• Welcome to the Vanguard Community

    These forums date back to the game's origins as the Crysis mod Traction Wars. Over the years the game and internet habits have evolved and discord.gg/vanguardww2 is now the principle home of the community.

    The team continue to read and reply to posts here, but we can be contacted more quickly on Discord.

    Map Ideas Thread

    Narvik April 1940 for a port attack. British, Poles and French vs. German sailors and wehrmacht. No heavy weapons except a French tank if you like (stuck on the beach). Optional extras: Royal Navy ship guns on call if you implement radios; strafing by Stukas. Now, could the devs put some kind...

    Game Update – 0.5.5

    Assuming these posts are being read . . . . Merville map: tyre texture on lorry is the road; grass growing through crate. While roaming around, I was shot (very poor grunting sound affect) but there had been no notification of another player joining the server. Pegasus map: grass growing through...

    Game Update – 0.5.5

    On Saturday 11/5/19. :coffee: Joined Merville Battery, day, and had a look round. Very liked the sense of movement around the area and it was immersive. The 'run before breathless' distance is unrealistically short for a para and should be at least doubled. Glitches and bugs. "Replace me"...

    Legacy, I agree with you except that it might be better to wait a few more weeks, so more edits can be made to the game. The current game play is noticably smoother than the original release. The game still falls significantly short of the interface players expect of a 2019 game, and that...

    Lookin good

    Sorry for being stupid but I have no idea what Discord is for and what I am supposed to do about the messages sent by Discord to my email. So I missed something yesterday ... :-p Any body found it useful?

    Game Update – 0.5.5

    Moving around the Pegasus map tonight 10/5/19 - footsteps were mostly excellent, and maybe we can expect sloshing for water in the future; some lights and lamps can be shot out, hopefully the others can be programmed later; some lights are not casting a shadow; shadows generally are excellent...

    A few suggestions on first impression

    1 My shadow (on a wall) was standing then crouching while I was crouched looking round. 2 The Settings change from toggle to hold has not taken affect, possibly went wrong with next log in. 3 The graphic settings are causing a problem and I shall have to put everything on low. The screen...

    Live Gameserver Status Banner

    Hello FeuerStorm, I understand that your input is from a player not a developer. My comments were additional to your banner because it is a very good idea. 1. The map currently being played could be depicted as an outline and players would recognise the shape. 2. The devs would be able to put...

    Game Update – 0.5.3

    Tonight (29.4.19), the How To Play and Submit Feed back options worked not. Also, when the server list displayed it over laid the main menu which should have disappeared. Like the way the game is going (y)

    Live Gameserver Status Banner

    What is a Live Game Server Status? Is this going to be the servers in the lobby, so a list of servers is a list of banners? If that is the case: :giggle: 1 we would not need the 'Vanguard Normandy 1944' text, except we might need 'Normandy 1944' in the long term if the game includes other...

    Dev Update – Feature Roadmap

    Going for the easier fixes first is not always the best priority. Here is a proposed priority ranking for your plans: • Bug fixes • Prone (makes a big difference but we understand it's very time consuming to program) • Improvements to new player experience • Enhancements to server browser •...

    Game Update – 0.5.1

    A couple of suggestions about the start/end of game, in a lobby. VG lobby text is much too small to read quickly. Usually there is a list of about 10 servers per lobby screen with quick and easy to read large text, and the match server should use the same large text, showing team name, player...
