[QUOTE=mchapra;33856827]How's the Pathfinder? I have enough tokens to purchase it. Is it like a faster soldier?[/QUOTE]
He dies noticeably faster than the soldier, but he's also EXTREMELY faster in the movement department too. The different Spinfusor also feels different (I like it).

Pathfinder has a spinfusor that has a smaller splash damage and higher direct hit damage, he goes fast and has grenades that explode on impact and make you deaf/lose the flag.

I've tried a Repair Install and it just broke it further, I sent HiRez an email WEEKS ago and they still haven't contacted me and downloaded new Drivers. Is there a way to fix this?[/QUOTE]
I've seen a similar bug in another game by HiRez. Try disabling the forced AA
It surprises me the number of people who seem to believe that using classes instead of loadouts will ruin the game, despite the fact it is not even out of closed beta yet. Just last week they changed hitscan weapons to projectile weapons, something that is no small thing.
Speaking of loadouts vs classes, they've said they went for the class system because it's a lot easier to balance. Plus this way they can add new weapons, devices, and packs to one class very easily while keeping it balanced.

I'd love a shotgun or someshit for techie, that smg is just so fucking weak.

[release][B][U]Patch Notes for December 23, 2011[/U][/B]
[B]Tribes Closed Beta Version 0.1.636.0[/B]
-Improved tracers on most rapid-fire projectile weapons.
-Modified projectile inheritance on all Spinfusors, all Bolt Launchers, the ArxShotgun, and Thumper (flat 50%).
-Reduced sniper rifle effectiveness versus Shrikes.[/release]
At least they're nerfing the sniper in [I]some[/I] way. It's a start.
Just got my beta key :)
Went 37 - 0 with the Beowulf. Inb4 nerf.

Ive never had an issue with them. If there was one causing my team too much havoc I would switch to soldier and end up slaughtering it before the driver can manage to kill me.
After long periods of meditation I'm finally going to activate my key.
Hopefully this game is as good as everyone says :L
Soooo i pre-orderer it.
But don't have the 30 days booster...
What the fuck ?

HALP
you activate it in the launcher
Just got a beta key, damn it is awesome
[QUOTE=Crazy_Farmer;33879342]you activate it in the launcher[/QUOTE]
Sounds dumb but : where ? Can't manage to find it.
Just started playing a few days ago. Do new weapons unlock when you level up, or do you have to buy them with some paid/in-game currency?

Weapons are class based and you get them with the class. To unlock class you either play until you have enough tokens or buy them with gold.
The thumper needs a bit of a nerf - It just feels too OP.
[QUOTE=little.sparrow;33881109]The thumper needs a bit of a nerf - It just feels too OP.[/QUOTE]
I agree, that or I suck every time a ranger wants me dead.
[QUOTE=little.sparrow;33881109]The thumper needs a bit of a nerf - It just feels too OP.[/QUOTE]
People say this but I die far more often to spinfusors than to thumpers.
I'd take a thumper nerf if the assault rifle was better.
I found the assault rifle to be completely useless.
[QUOTE=little.sparrow;33881109]The thumper needs a bit of a nerf - It just feels too OP.[/QUOTE]
The thumper is good at close range (very good indoors) but is far worse at range. For one, they have a ballistic trajectory, and a maximum range (before they detonate). Its benefits however, are that it does have a slightly larger splash radius.
So what the hell happened to the first win of the day bonus? Not getting them any more.
Also what have they done to Bella Omega and what did Bella Omega do to deserve such a fate?
[QUOTE=Funny Hats;33882139]So what the hell happened to the first win of the day bonus? Not getting them any more.[/QUOTE]
I'm pretty certain its still being given, the first win of the day I usually get around 180 tokens, and a ton of exp, then the rest of the day I only get around 80 tokens and not as much exp. It just doesn't show the badge thing anymore I guess.
[QUOTE=mchapra;33881560]I found the assault rifle to be completely useless.[/QUOTE]
It's good for chasing and the occasional bad player who doesn't know how to strafe. Also some use indoors against someone using an explosive that can't aim, as well as heavies in general. It's a mediocre weapon but not totally useless imo.

Last time I played I was getting something like 160 tokens every match :v:
I was doing really well but still I don't know why I got so much.

I think it's great, there's so many situations when you aren't in a good position to thumper someone and you can really easily soften them up with it.

Heh, well I must be getting pretty good at it. A couple times I've even managed to take out Doombringers by shooting them right as they launcher their missiles, taking both out a once.

The first win of the day is bugged and getting fixed in the next patch
Bella Omega was always meant to be a desert map, not a snowy map, they just didn't have the right textures at the time. IMO it's a good map, the force fields really makes you want to keep the generator up which is nice.
