Ok, Sony game, not had any experience of online games with them, some of you might with SWG.

Worth bothering with the game or not? Ye or no?

Pro´s:
Graphics
Plate armor looks bloody cool
Varied classes
Good amount of quests
Lots of content

Con´s:
Grindtastic
Crafting system is just wierd

Consider this was at least a year back! So i´d say Ye, definately!

Vanguard: Saga of Heroes - MMO Role Playing Game Where The Only Limits Are Your Own.

some vids there i think

 

[fettoken]

There was no PvP / RvR at all when i played.

 

[Imgormiel]

I am guessing same sorta genre as dungeons and dragons online, could be wrong....downloading it to find out, long dl too :E

 

[Imgormiel]

There was no PvP / RvR at all when i played.

So it's crap? :s

 

[Imgormiel]

Ok, it has a ffa pvp server, not tryed it yet as i wanna look around. Looks a bit like a cross between WAR and Oblivion so far. Certainly better looking than WAR anyways.

 

[Fafnir]

only reason i've not tried this, is that its SOE who runs it. Hate them.

 

[WiZe^]

SOE > GOA tbh :lol:

SOE > GOA tbh :lol:

Nah, got banned from SWG cause i wanted my stuff back after they went poof after a patch, all i had left was my naked char, gear, house, harvesters.

 

[WiZe^]

From what i heard form m8s who played SWG all quited when did the socalled revamp

 

[Afran]

Awful game, had potential, just never sprouted. The only good thing about V:SoH is/was the graphics, possibly the best graphics on an MMO out there (I'd say the best, but LotRO comes close), although performance was horrible when I played. The game almost feels like a korean MMO, it's all about grinding, and when I say grind, I mean grind. Quests are almost never worth doing, the only way to level is via grinding mobs. Although the two main reasons I quit were there was no end-game content (when I played atleast) and class imbalance was off the scale like never seen before

Been playing it semi-activly for a couple of month and its a totaly different game today from when it was launched two years ago. The exp curve have been lowerd and exp from quests improved, so questing is the way to go, there's no grinding in the leveling process anymore.
The crafting system is one of the best ive tried in any mmo, it takes a while to get used to it and its abit of a grind (wich crafting should be ). Diplomacy is compelling but awfully boring after a few hours.

The game is still quite rough on your 'puter, you need a decent system to run it smoothly and even then you get lag here and there... balanced is the settings most people ive talked to runs it well in...

The new newbiefarm "island of dawn" gives you a taste of all three spheres and a pretty good feeling of the game. Sadly almost all classes gets their defining abilities at level 14-16 and IoD is capped at level 10

[Imgormiel]

Played for a few hours, was ok imo, been offline though for the past few days, so still not been on pvp yet

 

[Imgormiel]

Have to say, that riding that Pegasus was prolly the sweetest thing I've done in a game since god mode fly around a map and doing it for the first time ever, damned nice tbh.

 

[- English -]

is there even pvp?

Im on teh Xeth server and heard theres arenas at 50.. not sure anyone plays them though hehe

 

[Imgormiel]

I am not on xeth as I wanted to look around, after all it's a 14 day trial, subbing will obviously move me to pvp.

So all I know is that there is a pvp (ffa) server, umm try attacking someone? xD

Damned nice game even without the pvp

[Imgormiel]

[- English -]

can you only play on 1 server per account?

nm!

 

[Imgormiel]

The ffa pvp server name is Sartok, just for anyone that wants to know =)

 

[XRolando]

I used to play a bit on Sartok, wouldn't mind coming back and trying out some more classes and playing my "old" (level 14 or so ) characters.
