That actually doesn't look half bad.

Sadly, one of the main reasons why I don't play it. Runs like shit on my computer.

Er, is this stuff the SOE devs came up with or is this unfinished Sigil stuff? Why do the models look like Rallos Zek armor suits and Trakanon?

Or at the very least, take the information that is being offerred, store it away in your head and keep it in mind once the game is released, before you essentially light your 50 bucks on fire and throw it out the window.

It's temptin to call out several of the more venomous attackers from the last 5-7 months (some of whom are posting in this very thread), whose tunes have completely done a 180 and now, suddenly, they can "see the light". You asshole's know who you are.

Your no messiah, we all knew what we were getting into. You did no one any help by repeatedly bashing out the same tired line day after day. You were wrong as much as you were right. Go fuck yourself.

Hey thanks to you guys (Ut, Neric, THK etc) a lot of people saved money so feel free to go ahead and abuse the crap out of the vanbois. They deserve it.

Hi2U Holymight, are you still playing your "way more fun than WoW" game? Quite a achivement really, to go from one of the most famous guilds in the world's most popular online game, to something pathetic like VG.

Rayne · 05-15-2007, 05:44 AM

Damn. Just when this thread was about to really go places, I gotta head off to work

Oh well, should be a pretty interesting read with a beer tonight

It was kind of like watching a train wreck you couldn't stop. You yelled at the engineer and the station workers for them to switch tracks but they seemed not to hear you from a distance. And then, once it happened, as much as folks wanted to look away they couldn't quite bring themselves to.

I followed this game since around '05 and even talked it up to some friends, one of which bought the game. And the poor guy was coming from SWG. Talk about a kick in the doodads! I'm gonna try to make that up to him with at least my LotRO buddy key.

Hate to see folks lose their jobs though. Best wishes to all the SGO employees for a brighter future.

But I do know that at approximately 4:30PM today, Sigil employees were told to meet outside. At which point they were terminated. On the spot.

Holy shit they shot them? The game isnt THAT bad.

Pfft. The argument against Ut/Neric/Etc was never that they were completely wrong.. It was that they posted the same shit every minute on any thread regarding Vanguard.

I think most poeple knew that the game was struggling and probably going to bomb due to a shitty release(basically like shadowbane), but it was annoying that everytime something came up about vanguard the same people would cut and paste their last responce in a completely new thread.

So now youre gonna go on about how right you were for another 10 threads? Because you know, it takes 1000 posts by you to get your point across.

BTW nothing has changed. At its core its still a better game than that swill your playing now.

Guess your entitled to an opinion. God help us if you become Commander in Chief of anything but asshattery.

Hahahahaha. You still have that hotkeyed....

Fundamentally its a piece of shit game designed with piece of shit leadership that failed like a piece of shit. There's really no other way you can look at it. Its unfortunate for Sigil employees - but if we saw it months ago, I'm sure they saw it too. Hopefully they had time to get their resumes in elsewhere and the good devs there (all 4 or 5 of them) will be snatched up to work on projects with a future.
