Here's a reminder that the 20th anniversary of
Starsiege Tribes is
Friday, and that fans of the class-based shooter are planning a reunion
event/tournament to celebrate the milestone. Here's the post we made about this
in July: With the 20th
anniversary of the launch of Starsiege Tribes coming up on November 30th, the
small, but still active community for Dynamix's cult-classic shooter is gearing
up to celebrate. They are planning an anniversary reunion event and tournament
to run that weekend, hoping to inspire participation from other fans of the game
and anyone else who's interested. This is unofficial, as they have the blessings
of rights-holder Hi-Rez, but the developer is declining to participate otherwise
to avoid creating the impression that they may be working on a new game in the
series, since that is not the case. The Tribes community has set up this website
as a way for new and returning players to get started playing, and the site
offers this page to explain their anniversary event and to accept signups from
those who wish to participate. They also point the way to the Tribes Talk
Discord server as another resource. Here's a bit on the plan:
Tribes will
be hitting the big 2-0 on November 30th, 2018 and we are planning to put
together a 20th Anniversary Weekend and LT tournament to celebrate. The plan is
to have a reunion weekend/event for everyone to get their nostalgia on and play
some old school Tribes. Additionally, as we still have a small but dedicated
community of LT players, we are planning to organize an LT tournament.
The goal is to get in touch with old veterans and new players alike to get as
big of a turnout as possible for the anniversary weekend event and LT
tournament. Currently, as far as organized events go, we are only planning for
an LT tournament but if there is enough interest it would be awesome if we could
get some 10v10 Base pickup games or an arena/duel tournament as well. If you are
interested please register using either the 20th Anniversary Reunion Weekend
link or the LT tournament link. If you are signing up for the LT tournament no
need to sign up for the event link. Please share this with anyone you think
would be interested!
