    If you are playing VG, you should have no concern about time wastage anyway  Such posts do not address the fanatical and blinded fanbois. They are merely to warn sane and mature gamers who are seeking the learn the truth about this game. They are written to warn such people not to make the same mistake.

    There is nothing truthful here ... most of it is consistant babbling such as yours ... They have no factual basis in reality .. In fact i suggest to anyone if they want to learn what the game is actually about ... Go to another forum with calmer minds and talk to people with honest opinions .... and not listen to people who have nothing better to do then troll these boards and annoy people who are just asking questions.

    These are not revelant reviews or comprehensive studies of the game .... they are rants ...

    I have seen you many times on these boards shouting our your "one shot" comments.

    Agree with the OP.  I have spent MUCH more time in this game and have had to come to the hard fact that it isn't what it was promised to be.  Even as a mature gamer this bug riddled mess just doesn't deliver the goods.  Unfortunately, if and when it ever gets it right there will be far superior MMOs out.  No big deal and I fault no one for playing but I simply refuse to pay for beta.

    I'm amazed you can see your own posts, with those rose colored glasses and all...

    I've kept my Vanguard account active (rather than cancelling out of haste) to see whether I would have any motivation to play the game... I gave the game a go, I made 3 characters on the 3 different continents, and I found I rolled those alts out of frustration, and decided to see if another continent was better... I liked elements of the game, but obviously not enough to make me want to play... I like the idea of the game on paper... I just can't get past the bugs to see if those ideas really work in implementation.



    I tried the crafting which was fun for a little while, but after a while it becomes a big work order grind, and you don't get to make enough usable items per crafting level, and it takes a lot of work orders to go up a level. I gave diplomacy a big go too, I like the concept, but the dialog is static, and folks with the same class "Senators in Leth Nurae" or whatever they are called, repeat the exact same sequence, nothing they say changes... so it felt like *gasp* grinding. The adventuring wasn't bad, but I cannot for the life of me see what is innovative with the combat system, apart from having a defensive target and an offensive target... The rest is pretty much the same as anything else.



    This game is a challenge to play, cuz in my mind, it is boring... Hard games to me... Are games that if I make one wrong move, I might be biting the dust, but if I play with finesse and style, I will win the day, and the adrenalin will be pumping... This game didn't give me that... Real hardcore people wouldn't even know there was a death penalty. The dungeons in this game are total zerg fests... Get a group, zerg in.... No style, no finesse... And if you do play with finesse, the stupid respawns will cane your ass.



    The only reasons I have hope for Vanguard, is that from all reports, Sony made EQ2 a better game than it was during release. I will give the game another go, once what I would have paid in subscriptions, equals what I have forked out for the game thus far. I have to recoup the costs for this disappointment.





    WOW was mindless in many ways, but Vanguard to me, has a lot of the elements I hated in WOW, with none of the good. I could try out my skills in the instances by duoing them... I was a warrior, and my best friend was a priest.



    Successfully duoed (without the word of a lie), meaning completed all quests, and killed all bosses, non-twinked characters on a new server Aman'thul:

    WC duoed level 21

    BFD duoed level 23

    SFK duoed level 25

    RFK duoed level 31

    SM duoed level 39

    RFD duoed level 43 (The lich was damned hard).

    Uldaman 45 up to where you can't go no further with only 2 people.



    After that, Duoing becomes impossible (need 3 people to activate switches in Uldaman)... or downright hard, so ya need a skilled trio.



    This took skill... if ya don't think so, re-activate your WOW account (you all have had one at one stage, admit it) and try doing it yourself.





    To those people that enjoy the game in its current form... More power to you... if the game ever does become great, I sincerely hope Sigil gives you guys and gals a big pat on the back, to show that the loyalty isn't only one way.





    Have fun.

    bye!.
    I haven't met a single player who doesn't like immersiveness. We are saying, that for us, it's not immersive enough.

     

    "Immersiveness" is a useless catch-all word used by people who want to dress up the simple statement that they simply don't like a game. If you want to keep playing, you're immersed, if you don't you aren't.

    I was not talking about the game...talking about people... you assumed I was talking about the game and quickly attacked it as par the normal. 

    I was informing people with questions to actually go a board that could answer them not this .... babble fest ...  I .. at one time came on these boards to take a look at information on new games and such ,,, never posted .,,, just read ... It is only just recently that I decided to start posting ... to add to the meaningless yap ... and when I saw one of the posters on here post deliberately deceptive screen shots and lie out his teeth to badmouth the game. 

    (Why? I asked myself.)

    Mid-level, yes. Lower level? That's just untrue.

     

    By the end of beta every single starting zone was nearly complete. If you got to level 40 and searched around, you'd see how very different things were then.

    Nice to know you changed your assertion from "high level" to "mid level" though.

    You can love Vanguard all you want.. but when you start trying to convince yourself the community is SO much better then other games.. you are crossing the line..  honestly..



    well most of the bad community is people like you on these boards ... I am assuming...if you played the game at all ... that you probably acted the same way in game .... So that means nothing to me.

    You probably have no idea what your talking about ... and just like to hear yourself babble ...  Maybe he likes the community....maybe he has more experience then you in game and it led him to that opinion...your telling him he is crossing a line?...listen to yourself for a second and figure out who is crossing the line. Get a grip.

      /yawn What? are you the same guy with a different name?

Not for me. Congrats to everyone still having fun with VG.
    Oh yeah, not a big fan of the character models either.

    A few days worth of experience if you're playing for two minutes a day. Assuming that you can't get back to your tombstone or get a rez and restore 85% of what you lost, you are still only dealing with 10% loss. You tell me it takes a "few days" to gain 10% of your experience at any current level? Again, if you are playing a few minutes a day, then yeah.

    Outright lies like this just will not do.

    bye!.

    Clearly you did not read my post.  I did not explore this “huge world” in two weeks, because I have found nothing in the game during that time that makes me believe it is worth exploring.

     

    The quests are straight out of any other MMO.  The world graphics are ok but seem very poorly used.  The spell effects are awful.  You have to grind to see any of the lore.  The animations are substandard.  After picking your class and race there is little to no way to customize your character.  If you think you can find depth in that more power to you.

    Wussy!  Endure the blandness or one of these guy shall taunt you a second time.  What?  You don't know every single liitle detail of this huge bland world?  Well then your impressions of what you have seen must be wrong, noob!

    I know what I like and what I dont.  I can tell if I like a game in an hour tops.  I dont like Vangaurd and dismissed it from my computer.  Those of you who play it, good luck to ya and I know the devs who have to put food on the table thank you very much.

    When I said i had "time", i meant virtual time, i got no RL "time" for you.

    Unfortunately for you, I do not serve your daily breakfast, lunch or dinner, and I don't condone indulging your personal abundance. I also find this highly unethical and consider it a fleecing aswell.

    Its not a lie. Somtimes I would play for a few hours grinding away, then I would die and lose all those hours of playing because the death penalty is way to high. People like you probably play 47 hours a day so thats nothing but, some players have jobs and lives outside of VG so a few hours a day is all I can play. Its cool maybe VG isnt for the casual gamer I'll just have to go play some of the games that are currently out that do. I'm not looking to begin a new life I just want to enjoy playing an mmorpg.

    You guys notice how each players class is the same? Like each sorc is the same as every other sorc? How come we cant specialize in different areas or skills? I mean real skills not crafting or diplomat. Thats a major turn off.

    I play about three hours a day. I've never once lost experience from a single death that set me back several days. Now, I'm not an idiot. I don't die repeatedly for no good reason. THAT might set me back several days. A single death wll NEVER set me back several days. ANY outdoors death is a guaranteed CR for me for only about 2% loss. I don't go wandering through fields of purple mobs.

    Oh yeah, I congratulate you on the orginal "you have no life and no job" line of reasoning. I NEVER heard it before. So original I want to cry.

    What is it with people who don't like a game that they MUST convince others that do like just how horribly wrong they are. And their wrongness surely stems from their sex-life or current job.

  • GrunchGrunch Member Posts: 493

    Well I guess you are a superior VG player. I have died twice in a row once because I was dumb enough to try and actually run back to my tombstone and died again, and another time when I teleported to an area surrounded by aggressive lvl 30+ mobs and I was only lvl 14 so I got to die a lot until finally being able to recall. Also I'm sure you never crashed while fighing somthing then log back in with xp dept. To some it up, the risk isnt worth the reward.

     

    I'm still kinda pissed that they tricked me into paying $50 for this pos mmo.
