Tribes: Ascend v2: I went slow once and it was awful - Games

[QUOTE=LtBubbles;34541709]Doombringer sorta teached me how to use bullet weapons that, or it teached me how to waste 270 bullets to hit only 10.[/QUOTE] That feel when you pick up the flag and see Doombringer bullets wizz all around you.

[QUOTE=Raidyr;34541762]That feel when you pick up the flag and see Doombringer bullets wizz all around you.[/QUOTE] That feel when you shoot at a flag carrier and all yours shots whizz past them. [editline]5th February 2012[/editline] Another thing is, has anyone tested the combination of shield generator (Raider and Brute items) and the Potential Energy perk? I feel like it could slap some serious shit.

you should be able to run people over with grav cycles in this game

[QUOTE=Eltro102;34541936]you should be able to run people over with grav cycles in this game[/QUOTE] Would be cheap and annoying for everyone but the driver.

[QUOTE=Eltro102;34541936]you should be able to run people over with grav cycles in this game[/QUOTE] I remember doing that, has it been removed?

I just drive the cycles into our generator room and pin people onto walls

Techies are op as fuck at camping the flag

You can run people over in the grav cycle, just have to be going a certain speed. Max speed for heavies. [QUOTE=ZombieDawgs;34542208]Techies are op as fuck at camping the flag[/QUOTE] Actually defending as a technician is old hat. Put down turrets, motion sensor on flag, then go offense with your thumper.

Did anyone else lose their VIP status after this big overhaul update?

NOW COMES IN......... BLAPCK [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/40915430/shazbotfaggot.png[/img]

I love the new UI, and finally the Sentinel gets the Energy Rifle thingie that i've been waiting for since the trailer. It could use a small buff though.

[QUOTE=wombo;34538361]If you can learn to use the bolt launcher, it's even better. Also you can get pretty fast with the boost, then use the nitrons to get to 250+[/QUOTE] Not enough exp for the bolt right now and the recharge allows for more movement.

Okay I should get back to playing this game, are there any new classes/weapons out or is it just maps and balance?

[QUOTE=Novangel;34543132]Okay I should get back to playing this game, are there any new classes/weapons out or is it just maps and balance?[/QUOTE] They combined some of the classes so you can mix and match weapons from the two

I uninstalled the game because it didn't work and now I can't even install it... I need help... [IMG]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/49828537/misc/tribes.png[/IMG] Hi-Command isn't installed, nothing from Hirez is installed... and when I want to install it this pops up... FUCK

is there a high chance that the official site gives a key?

Just bought 800 gold now I'm finally VIP wooooo!

I love the look of the new UI, but I think it's a bit clunky.

[QUOTE=The golden;34538833]Woo. I'm 10000exp away from getting the Brute. Buying the Raider and its weapons was a mistake. I fucking SUCK at them.[/QUOTE] He is really good indoors and at low chase speeds.

So after playing this game all of last night, I'm suitably impressed. I unlocked the sentinel class, and, to be honest, I wish he had a longer scope range. Sniping is a pain in the ass when your enemies are pushing 430 sanics.

Everything is too fast and too expensive. And too explosive.

youre playing the wrong game

[QUOTE=Demeschik;34544073]Everything is too fast and too expensive. And too explosive.[/QUOTE] looks like tribes isn't for you gotta go fast

I'm not good enough at this game yet. Have to play more, or maybe the reason is that I have a shitty internet connection, and low fps.

Oh hey, I edited a gif to be more appropriate. [IMG]http://www.abload.de/img/avkya19fp0k.gif[/IMG]

As a newbie to the Tribes franchise, I have to say that I am very impressed with the game. From my understanding the game is much slower and requires much less skill than Tribes 1 and 2, but It all feels so much more competitive than most multiplayer games I'm used to.

I haven't been playing long, started about a week before the new update, save dup enough for pathfinder and has a blast. I understood that I'd have a pretty huge disadvantage being a new player when playing after the update, so I held off playing until about an hour ago, booted it up and decided to upgrade pathfinder a bunch, with the 58k XP I received from my tokens. (I have gotten very good playing Pathfinder, having been matched against people who are mostly three/four times my own level. I'm only level 7.) All the games I've played have involved my team and the enemy team being at the very least half thumper wielding techs throwing down turrets everywhere. I started attempting to grab and cap the flags. [quote=my face][img]http://i.imgur.com/rlj5E.jpg[/img][/quote]

Halo was the first thing I thought of as well, but then I realized how much more fun Tribes was and that comparison evaporated.

[QUOTE=Blanketspace;34545471]Halo was the first thing I thought of as well, but then I realized how much more fun Tribes was and that comparison evaporated.[/QUOTE] Halo was heavily inspired from the first tribes games, anyway. Just, slow. And not fun.
