Vanguard: Saga of Heroes has entered Beta 2!

It is an exciting time for us as we begin to gradually invite more people into Beta to help us continue to test and develop Vanguard and make it the game we are all waiting to play!

Thank you for your support as we enter this next phase of our development. We look forward to seeing many more of you in Beta soon ™!

So what does this mean? Basically that the game is undergoing more optimization, and more players are being let in to test. I personally alone know 3 people who have been invited in the last couple days. Pretty good news.

The 180 meg patches are always fun, but it's worth it.

Thanks for cutting through the confusing dialog of the Vanguard announcement with a clear and concise explanation, Rellix. If it wasn't for you translating that gibberish into terms understandable by common men, I fear most of us that aren't hip to their lingo would be left in the dark. Cheers!

Despite indicating that he thinks 180 meg patches are fun, Siji was using what is called sarcasm. In other words, he doesn;t think 180 meg patches are fun, but patches are a necessary evil in beta tests and if they fix bugs they are worth it.

Actually, none of them have met Brad McQuaid.

Just want to tip my hat to this burn. Kudos, sir. Kudos.

OMG this is fantastic news!

Yet you yourself haven't received your invite? That has to sting just a little!

Mr Bacon · Post by **Mr Bacon** » December 16, 2005, 11:30 pm

Didn't you see the post where I consistently complained about not having an invite because it's such a HUGE deal to me?

Rellix, I like you more than Xanupox. I hope that means something.

I have met Brad McQuaid, and you sir are no Brad McQuaid.

I just got an invite to this beta today. Is it worth trying it out?

Mr Bacon · Post by **Mr Bacon** » January 18, 2006, 12:20 am

kyoukan · Post by **kyoukan** » January 18, 2006, 1:15 am

Anyone at all?

Mr Bacon · Post by **Mr Bacon** » January 18, 2006, 2:46 am

My opinion on the matter is not biased. I say it's worth trying out because it is.

If you considered my view irrational then you can kindly screw off.

kyoukan · Post by **kyoukan** » January 18, 2006, 4:14 am

I'm surprised you have any view it all. It must be pretty dark with your head lodged up Brad McQuaid's rectal cavity.

You should use the xanupox scale to rate how much you like everyone.

I'm confused.. beta is a big deal, or Brad's schlongy wongy is a big deal?

Clearly you need another year+ away from this board again, as your whiny bitch mode is in full swing. Please, go for it.

Or did you get your invite?

You seem awfully passionate about the game for not having played it.

Mr Bacon · Post by **Mr Bacon** » January 18, 2006, 12:50 pm

I plead the fifth.

Post by **Sylvus** » January 18, 2006, 1:06 pm

So you played it someone's house or they lent you their info so you could install. Perhaps you should stop by our parts department and pick up a pair of testes; saying that you played it isn't going to get you or your friend banned, particularly if you don't mention who it was. Not only that, they have no way of getting your IP from here to match anything up(we're not going to give it to them) and your choice of login/character name isn't so original that they could find you with any certainty.

Besides, it'd be silly of them to ban someone who is so fervently proselytizing (read: smoking pole) for their product. Sack up, admit you've played it, and write from that perspective.

(disclaimer: i don't pay much attention to this forum so you might have done so in another thread)

Mr Bacon · Post by **Mr Bacon** » January 18, 2006, 1:12 pm

I did write from that perspective.

Yes.

Ask the folks in IRC if you really bothers you to know for sure whether I'm in or not. I would think with all the hints thus far, it's pretty obvious.

Siji · Post by **Siji** » January 18, 2006, 1:36 pm

I don't really care one way or the other, I'm not particularly excited for the game and I didn't even bother trying to get into the beta. Though I'll likely check it out when it's released as I do with most mmo's. I'm just saying that you're being kind of cryptic and if it's because you're afraid of something, you don't really have anything to worry about.

Aslanna · Post by **Aslanna** » January 18, 2006, 2:00 pm

I think it's safe to say the majority don't care who is in beta and who isn't.

masteen · Post by **masteen** » January 18, 2006, 3:05 pm

I should start a poll to see if I should abuse my mod powers on Rellix

I'm not afraid of exposing myself - there's been plenty of people who've mentioned it on VV already, and plenty who haven't. I honestly dont see a reason to do it. It doesn't make you look better or any more knowledgable. If anything I personally consider it a shameless attempt to get attention. Bragging rights? Who cares, your name was selected out of 30,000 - good job fitting the right specifications for a preferred tester and then getting picked at random?

Aslanna wrote:I think it's safe to safe the majority don't care who is in beta and who isn't.

I strangely enough feel the same way, which is why I don't see why people are making such a big deal out of whether or not I'm involved.
_______________
Sigh, let's just get a couple things straight:

1) I'm a fan of the game.
2) I'm following it pretty closely - chances are it's my next "big game."
3) I view the game as "worth trying out" at this point. This judgement is based on personal experience.
4) My opinion of the game is not one-sided or slanted in any manner.
5) I have never and will never "suck off" one Brad McQuaid, nor have I ever met him or spoken with him in person. The only time I've ever "conversed" (if you can even call it that) with him is posting on the official forums and us responding back and forth on a few separate occasions. Furthermore, not my head nor any other body part of mine has ever been inside his rectum at any time.

Post by **Sylvus** » January 18, 2006, 4:07 pm

I was just wondering if you were in it because you seem to be the game's biggest advocate on this site. Saying something is the best thing since sliced bread without ever having experienced it for yourself carries less weight than if you were actually in it. That's all I was getting at.

But now I know, and knowing is 48-52% of the battle.

Mr Bacon · Post by **Mr Bacon** » January 18, 2006, 4:15 pm

Thanks for the reasonable response Sylvus. It's good to see some users on this board still have some sense in them. I also completely agree with your "experienced it for yourself" idea.

So in other words, you are currently engaged in a perpetual McQuaid suck off.

False.

Xatrei · Post by **Xatrei** » January 18, 2006, 8:19 pm

My theory is that by the time Rellix jumped on the band wagon, the McQuaid already had more cock suckers lined up than he'd ever be able to actually use. Consequently, Rellix was pressed into service perpetually deep rimming McQuaid's dank man hole in exchange for his beta invite. His answer was honest - he does not suck off Brad.
