[Rolond]

[QUOTE=Fusnax;35403124]If that leaked patch notes is real
Then I will be getting 18k xp back since i bought quick draw
That means i will have 42k xp or more and i will be able to buy any weapon of 42k xp
What weapon should i buy?[/QUOTE]

The patch is fake, get earning.

[QUOTE=snarglemuffin;35402278]To do that I abused the glitch where you can melee your own turrets, so I went to a corner of the map as tech and put down a turret, repaired it, then damaged it. For 25 fucking minutes. Somebody should make a bot to do that for me :v:[/QUOTE]

I got 3000 today for doing that as Brute the whole match :v:

[editline]2nd April 2012[/editline]

Shotgunning down my own generator.

Damn, I'll have to try that.

you know the xp grind in this game is bad when you start to sabotage your own gen for xp

I love when people say my HoF is shit even though they only got one cap from it, when I was the only one defending the flag too, and I came ontop of both scoreboards.

The fun thing is they got really piss off at the star but then 5 tech where farming points with me down there :v:

Plus suddenly a Jackal infilt appears and he didn't kill me, instead he help me out to blow down my own generator and I help him to get kills.

[Beardy]

why bother doing the exploit on your own generator? why not just go tech and going to the corner of the map and then doing it to your own turret?

[QUOTE=BeardyDuck;35404039]why bother doing the exploit on your own generator? why not just go tech and going to the corner of the map and then doing it to your own turret?[/QUOTE]

Because I wasn't looking for repairs.

I dont have tech plus if you blow down the generator you get a free gene-hater and dont tell me five tech can bring a MK 1 back online in the time you say shazbot.

I got "The Slayer" for defending the flag in Temple Ruins as a Doombringer :v:
God damn are those mines effective, especially in that map. Basically I set them up like this:

[IMG]http://puu.sh/nDJQ[/IMG]

red = mines
green = flag
blue = shield

This forces pathfinders to generally hit two mines, resulting in their death. More skilled pathfinders will usually hit at least one, but then their health is pretty raped, and your big sodding machinegun can easily stop them.
Only problem is those who realize "Wait, maybe I should clear the mines with my gun instead of my body!", but they're usually pathfinders and your machinegun kills them anyways. :v:

Also, put up shields. The setup [B]will[/B] work without them, but as long as the generator is up they'll provide extra danger for the tiny pathfinders.
The configuration of the shields isn't all that important from my experience, but I prefer the layout in the illustration above.
If they come from the right without thinking, they'll be instantly killed by the shield/mine combo.

Man, raiders really need to help out on clearing the stand instead of going straight to the gen room. With the new DMB stuff it's not enough to take the gen out anymore.

[NanoSquid]

I want a city themed map with sloped streets like San Francisco. I really want to see how the skiing gameplay would change with more geometric levels.

I never saw a single raider, so yeah :v

So like the city in Arx Novena?

People being useless like that pisses me off. I've watched raiders/brutes zip gaily into the gen room on Arx/Katabatic while turrets/shields/etc sit UNDEFENDED on the stand.

IT ONLY TAKES 1 DISC/GRENADE TO ALLOW FOR A CAP YOU SHAZBOTS

[QUOTE=ZombieDawgs;35404736]So like the city in Arx Novena?
[/QUOTE]

Maybe a gigant space station out in the open?
I dont know about the places in the Tribes saga so please some help me.

[Paul-Simon]

Also, my ping in that match was anywhere in between 120 to 2500 :v:

the router was freaking the fuck out at points

[ZombieDawgs]

I went on the tribes forum and there was a [B]female[/B] making some [url=http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2012/036/5/f/tribes_female_juggernaut_by_destructorv1-d4oqvvr.jpg]mediocre art[/url] getting loads of comments and shit on a thread.

And then I left.

Yes, just like that but the whole map. Or at least many more buildings

"The next patch implements the ability to see (and block, if desired) your "FOLLOWERS", which is the list of people that have friended you.

There are a number of other updates to the friend and social systems in the next patch"

I want female skins but then I think for a second
"Why? they will probably slap some unrealistic tits and a ponytail to the default character models"
Still, I don't know if that would be worse than a guy running with their arms unprotected while everyone else has a full body futuristic armor

I try, but either, I end up running away from a doom bringer or a group of thumpernicians.
And sicne I have been playing agaisnt teams with +3 thumpernicians I usually destroy their turrets/sensors to distract them and then go for the flagstand

[ZombieDawgs]

If you look at Global Agenda characters Hi-Rez seem to know what they're doing.

Then again looking at the Diamond Sword's announcer I wouldn't know.

[Reds]

The armor for all of the classes has enough bulk to be completely gender neutral, and I've always imagined that some of the troops are female under the armor.

But,we all know that the only way to show gender is to make the female armor thin enough to be taken down by one light spinfuzor shot and have huge breasts on it, right?

[DireWolf]

Just maxed out armour for pathfinder. Now I can go even faster, faster.

I don't ask for much. Just shit some arx bombs onto the stand and pop off a VAF. Thanks <3

Also female characters are totally doable, just add female voice lines for VGS and put a toggle in the options menu. Bam, female characters.

[=DarkStar=]

[QUOTE=The golden;35405871]Apart from the light, you could probably stick a female in the medium and heavy armor without even telling the difference.

Of course, they would probably add fake tits to the chest-plate anyway, even though no armor in existence actually needs those.[/QUOTE]

I don't know you guys but the sandraker infiltrator armor looks kind of femenine :v:

Also female skins would be very off. It would be pretty odd to hear a shazbot with femenine tone.

I always drop a fractal in the flagstand before getting inside the gene room. No one is idiot enough to stand in the rave.

[Beardy]

i find it weird that some of the death sounds sound like a female voice.

shazbot wouldn't sound right in a female voice.

Sounds sexy actually...
