[QUOTE=The golden;36259998]Due to the fact that CaH is primarily about duels, the automatics dominate that gamemode by far. Chainguns, LMGs, and NJ5's are unstoppable.[/QUOTE] Played a round of this. Any point not getting spammed is a Sentinel duel and your anus better be prepared for a Falcon. That thing can shred even heavies in seconds.

CaH is primarily about disconades and jackal shots on control points.

I get the weirdest shit in my game I swear to god Sometimes when I'm on the round debrief screen I'll be talking with some cool guys and all of a sudden the game quits to the main menu and makes that big "YOU HAVE JOINED A CUE" noise Fuck you game I was with some pretty cool guys too

Before my match today, I had never captured a flag in Tribes. Today, I captured three! In one match! [editline]10th June 2012[/editline] What are some good newbie unlocks? I've been using the Soldier. I want to go fast.

What about for a Soldier? I do really well indoors.

depends on what position you play. light defense: ar+thumper, proxy nades, utility pack, safety third+quick draw light offense: disc+eagle, ap grenades, utility pack, and maybe looter+survivalist? [editline]10th June 2012[/editline] you can probably pull off safety third+quick draw on lo as well just because they're good perks.

[QUOTE=The golden;36273325]I'm still on the fence about what I think of the Falcon. It is used by the class that pretty much has the lowest amount of health of any class in the game. They can be killed by a direct hit from any explosive weapon. Whereas heavies can take up to 4 to 5 [B]direct[/B] hits. Either way, I think it should be removed on the grounds of it being an automatic weapon. The Nova Blaster is already near perfect. It's hard hitting but hard to master.[/QUOTE] SORRY EVERY CLASS NEEDS AN SMG HI-REZ POLICIES.

I might give this gun a try!

Snipers have never ever not been a good class, before or after the Falcon. The whole thing just seems like a waste of time spent coding, animating, modeling, and skinning a weapon no one needed.

AR+Thumper because of how good it is for chasing Energy pack Frag XL (it's excellent for clearing flagstands, and if I need to get away from being chased, they work very well) Bounty hunter+Survivalist (Which is standard on most of the classes I play)

I mostly play LD soldier Spinfusor / pistol Utility pack proximity grenades bounty hunter/survivalist If I want to go disrupt some defence I equip the AP grenades instead.

This is probably a bug, but when you get 2 belt items from ammo packs you can get one more than your max. Its just like Safety Third but you don't get the +10 radius bonus, but since you can pretty much spam grenades everywhere I think it makes up for it.

I capped a flag before anybody even got a kill!

[QUOTE=Agoat;36278025]I capped a flag before anybody even got a kill![/QUOTE] Wait till you get a cap as a heavy. Its so humiliating to the other team.

Plus they're easy for humiliating midair grenade kills.

[QUOTE=Don Knotts;36278288]Invest in the Utility pack and get more than one Frag XL. That shit's like Draino for clogged flag stands, capture points and generator rooms.

[QUOTE=DireAvenger;36278403]Personally I prefer the proximity nade, but that's probably because I have an uncanny good aim with them for some reason.[/QUOTE] Really depends. I only prefer the Frag XL because of area denial. Plus I like a grenade I can bounce off of shit without the risk of it blowing its load prematurely.

[QUOTE=Agoat;36272531]What are some good newbie unlocks? I've been using the Soldier. I want to go fast.[/QUOTE] definitely save up for proximity nades they are very fun or spinfusor+eagle if you don't have that yet

Yeah,got my 100k,now i shall wait 'till the next patch to see if new weps will be added. Does anybody know what is the exact date?

Oh my god fuck these people with red ranks They're so much better than me I wish they would fuck off and stop joining the enemy team all the time I mean come on you have so much skill why would you waste that on SANDRAKERS [editline]11th June 2012[/editline] Also, I hope I'm not the only one that HATES crossfire. Attacking on it is hard as dicks if your team doesn't harass the generator CONSTANTLY and defending on it is worse than shoving two cacti up mine arsehole. Not only that, but most of your team will inevitably go sentinel and have sniper games with eachother's ships/radar plates. And there are NO good juggernaut positions.
