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

[QUOTE=Espio;35075272]Is it just me or is the crossbow of death (bolt launcher) on pathfinder much much easier to aim than the spinfuser I literally can't hit a thing with the spinfuser, however with the bolt launcher it's airmails all day[/QUOTE] Bolt launcher is faster, making it easier to predict where to shoot.

How do you get in and out of a vehicle ? And is there any other way to spend your credits besides upgrading generator and buying vehicles ? Awesome game by the way! :D

[QUOTE=fettoolle;35076531]How do you get in and out of a vehicle ? And is there any other way to spend your credits besides upgrading generator and buying vehicles ? Awesome game by the way! :D[/QUOTE] You can spend 2000 credits on a supply drop. If you have the extra credits drop one closer to the flag stand for your heavy classes. Doombringers having that option to stay there and fill up can mean the difference between a pathfinder zooming out of there at 300 sanics or frying on the big blue bug zappers. A lot of the time the ammo packs from the faster ones will still fly off the flag stand tempting the fatties into leaving their post. Tactical strikes are also the anti-juggernaut. The extreme tunnel vision that usually accompanies heavy mortar rain is a great combination to avoid the time and effort it would take to confront one head on.

am i the only one who only uses credit on orbital strikes? unless i play beowulfichian of course i think the other call-ins & vehicles suck

[QUOTE=Clio;35076671]am i the only one who only uses credit on orbital strikes? unless i play beowulfichian of course i think the other call-ins & vehicles suck[/QUOTE] most the time i never use credits unless its supply drop or on crossfire. 90% of the time it would be useless from my position(sent-aka they run long before it lands) and the other 10% i just forget about them and then end the game with 40k :(

Game is broken since last patch, servers are losing connection after each game... Also, friend system is broken, i can't even play with my friend (unless i restart game after each round)

holy fuck guys. i delivered an airmail with a bolt launcher. how's that even possible!?

[QUOTE=Roxerg;35076777]holy fuck guys. i delivered an airmail with a bolt launcher. how's that even possible!?[/QUOTE] i did 3 last round, it isn't that hard. [editline]10th March 2012[/editline] it's also a lot easier with bolt launcher than the spinfusor as it does more damage.

Quick question, if I have looter and survivalist equipped will the 20% looter bonus for ammo drops stack on the health pickup from survivalist or just give me 20% more ammo only? 'Cause if it does that's gotta be my next exp. buy.

only more ammo

unlocked bounty hunter & loving it :dance:

Does bounty hunter affect your xp gain? As your credits equals your score, and more score gives you more xp?

Music for going fast? [video=youtube;Ejm6jn9AFA0]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ejm6jn9AFA0[/video] I do say yes. [editline]10th March 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Clio;35076671]am i the only one who only uses credit on orbital strikes? unless i play beowulfichian of course i think the other call-ins & vehicles suck[/QUOTE] I use them to upgrade the base buildings. But yes if i need to call a drop is mostly strikes.

[QUOTE=iLife_Aftermath;35076876]Does bounty hunter affect your xp gain? As your credits equals your score, and more score gives you more xp?[/QUOTE] It says it only gives moar creds so you can buy hookers. Not score.

Man I love the raider. he is such a rape machine indoors with the nade launcher [t]http://i.imgur.com/rEVCp.jpg[/t] also lost before I could launch the 3rd orbital strike :(

[QUOTE=jiggu;35077093]It says it only gives moar creds so you can buy hookers. Not score.[/QUOTE] It is my favorite primary perk. Its nice getting the extra 200 credits a kill. Or getting flag grabbers with a claymore getting you, air mail, flag defender, player kill, +200 from bounty hunter base kill, +200 for belt item kill. So you get 1000+ credits per kill against cappers on a side route on Arx Novena. It also makes gen defense as most classes so much more worth it credit wise.

So apparently there is a troll face on the sky arena. [video=youtube;EibswS33r-c]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EibswS33r-c[/video]

Goddamnit why is everything cool 42000xp, that's like, 105 matches worth

[QUOTE=blazingfly;35078104]Goddamnit why is everything cool 42000xp, that's like, 105 matches worth[/QUOTE] It has to make money somehow. Though it would be better if the more expensive stuff was merely cosmetic and actual gameplay bits were cheap.

Is it worth saving up for the the pathfinder crossbow thing?

[QUOTE=squids_eye;35078605]Is it worth saving up for the the pathfinder crossbow thing?[/QUOTE] I love the bolt launcher, I haven't used the spinfusor since. Once you learn the arc it's much more effective, travels faster too. Downside is you can't shoot base defenses from a distance waiting for the flag to come back unless you fire a few shots to get the angle right.

[QUOTE=squids_eye;35078605]Is it worth saving up for the the pathfinder crossbow thing?[/QUOTE] i find it much better than disc,

Maybe I'm just burnt out, but I'm finding it hard to care about anything. It feels like there's more and more 0v5 games, and if I try and fill one role, it'll be pointless because other roles are still unfilled.

Filling roles won't work (as you've noticed) since the whole community is 11 year olds and idiots right now. If you learn to play good and go rogue, you'll do well.

I've started getting the hang of Juggernaut, getting a few explosive sprees and such. A shame I bought Raider before, 'cause now I don't see the point of him (except for looking cool).

I guess that's what they added.
