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

I'm thinking of getting into this game. Anything I should know before playing?

If we get Spin + AR, what's the point of having Eagle + Thumper? There's just NO point, in fact I'm sure they'll do it now and make the eagle + thumper the free setup, and then you have to upgrade to spin + ar to be an effective soldier.

[QUOTE=BeardyDuck;36151012][url]http://www.spinfusor.org/[/url] full "tribes council" talk on spinfusor.org here's a general overview of what they talked about in an hour's time[/QUOTE][quote]Soldiers AR needs to be buffed. [B]Spinfusor/AR as a primary/secondary option for Soldiers should be considered[/B] Soldiers should be made a viable chasing class, perhaps by giving them the Thrust Pack [/quote]Haha, I would wreck shit if they did that, they should keep it Assault Rifle or Spinfusor/Thumper or Eagle Pistol in my opinion

I will say this for the millionth time, but I love fractals Joined a game with 4 minutes remaining, as soon as I join I notice two teammates saying how we should wait for the match to end instead of getting our flag back (our team had 4 captures, and the enemy just one), I picked brute and went to the gen room anyways First try, I get a triple kill, second try two kills, third try, I kill the flag carrier along two other sandrakers I also got utility belt II [t]http://74.209.134.177/w2n5c2t7/cds/ugc/576705883605954456/2403210FBC820C9130EDE1B56146440835694DAA/?dopvhost=cloud-2.steampowered.com&dopvhost=cloud-2.steampowered.com&doppl=94e699b5db2ed597&dopsig=6cc65afb1bc35e15386353e1c8cb9113[/t]

What's worse then People turtling with the flag on the gen room or a brute cleaning the flag stand/gen room

This game is extremely fun. :v:

[QUOTE=Nutt007;36153365]This game is extremely fun. :v:[/QUOTE] Wait till it gets good, then it gets better :downs:

The council suggestions are split evenly between good, bad, and wtf for me. Buffing soldiers, chasing, and better maps is nice Heat mechanic and flags increasing mass sound like bad ideas. wtf soldier thrust pack.

Everyone from shazpunch the current time for the match is 5pm EST on Saturday. ZombieDawgs will need to be subbed for anyone on the roster, and theirs at 50% chance I won't be able to play due to technical issues.

Did i miss something?

I would welcome most of the changes, but not the heat mechanic.

[QUOTE=lapsus_;36155315]I would welcome most of the changes, but not the heat mechanic.[/QUOTE] Maybe on the juggernaut LMG, that thing is way too powerful in his hands, as a secondary.

[QUOTE=Kaelazun;36155958]Maybe on the juggernaut LMG, that thing is way too powerful in his hands, as a secondary.[/QUOTE] Jugs shouldn't even have the X1LMG imo

I've said this time and time again that it should be the DMB's optional primary.

and the DMB needs another secondary. The saber is nice and all but when you play against intelligent players it's totally useless.

I spent a whole game trying to get Saber kills on Tartarus. Got 5. It's so bad.

Can someone link me to a list of those changes people proposed?

[QUOTE=krail9;36152767]brutes[/QUOTE] Say the guy with the Raider avatar. They are the incarnation of annoyance.

Is brute the only class without an auto? auto shotgun doesn't count

[QUOTE=Fusnax;36158934]Wait the team is going to have another match?[/QUOTE] Yes the tournament format is swiss round robin so were going to play everyone/most everyone.

Cool, good luck with the next match.

If I was installing tribes on another PC and I swapped over the files on my current ones, would it work?

I dont remember buying a boost, but I have one. Odd.

Juggernaut is officially at %100! Every weapon, armor and pack upgrade. Whew, time to put it on the shelf and explore the wonders of Pathfinder. It's like the new job Francis has in every season premier of Malcolm in the Middle. Fresh and fun again So far I've only got the Thrust Pack and all the armor upgrades except the mass reduction. Anybody got any sweet chasing tips? I'm not used to playing fast classes now.
