[T:V] Fighter

This is to the dev's

the fighter flying thingy mabober

does it feel more like the tribes1 interceptor

or tribes 2 shrike

when flying

or not any of them

.....

thrax ...
i know your around here somewhere

I think it feels like the fighter.

Probably neither.

I have to admit im a LIL disapointed about how its looking :(

I hope not.

The Scout was horrible, as were the other "vehicles" in Tribes.

And the Shrike is damn near impossible to fly.

How about, they just make it better then both in every way?

why? cuz you'll have to learn how to use a new vehicle?
:twak:

or not any of themNot like any of them. Perhaps more like a descent vehicle + gravity. :shrug: It really does feel like the Fighter, and not much else. Somebody will figure out what it feels like and we'll all go "ya, that's it", but it would seem that I'm not that person.

Aww, a total descent vehicle would rock...

Also as a mod Ive always wanted JETTING with the jetpacks to be like "whereever you look when you jet" you go...

SINep time ot Ctrl K. That is the worst idea I have ever heard.

Will you be able to carry the flag while in the fighter?

can we do any crazy things like cut the antigrav and drop like a rock or do flips, loops or dives? can it stall? how high can it go?

I'm hoping you don't eject in a way that allows "shrike capping"

I didn't realize t1 had an interceptor

Renegades i think

And the Shrike is damn near impossible to fly.pffft.
You just need some practice.
I find it second nature now, whereas vehicles in other games feel wrong.

Why not? From what I understand, you won't be able to crash a vehicle and have it be available for respawn immediately.

It makes a joke out of capping

I agree with Registered Fruit. Jumping out of a vehicle and gaining the vehicle's momentum is fun, but it may ultimately cheapens the player's experience.

The decision has to be made between immersion (leaping out with the vehicle's momentum is an immersive experience, especially in a game where you ski and jetpack and move fast already) and gameplay emphasis. I think player emphasis is removed when the vehicles become the way to start routes.
