images by brad himself. he gotta be kidding right?. 1920x1200, high graphics settings and it looks like something my 7year old kid could have made with mspaint. looks as bad or worse than my screenshots from horizon / eq1 to be honest. http://www.bradmcquaid.com/Mid/MidLevelBattle017.jpg check his post for the 17 other shots

Vanguard Saga Of Heroes ftw! |
It's the enviroment thats alittle boring in my opinion. But that's just becouse i dont like deserts. I mean , to make a game come live as creaters use to say. It's kinda odd to pick somthing totaly dead like a desert. A desert is never nice to look at, and never fun to walk in.
I have great expectations from this game though. I think im gonna like it alot. |

im stil hoping it will turn out alright, but the latest set of vids and now these screenshots just left me feeling cheated. gone is the stunning work, and amazing character art, and we are left with a eq2 style plastic world and characters where characters the most of the time looks out of place or even misplaced (feet sticking into grund, collision with rocks or other players). im having a hard time swallowing this plastic graphics when you compare to other games around the corner. i know its all vaporware til we get it in our hands but comparing the current results i fear VSH will end up like eq2 with a small, very small, player base and as a result limited funding. |

It is possible. God I hope it isn't just like EQ2. I have hopes that VSoH will be innovative. I admit the screenshots scare me a bit too, but at this point I wouldn't worry about them. There is more important content to take notice to. |

What the hell is that guy on the left kicking? (besides himself for beta testing this game that is)

That is what I was wondering, and that side kick is all wierd like hsi ankle is broke. Sure you can hit with the heel or edge of your foot with a side kick but your ankle doesn't angle like that. |

I must admit.. those screens are ugly. the desert when you zoom in looks nice.. it has a good texture etc. but when I look at the whole picture.. heh i'm really disappointed =/ they should look at gw.. that game has nice graphics and you don't need pc for few thousand dollars to run it =[

If you read my posting record here and otherwise you'll see I am no fanboi of Vanguard, but rather critical. Still, I feel I have to defend the screenshots a little. First, those shots, like some others, are deserts or steppes. They are supposed to be bare. Second, while they are not breathtaking, they are alright. Remind me of Tatooine in SWG, which is still one of my fav games by world design. I know other prefer smaller but more dense zones, like WOW has, but I always loved the wide and vast areas of SWG, and Vanguard seems to have similar landscapes. Finally, large landscapes with too filled and detailled things in it might demand high end computers, so I prefer a balance between detail and hardware demand, tbh. I have no gain of a high detailled game which I cant run on my machine. Sigil would be quite able to program many more details into it, but eventually it would limit the number of people who could run it on their computers too much. EDIT: Anyone who says Vanguard does NOT look like EQ2 now gets punched!! Those toons and armour, dammit EVERYTHING looks so everquestish. |
