@DragonHunterX Well they would have to be in three or four places at once, cause the dungeons are so huge they have multiple paths and were made to hold multiple groups at once.
@DragonHunterX You gotta realise, older game's dungeons and lowbie zones were designed for a ton of players at once. They're not like MMO's now days where the "dungeons" are instanced and just a big linear path from start to finish. Dungeons usually had multiple rooms, multiple paths, multiple floor levels, some would only range 3-4 level differences, and some could go 10-15 level differences. The old dungeons were a lot of fun.
I just started playing a few days ago and the US server seems to be very populated with new/returning players. Free 45 days for past subscribers and 14 day trials for anyone else. The graphics are gorgeous set at high quality or better. 2 updates have been announced for the game as well.
fuck this game i love it, i miss playing it so much... TOO BAD THEY NERFED DARK ELF AND RANGER IN ONE ELL SWOOP OF A GAY ASS PATCH :'o( and now pvp server is gone?? how the hell can all these people do wow and love it and dedicate time to it but not a seriously sweet game like this, it seirously makse me lose faith in peoplesoeimtesnd think theyre a retarded fatheadsl, viva eq, vanguard
I have been playing the trial, I love it. I couldn't run the game on my old rig so I never gave it a shot but man what a neat game. I will purchase it and continue to play. I hope more people try it, I would love to see it grow.
Vanguard was my favorite MMO ever, and still is. I didn't have any of the problems that everyone else complained about, even at launch. I'd resubscribe right now if anybody else played, which is (of course) the problem. If nobody subscribes, nobody else will subscribe.
@Keshaldra I tried that. I made a new community site that many considered the new unofficial homepage for Vanguard. Was called Off the Isle. Sadly SOE wasn't very interested in working with me to re-launch the game.
Best thing I ever did was not playing Vanguard. Was a bust at launch, and has been a bust ever since. Its almost 2011... do they still have servers up for this game?
Trengal Keep is an impressive dungeon indeed and you enter there at only level 24-25 if I remember.All dungeons is pretty massive and APW is impressive in scope.Vanguard is the best PvE game I have played until now.It's too bad that Sigil fucked it up and SoE did nothing either because VG could have dethroned their beloved EQ2.
@crawley86 No it wasn't. I've played every MMO you can think of, and many that you've never heard of. Vanguard was the most impressive to me, but SOE has failed to fill it's full potential.
Everyone who has or is playing vanguard encourage more people to play it! your friends, families, anyone! we have to get this game back n running on PVP
i played for a while, but the forced release due to running out of money made the game a major fail and not even fun to play. Its all about Aion now baby!
Nice video. Im thinking of trying out the game again(Played beta + 1-2 months) Do you know of any active fansite with a good forum in? perhaps one that the guilds use to recruit ppl?
After quitting Vanguard shortly after launch, I decided to give it another try about 4 months ago (when I bought my new computer). This game is freakin awesome. Best grouping in any MMO that I have played in. I had retired from WoW and EQ2 (five 80`s in EQ2) but this game has kept me playing MMO`s. I wish more people would discover this game.
How different is this game compared to EQ2 because i play EQ2 just never really got into VG but since ive seen a few of your videos they are intresting to me. Im guessing the population is a bit low yes?
I take pleasure in presentation and environment detail too. But i've yet to encounter an MMO that ISN'T impressively massive, which is all this video showcases. As for the environment, the textures in this video looked very bland and pixelated.
The setting looks cool enough, but again, nothing that every MMO doesn't have. It comes down to other factors, such as combat, group play, story integration, and character progression (among tons of other things) that make or break the MMO.
listing off 3 that have unimpressive worlds right off the top of my head, Warhammer online, Age of conan (it has very large zones bu it is all instanced and therefore not as epic as games with full worlds) and Aion, which was pretty much just a single path through the whole game.
Ths game has a huge, seamless world, one of the largest in the industry and it dwarfs games like Wow in size.
@Homitu it depends on whose computer is running it and how they have their graphics set up more then what the game its self is capable of pushing from the way he jerks id say he has the lowest reg or has his setting turned up higher then his comp can handle
Nahhh, he probably just got his stuff back from the alter behind him after he respawned. Of course he took the death penalty, but at least he got his stuff back.
I think this is the most underrated mmo of all time mainly because of the bad release but the game is really good now and everyone should give it a try.
this game is too sick! omfg so many classes to the point where it takes you ours to decide..and thats wat i like..everyone needs to play this before you die lmao
The music is always awesome in vanguard. Especially Trengal Keep. They somehow found a way to mix in an electronic guitar into a medieval fantasy game with success. XD
If nothing is instanced - whats stopping a max lv from griefing lowbies in a lowbie dungeon.
