They are out there. But I cannot post them in this forum. The mods have warned me against posting any further links to any beta 3 reviews, good or bad, that exist on the Interwebs. But they do exist if you look for them.

Which one? There aren't that many so you should be able to tell me. I think you're lying though.
The title of this thread is freaking hilarious. Bad review of a beta? LMAO Anyone who would review a beta shouldn't get the privelege of being referred to as retarded.
I'm talking about that so called "fight video" which reveals the gameplay of Vanguard. Check it out:
Please, try to be honest- and admit that there is NO FUN in what u see!! U have to agree that this vid is PATHETIC even for a game in beta...
i.e. it sucs!
Thank you, and goodnight...
Ok honestly I think someone was just feeling left out of the the flame Vanguard Train. I just watched your so-called "Pathetic" video and it really wasn't that bad. First of all most fight scenario's in mmorpgs look similar to that with the exception of different classes i.e. warriors,hunters and rogue's have different moves and such. Then you have the fact that it's BETA therefore a lot of the final product polish hasn't gotten put in yet. IMHO that fact that you are going to decide whether or not a game is fun by watching an ingame video from Beta seriously questions your judgement.
Originally posted by teaincup Originally posted by Evilplayer If that were the case and vanguard and really that good and there was more goods then bads about vanguard, don't you think that with about over 5k beta invites now that their would be a bit more then say .......300-500 beta testers on at peek time during the weekends????????
And that goes for beta 3 with the more invites they sent out, hell beta 2+ you would jump up and down with joy to log in and see over 100 on a friday night.
People were saying in beta 2 that the peak simultaneous was only 100 because the game was so boring. Recently, they have been saying that in beta 3, it's 1,000.
Has the peak simultaneous in the past few weeks in beta 3 already dropped from 1,000 to 300?
Well, For all of you that are wondering where are the posts screaming bloody murder about beta 3, i would love to point you to the oficial vanguard beta boards.
You see, its quite simple, there have been several leaks concerning beta 3, about as many as there were of beta 2, myself if some of you remmenber, was quite adamant on my critisism of beta 2. But as i atested, the vast majority of complaints were beeing made on the beta board.
The vanguard beta tester community has been quite vocal on whats wrong with the game during the wholle beta process since beta 2 was launched last christmas, some of the complaints were adressed, alot of them werent, mostly with the "it will be implemented/looked at/revised/worked on/ on later beta phases" responses coming from sigils part.
Myself, im still on the fence on this one, the game will either be a modest sucess akin to what everquest 2 is right now in terms of popularity, as i see it apealing to the same type of player, casual but with options for a more hardcore grinding/raiding gameplay at the endgame. That beeing said, it can also become one of the most troublesome AAA mmorpg launches since anarchy online, mainly do to the fact that sigil is impleting a vast list of features that probably wont have enough testing time during the betas.
Why do i say not enough time to test and perfect all the features? If you look at the progress between each beta, it has been slow and extremely morose in implementation, the features we do have working, are still so bug ridden or incomplete, that sometimes the only thing you feel like doing is smack the monitor in agravation. All of the advertised "big features" are not yet ingame in any playable state, and considering sigils track record at implementing fixes/features in a timely manner, i would think that alot of the content is beeing put on the "patch after release" basket.
The extremely slow development of the beta is something sigil must be worried about, their financial backing can only streach so far i would think, before the preasure from publisher and investors mounts up to a point were launching the game will be priority to the company, and the timetable they have been "leaking" to testers and press for the suppossed launch, leaves little time for sigil to be messing about the beta phase of the project, has they been doing for almost a year now.
Basicly, what im trying to say is, its about time sigil stoped experimenting with the game systems and make up their minds about what they think the players want, because everytime they completly redesign a gameplay system or think "oh it would be cool to have this feature in the game", they are geting themselfs into more trouble, as any game developer can testify.
Anyways, i think people would be happy to know, the fans at least, that the game is shaping up as a valid alternative to everquest 2, but still has a massive ammount of work ahead for it to have a chance at a sucessfull launch.

I'll start my own SWG... with Black Jack... and Hookers!!!
Like others have stated, you can't give a review from beta.
I agree that some people that break the NDA are doing it because they don't like the game. I have heard rumors that some of the beta testers love it, so I can't say that 100% of the people that break the NDA hate the game.
