Vanguard still runs like a complete piece of shit 7 years later. It still hitches, and loads way too often. The characters look like shit. The world looks like garbage. The design was amusing, but really outside of diplomacy which was really meh, it didn't innovate very much. It sucked in 2007...

It looks like they are shuttering a few games, including Free Realms. I thought that one was a moneymaker?

I agree, Pixar's stuff is top notch and Frozen was dang good. The Clone Wars also were far, far better than the prequels.

Cool, thanks for the information. So as a comparison if TESO does something similar, then they are pretty much in line with their release competition. I'd like to play TESO again and see if the experience is any better. My first go round left a very bad taste in my mouth, but the videos and...

Wildstar already missed it's initial release date. Last I checked it was listed as spring <March to May>, which is pretty much the same as TESO. Wildstar's big selling point is it's endgame <I refuse to use elder game..>,but I have yet to talk to anyone who has actually played it. I've played...

This same sentence could equally apply to Wildstar. I'm really curious about the NDA hiding the game this close to release. In regards to TESO they have a lot of information out there, more than Wildstar, but like Wildstar I have yet to talk to anyone who has anything to say about the endgame at...

Kickstarter funding is considered 'income', and subject to U.S. tax law provided your company is here. It's not too late for VR to relocate to Elbonia.

Because after paying for one kickstarter, and being offered alpha, beta, gamma, and a free coffee mug for the low price of $150 dollars, the community would be rearing to write another check for... what again? This is not Star Citizen. There are oodles of generic fantasy MMOs out there, and...

There was enough attention on them that they had to turn off the extra speakers and rely on real crowd noise. Sherman is a goofball, but he was right. Huge choke job by San Fran. I've watched three games this year and I have yet to see what the big deal is about Russel Wilson. He seems an...

In all fairness, they didn't have the people to run Kiffin's D. In other fun news, the Browns are interviewing boy wonder Josh Mcdaniels again: Report: Josh McDaniels 'possibly back in mix' for Browns job and Brandon Jacobs says Jim Harbaugh is a bitch who will never win anything...

He did his KS right, which is why it was fully funded, and has a lot of info rolling out consistently. Check out the links from seven posts prior. They are planning on alpha in August.

Pot meet fucking Kettle. Please get out of this thread already. Nobody believes you have closed beta, just like nobody believed you were going to be hired at SOE or had inside info even before one of their devs owned you as a complete phony. The game was not a complete clusterfuck even when I...

There's nothing wrong with the art and I don't have a problem with the animations. The game looks fine. The problem is, or was, how it 'feels'. Give me that fucking art over 'cartoon' garbage every day.

According to Brad that money will go to pay for the 10 guys working on this while they try to secure more money to do more work. Hey, it's Vanguard of the KS variety.

Interesting gameplay video

Been there, done that, sent Rhode island the bill....

For 5 bucks, its worth a try. Hell, I just bought it. This game is also a hoot: Chivalry: Medieval Warfare on Steam

Brad is an MMO legend and long time dev insider with many resources. What this post says is Brad expects us to foot the bill and shouldn't invest anything himself in HIS project that HE will recoup the rewards for if it succeeds. This fucking mindset is everything wrong with this Kickstarter...

I rail on Draegan and take more crap from mods than anyone, but in regards to the NDA stuff, definitely. That doesn't mean he isn't an evil capitalist. He just seems smart enough not to burn bridges. That's kind of what we are for, a la the Pantheon thread.

Yes, you are the only person who hates lore and stories. Fuck off. Kidding. The Dark Souls argument has been brought up before. Lore and storytelling is integral for a lot of people, but really has very little to do with the actual gameplay. What MMO outside of SWTOR is too focused on the...

Blackwulf, have any changes have been made to try to make the combat smoother? The clunkiness and crappy feel of combat were my biggest initial gripes, although like I said I haven't actually played the game in several months.

integrity 1. the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles; moral uprightness. "he is known to be a man of integrity" synonyms:honesty,probity,rectitude,honor, good character, principle(s),ethics, morals,righteousness,morality,virtue,decency, fairness...

Because that's how you launch a Kickstarter. They have a fully fleshed out design document, game features, delivarables, a project plan, and a great team summary with plenty of due dilligence. In essence, this project is everything the Pantheon isn't. No elite game insiders, either.

Class names would matter far less with a good design doc, business plan, and real milestones. Trying to market the game on 'hints' based on terribad class blurbs really is causing this project to die before it even starts. I get the feeling Brad hasn't played an MMO he wasn't working on in...

Shroud of the Avatar and Camelot Unchained strongly disagree with your assessment. This isn't getting funded due to lack of demand, it's not being funded because of lack of trust coupled with a terrible Kickstarter.

My rogue steamrolled everything solo in vanilla WOW while leveling. By contrast, there were a lot of encounters in SWTOR I couldn't have beaten without my companion as the game was really designed for their use. The companions and the main story are by far the best parts of SWTOR in my humble...

Hey, maybe they can name the Paladin Equivalent Iron Man! Then the circle will be complete!

Tf2 has a huge population. I'm sure the same TF2 people would say what idiot is paying Blizzard 15/mo just to play! Chicken --> Egg, ya know. Mann Up - Official TF2 Wiki | Official Team Fortress Wiki

A few nice news notes for Camelot Unchained: About that Camelot Unchained alpha in August Eurogamer.net Nice update, and something for the Pantheon people to take note of in their KS. It shouldn't take 3 years to roll out an alpha. Just the other day, Camelot Unchained developer City...

It's a a co-op zombie apocalypse shooter where you get to play as one of these four characters Seriously, I've not heard of half of those games.

The problem is 40-50 is very slow in game. The fact a bunch of people zoomed through it with multiple characters why us dirty casuals have to grind it is not cool. Anyways, this server will be dead in two months. They've managed to piss off most of the playerbase in the first weekend. I have...

SWTOR leveling with the storylines was great, but I agree it has nothing to do with an MMO. It's a single player element tacked into an MMO. WOW leveling in Vanilla was super easy. There was no danger, and it was engineered to be fun and easy, especially compared to EQ. Did you play EQ in...

That raises a good question. I'd guess they would redo their kickstarter if it doesn't reach 800k, but it appears their people are pretty much solely invested in kickstarting and networking. Which I guess is as it should be. The problem is as Brad rightly stated, even though they are insider...

It definitely was a pick play, but I doubt Welker was trying to take him out. The outrage from Belichik for this is comical, given the 'fake' injuries and other mischief the guy has used ingame in the past, not to mention the Pats run more pick plays than just about any team. Who was the...

Cool write up about Zimmer from Scott Fujita: Fujita: Mike Zimmer splendid call as head coach by Minnesota Vikings | FOX Sports on MSN

You should have leveled the Infi first! I'm sure many people leveled the stealther harder to level classes first riding the zerg wave which gives them a great headstart on RRs and levels in this environment. I also laugh that those complaining the most about the need for this change are probably...

I like the implementation of light in Tomb of Giants in Dark Souls.

The Kickstarter page looks much better. My suggestion next would be for them to find a web guru volunteer to run their Pantheon page for the interim and to do the heavy update legwork there, and link it to the KS page. There are many IT professionals here who would be glad to run the actual...

I don't think it was intentional, but the zerg xp change definitely screwed the people unable to login the first weekend, oversight or not. This is just a really bad decision by the admins. If this was that big a deal that you need to rush a fix, then they should roll it back completely and...

The 38S philosophy, as in 38S kept pushing on the premise they could get more venture capital and keep rolling. This KS is being used to leverage future VC to fund the entirety of the 8M+ needed to build this game. The main difference here is Curt wrote the initial check before the game...
