[QUOTE=OutOfExile2;36522645]So I tried this game out. Had one Team DM round that went pretty well. Then I tried CTF.
I grabbed their flag and it was extremely intense and I managed to get it all the way to my base...
and then I couldn't capture it and it was really embarrassing and they got it back
Help[/QUOTE]Speed=Survivability. Losing flag when you are near the flagstand is very common.
[QUOTE=Kaelazun;36522712]Speed=Survivability. Losing flag when you are near the flagstand is very common.[/QUOTE]
The issue was we didn't have our flag so I couldn't cap it. I haven't played multiplayer FPS games in such a long time that I completely forgot about that part.
[QUOTE=Bragdras;36517195]Alright, just as a headsup, Tribes have been put on Steam today, so if you get an influx of retards on your team, you know why.[/QUOTE]
I instead got a whole load of this:

He also got extended fractal :suicide:
And not to forget, more of what usually happens in our own generator room:

For people that don't know, if you have an existing install, open the launcher and in the launcher options under "Optional launch parameters" type -steam and then play the game. You'll get all the Steam features without having to download the game or move files and all that. If it doesn't work, try starting the Steam download and pausing it, then use the launch option.

[QUOTE]For those that want to transfer their game files to steam: Start the download on steam, pause it, then copy all files from:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Hi-Rez Studios\HiRezGames\tribes alpha
to
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\tribes
then resume the download to let steam verify the files.[/QUOTE]
I did this and now steam is stuck at download paused at 100%, If I tr to run it say 'the game is currently unavabile'
I just got a blue plate special with jugg taking down a pathfinder w flag.
He was going pretty fast, but not fast enough.
A few MKD boosts and juggernauts ought to be fucking scary enough.

Hey Shazpunch
Remember when you were arguing againts a team that they didnt played any comp?
And you asked them if they wanted to do a scrim?
Well they agree to do it
Both teams just gotta define a date and they will ask their capper if he can get on that day
$=€ as usual I see
Holy dicks the spinfusor can be such a bitch sometimes
I'll be literally hugging up to someone and firing a spinfusor directly into them WILL MISS AND FLY OFF WESTWARD INTO [b]FUCKING MEXICO[/b]
So it's been a while since I've played. What is the + ammo and + HP at the end of the rounds? Are these permanent boosts? It's not like I leveled up or anything either.
Hey thanks Chirno I see we're all dumber than you oh most intelligent one

Those are your weapons/armor/perks upgrading, because the classes automatically level up without using XP, so you don't need to do it manually anymore. They are all the same exact upgrades as before though.
I have spent 30 bucks on tribes today
By the way, if you're going to play it on Steam and you already have it installed with Hi-Rez software, you can copy the files to the Steam folder for Tribes.
Awesome! I hope this inflates the player count a good deal after the Pyro update calms down.

Or just use -steam is the launchers launch parameters...

Woah
My game just updated and now my framerate is FUCKED. While I was running 60fps on the highest possible settings at 1920x1080, and now I can barely manage 5fps.
I'm using a GTX590, if it matters.

Nevermind apparently windows update is a fucking asshole and doesn't acknowledge when it's TURNED OFF.
The game just keeps telling me my login is incorrect, when I know for a fact it isn't because I can log into the website just fine.
So uh, are they going to do anything at all with the jackal?
Simple solution would make it expend energy when fired, making a stealth vs power choice.

it should require a short charge-up to detonate, so that there is a moment when the inf's cloak is pulsed before they go off and it requires more skill. it's frankly retarded at the moment how they can detonate while still fully cloaked
[editline]28th June 2012[/editline]
oh and remove airblasts and make the damn things actually possible to see when someone loads up a point with them

i honestly can't believe after all this time hirez is apparently oblivious to these seriously broken weapons

I think the rate of fire should be slowed.
I feel physical pain when someone holding the enemy flag attempts to retrieve their own flag when it's not close to the flag stand, while his entire team is trying to retrieve it for him so he can cap it before another douchelord pathfinder putts his way over the Mexican border and straight into Manhattan.
Hah, I just got on the scoreboard with the match completed accolade. Guess I finished that round real good.

I wish Norwegian Kroner were a currency on steam, the games would be hilariously cheap.
