Tribes: Ascend v3: Would the real shazbot please stand up - Games

Every match I've played of this in the past 3 days has been completely one sided with it usually ending in 5 - 1 or 0. Every. Match. Usually I'm on the losing side. It's making me not want to play. Even if I'm on the winning side it isn't very fun to completely steamroll the other team.

i would like to join, but i will play lagged. there is no fun playing lagged. i wish they put some VGS like "help me destroy generator" "Help me destroy turrets" "help me repair this turret" etcs... and the "clear the flagstand", i need this one soo badly. also chirno you suck.

VSDC - I will defend the flag carrier VSAC - I will attack the enemy flag carrier VSFW - Don't grab the fucking flag I'm moving faster than you llama cunt why have you grabbed it fuck you god fucking dammit Other flag related stuff too Also I suppose this team should probably be an EU team, since American's generally have better internet they'd be best coming to us, providing they want to.

[QUOTE=LaughBann;35775506]Is the team supposed to be European or American? I'm from Finland, so I would have pretty bad ping games/practicing is at American server. I have decent (100mb/s) connection, but the ping would most likely hover around 150.[/QUOTE] It is hosted in the UK. I saw some people complaining about lag, but I still had a ping of about 40. I am on a 1gbs fiber cable, so I guess that may be the reason why.

How about "VGTD"? "You double Shazbot!"

[QUOTE=DrasarSalman;35775054]The VA was kind of yelling at me :smith: Still, I understand that it is just a game and that is how I chose my method of gameplay. This game doesn't really allow you to vary much if you already stick to a single class. I also know that we were too little to form an actual team, but I tend to get a bit spontaneous thoughts in-game. Also, if someone uses the vrg command, then says something like "I want vehicles" and you do not see him near the base, it is a bit easy to point a finger on someone. The problem I feel is that most of the fun on the server (especially on the map with the aqueducts) are the vehicles, but people who spec into the infiltrator usually want to do their role and destroy the gen even through it would give the enemy team no access to such luxury as vehicles. Still, the vehicles do not necessarily contain all the fun, I have grown a bit used to the tech role from all the defending and finding it a bit entertaining challenging infiltrators with new tactics as I watch their method of overcoming them. [/QUOTE] I never said I wanted vehicles :v: Anyway I'll stop saying VRG...I guess you got it covered when you're around

Hey guys, quit having fun. Chirno said no-one is allowed, probably because he's better than everyone else here and he knows how fun works.

[QUOTE=Grim Jam;35775008]Hey I've been trying to find a solution to this but my tribes refuses to launch and the repairing tools haven't helped too much - I am trying to avoid uninstalling and redownloading the whole game. When I run tribes and the actual game process starts it doesn't open properly. It looks like this [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16029082/Temp/MWSnap048.png[/img] I find this slightly too small to play the game through, so any suggestions/similar problems? I also tried fiddling with the ini(Delete) to see if it was launching the game with an absurdly small resolution, but no joy.[/QUOTE] Fix: [VGRW]

If anyone wants to hop on the FP EU server, I'm going to be hanging around for a bit. [editline]1st May 2012[/editline] Or not I keep getting D/C'd.

I want to play with more FP'ers, add BossWeedGoku FFS.

I was so pissed. my in game name is ATDoop, was I the PTH you were talking about?

I made 30000 in one week without boost or vip. 75000 doesn't look that much when you think about it. Still is quite high price for weapons.

[QUOTE=The golden;35779814]Hirez completely and utterly fails to realize that if they dropped weapon prices than more people would be inclined to purchase them. $10 for a single gun is absurd.[/QUOTE] Yes, the price should be arround $5-7 no more. Or at least you should be able to buy an small amount of gold with exp like in spiral knights, arround 100000 exp = 240 gold or even less gold.

You should be able to exchange gold for exp too, I still have 10 gold sitting on my account from the facebook promo

[QUOTE=dill6869;35779925]You should be able to exchange gold for exp too, I still have 10 gold sitting on my account from the facebook promo[/QUOTE] The energy market in SK responds rather ok with that problem, I bet in tribes it could be pretty helpful for people unable to buy gold with money. I hate classic "mean prices for items" logic in f2p games. If Valve prove the "low prices get more sales" formula in f2p and worked I wonder why nobody else got it right.

oh lawd r/tribes wants to get TB to cast comp matches that can only end badly

[QUOTE=Chirno;35780207]oh lawd r/tribes wants to get TB to cast comp matches that can only end badly[/QUOTE] Why? He's not a bad shoutcaster, at all.

[QUOTE=The golden;35780251]Hirez isn't exactly the most generous company around. What was their way of thanking the people that played during the beta? 10k exp. (15k VIP) That's less than half of the required exp to buy even the cheapest items.[/QUOTE] 10k XP for playing the game before it was released and never reporting any bugs You'd think the prize would be the fact that you played it before it was officially released, but 10k xp for nothing is pretty good too [editline]1st May 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Chirno;35780207]oh lawd r/tribes wants to get TB to cast comp matches that can only end badly[/QUOTE] I really like his shoutcasting on Starcraft 2 so I don't see why I wouldn't like it on Tribes, he isn't at all bad at what he does and even for Starcraft 2 he started learning how to be really good at the game to better understand what the players are thinking

[editline]1st May 2012[/editline] it would have been awesome to get something cooler though, like maybe a custom skinned spinfusor?

(15k VIP) That's less than half of the required exp to buy even the cheapest items.[/QUOTE] you got 10k exp for playing the game earlier than others, 90% of players likely didnt report a single problem/bug and just bitched about every change, id say you should be happy you got even a single point of exp for doing nothing [editline]1st May 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=The very best;35780264]Why? He's not a bad shoutcaster, at all.[/QUOTE] sure, his SC2 is good, but you need game knowledge to shoutcast, which he doesnt have in tribes... he would just be entertaining to listen to, but wouldnt exactly be able to give any info beyond the painfully obvious. a good example of why you need game knowledge would be Adam Sessler doing EVO 2010...
