ditto

I see the same 3 or 4 peeps I've never heard of before in here tryin to say T:V kicks ass, and everyone else who have been here the last 5+ years noticing that T:V has serious problems.



Just because people dont post, or are new to the boards, doesnt mean they are new to tribes. See my member status? I've been around for ages and own all three tribes games, I didnt feel any need to join the boards. This is T:V, not TW:V

i see nothing wrong with the game. i have had under 10 crashes since beta. tell me what game doesnt crash????????????????

no pron has every been on my gamer. this is probably the real reason most peeps shazbot crashes.

I've downloaded plenty of porn, But tribes still doesnt crash for me unless its testing out a custom map of mine, which is my fault.

I never play T:V anymore :(

I'm going to try to make myself go to the KY PU tonight, however. Play some new maps, maybe spark an interest (it's doubtful though)

Yeah, you know a game sucks when you have to make yourself play it, just to curb the cost.

I don't care what everyone said about Tribes2, it at least had over 100 teams on the ladder and didn't sputter out even after 3 solid months of competition. This is just pathetic. Teams are dropping before there's even a serious run for rung 1.

I think this is worse because there aren't any patches to fix the issues yet.


guess we should go play single player and wait on the patches to fix the problems and compilers ...

I look at it this way mostly.Rather than judge TV on single opinions expressed on here.How many people are playing the game? Obviously TV is not bringing over T1 and T2 players at all.Just look at the numbers...people are not playing it.Why? They don't like it...duh?

TWL is still alive and well. The life of TV will all come down to the patch.

i want an oldschool tribes (where skiing is the important part, not spiderman skillz) with all the funny things from the previous tribes, like chasing cappers etc.

perhaps most players from t1 and t2 want that too (when u look at playernumbers it may be the case?)

It's not T:V that's killing tribes.
It's you nobrain whiners here at tribalwar that tries to.
You won't succeed though

About T1. T1 wasn't even noticed in europe, go figure.
T2 was and T:V is constantly becoming bigger and bigger.

jo hardcampa, believe it for ur own sake.

when t:v retail came out about 800 peeps were playing at nearly every time.
now it isnt even shown on the gamespy server list anymore most of the time, that means less then around 100 people play it.

and u still think it is becoming bigger?

wake up man

the playercount is a joke after 2 month release, no old players are playing it, neither t1 nor t2. No new people started it (figure out yourself why).

and u r telling us it becomes bigger?

get real.

if it can draw people back to the game. quite a few people have left due to WoW, hl2, etc. I dont think a patch alone can save it. Although ill be playing if it fixes things, since im not playing anything else atm.

The game has potential and I don't think anyone on TW should doubt it. In it's current state the game is better than anything else out there, but it seriously lacks exposure. Considering the game came out when HL2, H2, D3, WOW, and GTASA were released or are about to be released can you really blame it for not doing that well?

No one on TW supports it because they are simply ungrateful bastards. The game is decent, it's not shazbot. It has minor gameplay issues but they've instantly gone into bitch 'n whine mode because it seems as though thats all they can do.

T:V base is perfect for introducing new people into the game. It's not perfect for pure veterans of the game and I don't understand why everyone was expecting that. Like Tribes 2 base, a classic mod will come out. It's possible and not very hard to do. It could fix every single gameplay issue vets have with the game, but like I said they are ungrateful bastards who don't even see the potential that this game has.

well, u r wrong if u think only tw is smashing the game.

In europe (i am a european player) simply noone plays it. U got like 15 or even less active clans there. The rest simply stopped playing. And i doubt they are ungrateful bastards. Many people wait for a gameplay fix (mod or whatever). But there is one problem u already mentioned:Hl2 and other games came out and obviously rock as they are sold and played.
So the danger is pretty high that many people dont want to wait 6 month or even longer until a decent mod comes out.


so, i can understand people wanting their beloved tribes back ( as they dont see t:v as tribes i think ) and therefor shouting out loud and bashing t:v in the hope that something will happen.

T2 killed many teams too. Tribes has been dying since the release of T2.

T:V simply failed because both T1 and T2 were better games in their own way, T:V was better game in competition but the bad netcode, unbalanced base designs, pod, nonregs, weak tournymod and grappler ruined it. Its also amazing that i play daily in 32 player CS:Source servers while T:V which is a Tribes game cant handle more than 20 players, which is one of the reasons why pubs arent so so fun anymore. Lack of good gametypes and decent maps is another thing that killed T:V pubs.

Two months ago i still hated CS but now the only FPS game im playing is CS:Source. Its just the old CS with better gfx and physics but it did the trick, playing CS is now fun again and i dont have to spent time to be good at it. I wish they would have done the same for T1. I bet that the updated T1 would be up there with Q3/UT2004 today.

Why every new Tribes game has to be different than the others or the first one? Why spent time to design something when everything you need is already in T1, all you need is better engine. Quake or UT games have never changed as much Tribes did, thats why they are doing well. Fans always know what to expect when they get a new Quake or UT, while new Tribes games are always a huge let down for the existing fans.

STFU member. There is a patch on the way. T2 patches came out slowly as did the T1 patches. They just can't rush it out.

The teams could very well rejoin once the patches come out and they see it has fixed the issues they don't like.

I love the friendly atmosphere here

Jesus, Every damn post is just an Echo of what they where right after T2 was Released.

Every game needs patches.
patches aren't enough to save this piece of s h i t. This game doesn't play like tribes and is not a tribes game. VuG is full of dips h i t s who obviously didn't know shazbot about the game and developed it to their sh i t t y mentality.

larger from a bunch of crap players. Not many vets playing anymore due to the fact that the game is CRAP
