Re: Vanguard Review

UBER QUOTE AHOY!!! (for those who cant connect)

ZOMG TEH QUOTE GOT NERFED!!! (see above link for full review)

Quote:
Closing Comments - Is it ready for release? No. Is it still a beta?
Most certainly. Is it worth paying monthly to play? Definitely. Despite its
problems: graphical, lag and game bugs this reviewer found it to be a very
enjoyable gaming experience and will almost certainly be subscribing for
months to come. Having played various MMORPG games both in beta and at
launch, Vanguard: SoH has its fair share of bugs and lag but no more than
any other games in the genre during their launch periods. Time and money
can only improve the sturdy game hiding beneath the at times irritating
bugs and this reviewer will be buying a new PC shortly in anticipation of
many happy hours in Vanguard: Saga of Heroes.

Graphics: 8/10 - High powered engine cripples slower PC's, looks
nice on higher detail settings
Sound: 7/10 - Decent ambient sounds, non-intrusive music, good
sound effects
Gameplay: 8.5/10 - Lag issues aside, plays exceptionally well and
is great fun
Lifespan: 10/10 - A massive world to explore, different races,
classes, crafts, dungeons its all here
Overall: 8.5/10 - Buggy, laggy, with massive potential to be a
great MMORPG

Scoring System - Marks out of 10. 5 is Average. "Overall" is not an average
of Graphics, Sound, Gameplay & Lifespan.

System specs:

AMD64 3700+, 2gb RAM, ATI X800XTPE
AMD Athlon 2500+, 1gb RAM, ATI X700PRO
(btw if this was a bad thing to do, say so and ill edit it out :P)
