When in danger or in doubt, run in circles scream and shout.

I can't say with any detail how the game has changed because I haven't subscribed to SoH for awhile myself.

That aside, I can say that its technical performance improved considerably.  I was able to run it with the settings nearly maxed out and the game ran at a respectable speed.

SoH seemed very focused on "collect X amount of Things" tasks at the time, but there were also some other, more interesting things to do if you could get a group together to complete the chained quests.

Others will have more detailed responses than mine, I'm sure.

Anyway, have fun. :)

As i said in the AOC forums .VG is not the same game it was a year ago ,no where near. It has inproved 10 fold but other on here who have not played the game in months will try and tell you differant because they dont believe in second chances.

The best place to ask is forums.station.sony.com/vg/forums/show.m

Im not the moste experienced AoC beta player I can admit to that. BUt I torn beetween switching to AoC or staying in VG. AoC seems like a lush world, if that is the right expression. But... there is always that but.

What was it you wasn't impressed with?

If you still like vanguard i would stay. AOC is really nothing special at all. It will end up being an elitist guild game anyways, so unless you have a million hours to dedicate to the game and like taking orders from some 12 year old guild leader i would stay with VG.

All these people waiting on AoC...don't know what to tell you other than I've been in the beta since Oct. 2007 and let me tell you..even polished up it's nothing special. I find logging into vanguard and playing a more enjoyable experience than AoC. To each their own though.
