TV not my cup of tea........

its an alright game i like it.. just wish it was darker and the bases were bigger...and when you blow up an enemy gen the base would power down like th elights go out n shazbot, those are small things.. the game is fun but the player movement seems jerky and not fluid but that could just be my vid card.
i am guessing when the mod community gets ahold of TV and the game is finished it will take on a life of its own and hopefully will be around just as long as t1/t2....long time t2 players are starting to sound like t1 players when t2 first came out...unwilling to give something new a chance. i for 1 have been plaing t2 for 3 years and i am more than ready to try something different.

gg's

jerky, non-fluid = unreal engine = very inaccurate = pos

ill be back to finish our eloquent talk...

Actually all that is because the game is BETA.

You think you've got a finely polished finished product in front of you?

this is characteristics in the latest versions of ut as well...im not talking about the quirks im talking about the whole foundation the game is built on

I guess you have little knowledge of the Vengeance engine. This is a very heavily modified UnrealEngine 2. The movement physics are all custom. Vehicles and Ragdoll are all on the Havok physics engine. The netcode has been tweaked hardcore.

What you have are a few bumps and bugs that are going to exist in a beta product. It has nothing to do with the engine they started building the game on 2 years ago.

i really hope you are right yogi....



cause my ren t2 days are coming to an end and i will have no other option than to easily own the fucktards in this thread (cept u yogi)...shout out to LOH, DCR, WOOHOO, DC, III...rip XM

Still say the game sucks. =)

The T:V animations are extremely LAME though. It's like the 3D artists animated it with little stick men and motion capture video.

The T2/T1 animations kicked your asses. Fix it.

this thing is the next trives :D

Rebuttal to your Cons

1) where are you playing? I've seen a hell of alot worse netcode before.I'm hitting multiple MAs... Disc, Buckler, and Burner.
2) Issa Beta. Bug ahoy.
3) You can set it up to mimic the T2 way (Where space jumps and ski's and whatever else jets (or even jumps and jets...)
4) Live with it, I've found that using the Shift:WASD is just as fast, if not faster, than T2's interface.

The rest are personal opinion only...


I 100% agree. This guy is a retard. Let him go play no skill UT.

Can I just point out that there is next to nothing of the Unreal Engine's physics system in T:V? All that it's used for is falling flags and simple items that shouldn't act realistically and so don't use Havok. As for player physics, irrational custom built their own code for that.

Just because it's on the Unreal engine doesn't mean it "has to feel somewhat like UT"

:shrug:

After playing Tribes, then Tribes 2 for a long time, then playing UT2004 for awhile and quit because it wasn't all that great.. Now playing Tribes Vengance.. Yeah, I'd have to say it's pretty much UT2004 with jetpacks.

I knew it'd be like this since they announced that Tribes Vengance would use the UT2004 engine. The vehicles drive and feel like vehicles from UT2004 onslaught, meh it's just too lame.

Meh, one less game I'm looking forward to I guess.


Ignorance. I hate Ignorance. It is a different game, Different Mechanics, Different Strategy, Different Weapons, Takes 10x more skill. Anyone who states that is a flat out dumbass. Those TWO GAMES ARE NOTHING ALIKE. Other then the fact that they use the same engine. Wow there are like 20+ games right now using the havok physics engine , they must all suck cuz they are just like HL2?

I don't need to learn to play again.. I played UT2004, was good at it, and it got boring so I quit. Now I'm just going back to a game that I quit because it has jetpacks? No.

The game Doesn't "suck" suck, they just completely kiled the concept and originality of the game to get a quick product out on the market by using a premade engine and now it feels like another game..

Consumer whores will enjoy it, but not I.

You too my freind are a dumbass. Do you know it takes 2 years on average if not three for a game to be made on a pre-existing engine. If they were to create their own engine for physics and graphics it would have taken anywhere from 3-6 years to put out. You go ahead and whine like a bitch because it didn't tickle your fancy while the rest of ourselves enjoy a REAL game not this rehashed WSAD shoot bam kill bullshazbot. Oh btw... UT2004 is the same thing it was in UT hasn't changed a bit so how is that for originitality? It just copied planetsides concept anyway. If you dont like it , dont post here this is a place for Tribes lovers to congregate. Not for us to sit here and listen to people like you who try to convince the world that you hate it and wont play it, when in fact you probably do but you just whine for the attention.

sound like a douche. glad you uninstalled

God damn jerks are pissing me off with their ignorance.

its the same engine it HAS to feel at least somewhat like ut... this has me worried too somewhat...


NO IT DOESN'T.

If you redo the physics it will feel NOTHING like the original game.

i really hope you are right yogi....



cause my ren t2 days are coming to an end and i .....

:closet:

have u noticed MA's dont always register

"Dear diary, apparently some newbies have been using the wrong name all these years for hitting a person with disc-launcher when they are mid-flight. These idiots don't call it an "Air Disc". The noobs seem to call it a "MA" or "Mid Air". I mean...who the hell would call it a "MA"...that is just stoopid. Btw - I'm going to go back to playing UT2k4 cuz TV is obviously the same game with jetpacks...duh. PS - In case you forgot diary...I am zee master of T2. rawr!


.

so what, the effin guys dont like it and if their views are skewed, /shrug who cares. You guys are getting bent out of shape because someone doesnt share YOUR opinion on the game.

Its beta, efftards will quit instead of writing up bugs and the rest of us will have a fun polished game. Quit blowing smoke up someones ass who has it closed off.
