Vanguard gets a 9/10 for beta

Lores · Unread post by **Lores** » Thu Jan 25, 2007 11:22 pm

By my count it's 30 hours until early acces to Vanguard, 1:30pmET Friday. Have we selected a server?

I understand we will not need to do a reinstall. There will be a 5mg or so download.

This link is for the 9/10 review. They sum it up as epic.

Yep saw that, I very nice review.

I dont know the answer to the server problem, no-one wants to commit to a server before we see what they are like.

I would suggest that the first people on post in this forum which server they have joind so the rest can follow suit.

I'm just glad there's no reinstall. That game is HUGE!

Well, there isnt any detail information out there, we dont even know where the US servers are located.

Ok a bit more info:

"US Servers are all in San Diego (west coast), and the EU servers will be in Europe of course."

So there you have it, any of the US servers will suit Istik, so lets make a choice.

So, PvE, PvP or RP?

Personally, you won't find me on an RP server unless that was the only way to play with the people I love to game with

I'm far too silly for RP

I actually don't like server-wide rulesets but who knows how it will actually play out in practice? I hear it works well in DAoC but don't know how it works out in other games. Would anyone like to share their experience?

As to PVE vs PVP, well.. what are you all in favour of?

I'd like to be able to do both as I enjoy both.

Its a big, and there will be another large update when you launch, just like SWG.

So you joining us then?
