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

[QUOTE=Raijin;35793743]Hey I wanna join the FP team as a backup Tech. Usually when I play with a bunch of artards on the team, I still manage to defend/upgrade base assets unless I get a jackal scrub camping them.[/QUOTE] [url]https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ArLLDLcWc32xdGpZdmM0a0ZfRW83LVJTRVV1TFNCSXc#gid=0[/url] Fill in your shit there.

Added mine as well, because you didn't have enough pathfinders :v: Though I just use it because it's my shrike pilot class. I'll be defending our flag. There should be a column for location.

We have too many people on team one as well. Easiest way to solve this problem is to actually organize a time this week for people to turn and play together. That way people who turn up get to be in a team (special exceptions for people who can't come at that time) and those who signed up but don't care don't. Also allows us too see who works well together and arrange teams around teamwork.

The only thing I can offer as PTH since there are so many is that I fancy myself a pretty good chaser if nothing else.

[QUOTE=RIPBILLYMAYS;35789271]SON OF A BITCH wolfyFTW FUCKING SPAMMED MIRVS IN ALL OF MY GAMES AND I WAS FUCKED FOR 5 HOURS BECAUSE OF HIM DIE [editline]1st May 2012[/editline] fuck and Euthanatos? I was playing against these guys earlier.[/QUOTE] WolfyFTW actually follows me :v:

I added myself to team 2, since you already have shitload of pathfinders, most probably better than me.

Why does this game not have auto-assign/auto balance teams yet? It's like the teams are stacked every other match.

it does, but that only works on the amount of people in a team [editline]2nd May 2012[/editline] also autoassign can be forced in server settings, dunno any servers which do though

yesterday two juggers were camping on our gen room on raindance, and one of them taunted us "hey why don't you come over here and fix your generator" went down there twice as a raider and got killed, I knew what I had to do PARTY HARD

Need a space cleared? Call the rave squad.

I've cleared up the google docs, If you're "backup" or have time constraints because of exams you're priority #2, but still able to be on Team 1. We technically don't have team one or team two, just whoever is available for now.

So I got my tablet out again and got busy. [URL="http://i47.tinypic.com/2u5tdtg.png"]Warning, contains shazbot and pony. Not for the manly hearted.[/URL]

[QUOTE=The golden;35798480]So I'm playing as a 3/4 upgraded pathfinder with fully upgraded thrust pack. Even the biggest of hills aren't even a problem for me any more. I can sail around the map 150+ easily. Even more if I use various boosting techniques. Encounter a heavy and start to duel with him. He gets close to dieing and flees. He starts skiing backwards (so he can fire at me) down a small hill and backward skii/jet's up one of the biggest hills in raindance. Not only is he not slowed down at alll, he actually manages to completely escape me (while going backwards). I have nitrons, my spinfuser, and my thrust pack at my disposal and yet a juggernaut with his limited jetpack and weight (and no energy pack) can outpace me. What the fuck. I assumed that the biggest downside to playing as a heavy was the lack of speed and jetpack. Clearly I assumed incorrectly.[/QUOTE] he is heavy he goes down fast like a rock do not underestimate the juggerfats

Good juggernaut or bad pathfinder.

With your nitrons and the fuckton of energy you get by not using the thrust pack you can easily build up speed and tackle hills. Doubly so with the potential energy perk. There's also a bunch of quirks in the jetpack logic, like holding the opposite direction's movement key will make you go faster, and these apply even more to the heavy classes.

[QUOTE=The golden;35798603]I don't use my thrust pack when chasing unless I hit a tree or something and came to a dead stop.[/QUOTE] That's nice. I mean you have it equipped instead of the far more useful energy pack.

If you either, spin or alternate wa or sd, you jet faster. I think it has to do with some quirks in the math they use to limit its speed. [QUOTE=Catdaemon;35798624]That's nice. I mean you have it equipped instead of the far more useful energy pack.[/QUOTE] Energy pack makes you regen 20% faster, you get 14 energy/sec as a light. 16.8 energy/sec with energy pack. There aren't many routes that need the extra energy. The versatility of the jump pack is just awesome when dueling.

I think thrust packs are more useful for chasing since you can go from 0 to 130 with a click of a button

I can reach 290 sanics as Brute and I see Doombringers at 300 sanics with heavy crossbows and Ultra capacitor.

[QUOTE=The golden;35798576]He went down a small hill and up a big hill. It doesn't work that way.[/QUOTE] Makes about as much sense as 50% projectile inhertance. The laws of physics only [I]kind of[/I] apply in Tribes Ascend.

Oh my god I just got this IT'S AWESOME!

I have a question, do skins count towards the percentage of a class because I want to get the new raider smg but if I need the skins to have a class mastered then i'll just wait for another update and spend my xp on that.
