    Hey, I don't even like the game, but this isn't a fair assessment.  Why not wait until the game is live before posting bad screenshots?  It's kind of underhanded to post these without first telling your viewers that these are beta screens and is not necessarily indicative of the retail game.

    The guy that took those screens should really turn his graphics up off the lowest setting, it might help

    Some are hillarious some are unjustified (like the Kojan map), some only look like that on lowest settings. But overall good post.

    Note to the community, that MOST of the game doesn't look like that.

    Yes, that was a very odd post.  Wasn't sure what the point was.
  • DrumwizDrumwiz Member Posts: 217
    Get a life, this is complete trash, the guy probably got pissed that he couldn't figure out how to get to level 2...
  • BunglermooseBunglermoose Member Posts: 63
    Yeah, no. Not really sure what the point was.
  • RobbgobbRobbgobb Member UncommonPosts: 674
    Was the person bugging this stuff or just getting screenshots to trash the game?

    Why shocking?



    Never played EQ2 or SWG at release?

    If you are shocked by that, then you really didn't play too many MMORPGs.



    If there is a thing I am shocked about Vanguard is the bad performances on an average rig, but that's another matter...........

    LOL



    That guy is really going out of his way to find problems with the game. One road on Kojan? So? You can still GO anywhere on the continent.

    Sorry, I still prefer this screen here:

    from another great SOE game.

    Man, talk about nit picking.  I'm sure I can find trees growing out of rocks, NPCs which hold things funny, and polygons that ignore boundries in World of Warcraft or EverQuest 2 too. 



    The map where he shows the Kojani starting point as being one big road is particularly reaching.  For starters, the Kojani continent is a bunch of islands where the other two major continents are big continents.  Second, the island is pretty huge, there's plenty of room for exploring even within the confines of the island chain.

    Those screens are not what the game looks like on "highest performance" settings.  It looks like complete crap on those settings.  I would say it's worse than EQ1, and probably even worse than Shadowbane and Asheron's Call...

    It is shocking how bad this person's PC sucks. . thats for sure. . .

    As my personnal experience WoW has some weird corpse texture clipping. I have seen some dead bodies so thin on the ground it was like a sheet of paper.



    and ... I dont wanna talk about the floating corpse in WoW as well..





    I think its unfair from OP to post such bad screenshots of VG. It's not even accurate to rate a game that is in TESTING..

    Nought out of ten for trying your damnedest to find faults, anyone who has played the game can provide screens unmatched by any other mmo. It is obvious in many screen shots you were changing settings to suit the shot you were taking. One word for idiots like you "PRAT,” ten out of ten for being a Muppet.

    I think someone needs to upgrade his 2MB 3DFX Voodoo card.

    It hasn't even released yet jackass.  Why don't you get a clue and come back and see us later.
  • brihtwulfbrihtwulf Member UncommonPosts: 975
    I love how you people respond to screenshots from the game that show how it's lacking in graphical quality.  You say, "Oh, you must have a bad system or it is on the lowest settings."  Yet, you don't have any screenshots of your own showing this "beauty" you claim there to be.  I was just in the game, with the setting at their highest (because I have a good enough system to run them that way), and the entire western end of the continent was unimpressive.  It was sparce with plantlife and animal life.  A few randomly located creatures spawned here and there...  Nothing special to behold.  I charge YOU to come up with some of these beautiful screenshots from your machine!  Show us that the game is FULL of beautiful scenery and content.  How about those caves/dungeons?  Sure, a few people have shown some fairly decent shots of cities, but nothing else.  Why is this do you think?  Because the rest of the game is UGLY...

    "this island has a one road, when I play mmorpgs I want wide and huge world to explore"



     - Yeah... because the world in Vanguard is small

    Damn, I was hoping for a thread about drunk elven girls doing shocking things to eachother.

    When I want a single-player story, I'll play a single-player game. When I play an MMO, I want a massively multiplayer world.

  • BlurrBlurr Member UncommonPosts: 2,155

    How about this?

    That's taken ingame of course, on Jan 14th.

    yeah i tried it out and i'm not going to play but you just wasted your time with ciricling all that suff and so forth.. get real, it's still beta.. even when it's first release anyone who thinks *ANY* mmorpg is near perfect is sadly mistaken.
