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

needs a flag

[QUOTE=Trooper-guy1;34666612]Techs feel so useless. Shitty SMGs and light turrets that every other class can destroy with ease. Makes gen defense a total waste of time.[/QUOTE] SMG is pretty good in close quarters and the tech grenade is fucking awesome

[QUOTE=latin_geek;34666739]SMG is pretty good in close quarters and the tech grenade is fucking awesome[/QUOTE] The way I play tech is placing turrets in the middle of the battlefield, so enemies spend time and ammo killing them and I get a few credits along with that, especially when put behind hills. Then I go myself dropping inventory stations and shit everywhere for more turrets, and destroy the enemy generator. Offensive TCN rocks.

Oh man, I just remembered something: 1:05 [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lE9JPUeSwdY[/media]

I forgot my password for my account, but I remembered my username. I entered my username to reset my passwords, it says that it sent the reset password to my email. I check my email and the new password isn't there. Any ideas? I really don't want to make a new account because I'd have to use another key and I don't have a spare that I remember.

Great, had a great game with 10+ kills and not many deaths, a shitload of points and all and when "your team won" comes up, i get sent to the main menu. Fuck.

facepunch isnt going fast

[QUOTE=iLife_Aftermath;34667980]facepunch isnt going fast[/QUOTE] Steam is down too.

[QUOTE=Skyward;34658589]I seem to be doing worse and worse at this game...[/QUOTE] You're probably just getting put in games with better players. When I first started I was getting all of our team's flag captures, because I had played Tribes 2 quite a lot, and was playing with new players. Now it's putting me in games with more experienced players, so I'm not doing as well.

Don't you love it when you have the enemy flag and are milimeters away from yours, and a sentinel or whatever comes out of nowhere and blows your fucking ass?

Doombringer ultimate defense strategy: Stand on highest point of your base Whip out your saber launcher Watch as all the pathfinders immediately ground and slow down to about 50 kph If anyone thinks "ololo im to fast for dis roket" just fire and watch them get killed instantly. Whenever anyone sees that "Missile attempting to target you" message they stop and look around which makes them lose so much speed that you can just watch as a base turret blows them up.

You know, during certain days of the year, religious people also gotta go fast.

Pre-ordered, spent gold on stupid things like sentinel class/energy rifle, feel bad now, got like 1500 left. Don't own Doombringer, thoughts on what to buy with my leftover?

Fucking doombringers.

jiggu op nerf

Alright getting into this. Nailing somebody with the mortar is really satisfying.

bought the sentiel class, and im loving it only thing is the main sniper gun thingy needs to do CONSIDERABLY more damage than it does right now, fully charged it does only 500 so hirez should either bump up the damage, make charging up faster or my fav make the charge stay until you unscope so you dont have to wait for recharge after every shot also nova blaster is an amazing gun

Chaingun is good, but when you're a slow-moving heavy and everyone has explosives, it's hard to do good with the chaingun except if people are just staring at you without moving. As for Saber Launcher, the lock on is way too long to lock on to any pathfinder, any even [i]okay[/i] pathfinder will never be in the air for longer than 3 seconds which defeats the purpose and vehicles are not used enough for the saber launcher to be good. As a Doombringer I find myself just being a moving target that can't actually achieve much, I don't know if the gun has damage drop-off, I was told all the times I did 300-900 damage (Which was all the time by the way) was because they only got hit by the splash damage. Not to mention the fact that the rocket can be fucking shot down, so if the pathfinder sees your rocket coming from miles away, he can just get the shotgun out, shoot at it and waste your ammo.

The Phase Rifle sounds good though, full damage at all time, unzoomed or zoomed, I find the sniper much easier to shoot unzoomed but I do 10 damage with the first sniper when I shoot people unzoomed. When you get used to the sniper, it's much easier to shoot people but you still do mediocre damage and usually can't get anything more than 1 shot off on a guy unless he's terrible so I'm all up for a small damage boost, maybe I'd play mine a bit more. I've also experienced the ridiculous damage drop off, snipers are made to shoot long range, why does it have such a stupid shitty damage drop-off, my average damage is like 300 because of it, not to mention the shitty scope, it looks like it's only something like 1.5x-3x.

The fall-off is meant to discourage you from shooting long range, and even then it's pretty tame since 300 is still massive for a fucking hitscan. I play sentinel a lot and it's fine where it is, it's for medium range and the damage is almost perfect. You act like charging is some enormous chore even though it's actually really quick.

[QUOTE=Eltro102;34669562] uh how bout yes[/QUOTE] One of the best classes in the game doesn't need a buff, sry. Phase rifle can be tweaked though so it's not outright worse than the BTX1
