Hes going to need to offer a little more than $100 bucks to get me to take that beta invite off his hands for him.

I know you played lots of stuff worst than Vanguard in your life. Actually, I know you payed to play lots of stuff worst than Vanguard.
So drop that attitude. The amount of forum kudos you can gain by bashing Vanguard is capped at 20. After that, you have to buy new skills or just levelgrind a little more (with autoattack).
EDIT: Thanks a lot, Shavnir :D

Rumor has it, the install folder is decently into the double-digit numbers. In gigabytes.

This is all part of McQuaid's plot to have everyone who wants to play this running a supercomputer. Then they'll harness the power of the Ren Faire through their supercomputers, and through some rift in time and space, the popular music becomes bardic harmonies.

Not sure if the catasses will be able to do it. They've been sacrificing their lives to play EQ, then WoW, for years....they may not have the cash from shit jobs to upgrade.

If only there were some way to sell in-game assets for money! My friend ended up selling one of AC Darktide characters for 2 or 3 grand. He then promptly used that to buy a new computer.

I have seen the screenshots. What sort of rig are you really going to need to run that? Worst case you will need to jam another hard disk in your chassis. My machine is something like four years old and I have 650GB of disk space strung up in there. I bet I could run it.

Sounds like somebody needs to invest in a better client distribution archetexture. Or are we breaking the NDA already?
A 1998 gig client wouldn't be a problem to the catass. It's not like they need to have more than one game installed.

Sheesh guys, we all got the invites. The only folks affected by NDA-breaking disclosure are folks not reading this thread anyway.

I know a guy who's best friend is on day 3 of just trying to get the files.  well I said what I said based on the fact that I overheard a conversation today between the friend of a guy I know and the janitor, and he was saying that his cousin's girlfriend received the invite on the morning and about 9 hours later it was done. And she doesn't even live in America. Of course the girl wasn't allowed to share the news about her participating in the beta with her boyfriend, but he was spying her with a security cam because when she called sick and barred herself in her room with the computer, he was sure she was cheating on him over the internet. Hope this is not a NDA violation though, apparently that poor girl was pretty excited about the game.

We will find her and ban her! ;)
I'm not in the beta either, sorry it was a bit ambiguous. I said "we" meaning "those on the thread" and not "we" meaning "those in the beta".
One of these days I might actually sign up for the Vanguard forums.

If it is information from someone in or invited to the beta that is not public knowledge, then it is probably an NDA violation. Err on the side of caution please.

Despite the vastly overwhelming negativity surrounding this game, I'd still like to see it for myself if anyone has a beta to give away :)

Technically, the very transference of your beta account was an NDA violation. Not sure why we tolerated it, but the deed is done.

You want to get technical? People talking about this shit at all is violating the NDA. I don't care how many friggin  you use. New rule: you can only talk about the NDA if you abide by it. Otherwise you're just e-peening and we all know it.

Curious is it NDA legal to talk/message to another BETA tester if you know they are a BETA tester? I am not referring to this game but really any BETA really. I assume that most NDA's have more or less the same language.

Depends on the NDA. I've seen some go so far as to say "Sure, you can discuss the game, but nothing negative" and others that say "You are agreeding not to so much as tell anyone you're in the beta, even if they too are in the beta." Gotta read those things to tell the difference. As for me, I'm not sworn under an NDA because I'm not in the beta. Therein lies the inherant risk of telling me things I shouldn't know.
