in Vanguard: Saga of Heroes
When fileplanet let out the subscriber only beta i found this game really choppy, laggy and hard to play, I was running on a ATI radeon 9550, 1 gig of ram, pent 4 processor. I could run it on low but the graphics were HORRIBLE and i could run ti some on balance but the lag was pretty bad.



Now that vanguard is released has the preformance changed any ? Will i be able to still run it on my same computer specs? I dont have money to upgrade sadly.

Im bringin sexy back.

    You still going to have the problems on that system :P

    - The processor isn't good

    - The game uses about 1.3gb ram to run

    - THe GPU is very old and mid ranged for that series.

    Was just wondering about mine, too.



    P4 3.2GHz @3.6GHz

    2048MB PC-3200

    GeForce 6800GT @Ultra



    It runs F.E.A.R., Quake 4, EverQuest 2, HL2 etc. well, but I'm under the impression that Vanguard uses some other resources than those mentioned games, and way more of it.



    So... Will it do? Btw. I don't care at all about AA and AF.

    I say it'll run but it'll still be how it was when u tried it before :P If you can't handle playing like that then no.... The Burning Crusade is very fun though :)

    It'll run fine, just not at the highest quality.

    There are lots of guides to help "tweak" the Vanguard graphics settings, they would anyone...a lot.  It's always going to be a fight between performance over quality...just have to find that middle ground.

    this is only slightly relevant but I was told that my computer could run it on lowest settings pretty easily. Could someone post a screenshot of the worst graphics setting?

    lol.... this is all so crazy to me...



    MMO = 50 bucks + (3-6)*15 = 95-140 per customer.... and you don't have a true open beta where potential customers can answer this question themself? And you don't have a trial either? Even a 1-day trial would be better than nothing.



    So there are customers waiting on the wings... doubts clouding their minds.... not quite ready to jump in, and the vendor does nothing? What kind of marketing morons are working at sigil/soe?

    Solusek I'd say that the game will probably perform better than it did when you last tried it (they've made tons of performance improvements), but your system is still pretty old as far as capability, so it may not be up to the standard you want it to be.

    In short, it'll be better than it was before, but for you it still might not be playable. (I'd say it's worth a shot)
