[QUOTE=Don Knotts;36167128]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.[/QUOTE] Thrust, egocentric, disc jumps, nitrons and mass reduction allows you to catch up to most pub cappers, but since the your default sidearm, the shotgun, has limited range and you can't simply chip away the capper's health like you could with the LAR. In case you successfully forced a flag drop with a nitron you should only consider returning it if the flag is in danger of getting picked up by enemy escorts, you are the only one defending it and you are about to die or your friendly capper is about to cap. Simply shooting the flag with the spinfusor or bold launcher in the right moment can easily mess up the pickup of the flag you are trying to defend. If you couldn't force him to drop the flag and he reaches his base he will either stay there and defend himself, pass the flag to a teammate with more hp or try keeping on to the flag in a ski off. Regardless of which choice he took nitrons are your best friends in such situations. They might hit the flag carrier by surprise and cause him to have tunnel vision for a few moments. Quickly dash for the flag in such situations and if you have the reach perk equipped you might be able to return it before the next volley of spinfusor and thumper shots of the defenders hit your flag.
Game needs FF on so I can tk retards who say defend our generator.
[QUOTE=Raidyr;36167992]Game needs FF on so I can tk retards who say defend our generator.[/QUOTE] yes and I will pass the time killing any and all shrikes that spawn on our pad [editline]2nd June 2012[/editline] [QUOTE==DarkStar=;36158516]Say the guy with the Raider avatar. They are the incarnation of annoyance.[/QUOTE] i don't even play raider :X
Think I just played against the first hacker I've seen in ~100 hours. He was landing all his auto shots and midairs. Joined near the end of the game and finished with most kills by about 15.
[QUOTE=DarkendSky;36153087]no, the worst thing is people turtling gen room on raindance hnnnnnnnnnnng[/QUOTE] I don't think that is a good map.
I play a raider. Do you hate me? :c
People that spam fractals annoy me more than raiders. It's just such a cheap way to get kills. What would make it better would be if they made it harder to resupply grenades in the field, and that maybe you can only get more at supply points. That'd solve the problem of that one lone brute in the other team's gen room just constantly throwing fractals everywhere.
Good luck to Shazpunch today on their second tournament game. I won't be around to play in it but I'll be sure to watch the cast once it goes onto VOD and see how all of you did!
Guys, i dont think we have enough players
well 2 people are out for sure, but we have 2 subs that I thought we organized. I can't play this week as a one off thing (long story). just ask to play 7v7 or get a ringer.

You guys are short of troops for today match?
[QUOTE=LiquidBullet;36171985]2nd, you and zombie are out, atleast his steam name is "back in a week" Who are the subs?[/QUOTE] ZD told me yesterday I would be subbing as capper, but now I've no idea if he even knew I thought he was going to be on today (he said he was going to be on his laptop) but now I'm assuming that no, he's not, as he hasn't been online in 9 hours and his name says "Back in a week" I'm Beetle179 in game, Beetle179 on Steam, let me know if you need me (I can play sniper pretty well and capper acceptably (but if somebody else can, they probably should))
[QUOTE==DarkStar=;36172137]You guys are short of troops for today match?[/QUOTE] Yeah, looks like we need one more person.
Zombie said he was going to be the captain but he was going to play in this laptop Im one of the subs
[QUOTE=Kaelazun;36172340]Yeah, looks like we need one more person.[/QUOTE] So am I in this one, or no? If so, what role will I be in?
What time does the match begin at for central timezone? If it is before work I could do a game.
I have no information about anything. Zombiedawgs pretty much arranged stuff and if i could, i would speak to the other team about the details and if its possible to like move the date of the game [editline]2nd June 2012[/editline] So, were letting them win by default. I managed to arrange a scrim after this round so we could still play against eachother. Zombie check your email. He will be messaging you soon.
at 9 pm est my team will be facing off against team HoA (horsemen of the apocalypse) on tribescast 2 hours from this post. [url]http://tribescast.com/[/url]
Capping as a Brute is rewarding as hell. Going 200 sanics from a grav cycle and giving the bird to the hof(s) as you run through his mines and force fields and not give a fuck. The survival pack is amazing for capping as well. 200hp and the energy regen helps a lot.
[url]http://www.twitch.tv/tribescast2[/url] match starting
yay I can go fast with you again, my exams are over
we went 2-1 which means we now have 4 points in the tournament. [editline]3rd June 2012[/editline] [url]http://pastebin.com/7nRBhEFc[/url] current points in the tournament.
I've just been emailed as part of a discussion to check that we have lost the match by default because we didn't have enough players. Can someone from the team tell me why you didn't try to rearrange / play 7v7 or get a ringer (as per competition rules) and instead forfeited. I'm pretty sure I didn't say to forfeit.
somebody posted a mock-up picture of a suggestion on how to make spawn points better on /r/tribes [img]http://i.imgur.com/LMKJq.jpg[/img]

On a related note, it's kinda annoying spawning just to be killed by the juggernaut waiting behind you.

Sorry about the match, yes I had to go but if you guys could maybe persuade shazbutt to play tonight or something. I don´t know, there´s not much I can do 3000 miles away from the nearest computer able to play Tribes, so you´re on your own and I´m sorry for that.
