0 SOE now doing dev work on VG. O F F I C I A L    V A N G U A R D    F O R U M S

Actually, one of the loaner designers from SOE is working with on my team (well.. not MY team, but the team I'm on) and he's extremely creative and really helping out a lot. He's jumped in with both feet and is very much "On Board" with our ideas and philosophies and is a true collaborative asset to our development.

Just because he worked on EQ2 doesn't mean he can only work in that design spec and is trying to turn Vanguard into EQ2.

0 New Targonor Revamp? (need it) O F F I C I A L    V A N G U A R D    F O R U M S

New Targonor is actually VERY large, especially when you consider that it's all one piece, with no zones or any instancing within it's walls.

Other games you've mentioned such as EQ2 or FFXI all have zones within their city limits.

0 What are you listening to now? O F F I C I A L    V A N G U A R D    F O R U M S

There's been a lot of heated emotional debate going on in other forums, which is of course expected when people are so passionate about anything like this game we're making.. So I thought I might try to bring a little more light-hearted community aspects to the boards

So what music are you listening to these days? Give me your current top 5 CD's in any order of preference.

NOTE: I'm not interested in who is better than who, or any sort of arguments.. Just curious what music people like..

I'll start:

Avenged Sevenfold - City of Evil
Dream Theater - Octavarium
Muse - Everything/Anything I can get my hands on from these guys.
Fates Warning - FWX
Robbie Williams - Swing While You're Winning (all covers of old Frank Sinatra/Dean Martin/Sammy Davis Jr. type stuff).

Hehe.. that was actually a copy of YOUR guild when you entered the trial. In effect you were fighting yourself.

Enhance your calm John Spartan..

Nothing productive can come from threads like this truthfully because people's emotions get very worked up over partial or misinformation.

0 Anyone else enjoying Elder Scrolls 4 ? Sigil you should strive for graphics like ES4. O F F I C I A L    V A N G U A R D    F O R U M S

Oblivion is a great game.. Probably one of the best single player RPG's I've played in a LONG time. I'm having a lot of fun with it and the environments are very nice.

That said.. I think Vanguard's character modeling is FAR superior and our environments are far beyond anything else in the MMO space.. Single player games have distinct advantages in that they never have to render the amount of characters onscreen that an MMO will.. so they can spend that computer power elsewhere.

0 V:SoH crafting same as EQ2? O F F I C I A L    V A N G U A R D    F O R U M S
Apr 04, 2006 - 06:13 PM - by Elidroth
Crafting in every other MMO I have ever played (which is just about every major title ever released) bored me to tears or gave me carpal tunnel syndrome.

Crafting in Vanguard to me is very enjoyable, and unlike other games, is VERY productive all the way to the high end game. I honestly can see there being a large group of people who play this game who never do anything but crafting.

One ability is similar to the rogue in WoW and suddenly the whole class has changed? A lot of you have made quite a leap, more often than not to completely incorrect conclusions based upon very little actual information, and no hands-on gameplay of your own. The rogue is NOT the WoW rogue. It is something I worked very hard on to make unique and different from any other rogue seen in an MMO yet.

So how about every take a step back and relax, and have a little faith..
