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

[QUOTE=LuaChobo;34674854]can i just draw "shazbot" over and over again[/QUOTE] Well we would need the same drawn blood eagle pathfinder face on everything with names on top. But if you draw me I wanna be a Juggernaut Diamond Sword.

[QUOTE=LuaChobo;34674854] devlog[/QUOTE] Finally some balance!

[QUOTE=Ogopogo;34670761]There is plenty of people who perfer the phase rifle over the BTX1. Generally they will tell you that it is a much harder weapon to use, but more effectively if you use it correctly. If you never miss, you will do better with it than the BTX1.[/QUOTE] No, if you never miss the BTX is better. It is impossible to completely kill a heavy with the phase rifle. I routinely land 4-5 fully charged shots on inbound heavies. BTX has better sustained DPS, but both suck in terms of DPS compared to other guns. Nova Blaster is the best weapon in the game statistically if you can hit with it. Super Heavy Sentinel, most fun way to troll gener-haters. Also to anyone having trouble sniping, you need to use not just your mouse to aim, move as well, it makes shots far easier to manage. Yeah, aim like you would on a console. Get near general direction of the person, just a bit off usually, and move to align it. At far distances its easier to move your body 3 feet to the side to hit someone then to change your aim 1-2 pixels.

[QUOTE=krail9;34674500]The difference is that tf2's classes are very specific and stick to their determined role while classes in tribes aren't distinguished as much and can interchange roles.[/QUOTE] every class in tf2 has the ability to play every role

[QUOTE=dill6869;34675021]Sandraker[/QUOTE] I just think the Diamond Swords are a more peaceful tribe, who really didn't want to get in a fight but when shit got real they got real with it. Plus it's nice being told what to do by a woman. Naughty.

I have absolutely no regrets on buying the Technician class. Except that I don't really have much to spend the lodsa credits I earn on, so I just use Tactical Strikes on Juggernauts that are trying to take out my base turrets from 500 Meters away

Is there any class with some sort of minigun class? That was my favorite type of class in tribes: aerial assault. And is it worth it? Also some fitting music. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IoPeNC4k_0[/media]

I always play as a butcher in capture the flag and as a sandraker in deathmatch. And I never play Rabbit.

Does anyone else get these crash to menus? I can't find it on any searches on google.

[QUOTE=The golden;34675635]Some days I will crash to menu after every round and will be unable to join the line until I restart my game. Some days it's totally fine.[/QUOTE] As do I, it gets really annoying sometimes.

I MUST PRACTICE MORE [editline]13th February 2012[/editline] fuck it, i'm going to ski as a juggernaut or whatever

When I'm a Jugger for some reason I've gotten extremely good at getting followed by those [u][b][i] DIRTY PATHFINDING BUTCHERS[/i][/b][/u] and leading them into a tunnel or something then shooting a fusion mortar at my feet and getting a kill or two

[QUOTE=Zinayzen;34675684]I MUST PRACTICE MORE [editline]13th February 2012[/editline] fuck it, i'm going to ski as a juggernaut or whatever[/QUOTE] The problem with juggernauts is that it's really easy to ski fast from a spawn point (as most of them are well placed, near slopes and often at a much higher point than the rest of the map), but because you are basically a tank or rollerskates it's hard to maneuver and to keep momentum because their energy is so god damn limited and they take so god damn long to get some altitude with their jetpack. You should try using the green spinfusor's improved range to shoot a disk and thrust yourself forward a bit more, but you'd have to aim precisely or else you will just fuck up your health bar for not so much speed gained.

Also I need Diamond Sword Juggernaut mask templates. I must revise my avatar.

okay okay so pathfinders are awesome but the shotgun is lacking does anyone else get a shotgun that's better [editline]13th February 2012[/editline] although it's lacking because i have lag i can fix that though i think

Oh my god this game is just goddamn amazing The topic title is just 100% spot on though, going slow in this game just outright sucks. Though it's easy to hit those who aren't familiar with skiing. I managed to get the flag about 4/5 times yesterday as a Pathfinder, one match as Sandraker and the other as Diamond Sword. I'm not too great with the shotgun though, it feels as if the damage falloff is a bit too extreme. It isn't really useful (for me at least) with all the crazily fast shit going on all the time.

Greak pick off weapon, barely have to aim.

[QUOTE=Funion;34669200]jiggu op nerf[/QUOTE] Raider r op nerf. Seriously Snipers doesn't deal even 1/10th of the damage raiders can do, and it's fucknut harder to actually deal damage as the sniper. I got the phase rifle and it was a fucking letdown, 70 energy PER shot for 510 damage, still uses normal ammo too.

They restricted classes in training mode to just the classes you own/ That sucks, I wanted to try brute out.

sick of that techs thumper.

What's the url of the dev blog if they have any?

I love this game Also, I thought those medal things (like for capping the flag) give you EXP? I dont get EXP from them

They give you credits to upgrade stuff or call in things.

Stealthan around enemy base, all their shit is destroyed, just keeping everything clear for our cappers. Standard infiltrator hit and run tactics. A heavy on their team e-grabs and manages to make it back to our base at almost no health, runs into their gen room alone, I follow. Hoping he's low enough, I move in for the slash, but right before I stab that fool he drops the flag to regen. I just walk into it, stick a sticky to his face, VGTA, and walk out of their exploding gen room in slow mo.

I swear every round ends with Shazbot! Shazbot! Shazbot!

[QUOTE=Recurracy;34676686]I swear every round ends with Shazbot! Shazbot! Shazbot![/QUOTE] The way it should.
