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

The game is down? [video=youtube;1Isjgc0oX0s]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Isjgc0oX0s&feature=related[/video]

[QUOTE=SystemGS;34854855]are they updating the game?[/QUOTE] Nope, last update was sometime last year. I hear they've actually stopped development.

Sometimes i hit random "bumps" in the ground and it sends me flying straight up or to the side extremely frustrating as i cant even see them, even though i'm looking at the direction im going

New map is what happens when you take those AWESOME HILLS around the main area of the other maps and put them RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE aka crazy fast speed

server is up sukas

So I just attempted to buy Tribes Gold and I've received no confirmation email nor can I find a way to activate it. Did I just get ripped off or something?

the servers are down again, so i guess the transaction didnt go through nevermind they seem up

[QUOTE=Chirno;34853914]this is a horrible argument imo because how often are you going that fast, while also firing either of those weapons in a straight line directly infront of you?[/QUOTE] No, inheritance at the right level makes certain things easier. For instance the chaingun/smg/bullet projectile weapons currently have 0% inheritance, this makes them great at a standstill but less good for chasing. Look at my good example for a time when its important, when you are chasing someone with an automatic and are going the exact same speed, you still need to lead by a few inches depending on speed. What inheritance means is that if you are moving parallel to a person you can aim AT the person to hit them with your projectile. With 0% inheritance rapid fire weapons are better for a person retreating then chasing. Inheritance if you think about it is just a way to change the consistently of what your experience from different "positions". At 0% inheritance weapons are always the same speed relative to the ground/a person not moving. At 100% inheritance weapons speed is consistent relative to the shooter. AKA you and anyone at that speed. Inheritance is important at speed. The important thing you are forgetting is that with 0% inheritance like you want on say a spinfusor. On the new lava themed map cappers are in the 300 sanic range all the time. A spinfusor disc moves at roughly 350 sanic. Without inheritance a person going 350+ can never be hit by a spinfusor disc fired behind them, it can't catch up to them. I am effected by wrong inheritance all the time, mostly because as pathfinder my speed is always 240+ when firing, either to chase or to clear stand etc. Inheritance is important in a projectile base game. Mortar has 20% inheritance directly infront of it 0% in all other directions, so if you are skiing on say Bella Nova and fire moving toward the enemy base it isn't uncommon for your mortar to land near or even behind you. If you don't like inheritance you don't like an important aspect of Tribes game. Also to anyone who didn't know, on the launcher if you press [B]f10[/B] you can start the game even if servers are down. It takes a few tries sometimes, but the play button becomes available.

Sooo close to -10% mass on pathfinder.

[QUOTE=SystemGS;34856120]LET'S PLAY SOME TRIBES[/QUOTE] my internet keeps going out im going to go cry in a corner

the way the large ship on that map with all the ships (it's relatively flat) moves out of orbit is hilarious to me

[QUOTE=reevezy67;34856277]Sooo close to -10% mass on pathfinder.[/QUOTE] What does that do anyways?

[QUOTE=dill6869;34856363]What does that do anyways?[/QUOTE] Mass = How much explosives knock you away. Super heavy means more mass so you move less when you get hit by explosives Pathfinder -10% mass means when you Nitron boost it sends you further and faster.

It would be fucking amazing if the ships on crossfire slowly circled around the map

finished a round in 3:24 with 2 flag caps woop woop

So I combined my knowledge of skiing with jets and not just jump/jets and the giant-ass hills of temple ruins and ended up with consistent speeds of over 260 sanics. :v: Favorite map so far, BY far.
