UT with jetpacks.....yeah fun.

What's so freaking hilarious about that line now is that every single uninformed idiot who spouts it thinks a) he's the first one who's ever said it and b) that he thinks it's so funny.

Nevermind that it's not true. Geez.

I recently downloaded the Beta, and it was great fun. (I'm a Tribes 1 veteran) Sure some things have been mainstreamed but it's still a darn fine game. Just be sure to play one of the large maps.

As a Beta tester, that means we would normally be in the loop for what's getting fixed. And I assume single-player will still have inventory stations.....

I hope the AI is good. If so, playing with bots is probably gonna be more fun than playing on some of the more immature servers out there. The bots in UT2004 played a much better game than most of the humans.

people who say that T:V is UT with jetpacks obviously never played the game. So ignore them. The skill involved when playing Tribes is above and beyond that of a standard online FPS. It's a completely different feel. I just think that when people compare the two games, they are just basing it on the screenshots that they've seen... in which I admit that they look similar. But that has nothing to do with how the game plays. They are both very different.

so the vehicles are useless because they are easier to use? wouldn't that make them more useful?

Actually I like all vehicles except the fighter (sphere thingy) because it has too much armor. half of that would be perfect so they wont use those all the time for defense and midfield. Light armors look extremely stupid against those. even repeated chain gun hits dont bring them down fast enough.

q[ To fastpaced...good for UT fans and Doom freaks
Vehicles useless....anyone and there mother can take one out easy
Jet packs Uber....jet packs have tunred men into super men
Weapons suck....pretty easy there all spam

Tribes is no more. Its should be called Tribes Arena. That name fits the smaller area and crappy vehicles. I didnt really see anyone use anything but the small sphere vehicle.]
That's right, that's what this game is now.. a sad memory of what it once was.

Too fastpaced? Have you played Tribes1?

I was a big fan of Tribes1 and Tribes2, and this thing is just as fast paced or less compared to Tribes1. It's a lot more fast paced compared to Tribes2 thoguh, I'll admit.

Vehicles useless though? I beg to differ... sure, anyone can take them out easily, but the problem is, most people don't! They serve a purpose simply because they are so darn ignored when flyin around.

Jetpacks are the same as they have always been IMO, if not toned down compared to before, so yeah, I was more uber in Tribes1/2 with those jetpacks.

Weapons... hmm... seeing as how there were only 3 new ones, I assume you must be talking about them, because the rest of the weapons are the same as the other 2 games.

Smaller maps isn't the best thing ever, I agree. But then again this is just the beta we'eve played and havnt' actually gotten to see the full games maps... so i dunno. But it's still fun.

Sweet, maybe I can learn the game without derissive comments from people who have played it cult-style for years.

Pffft, ignore those morons. Thats what I did when I learned T1 (about 6 months after release) and after I mastered it I shot those bastards so many discs in their face that they shut the fuck up once and for all.

=( Tribes has been whored out like a commercial console Bi..

This make meh angry very angry. For the love of god, someone from the original Dynamix team please step forward and lets build the Tribes we have all been waiting for since the birth of T1. Yes T2 had a bad introduction, but you've learned, Torque needs an upgrade (the real engine for Tribes) and you now know decreasing speed is a no no.

T4 could be An uberfied Tribes with elements from t1 and T2 classic. Im tired of all this tweaking with what works crap which is T.V.

lol exactly xombie. tribes was the first with vehicles and wide open spaces, quake (i think it was quake) was first with capture the flag, and the original team fortress mode was probablyh the first class-based game... tribes revolutionized all of those though, and bf1942,ut2k4,etc all just followed suit. and now tribes is being accused of copying them! hah, it's copying itself people...

We all know that UT2k4 was the first game to ever use veh... oh wait.
Well, UT2k4 was the first game to have capture the fl... um, nevermind.
OH! UT2k4 was the first game to use strategic resources and multiple player cla... huh. UT doesn't have those.

So how is T:V stealing anything from UT again?

have you ever played UT?

i've played it for years and the difference between the two is vast...

the UT=T:V argument doesn't hold a drop of water. the only similarity is that they are both online, both fps games, and both use the same engine.
