Ok lets guess the fate of the mess that is Vanguard: Saga of Heroes.

  • 200,000-250,000 boxes sold.
  • 150,000 subscriptions after the first free month.
  • Free trial within 2 months.
  • Part of the SOE Access Pass within 3 months.
  • Revamp of classes and combat within 5 months.

Next.

whilst you are busy predicting the future - can you please tell me this weeks lotto numbers?

And I though VSOH was going to be part of the access pass at release.

SOE access pass as already announced starts on DAY 1. If you currently have an access pass i think you get in beta next week.

I'm having fun with the game and the Beta 5 textures look great. Have fun trying to flame!

Which balance do you prefer? The balance where every class can solo to 60 or the balance where no class can solo ala eq2 at release? Neither sounds fun to me. Why don't you just continue to play WoW and ignore Vanguard. That's what's best i think.

I doubt there are this many PC customers that the game would appeal to and that also have a system capable of running it with playable performance. 

Btw, 150K subscribers makes for a very profitable MMO.  Plus, I can't imagine that the performance issues that will probably be the biggest barrier to entry (even more than the hardcore game design) will persist for that long after the game is launched.  It is possible that Vanguard could gain a profitable following as large as the one for EQ 2.

I am not predicting.  I am guessing.  I could guess the lotto numbers for you if you like.  What state do you live in?  Each state has a different lotto. 

I never saw that VSOH was going to be part of the SOE pass at release.  The SOE pass wouldn't benefit Sigil one bit.

It might help SOE shut down EQ once and for all. I mean they've already pretty much revamped it and nerfed it and patched it to the point of it being some sort of frankenstein mmo. This game will have alot of appeal to those who still play EQ.

Oh and you're not predicting or guessing. You are flaming. You are a troll and you clearly haven't played the game lately if you think it's going to do so bad.
