Hi-Rez Studios now offers a new patch for the
Tribes: Ascend closed beta, updating the upcoming multiplayer shooter sequel to version 0.1.601.0. Word is the new version: "contains a brand new version of the Bella Omega CTF map, a number of weapon balance changes, significant updates to vehicles, an increased “first win of the day” bonus and much more." Here are the major highlights:
- Bella Omega has been re-added to the CTF Map Rotation. Significant changes have occurred since the map was last available for play.
- Vehicles have undergone a variety of improvements and cleanups.
- An early (still unpolished) preview of Spectator functionality is available for testing. See additional notes below.
- Token gain from the “First Win of the Day” challenge has been doubled.
- A variety of changes have been made to the in-match credits system.
- Early versions of “Mute Player” and “Report Player” functionality have been added. See additional notes below.
- Fixes to prevent some disconnects and server instability. Additional fixes planned for future patches.

I've been playing this for a few days and am really enjoying it. Love that movement is a skill, and it's not slow like CoD/BF3.
Have they budged on loadouts? That's the one thing that made me really apprehensive about this. I've got a beta invite but with so many other titles out right now, no time to play it  Definitely try it out especially if you're already in the beta. They're not going to move away from pre-set loadouts, but significant changes during the beta have shown they're more than willing to experiment with the business model. They've significantly lowered the Token cost for extra loadouts so you don't need to play quite as long to unlock them, they permanently cut the cost in half for a bunch of others, and will probably continue moving towards the League of Legends model where they rotate through offering a number to play for free temporarily as a way to try them out before buying them. |
