Can someone tell me a bit about this game that has played beta?

I just wanted to know how it compares to the complexity of Star Wars Galaxies pre-cu (aka the best MMO ever). World of warcraft is an easy-mode MMO for 13 year olds, how does this compare? Player cities? Player houses? Complex Crafting? Mineral Gathering?

Sorry, I just saw the screenshots and am very excited

You seriously need to pull your head out of your ass if you think Star Wars was worthy of even hitting the shelves. That shit is worth as much as the clear tape that you use to hold your glasses together.

I guess you play world of warcraft. I'm sorry to hear that. I'm surprised you had time to type that message, shouldn't you be busy doing the same instances over and over for your l33t tier 3 items?

So how is this game? complex? fun? what are its disadvantages?

Sorry to disappoint, but I haven't played WoW for over a year. Was just laughing at the fact that you thought Star Wars Galaxies was worthy of any recognition ( one of the worst mmo's to date ). Without playing Vanguard, I'd bet on the game pretty much surpassing it in all the categories you are asking! Maybe PM Oberyom since he seems to know a lot about it. We don't have a representation of DB in that game so that is your best option in getting a serious response.

thx mate, I'll PM him now. Star Wars Galaxies was a very buggy MMO i'll admit, but the social atmosphere and the way the community came together to run the game was amazing. I'm sure it helped that Star Wars is one of the most popular movies ever and to this day people claim Jedi as their religion on US Census polls.

Either way, it was fun being imperial and ganging against the rebels.. having our own cities, and having other things to do besides go to ironforge and /yell for items.

Sorry for retaliating against you there and assuming you play that awful game WoW. Hope the best for you and hopefully I'll see you in vanguard sometime.

SWG had some great ideas and was well thought out, but the main problem was that game, like every title SOE publishes gets pushed out the door no matter if its finished or not. SWG at release was as good as paying to beta test. After they changed the combat system the game was worthless imo.

I don't see Van being any different. There are a ton of things still missing/bugged/still being worked on, yet once again they are pushing out the door on the 30th.

Thx for the info Trash - Still no one has really answered my questions though .. :(

the game reminds me alot of old EQ very fun.. fights are alot faster... but so far I havent seen a class that is useless some are a lil overpowered in pvp right nwo btu from what ive seen that is mostly level /gear and dependant on weather they are grouped... if you played eq 1 it will be quite easy to get the hang of... love it so far item loot hasnt been implemented yet... supposedly coming to a new server that is coming post launch... but yeah gonna be a team and ffa server at launch wich if you preorder is the 30th i think.
