[QUOTE=ZombieDawgs;35887311][thumb]http://i.imgur.com/alNKQ.jpg[/thumb][/QUOTE] Should be a tech.
I'm glad that they added accolades for upgrading turrets. And I think that hot aor replacing air mail is really silly [QUOTE=Idzo;35887789]I just got the jackal. I regret nothin'. It's great! Now i want my prism mines.... MOAR FARMIN'![/QUOTE] Yeah. The jackal is fun. Except for your enemies (I'm sorr y techs, I'm a terrible person)
[QUOTE=DrasarSalman;35887825]Should be a tech.[/QUOTE] Couldn't make the same size as original because i couldn't find a big image of the Techs armor, i just went to the game and took a screenshot. [img]http://i.imgur.com/dI0UL.png[/img]
I took an infiltrator. Now I am always the first in the table, always have 9k credits. Blow generators all da time.

Wow I got a 75% discount! ...on prism mines :I
[QUOTE=iLife_Aftermath;35888465]Wow I got a 75% discount! ...on prism mines :I[/QUOTE] 80% discount on the Falcon..... The deal of the day is self aware of what I hate the most :suicide:
I have whole 30 gold left, now I need a damn big discount. Today I was calling an air strike on the flagstand when a Sandraker shot me in the back with spinfusor so I got pushed into some rock, calling the strike on our heads. We used voice commands in pretty much the same time, except mine was VGW and his VGS, I laughed pretty hard.
Look Tribes, I didn't buy the explosive nitron the first time you offered it in a sale... yesterday. I haven't changed my mind.
70% off prism mines. Give me shit for the PTH ffs
[QUOTE=iLife_Aftermath;35888465]Wow I got a 75% discount! ...on prism mines :I[/QUOTE] Beats my 35% discount on them yesterday, and my 25% discount on the assassin skin today.
Did the game just break for anyone else?
Yup. JUST AS I HAD 20K POINTS IN A MATCH. Fucking hell.
[QUOTE=little.sparrow;35890662]Yup. JUST AS I HAD 20K POINTS IN A MATCH. Fucking hell.[/QUOTE] I was right behind the flag carrier about to roadkill them :v:
I want a direct gold to money slider. The main advantage is however much gold for an equivalent of real money. The disadvantage is that there is no bonus gold.
Yesterday's deal: 20% off Stealthy Today's deal: 60% off Stealthy Gee, I wonder what HiRez offers me tomorrow.
woo got a config that will let me play tribes now, my old one was giving me like 15 fps D:
50% off Pilot :v: I want 80% off the LAR or something.
Just earned 40k points in a match with the jackal. Made a sentinel bash on me for using it,calling me a "sticky spammer". Yes,it's my fault because 3 of you were stuck in the gen room all next to each other.
In regards to the "is tribes overpriced" discussion that some people have across the internet: Yes. The average player may earn 200-300 XP a round, and he wants the thumper or some other similarly priced weapon. With no VIP or boost, it will take him an average of 400 matches. This is not counting first win of the day or badges. Throw VIP into the equation, which correct me if im wrong, doubles your XP gain, and so it's (obviously) 200 matches. Also not counting first win of the day. With a booster, it would take about 133.3R matches to get that much, but at this point you may as well use the gold to get it. I'm probably horridly wrong about the values, and this is obviously an estimation, but it's still something to think about.

Even buying a small amount of gold to get VIP, support the devs and servers, and get you a small item seems fair in my opinion. If you didn't pay for it, I don't really see how you can complain. But maybe that's just my point of view
as much as i'd like to buy an assload of gold, i do not have the means to.
[QUOTE=Trumple;35891484]A rather good point if you think about it[/QUOTE] Well that just makes my thoughts seem silly :v:

I got the motion sensors in like, two weeks, and most of those days I only played until I got the first win of the day/didn't play at all. [editline]9th May 2012[/editline] Pretty sure the VIP bonus applies to the first win of the day, so you get 1800 XP. And who only gets 300 xp? I get like 600-1k+ if I was there for the entire match.

Is not that hard but at least you need to play 3-4 games per day counting first wins of the day and a few badges.
Lag spikes are unforgiving today, I can't play decently [editline]9th May 2012[/editline] oh great in the new mapit can go up to 400ping
I fucking love the Tartarus map. It's so fun. Now if they only made it able to play Bella Omega,even if just only on custom servers.
Great, my game is lagging horribly when a new beautiful map gets added and I think I have to downgrade from low graphical quality to minimal. [editline]edited[/editline] Changing to minimal didn't work, it's still a powerpoint presentation. And it didn't even close properly, I was wondering why my browser was going so slow.
I think I went a [I]little[/I] too fast: [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8403469/2012-05-09_00002.jpg[/img] I love speed measurement bugs when you get hit by multiple explosions.
I need a good script guide, I cant find anything.
