    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    Yes, unfortunately we are not dealing with a painting competition but with games. Plus EQ2 still has a plastic feel to me, so the graphic departement is pretty much subjective as you mentioned (at least the artistic aspect, because obviously EQ2 is technically superior to WoW). Anyway EQ2 is...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    Read the bottom of my post mate. I just don"t criticise for the sake of it, like other people does in this forum. I play this game and I want to keep playining it. I put my money where my mouth is. I am saying that I am giving Sigil my money for 2-3 more months although at the moment I am...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    Brad this is what always limited your games. Eq1, EQ2 (I guess you were still in charge when it was designed) and Vanguard. Making a game technically 2 years premature compared to what is the actual average machine at the time of release is not a smart move. The casual gamer which you insist...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    No it"s not. This is not about the "Old Casual vs Hardcore" debates, because Vanguard is the subject. You don"t see soo many debates around a game with so little subscribtion base. Vanguard generates almost the same amount of threads as WoW, but Vanguard has around 2% of the subscribers of...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    Sorry mate but what you think, is your opinion only. I like the death penalty, although in fact I think is not harsh enough. But many more people in this thread and other forum I browse, don"t feel the same way. Just scroll up and read some of the posts more carefully.

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    Sorry didn t get your reply. What is gotta do the "standing in the middle" issue with the fact that if u group u get acccess of 80% of the content? What we are saying is that this game doesn"t make happy neither the casual players nor the core players. Both have game design issues againsts...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    I agree with this post in particular with the bit marked in Red, I think that"s the real problem with Vanguard. It stands too much in the middle and both parts are angry with Sigil because the game has not enough features that fully satisfy them.

    I" ll explain..........he sayssomecasual players..........I meanallof them, or at least 95%. If he says that "some" casual won"t like it, he obviously thinks that the majority will, I am just saying the opposite. I think that the vast majority of casual won"t like Vanguard and a small...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    I agree with you mate, I am fully aware of that, in fact read my previous post and you will see that Brad gets lots of well deserved beating from me, exactly for this reason. I like this game and I thinks Brad should stop spinning and keep working to fix the frikking memory leaks which are...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    Yes the millions like you can play WoW, GW, EQ2, CoH and a million more other games. Do you want to add Vanguard to this list? For what reason? They are releasing Lotro shortly and War in few months so surely this millions of people are not starved of good games. I am. Because there is not...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    Problem is not losing everything, the idea is that you should no die. The less you die, the less you loose, the more you gain, the better your character will progress and have an edge on others. That"s the challenge for me. Dieing and just releasing without losing anything doesn"t give me...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    I actually think Brad made an excellent job in the game design area. People like you don"t like it, because it"s not your genre, I don"t like games with insta-travels and no death penalty, for example. This game has been designed more for people like me than people like you. The real...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    Chill out a bit bro. I understand where you coming from, and I agree with all you say, but you miss my point. Of course after hitting 60 you need to throw yourself full on into raiding and PVP-BG if you want to get the ultimate equipment, but what create more aggravation to casual players is...

    Lol that was my worry, the way Brad is promoting Vanguard, is scaring the shit out of me...........I see EQ2 in the horizon

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    That"s because you are Uber.......... Point is, 2 groups or not, the Infineum quest is not a solo quest, therefore solo and people who prefer to group have not the same chances. Secondly I bet, you like me, are those kind of player that, although we would like to play more we can only play...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    I am a bit confused here. Brad insists in marketing this game for everyone. I suggest he needs to play it first, because it absolutely ain"t (unless he is playing a different version of Vanguard not still released). When he talks about this game being for everyone he is missing a big point...
