New Vanguard screen shots!

Brash · 05-04-2005, 05:27 PM

Since there is a new batch of shots coming soon I figured I would start a new thread.

The Dark Elf Rogue looks great. I can't wait to restart my old rogue in this new game.

mm they look ok but previous vanguard shots have been alot better, last pic doesnt even have any player shadow's and they look like they stick out of reality.
:/
The armour on the DE is quite cool the way, even reminds me of eq old style.

I'm digging the UI a lot more than previous versions I've seen. That skeleton looks kinda goofy though. Almost more like a clowning happy skeleton than a scary dangerous one.

Tactical recognition...hhmm...wonder what that is for? Makes you do more damage aguinst certain monsters you have fought before maybe? Or maybe makes certain skills and attacks do more damage as you learn to eb better at war? hhmm

That Dark Elf belongs in a UFO or something.

Yes.

I thought they may have been improving but these do a nice job of dispelling that thought. What shitty use of a good engine.

Is it me or does the DE have a nipple popping through her armor?

Elgonn · 05-04-2005, 06:43 PM

It isn't just you.

Thank you Vanguard for what I asked for in the last screenshot thread. Non-ornamental armor.

Brad and co already have a game that's better than EQ2. They have people who can actually draw character models without it looking all retarded.

Eomer · 05-04-2005, 06:47 PM

Combat system is looking cool, what with the "tactical recognition" as well as the "forms" and "openers" in the wee box. Interested to see how it all works, hopefully it's not just things as simplistic as kick and riposte etc were in EQ.

Ravensign · 05-04-2005, 07:01 PM

Its kind of ironic that the game that is the "real EQ2" for design, appears to be for graphics as well -- very similar in style, but slightly better.

It comes down to animation. Those screen shots in motion could look gorgeous, or like EQ2, ridiculous.

Watch a gnome or iksar run in EQ2, hilarity!

Well I don't know if it's my own personal MMORPG drought that makes me so desperate for a good game. But this game and DDO to a lesser extent is all that's keeping my interest at present. So I got a message for you two:

For gods sake start some external testing, and be sure to invite me!

That is all
