Just Bought The Pre-Order

ChaoticaChaotica Member UncommonPosts: 93

Greetings all,

As you can tell, I'm new here. I just pre-ordered Vanguard, installed the beta client and set up Vanguard on my Sony Station ID. I already play Everquest II and occasionally flit over to SWG to see how things are. I have to say, after watching the video on the DVD and paging through the screenshots and lore, I am beyond excited about this game! It's like they took two of my favorite games, UO and DAoC, and combined them and then made them even better! I can't wait to setup a house, attain a coveted mount and sail on my very own ship! I look forward to doing battle with Pirates as well as exploring the lands from one end of the map to the other. The screenshots show an absolutely gorgeous world! I can't wait to immerse myself in that world and become a hero with my very own story! I am currently rattling mailboxes, pulling together friends from other games and trying to assemble a decent sized, roleplaying/gaming guild. I have a lot of work to do, but I'm so excited I barely notice that it's work. I look forward to getting to know the rest of you and learning more about Vanguard: Saga of Heroes. image

    Its made by SIGIL, not SOE!! Soe is just the publisher, they take care of billing, the servers, advertisement etc...Sigil are the developers, they make the game and have full control over it and then also take care of customer support. In short everything in game is taken care of by sigil and everything else on the side that really doesnt matter soe does.

    Yea , i think i am going to preorder vanguard to. I think it being part of the station access is very good because i can play eq2 and vanguard which seem to be 2 very diff games. I think if vanguard is good it will help all the games on the station access not hurt,  because it will get people to play some of the other ones to. Vanguard is more of  a eq1 game not quite but it is close whereas eq2 is alot like wow but better so it gives a little variety.

    Can you play beta now with the pre-order, or is this beta client for when they open beta?

    I still have to wait for an invitation. I wish it was a guaranteed invitation, but it's not. Still, I can hope. image

    I could have written most of what Chaotica wrote. I too have pre ordered Vanguard (the Guild edition) and I'm very excited about getting to play the game. You can file me under "Former WoW players (who want something deeper)".

    My retailer wrote that it will ship late January...so, won't it be weird if the game isn't released at that time too?

    I just got my pre-order box and I was kind of dissapointed. I have already seen all the screenshots and the video, so it was nothing new to me. It seems to me that they just released this to get people into the game for the "pre-release" where they throw thousands of us on a server to see if it crashes. Nothing wrong with that. I was just hoping for some exclusive pictures or videos. Oh well.

    In no way does this effect how I feel about Vanguard as a game and I will continue to check the forums constantly every day because I have no life. I'm not too picky about my games, what really interested me was the diversity. I'm tired of looking like everyone else. I want to be Terros Nightcloud, not Rogue #334629. That is what I think will hook me in and cloud out the negative aspects of the game.

    I have also picked up the preorder box. Can't wait for open beta so I can have my own impressions.



  • Casanova48Casanova48 Member Posts: 23
    Hopefully it wont take to long for open beta and lets keep our fingers crossed that the game wont be delayed for to long
  • neuronomadneuronomad Member Posts: 1,276

    I picked up my copy of the Pre-Order box today.  Figured that I would give it a try at launch so if it turns out as big as some people are predicting, at least I will be starting on the ground running.

    Really no need to call some one a "complete retard" just for that. Publishers have big part and with out em we would't see any games.

    Honost misstake.

    Every time I read your post, I die a little inside...

    Publisher had no part in this game.  The early stages of beta publisher was MS.  Sony only got involved in the last few months.  People are just stupid and dont like SOE.

    If i pre-order Vanguard, will i be able to take part in the beta?

    I'm amazed that men like you can be so shallow, thick and slow. There is not a man among you who will care whether I come or go....not one...not one of you

    publishers might not develop but they write the checks so you can bet the devs pay the guy writing them real close attention. That's the way it is in the real world, money talks and everyone who wants the money listens.

    I miss DAoC

    Do you understand what the word PUBLISHER MEANS.  The publisher DOES NO WRITE THE checks .  THEY PUBLISH the item and get money for doing so. 

    SOE didnt even get involved in this game until a few months ago therefor how much input cuold of they had because the game was already  well into beta when they got involved.

    One more IMPORTANT note is SOE is a CO publisher not a sole publisher of Vanguard.  Sigil is also the publisher.  SOE is only doing the backend shit with the servers and billing for the game not the development, since the game was already taking form when they got involved.

    Im not sure of the full details of this game, but if im hearing correctly you need to preorder the game to participate in the open beta?

    lol..

    When will people learn that preordering one of the dumbest, most dangerous thing as a software customer you can do? (Besides buying at EB games)

    Sigh .. Well hopefully its not true. Wouldnt be surprised if it is though.

  • spiritglowspiritglow Member Posts: 171
    The only Pre-orders i'm buying are for Guild Wars because there's no raiding required since there's no raiding in the game...
