ought to be fun with the increased disc size, shoot one at the feet, finish with a blue plate
Great patch notes, I want to see it in action, but it seems promising.
.. It's a shame there's still ( and probably never will) no 3rd person camera fix..

Done.
[quote]Reduced knockback from Pathfinder’s Impact Nitron and Compact Nitron’s by 23% to be more in line with the amount of damage being done, and to favor using the increased values on spinfusors
and other projectile weapons.[/quote]
aww
[QUOTE=JoonazL;36822971]aww[/QUOTE]
There's a lot of debate over this completely destroying the lightweight perk, in my opinion they should make L/W negate the effects of the patch to the nitrons.
[QUOTE=JoonazL;36822971]aww[/QUOTE]
erm... doesn't this mean they haven't changed? since self damage jumping in general was increased 20% it just brings everything more in-line
Meanwhile on pub servers:

I'm serious, it was like this for a good few minutes.

Soooo will the new voice packs be available with exp?
If not that would be a bummer.

Does this happen often in Tribes
Wait a minute will we be able to have a female voice pack on the Griever?
Is this some kind of Tranny patch?

Ohhh... There was a server shut down a couple hours ago. Maybe they updated their server queue.

Yep

They've got it pretty much spot on, that was rather modest of them to say.
[quote]The Safefall perk now starts at 50% falling and splat damage reduction, and is upgraded to immunity from all falling and splat damage. In addition, its final unlock has been increased from 80% vehicle run over damage reduction to immunity from vehicle run over damage.
[/quote]
Wow, I might actually use safe fall over reach now. Some of the buffs to other perks also sound really good.
Splat damage? Does it protect you from super-heavy?

Whoa whoa whoa, does this mean shrikes are near useless?
[QUOTE=Chirno;36825635]Whoa whoa whoa, does this mean shrikes are near useless?[/QUOTE]
Not completely, you can still use the guns. But shrike chasing will be much more difficult now.
[QUOTE=DrasarSalman;36825301]Splat damage? Does it protect you from super-heavy?[/QUOTE]
That would be nice, actually. I did not even consider that.
[QUOTE=Chirno;36825635]Whoa whoa whoa, does this mean shrikes are near useless?[/QUOTE]
If everyone starts using safefall then sure, but they're probably not going to
I'm actually fine if someone can be near immune to my shrike roadkills, but I'd be grateful if there was some kind of visual indicative of that, so that I don't bump into him 2 times without hearing any noise or damage and going "welp I guess I missed *180degree retry*".
This patch seems better and better everytime I read through it.
Gladiator buffs since most of the recent patches, yet I see hardly anyone succeed with it.
[QUOTE=Unib5;36827292]Gladiator buffs since most of the recent patches, yet I see hardly anyone succeed with it.[/QUOTE]
It's still rendered useless because its advantage was precise shots, which does less damage than the devastator's.
The "AREA DENIAL" of this weapon is a piece of crap, due to the slow reloading and projectile speed, AND detonation time.
Wait a second, concerning the new safefall mechanics, will it render superheavy useless? Immunity from fall and splat damage..
I never really understood this title.
Shazbot means shit, right?
have they given any info about the new voices?
like will they be the same for all armor classes or does 1 voice pack include 3 different ones?
[QUOTE=lapsus_;36828365]Wait a second, concerning the new safefall mechanics, will it render superheavy useless? Immunity from fall and splat damage..[/QUOTE]
Super heavy still stops you getting knocked about as much by explosive damage, and thus allows you to stand on the flag more easily.
[QUOTE=Aedus;36831030]Super heavy still stops you getting knocked about as much by explosive damage, and thus allows you to stand on the flag more easily.[/QUOTE]
He means that safefall may potentially negate the normal effects of Super Heavy, which allows you to kill enemies rapidly accelerating into you.

I doubt anyone is going to sacrifice their good perks for something that is sometimes useful.
