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

[SPESS MEHRINE]

Is the LAR worth getting? I've been thinking about getting it but don't want to waste my hard earned XP.

[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;35640355]I've never seen a good DMB with the chaingun. Ever.

I can usually kill them as a pathfinder just because they can't hit me.[/QUOTE]

then you haven't played with any competent player who knows how to lead.

initially i was ass at bullet weapons because i didn't know how much i had to lead, but after a day or two of grinding 15 hours both days i can now manage to hit more than 60% of a magazine.

does anybody want to make a small little scrim team of 8-9 players and use gameshrine to setup scrims???

IGN reviewed TA.

They said the vehicles were lame/pointless and should be free like in battlefield.

IGN can suck on my dick flying at 320km/h in my Shrike.

[C4rnage]

my slayer accolades with beowulf disagree with that.
but i agree vehicles could get some improvements

they are, though. shrikes are kind of useful if you are really good with them, but grav cycles are a joke and beowulfs are just mortars with infinite ammo.

They definitely need some tweaking though. Grav Cycles are worthless, Beowulfs are explosive magnets, and are too easily harassed due to enemies being able to run circles around you while you're still trying to turn the cannon. The Shrike is okay, but I'm not a fan of it's clunky flight controls. They should make it fly like it did in T2. However, their idea that the vehicles should be free is beyond stupid.

Doombringer with Chaingun[/QUOTE]

This motherfucker is the worse thing you can run inside the generator. If he has super heavy and a good aim you will barely make it. He won't die in two shots unlike other classes and the worse is you can't run away since both are fatties with the same speed.

Your best bet is knock him back with one H spinfusor shot and then throw the rave at your feets as you run for your life. Or you can take the shotgun and try to zig zag but still the DBM will win.

Oh god play this game while listening to this, I guarantee you will go 10x the sanics.

Beowulfs are long range siege units. Extremely effective at destroying anything, including sentinels.

So Hi-Rez asked what the Blood Eagle leader would look like, and they turned up some pretty good results (not really this is the only good one):

Pretty good picture, but doesn't look very leader-y.

[ZombieDawgs]

I imagine the announcer is the guy in the ship and is the fleet commander, so I guess that's probably the high-ranking armour he wears or something.

[Idzo]

*sigh*
I guess it's time to farm for the jackal.
This will take a LOOOONG time.

[Mellowbloom]

Infiltrators are just starting to be the main thing in this game that annoys me.
90% of the time I die to one, there's absolutely nothing I could have done to prevent it, and it irritates the hell out of me.

wh40k called, they want their armour back :v:

way too flashy imo. if the leader is the announcer, I imagine him just wearing moderately customised medium armour, no helmet, naturally badass.

[editline]21st April 2012[/editline]

also he's got to have some awesome signature weapon, like dual-wielding spinfusor carbines :v:

funny how the second place used a old UT3 image

[Clio]

why do people hate on the jackal infs?

I actually prefer them over the rats with the auto pistol or whatever.
They just hide in the corner while you take the hits, then they pop out to deal the last 50 damage & snatch the ammo pack.

Whenever I try to game back into this fun game, every god damn time I end up with a bunch of newbies that think the game is defend the generator so Im left trying to defend the flag alone, which I cant.

Then I ragequit the game, wait a week, play again, then repeat.

it's funny because yesterday while playing with shadaez, some guy kept complaining about how we had a shitty defense. i tell him, "instead of crying about it why don't you do something about it, like idk, go dmb???" and then he tells me, "wtf are you some kind of noob???"

i topped scoreboard as tcn with most kills, repairs, and credits.

[Kinglah Crab]

everyone who plays DMB should go ahead and get the heavy bolt launcher

it's fucking amazing holy shit

obviously now you're not as good for shooting pathfinders out of the air, but you stand a chance indoors now - and the saber can shoot down pathfinders anyway

next up: mines

i'm gonna be the ultimately-equipped defender

[editline]20th April 2012[/editline]

also my first kill with it was literally a 360 noscope airmail

no get mines first(only after you have chaingun/armor upgrades) the heavybolt is shitty if you actually want to defend the flag and not the generator
