Vanguard Galaxy News

[p]Hello everyone,[/p][p][/p][p]The closed beta test has begun! In it we are testing the features we have planned for the first Early Access release. There's still a few spots open, so if you want to help us test the game, drop by our Discord and let us know. Join the Vanguard Galaxy Discord[/p][p][/p][p]Before we go, we want to share a little preview of what's to come. For example this overview of the map with a whole bunch of sectors to explore.[/p][p][/p][p]Each of these sectors consists of systems, which can be closed off pockets with interesting things to discover or regular systems with representation of some of the different factions.[/p][p][/p][p]Like this one[/p][p][/p][p]In these systems you can fight your enemies[/p][p][/p][p]And loot their remains[/p][p][/p][p]Or relax and blow up some asteroids for valuable ores[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]You can loot, craft and discover many different modules and equipment with potentially very powerful effects. Allowing you to create a build suited to the role of your ship.[/p][p][/p][p]And test your latest combat build against waves of enemies to get even better loot.[/p][p][/p][p]All this and more is coming soon to Early Access.[/p][p]We hope to see you there[/p][p][/p][p]Cheers,[/p][p]Bad Roost Games[/p]
