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

[QUOTE=CMB Unit 01;34911642]Just installed this today. Didn't realise it was in open beta and got really excited when I got a beta key in PC Gamer. :downs: Aww well, time to get stuck in anyway.[/QUOTE] You got 350 gold with PC gamer <- :avatar fits:

[QUOTE=Mudkipslol;34911823]For some reason I can't equip the soldiers utility pack.[/QUOTE] Same here. I upgraded it too, would be nice if I could use it. Also, I bought soldier spinfusor with my gold. I have 2 explosive weps now, but I don't mind. I often take repair tool anyway, people rarely care to repair sensors and turrets and most techs never leave gen room.

[QUOTE=Mudkipslol;34911823]For some reason I can't equip the soldiers utility pack.[/QUOTE] Yeah, it still thinks I'm using the energy pack for some strange reason There was a thread in their forums somewhere so I suppose they will fix it :v:

man i love the pathfinder boost pack 0 to 150 sanics in 1 sec like a winner

I had no idea this was in open beta already, I would never have found out if I hadn't been stalking funions profile o;

The latest update fixed a crash to desktop that would occur when the latest PhysX drivers (the ones that fixed the CTD on UE3 games) were loaded on certain cards. [B]VGW[/B].

Game finally works again, Woohoo! If someone could add me to the players list thing, that would be grand: EU - lilBro' (Steam) - lilBro (Tribes)

[QUOTE=Funion;34913568]:v: [editline]28th February 2012[/editline] midnight i will touch you[/QUOTE] [VVA] Also, does anyone that play INF find the stealth spinfusor worth it? I see others use it and it seems pretty sweet, but holy hell 100k.

Just started playing, first TDM i didn't get any kills, but I didn't die either, second match I came second on my team who won with about 10 kills. Games pretty fun, although its tricky to move around as a juggernaut.

I already love this, that feel when you make some lucky escape and cap the flag.

that feeling when you stick all 3 ARX-shots to a pathfinder mid air it's like watching fireworks

[QUOTE=iLife_Aftermath;34914886]that feeling when you stick all 3 ARX-shots to a pathfinder mid air it's like watching fireworks[/QUOTE] Somewhat related: An enemy sniper was firing from the radar tower on Katabatic, so I went up there, stickied him, and popped him up with my spinfusor. Got the radar and the sniper :dance:

Getting a melee kill on a inattentive sentinel and VGTGing is a easy way to piss them off.

So I'm stuck using the default weapons, and I'm only at 22000 exp. First, what's the best way to grind, and should I get the pathfinder crossbow, or the soldier spinfuzor?

[QUOTE=Rents;34915051]Getting a melee kill on a inattentive sentinel and VGTGing is a easy way to piss them off.[/QUOTE] A sentinel was holding onto the enemy flag. Snuck up onto him and melee'd him. VGTG

Consider getting perks or new classes if you want to spend money. That said, bolt launcher is a better choice, it's really different to the light sf so you might like it a lot and the soldier's sf is weird unless you also buy the pistol to replace the thumper.

Juggernaut is really starting to annoy me. A base-raping mortar in addition to a good close-range weapon AND enough health to soak up multiple missiles and/or fully charged sniper shots is ridiculous, how are you supposed to kill that when he's parked on a cliff above your base?

raider thumper owns its like a fusion mortar but [U][B][I][I][I][I][I]better[/I][/I][/I][/I][/I][/B][/U]

cumon step it up

Today I was chasing the flag carrier on the ice map, I forgot what it was called. The guy ran into his gen room, where there were about 4 defenders, and tosses the flag on the ground and another guy picked it and and JUST as he was going to get away I fly in the middle of all of the defenders at 150 sanics without anyone seeing I shoot and kill the new carrier before anyone notices and I recapture the flag in the middle of all of them.

Honestly this is the best fps since halo 2. Like seriously, this is twitch FPS reborn, and it is good. The only downside is I hate playing TDM; it's frustrating being at the top of the server in score but then your team loses. Fortunately arena exists, never lose 2012.

I hate how the EXP is calculated, it should be based on skill, not how much time you spent camping around. I capped the flag once in one match and then just sat around defending our un-attacked base for the rest of the match, got around 1k exp and 6k not boosted (fucking thing gimme that damn EXP!) whereas I spent a match shelling the enemy base and getting multiple artillery strike accolades, destroying their gen multiple times and defending ours when I died and respawned, only 500exp, and around 2k not boosted.
