Tribes: Ascend v2: I went slow once and it was awful
10,204 replies, posted
Since they changed the gen room in Bella omega I made it a stable of every match I play on it to get a tank and park that fucker in the gen room and just wait.
I love when I llama the flag as a juggernaut and just glide back to base at 100 sanics and cap the flag with no one chasing me
Today I accidentally called in an inventory strike on an area swarmed with Buzzards instead of Tac Strike
Still got a double kill :fuckyeah:
I really think that sentrys should have some sort of building time or slowdown on building. Having them as insta lock, insta spawning rape machines is not good for arena mode. The last three games I have been in the techs just stay next to a supply depot and keep making turrets.
Can no-one confirm that they have been able to log in during the last few hours?
EDIT: It has to be my freaking machine

I played like an hour ago, took ages to get past the patcher tho.
[QUOTE=Chirno;34884705]no, the $30 pack that comes with VIP, 3000 gold and a 30 day booster[/QUOTE]
The pre-order pack was awesome. I bought it back before the big refund of gold and XP. They turned my 3000 gold into 6000 gold. This meant that I could have used a booster for free if I had used it earlier. Also of interest, I only had 800k XP when they did the refund.
On all my classes I care about they have maxed weapons, armor and packs. Sentinel is maxed, Tech is maxed, Pathfinder is maxed, and doombringer are maxed. i haven't bought any weapons yet, but have 55k XP saved up now. Debating between Soldier Spinfusor or Pathfinder Bolt Launcher.
Infiltrator SMG > Stealth Spinfusor for my favorite thing to do as them, Jugger hunting.

Soldier Spinfusor from what I've heard is okay but I guess it depends on what you play more often
I want the Bolt Launcher though. I like Pathfinder the most

They patch Bella Omega, and as a Raider, I cry.
They patch Bella Omega, and as a Juggerfat, I laugh.
Seriously, I hate the new patch, but at least I can make the best of it. :downs:

Bella Omega's base was the only base I liked as much as Drydock's as a Raider. Arx Novena's is ok, but it's just not the same.

Arx Novena's base is horrible.
Scratch that, the WHOLE MAP is horrible.
The only Tribes game I played before ascend was Starsiege, and that was a mech game.

That was the only tribes game I didn't own :v:
I even had the PS2 port of Tribes 2.
What's a good way to farm XP without trying to kill people or use money?

Repair the shit I break so I can come back and break it again. I hate when a team doesn't maintain their defence and I'm left to harass sentinels.
Also we need more generators with pits around them. I was dicking around Drydock and 1 stealth spinfusior shot sent 3 techs to fall deaths as they repaired the gen.

I [i]hate[/i] you.
As a person.

Play long games. Your actual performance only equates to a small amount of your total xp, mainly it's the length of the game.

If Spartans had suits like the tribals did then the Covenent wouldn't stand a chance.
Imagine all their religious battle speeches about purging the humans then the Light voice saying "Declined I am the SHAZBOT"

I'm pretty sure it wouldn't matter what the spartans were wearing. The covenant can trounce anything because of their sheer quantity.

Oh man, its either there are way too many people down there, or nobody at all.
I can't even count the times we lost because either nobody but me repaired the base, or everybody only focused on repairing the base, and not attacking the flag.
Shazbot. :c

Technology to turn off friction, including drag. Weapons that shot tiny blackholes. Shield Packs. The HERC. I think Tribes universe is well setup for almost all fighting.
Superior numbers have little meaning in a choke or against an opponent with mobility as high as the Tribes. A fast army can pick its battles, unlike a slow one.

Too bad more people don't understand you need offense and defense to win CTF.
