Deceptikon 06-24-2008, 04:18 PM Eh I put in an hour of it and its definitely not t1 but it isn't completely awful either.
My only major complaint is having to learn to use the jet down function which I really don't like at all but this is probably more an issue with me then the game itself.
With the weapons I don't like how they implemented the laser rifle they should have just lifted the old style rifle directly from tribes and the sniper loadout is rifle and grenade launcher (what the fuck). The grenade launcher feels really boring to me as the grenades have very little arc to them and seem to explode on contact with no bouncing.
Close in dueling is pretty much a joke because movement can be so erratic its just basically a couple spastic retards slamming the mouse around hoping for a lucky shot and the rocket launchers splash damage seems very tiny so you really need a direct hit
The interface is very limited and the graphics are weak sauce, T:V looked better. Unless huge strides are made I can't see myself paying for this anytime in the near future.

eh... not really. It just takes some time, but people likeonly1bravo, darklord, jinmen or shanks do not spastically slam their mouses, their shots are extremely accurate. The aiming takes just as much time to adjust to as the movement does imo.
RazorJack 06-24-2008, 09:13 PM Just played for 2 minutes and already like the game. As a legends guy (yes not legions) I say, "we had the cool L--- name first... nadder nadder", but otherwise its cool.
only 8 man games? WTF? I want 32!
Wheres the huge ass cain, 5150 or ses server?
Deceptikon 06-24-2008, 09:21 PM If you played Legends almost anything would seem good in comparison though right.
RazorJack 06-24-2008, 10:43 PM Check the staff page foo.
Blitz 06-24-2008, 11:02 PM You can make the servers 16 players.
And again, the dueling is anything but sporadic, and the splash damage is actually rather big (and increased over previous builds) if you still can't hit anything, :shrug: Then it's you.
RazorJack 06-24-2008, 11:09 PM Yea, I can duel really well, and my skill has always sux0red (even in my old school T1 days).
Blitz 06-25-2008, 12:08 AM Well, the dueling used to be 10x as sporadic and even the best players could barely hit anything. It's far far better now, with the increased splash damage I mean we tested it out and the rocket causes damage from quite a bit away.
HypnosisFX 06-25-2008, 06:23 AM I played for a hour and i need to get used to the controls, i capped 2 times and they both came after walking back to base. how the F do you ski?

Thanks ill have to go over thjis tonight. 2 more days and vacation time to play.
thereal Shaolinmonk 06-25-2008, 02:38 PM don't forget to try the specialist weps. I never see anyone using the spec grenade, which is a timed cluster bomb covering a large area. The rocket spec is also good if you miss your ma, you can detonate it in midair causing a larger burst effect.
hold down the trigger after shooting the spec wep untill your recticle fills up, then release.

you know you guys made a shitty game right
TricKStyLe 06-26-2008, 03:18 AM I actually played a few hours worth today and aside from lack of weps (only 3) and lack of maps (only 2) it does have some serious potential, still getting the hang of skiing but the rocket launcher feels ok to me, not T1 though. I agree grenades need more arc. and now granted Ive always sucked with the CG but I can hit people with the chaingun, when they have "critical health" several times, and they don't die. that being said I suck with the CG
Zxqv8 06-26-2008, 04:30 AM i don't like the boundaries, and that going too fast hurts you
other than that, well i guess i kinda grew out of tribes because it just doesn't grab me. the rest of it is alright but i just don't care anymore

Rampancy 06-26-2008, 10:31 AM aside from lack of weps (only 3) (only 4)* ;)
Definitely an issue though. I hope Munge is smart enough to just roll out a mortar with the Sentinel class by default. There's no real point in a heavy, easy-to-hit armor if there's no artillery to go with it.
Zxqv8 06-26-2008, 04:07 PM How does going too fast hurt you..?
eh maybe it doesn't except in overdrive
but oh hey, there's overdrive, that hurts you
i don't like that
BugsPray 06-26-2008, 06:18 PM eh maybe it doesn't except in overdrive

i don't like that
Disk jumps hurt you.
:wave:

i don't like thatOverdrive is a movement enhancer. If you're traveling at high speed, it's more likely to slow you down than speed you up in its current iteration. It's definitely a useful tool, though.
