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

Well, just had one of my best e-grabs ever that won us the game (well at least ended it a victory without overtime).
Spawn in, enemy has the flag. Use all three nitrons building up speed to try and catch him. I ended up coming in from the same route he was, except higher. Let me put it into perspective of how close he was to capping it in when I grabbed it. Had I been [u]any[/u] slower, he would have been goomba stomped.

Is gooma stomping actually a thing? This seems like a new tactic to use on HOFs on crossfire.

I currently hit them once with the grenade launcher to knock them off and they get annoyed.

you used to be able to do 1 damage to players if you landed on them but they removed it because sometimes it would cause you(and the person you landed on occasionally) to die instantly or one of you to be flung at 3000+ sanics across the map(only to die instantly on impact with a wall)

It's amazing to play though
When people say my name ingame I get scared.
[QUOTE=Gum;34965146]That reminds me of this one time when I flew high above the enemy flag stand, drawing fire to myself when a wild Pathfinder appears and grabs the flag.
The soldire ruse was DISTACTION!.... The Patfinder HASS THE FLAG!

This is me every day of my life when I am not gen breaking or defending, just being a huge pain in the ass. No doubt they are surprised when I go right past the flag dropping nades errwhere instead of grabbing it.

standing on a hill spamming flag stand or rushing gen and spamming mortars in halls is fun? fun for some i guess seems boring as hell though
Is it me or does it seem like they increased xp gain? Haven't played in a while so they might have.

That's how people play juggernaut? I fly around @ 140 eyeballing people fighting and join in using the spinfusor close-ish, and if someone runs away I use mortar to artillery them.
If I get low on health I go ski away from people for a few seconds to heal.
(I dont play much CTF)

You're supposed to be raping the enemy generator

Actually killed someone by landing on them early in the beta. But never happened again.

you touched me inappropriately o';
[QUOTE=dill6869;34966409]You're supposed to be raping the enemy generator[/QUOTE]
they make better flag clearers brutes already rape gens
I'd never played heavy before, so I got a juggernaut and started mortar spamming the flag. I ended up with 35,000 points, because every time i'd get enough for an orbital strike (which doesn't take long as a jug), it would nearly get me enough points back for another. :v:
I think i'll stick with pathfinder though, its far more fun, and probably far more helpful to my team.
I finally got to play this game, it's pretty fun. I got my one and only flag capture and came top of my team in my 4th or 5th match and felt so proud. Then I started sucking again and lost the next load.
Ok, here I go...unlocking raider with my hard-earned 18k xp. This better be good.
if you dont have good aim it wont be
I have mediocre aim
how do I kill everybody as raider
Is it just me or does this game keep giving me the wrong XP totals. It said I totaled around 1000 xp even though I only got like 650.

quickly go to the enemy base, use your crappy aim to spread the destruction everywhere when you left click

it tells you how much you would have gotten with vip and a booster
Oh man, I atmost cap the flag as juggerbro.
A soldier and I attack the base at the same time, I blow up the defence and he got the flag but he blow up with his own granade and the flag fall just in front of me. The nthe whole bunch of dirty sandrakers where in my tail and I blow them up with a one granade and one pipe, 4 kill in one shot and when I was about the cap I blow myself up by accident.
At least I die in my team base like 10 feets from the flag and the tech finish the cap.

Going out with a boom. How is that not brave?

Oh and I just got the super heavy perk. Its fun to see people run into me and explode.
