It seems like this is one of the exceedingly rare dev team that's really listened to a wide swath of the audience and testers.
It's not just that they are listening, it's that they have to listen. The original Tribes was a fluke, it would have never reached the kind of popularity it did without the physics bug that created skiing, and it existed in a very narrow space where if it were even only moderately different than what it was, it also probably would have never taken off. T2 is a good example of this, as the core concepts were implemented, but done so in a way that the game wasn't really very fun.
The devs need to listen to the community, even if there are a lot of bad ideas because nobody knows how to really make Tribes again; it's not like the traditional MP FPS where there are rules etched out over a decade and a hundred games - the jetpack and skiing throw all those paradigms out the window. The Tribes concept is very hard to understand, and unless a game distills just the right essence of it, it not only will be looked upon unfavorably by the core community, but by the wider audience as well. Tribes is like Life cereal, Mikey liking it is the key to getting everyone else to like it too.
