Ascension finally died like...today?
I appreciate the Release of the code base. Hell, I might even take a look at it and see what you got going (sourceforge plz). Arigato. I really did not expect for you to keep going so long.
But seriously? Fukkin Deuse posts some sort of awkwardly focused screenshots and a link to this thread and it's from this project, and suddenly HI REMEMBER Ascension BYE NOW...
Maybe I'm a bit out of the TW loop, but it just seems we've picked up where we left off three/four years ago with same utterly pointless crap with these "omg tribes - the third cuming!" projects that collapse, fail to go anywhere, or just aren't that interesting. All while still cockjousting over which Tribes game was the most elite. Seriously?
How many so far?
SS2245834234 (shoutout to cinder, who prob still hates me
)
Ascension
Legends
Legions (yes, it counts)
Clans
Quake Wars (buy that first gaiz!) Enemy territory: Tribes: The Return: Turbo
Honestly, I could smack Deuse right now making me think this was a new project and not just an old one chiming in after two years.
I don't know which would be worse - hearing of yet another project, or hearing of an old one, and in this case I heard of two.
It's not that we're old - we're freaking tired.
EDIT: If anyone is out there: if you dare pick up the rubble of ascension, or try to start your own, do NOT listen to anyone about Tribes 1 or 2 (especially not Vengeance). MAKE A NEW GAME.
Tribes is dead. Evolve.
PS: I am very negative and cynical.
