I still enjoy playing the game but to put out an "update" when there are so many bugs, broken quests and lack of content is just wrong.

Ok, the game is in a rough state, so we can whine complain jump up and down what ever and play it like it is.

or

we can be happy for patches, enjoy patches and play the game, and Keep posting and bugging the issues.

or

I can quit. Obviously I chose 2 of 3.

I also disagree about content, so far 3 characters, highest at 21, and guess what? I havent reused any content yet, not even one road, one city one quest. I would say thats content. Now I dont just walk into a dungeon and kill for a few hours and say I used the content. I do my best to start at the low end and continue through for as long as my level allows or until I have seen it all. With these massive premiere dungeons? I havent even come close, even VoH was so big I didnt see it all, but most of it and thats just standard.

So lack of content? I disagree. Lack of polish, fit anf finish? oh yeah.

The only lack of content comes from the people that look for the shortest road to the end. Just today on my server I'm lvl 33 theres guys lvl 43/44 and I'm still getting server first kills,loot,mobfinds so ya theres alot of people just simply not out exploring.

I disagree with people who say there is no content, as well. On my Psionicist, who is now almost level 20, I've spent the majority of my time from level 12 onwards inside Khegor's End - that's it. Now, I have fully explored the place and finished all the quests, but until recently I still had quests to do and I was still finding new place. For a low level teen dungeon the place is just massive.

Using my invisibility spells I have also explored Fallen Lyceum, which is also huge, and Hilsbury Manor, which isn't as huge as far as I can tell, but there is some underground cyrpt system, I couldn't access (ala Unrest) so maybe that'll make it even larger.

And these are just a few "mid level" dungeons that are on Thestra, now throw in solo and small group quests and I think you've got a ton of content.

the content is not bad for lower levels

the major problems start coming up at 40+ currently. a week or two ago 30-40 was in bad shape as well. hopefully 40-50 will get some action with this update.

If it was already in the works to go in, then big deal. Coders are not artists and vice versa, so its not like the coders were wasting time with this.

im taking a small break at 40, unless i feel the need to grind, hopefully this update will put in a little love for the 40+. the low lvl content is awesome,Higher lvls...not so much(zone wise, much better, quest/things to do, not much)and i do have a alt, but most of my time goes into my main...maybe if i didnt have to go to school i would do some lower lvl stuff over =\. i would sugest going to Vanguard Radio - Your #1 Vanguard Station and listen to the exclusive interview about update 1,full of awesome info and a few *Hints* at things to come! ^_^

someone slept through their alarm this morning. No patch, yay!

[Tkon]

I think it will end up being at like 7:00 p.m. today. Which would suck =/.

[Tkon]

I just finished that radio interview, he said at the end that it's tonight =/.

So tired of hearing the minority whine and complain about "content". The majority of players, probably 40-1 ratio or higher, are still high teens, low 20's.

I would prefer they fix the quests and things that are broken before actually catering to those who did nothing but grind 5 dungeons to get as high as possible in as short a period of time as they could. I sit back at lvl 30 and laugh at them, all standing around, just like in WoW with nothing to do but go back and play alts and actually experience the entire game.
