It takes a village to raise a child, but it takes a viking to raze a village!

Its funny really, all these people dogging this game about bugs, which have really come a long way and most performance issues and bugs have been dealt with. People just love to have something to hate on. Personally the only thing scarier than people giving an uninformed opinion on a game they arent familiar with, is these same people will walk into a voting booth with the same problem. Carry on sheep!

I just played the game again in January 2008 during the free come-back period.  I did not see much of a change from launch to justify playing this game.  Yes, the performance was a little better but the hitching, chunking, bugs, and falling through the world still exist.  There is not a huge improvement.  Slight improvement at best.

If you enjoy it, great.  Somehow it has managed to survive.  I will give it that.

 

 

Were the bugs gamebreaking or just the minor annoying type?  How many times did you fall through the world?  I played for nearly two months recently and that didn't happen to me once. 

I also played at release, and there is no comparison for me.  Vanguard today is tons better than release Vanguard IMO.  I'm not saying the game is perfect today, but it's not the crappy game it was a year ago either.  I'm not sure if it'll ever be what I would consider a finished product, but it's definitely moving in that direction. 

I plan on coming back for a month after this next update to see what's changed.  I'm come back sooner if I had faith that the dev team was large enough to really fix the game in a timely manner.  Unfortunately, I do not believe that it is, so I'm taking a wait and see approach.
