    Hmm, I see... I don"t know. I know the world is fairly big. Maybe they should merge some servers?

    While Diplomacy may have lore, I think they should make it more accessable. Like in libraries and stuff. And quests, definately show it in quests. :P

    Yeah, but check out the lore on the site (if it"s still around). Morgan"s Tale, etc, was some good shit. They need to get Glip writing some stuff.

    STFU WITH YOUR MY LITTLE PONY AVATAR AND YOUR STUPID LITTLE SHORTS! And now that I"ve said that... :P I"m not sure if it was lack of direction. It was probably pretty organized at first, then just got crazy. I know Sigil used to be a company of like 12 people, or something. It was...

    I agree Mk, there"s no rush. I think it"s just something that was programmed into our brains from EQ. Basically, "Want to see the cool shit? Grind..." Vanguard seems to have quite a few interesting dungeons, and places to explore. What I"m worried about (i"m not much worried about the other...

    I have to wonder WHY they don"t have lore in the game. The old Vanguard website was loaded with well written lore. Wtf happened?

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    The biggest reason I don"t want to play WoW is the constant upgrades you get armor wise. I actually watched my friend, week by week, and every week he"d look different. I kind of like the "fight through a dungeon to get a decent piece of gear" element that EQ had. EQII had that element, the...

    Heh, I raided with a guild like that on the Tunare server. Raids were at most, about 30 people. Usually, there would be around 20 or less, all non-elemental geared people. I remember when people shit themselves when we killed the Behemoth in Po... Plne of... I forget the name. The one with...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    To be honest, I probably wouldn"t have been a good player if my neighbor hadn"t taught me (he"s the one who got me into EQ). He showed me a lot of things to watch out for in groups, how to solo as a Wizard, etc. Was pretty cool.

    It"s not that, usually. It"s getting them to either listen, or remember this stuff. Getting them to remember to do these simple things, and do them WHEN they"re supposed to is the toughy. And a lot of the time, when you try to explain something to them, they get insulted. It"s annoying...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    I think you"re partially right, but let me add a little to that thought. Much of World of Warcraft"s success stems from it"s name. "Warcraft" was a very, very popular RTS game back in it"s time. It did have a lot of kids that were either assholes, or didn"t know what they were doing. Now...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    Eh, I don"t know if taking an MMORPG and breaking it into a bunch of mini-MMORPGs would be a good idea. The genre might be new, but people who play these games generally want the "whole package." I do think it"s possible to challenge and dethrone WoW if someone wanted to. A company like...

    I hope they"re not working on an expansion right now... I mean, they have a lot of land, etc, to cover, still.

    Well, I suppose it"s good that they"re working on the game. Hopefully the subscriptions can keep the game going long enough for it to become solid.

    Didn"t Brad say a few pages back (or on another thread) that they"re going to put the fellowship system back in?

    Now if they could only get rid of the lag, and put some lore, etc, in, they"d be set. Sort of.

    Heh, to be honest, that"s another thing I"m worried about. I"d hate to be playing, and there are less and less people every week. Gah, that would suck.

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    I think what Sigil should do now is not try to hype Vanguard right now. They should work on getting the game into a solid state (much like EQII and WoW are, now). THEN, offer some kind of promotion and give people a free trial to try out Vanguard. At least this way, they"ll not hate the game...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    Yeah, it"s really turning me off, also. I look at it like this. I can buy WoW for $19.99, and EQII for $39.99. Both of them are very polished, and have a pretty big player base. On the other hand, I can pay $49.99 for Vanguard in an unpolished state with a much smaller player base. It just...

    I have a 7800GT, 2 gigs of RAM, and a 3700 AMD Processor. Since I bought this a while back, it"s outdated, but still plenty enough to play most modern games. What do they still need to fix, though? I hear there"s still a lot of problems.

    I see. I don"t like WoW, and Vanguard seems to offer an EQ like experience with less of the pain of EQ. That"s why I"m interested. Do you guys think they"ll have all the bugs worked out soon? It"s really, really hard for me to drop $50 on this game. Any idea when the price might drop?

    How many hours a day do you guys consider "hard core?" I"m thinking about playing, but unlike with EQ, I want life. Lol

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    So, the game"s population is dying out? I was hoping to play Vanguard, but that does have me a little worried. It"s kind of sad, really. Brad, pull out your whip and get your devs cracking. When the game is solid (as it should have been), start a big advertising campaign or something. I"d...
