Just found out there's no observer mode.

Updated: Tribes Comparison Chart

I love the timing again, coming up in a season with games such as battlefield 3 and skyrim

**ArchangelX** · **7363** - 09-21-2011, 19:58

It's like history, repeating itself...only crappier.

**Aegis** · **7364** - 09-22-2011, 01:55

No observer mode? Don't most MP games have that? WTF

isnt that one of the reasons its delayed till 2012?

**starwolf_nexus** · **7366** - 09-22-2011, 02:04

god damn the mouthbreathers GA and HiRez attract... limit the game to appease Youtube. The stupid can't even be expressed with enough facepalm...

it would only be possible if you set off a nuclear bomb and face-palmed while the intense heat permanently burnt the shadow into cement.

If they are delaying it maybe its because they realize they have a bucket of **** right now and it needs massive work.

I can't think of a single game I'd look forward to more if I was confident about this. I'd be happy to wait 2-3 years if they don't **** it up.

So...
1. Tribes 1 physics. A physics system that allows insane speed and skill-moves.
2. Neat graphics.
3. Actual ****ing advertising.
4. Innovation to address the learning curve: Beginner maps and tutorials with achievements, rewards, a levelling system, whateverthe****, to encourage people to play long enough so they don't get instantly owned and rage quit.
5. A common sense release date.
6. Marketing towards skill-crazy korea/china etc with simple things like foreign voice acting, option to use anime skins or whatever.

Do all of that and it will be AT LEAST as popular as T1 (in modern terms), aka probably 2-5 million players.

I'm not holding my breath though, the disappointment will be too much to bear.

Never. Tribes is NOT mass market compatible.

**Nash** · **7372** - 09-23-2011, 03:16

So apparently that Hirez topic was deleted.
Damn... didn't get a chance to add my flavor to it

**Milk-Man** · **7373** - 09-23-2011, 03:45

What comes first? A second good tribes game or my death?

~wdeath

**groove** · **7374** - 09-23-2011, 03:53

**adrian ng** · **7375** - 09-23-2011, 04:46

Ok, Milk Man. Time to ****ING DIE

**Operon** · **7376** - 09-24-2011, 20:12

Not that anyone would want to sign up, but HiRez did change the registration page and got rid of the association with Global Agenda's in game nicks. It looks like it will accept numbers and maybe symbols now for the account name. I only used letters and numbers, but it worked.
