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

I feel the need the need FOR SPEED [editline]17th February 2012[/editline] anyone up for a game?

Tribes Ascend v. One guy bitching about paying to unlock sidegrades while the rest of the thread is okay with it (yes I realize the Thumper is a direct upgrade shut the fuck up)

[QUOTE=The golden;34736992]And let's not forget how successful APB was. :v:[/QUOTE] Ok you got me, but for the record I'm talking APB:reloaded and when I played it I found out that LOTS of people buy that shit :v: [editline]edit[/editline] [QUOTE=Altin;34737035]Tribes Ascend v. One guy bitching about paying to unlock sidegrades while the rest of the thread is okay with it (yes I realize the Thumper is a direct upgrade shut the fuck up)[/QUOTE] he's talking about the [I]price[/I] geez don't you listen?

I feel special having what people call "OP" for once.

Played the first game, it was awesome. Tried to preorder, sites broken

[QUOTE=Swebonny;34736394]You need to average 10k a day with the 10 day booster, with a guaranteed 2400 xp due to the first win bonus, you'd have to make 7.6k xp per day. That'd take me like 10 games per day.[/QUOTE] getting 4-5k with VIP and boost easily, it doesn't that THAT long, if anything they should make all the classes free and keep the guns the same price.

fuck engineers are fucking awesome just had 30k points in a game [editline]17th February 2012[/editline] i know everyone's bitching about the thumper, but i'm kind of growing fond of the SMG once you can land shots consistently it's ridiculous. although the thumper would probably be better. >>

i just don't see why the TCN gets a thumper

[QUOTE=Niklas;34737663]i just don't see why the TCN gets a thumper[/QUOTE] infiltrators and no decent secondary weapons. thumper + motion sensor = might as well play something else, infiltrator is useless now

[QUOTE=The golden;34737690]It kinda always was. :v:[/QUOTE] infiltrator + jugg = fuck you, fuck your generator, fuck your mom, fuck your turrets, and fuck your couch that combo was infuriating me all night. >> Yet I still managed to win 75% of the time, and I don't have a thumper. :v:

I just bought raider. 2 infiltrators, another raider, and a brute were in our gen room. I cleared them all out with an emp and 2 clips of arx buster.

[QUOTE=The golden;34737747]Prior to the update, the infiltrator was quite underpowered and saw little actual use. Being a defending player, I personally saw little of them or problems caused by them. (Oh god I hope Krail doesn't read this)[/QUOTE] they were smart about it though on arx nocturna or whatever the hell that map's called, I was defending the Sandraker spawn. The jugg would stay on the high ground and just pump grenades down through the gen room, and then the inf had a stealth spinfusor and would just hide until someone tried to initiate on the jugg and then just wreck their shit. it's very very difficult to get them out of the room once they destroy your stuff, but it's surprisingly easy to keep them out once you've got stuff in there.

Did I miss something, or why do I have 60 000XP, when I couldn't afford anything the last time I played?

[QUOTE=reevezy67;34737326]Played the first game, it was awesome. Tried to preorder, sites broken[/QUOTE] my friend has the same problem.

Saw a sentinel with some 67k points in one match the other day.. :v: I hate snipers.

I'm getting mixed messages what status is this game in and how much does it cost?

[QUOTE=reevezy67;34738238]I'm getting mixed messages what status is this game in and how much does it cost?[/QUOTE] It costs a like on their bookface. Beta atm.

[QUOTE=reevezy67;34738238]I'm getting mixed messages what status is this game in and how much does it cost?[/QUOTE] Google. It's beta and it is and will be F2P.

[QUOTE=Zinayzen;34737818]on arx nocturna[/QUOTE] Bella Omega is the worst. A single tech has a hard time solo defending it with 2 turrets + smg since the sheer number of rave grenades and mirvs down that ramp.

Oh f2p.. I look forward to the hackers.

TCN is more versatile with the SMG, you can defend the flag. Thumper pretty much constrains you to the gen room, or if you're decent, the midfield. Although thumper is a bit of a "Fuck You" to INF, just have to pop a nade in all the corners and Gen's clear. I reckon it's going to stay, though.

Isn't sentinel the only hack-able class though? A wallhack would be useless, and aimbot with projectile weapons seems retarded

I think I read a load screen tip mentioning vote-kicking, but that may have been another game.

[QUOTE=iLife_Aftermath;34738542]Isn't sentinel the only hack-able class though? A wallhack would be useless, and aimbot with projectile weapons seems retarded[/QUOTE] I allready have seen someone hack with soldier aussault rifle and it was really strong.

[QUOTE=iLife_Aftermath;34738542]Isn't sentinel the only hack-able class though? A wallhack would be useless, and aimbot with projectile weapons seems retarded[/QUOTE] I think it's possible if not fairly easy to make the projectiles work. I remember using this halo CE aimbot years ago that corrected for the sniper's travel time :v:

My favorite classes right now are the pathfinder and the raider. Both are awesome. Sentinel with his new rifle is cool too.

[QUOTE=Aedus;34729551]I made a little montage of me playing Sentinel over 5 or 6 rounds. I won't post the video on the page so it's not shoved down your throat, but I'll link it instead so if you wish to click, you can: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMrksO784Y0[/url] First ever montage I've made so I know it's probably pretty poor by normal standards, but any feedback regardless?[/QUOTE] Great choice of music and wow you're real good at sentinel
