Vanguard Beta 3: Total Lagfest

"This is what I heard from a beta player. ...I would expect problems, I would expect lag. He is saying that it is SO bad that you cannot move most of the time. THAT is worth posting about. He would LOVE to test the game and make it great but thats a little hard to do when you cant even move a damn character a couple of feet."

    I've seen Player in beta footage, and it had a little lag but it was very playable.  I wonder what kind of High-end machine he has?

    Anywyas, I'm sure there is alot of lag.  If it is as bad as that guy said then hopefully they will have it fixed.

    We'll see how things change from now to release... I've never played so i cannot say if it is truly like that or not... just have to wait till actual reviews come in.

    A lot of players with high end machines think they should be getting 60 fps with settings on as high as they can go. I have seen the game play on a mid range computer and it seemed to get pretty good fps (30+). I hear it is worse in towns and when opening doors though, and I have heard that zoning isn't quite seemless yet, but I have also heard it seems to improve every few patches.

    LIES. Maybe he lied on his system specs and that's why he is getting lags or low FPS,  The minimum beta requeriment as posted in the FAQ is a 2.4ghz processor and  512 of memory, I have seen several beta 3 NDA breakers videos, without lag and without FPS problems. If your PC sux, obiouslly your experience will be bad. 

    There are also people, is what I heard, using Windows Vista beta and ovbiouslly Directx 10 that still is in beta, geting problems but not with directx 9.0c. I heard that  some diplomacy rewards were bugged, but that the diplomacy have been improved.

    I can't ignore lies, IDK why some people tries to inflict damage to Vanguard: saga of heroes, before the launch, is like the same people that were trying to damage EverQuest back 1999  were back to stop another gaming rev.

    Yeah, wow, that sounds really, really bad and it worries me.

    Well, it WOULD worry me if I had seen ANY videos that supported this conclusion.

    Out of all the Vanguard gameplay videos I have seen, one, and only one, poorly recorded "running and combat" video showed some minor glitches -- which were actually related to the FRAPS'ing and not to the gameplay.

    No other videos support this so-called "lag-fest."  It's a myth.

    Funny though.  Remember when this forum was filled with fans?  Then the letters, "SOE," were mentioned.  Since then, all the Hatebois, except jonaku, seemed to have left.

    Must admire this troll for persistence, if nothing else.

    lol. You better have waaaay above that minimum spec if you have any plans of actually moving your character. I can't wait for this game to go live so all the morons defending it can see what POS it is. Of course without ever having played beta myself this is just  mere speculation on my part.

    Trendson, something that I learned, is that people tends to insult and judge others looking to their condition, so that don't really bother me. If you have low expectatives about the game, there are more than 90 mmorpg, waiting for you, from runescape and UO to WoW and EQ2.

    Have fun.

    Jonaku is actually pretty cool.  He bases everything he says off of things actually said by others.  If the others are telling the truth or not, who knows, but still you can't take everything like it isn't true b/c yes, there is a chance it could be true.  I have never played VG so i cannot tell for certain if all things are true or if they are false, but i do try and defend answers with things i've heard, read, or seen.  If i've seen or heard something that  contradicts what has been said by others then I have reason to be suspicious.

    Nothing can be fully trusted (good and bad) until the game is actually released and reviewed.  So until then I will always strive to bring constructive critism to any argument.

    good job jonaku, grats on spamming the boards with yet another "i heard from a beta player vg sucks" thread. like the 100 other topics you made were not good enough. ::::12::

    you defiantly win the 2006 mmorpg.com "attention beggar" award, i look forward to the 100's of more threads you make about the same subject in the future so you can fill your life with the attention you so obviously are lacking. ::::18::

    thats great but why is it that he feels the need to make a topic every time he sees what someone els posted? why not just bump one of his 100's of other posts he has made on the same exact subject?

    its simple really, he defiantly is a troll looking for attention, nothing more. and IMO it has gotten to the point of what he says or who he quotes is irrelevant because it is always the same damn thing in every topic he makes.

    There weren't any comp specs requirements for the CGM keys that we gave away; if you bought a magazine, you got the key that you were promised and got into beta, regardless of your computer. 

    Not much we can do about people complaining that their GeForce3-based comp can't play VG (and yes, that has occurred) *shrugs*

    I don't think a little lag in beta is what Vanguard devs should be worried about.  That's the least of their worries.

    A more urgent problem is how to package the old EQ problems and tedium in a new graphics wrapper and sell it to today's MMORPG players.

    Now THERE'S a problem!

    More like, "He bases everything he says off of NEGATIVE things actually said by others." In the mean time, he totally ignores any positive things said (example, he posted links to the FoH message boards bashing beta 2 screenshots, but ignored the one praising beta 3 screenshots).

    Yes, I know Jonaku relays everything negative he finds to us.   We should read it, find as much info we can about the topic and any dev responses on anything concerning it to see if it is true, or not true.  I havn't played the game, and i'm sure alot of you havn't either so the best we can do to Jonaku and other vanguard has alot of negative spam is to find factual or close to factual information the topic and answer right back to prove or challenge the response.  The things we cannot prove willl have to wait till launch...  and until then everything is still up in the air. the negative and the positive both.

    Well its beta and for those who were in beta of EQ2 you would remember that antonica lagged so bad it was unplayable as was many zones in the game.Right up to the last day of beta there was lag.Launch was very smooth .

    Ive read enough of Jonakus posts to put him into the troll category. Why are u selectively posting negative posts of this game? Especially cinsidering those posts are "rumors", "words on the street" or otherwise of unknown origin. If you repeat a rumor 100 times to 100 different people, it wont make it true you know. I dunno what you have against Vanguard but if u have problems with something specific, show us that specific u r having problems with. Heres a link to a clip taken on highest settings on max resolution 1280x1024. PC specs GeForce 7950GX2, AMD 3000+ , 2gigs RAM - good card but not the best CPU. Average FPS 20, in towns 10-15, "hiccup" FPS lag is always present in towns - engine is not optimized (although some towns are better then others, dark elf town is fairly bad but high elf town is pretty good)
