Now THAT Brings back memories!

So, I figured I'd play some tribes 2 tonight, as I've been playing the hell out of Tribes 1 lately, and figured I'd check out these remakes of the classic maps and the classic gameplay.

I join Mofo's serverside maps, and play through Blast Side, just duelling outside. Then Roller Coaster where I capped, then after realizing my team had next to no D when HoF. The map switched to Rain Dance, and I again immediately went to HoF.

Me and some other guy are doing great defending our flag, there's 10 minutes left in the map, and the other team has only touched our flag 4 times and no capped once (our team has capped 3 or 4 times). Anyhow, a HO rush comes, and I'm left on the flag all alone, with no way to resupply as my team tries to get rid of the heavies in our base, while helping defend the flag and give some token O in spawn gear and scavenged packs.

A few minutes pass, I run out of mortars after shooting at incoming HO and LO, and I'm down to my last rocket. I'm doing ok on chain, disc, and plasma because I've been scavenging from would-be cappers I killed (scarily enough, I'm having an "on" night). I look to the right, and see a red triangle coming through the air. I immediately switch to chain and start firing as I see grenades coming down for me, I hear a couple "pings" as my chain gun hits the guy, but not steadily enough, meanwhile his grenades have just eaten through my shields. I switch to plasma hoping to get him as he comes in close, I see him switch to disk, we both aim..fire..and my game locks up follwed by a popup box going "Unhandled Exception"

I guess somethings never change :)

:lol:

But it sounds like you were having some fun! :)

Yeah, I don't think I've had that much fun playing Tribes since the enDless competed in OGL for Tribes 1 and TWL for Tribes 2. Ahh..memories :)

I've always loved the irony in the initials of the editor I use to write scripts with. This is its windows icon for my .cs files:

ultraedit rocks

tribes talk suxxx

heh, if you want real memories (ie. elitist pricks talking about how good they are and how bad everyone else is, you know...like tribes was meant to be) join Rapture Comp. East :D

That's all Tribalwar is, elitest pricks who's ACT/SAT scores are almost perfect, dicks are bigger than 8 inches AT LEAST, and live a better life than you or anyone you know. Oh, and they think T:V should be T1 + better graphics.

Meheh

don't forget my 160 IQ :)

T:V should be T1 with better graphics? :confused:

i was in there earlier. some guy was cheating. he was able to follow where people were going through hills and i never saw him an an iff, even when we got into some duling action. i plan on formatting this weekend because i get 10 - 20 fps in t2 with things on med with a gf3 ti 200. i used to get in the 80s on high a year ago

Still, you gotta love it
