a lot. I can't wait to get back in-game.

    Vangaurd has improved so much since launch. From game play to Quests to class adjustments. If you enjoyed it at the start I don't see why you would not enjoy playing it now if not even more so.

    
    If they improved it, then I don't see why I wouldn't either. If they kept it the way it was when I quit (which was because they were mainstreaming it, not the bugs) then I'm not sure. After I rebuild my pc, I'm probably going to give it another shot because I loved the game when I played it, and maybe I can look past the fact that there will never be another game as amazing as when EQ first came out til the PoP expansion, then I'll probably love playing it again. Especially considering I had a blast with LOTRO and that game isn't incredibly difficult either. All I know is that I'm excited to bring my dread knight back out haha.

    GU6 will bring a big rebalance of the game.

    Right now its too easy, which actually isnt too bad for me, as I need some more highlevel characters right now, for having some alternatives for raiding. But for enjoying the game, level speed is too high.

     

    Nice. I was worried to hear about the super fast leveling, but if they're going to fix it then that's great. Alts are important for enjoyment, but I don't want it to make class specialty useless.

    I have played from beta and month after release too. Now I'm back and can say that there are so much content so you have to develop at least 3x50 chars to compleat all of it. Thats nice because XP is also increased so level up is much faster. Even it looks that game play is easer now its better because it is casual player friendly and are still many challenges - half of the quests are "small group" that can be done solo aka initial solo quests. In all of this with the faster progress game play is much more diverse. There are small casual features that I personaly do not like - the one of them is riftway system (many teleports on different points of telon) that almost ruin exploration and jourey of the game (and ship are almost useless now). At last if its not perfect VG now is a great game for both newcomers and old mmorpers.

     

    That's good to hear. The teleports are actually kind of a good thing imo, as getting to groups for dungeon runs could get tedious before. I think exploration should be there, and it is in VG, but not get in the way of gameplay. Then again I was one of the few EQ players that didn't mind the teleports. I remember grinding lumberjacking for nearly a week and getting the 2nd boat on my server haha. If they're not quite as useful, that just means it won't be as difficult for me to get one, which is good for me. I like sailing in that game just for the exploring aspect. Aimless wandering was one of the things I loved about VG.

• • Has this game improved?

  • I played through all of beta, few months of release until they nerfed the whole game. Less mob HP, more DPS, less damage taken, all that.

     

    Has the game improved at all? Not just confined to difficulty either. Have they added in enough content? I loved the game until they nerfed it, and that was the final straw. I'm rebuilding a pc soon and am thinking about trying it out again (along with AoC). If Vanguard is still fun, I plan on playing both if I enjoy it.
