Game is so dead, it doesn't help that the server list doesn't refresh properly so instead of seeing 3 servers with people playing you can only see 2.

i agree and i've said this before, but communication with the community has always been lacking and i think its an intentional decision. they've repeatedly said 'we're reading just not responding' and that's a bad way to deal with the people that you want to spend money imo. makes communication feel very ... one way (and pointless)
like, if a friend and I were at a coffee shop chatting, and they never responded to anything i say, i'm eventually gonna stop talking. they might be listening, but without a reply, it comes off as selfish, rude and disrespectful, and eventually im gonna give up trying to communicate with that person.
also '5 to 15 fps' is a strange way to measure FPS gains, as its always relative. if you get 144 fps, 5fps aint shit. if you get 20 fps, a 15 fps gain is huge. odd that cobryis would put it that way instead of saying something like 'a 5 to 15% fps gain'
but i dont want to say that to them, because they might point at it and say 'ermagerd i responded and ppl criticized me for using a pointless measurement of fps' and use it as an excuse to not respond to other stuff in the future
and that's how you end up in a place where both sides have given up on communication

I was taking notes here and there for 3 days or so, but it only really took me two days to write this, one of them being a work day.
I type and think very fast, and I really enjoyed making it. I can't play Tribes no more cus there is no Tribes, so I enjoy looking for other Tribes activities to engage in.
You all burning dozens of hours of wasted time on games every week, so... not sure why you judging. I don't have very much free time, so I like to spend it on activities that help me relax, Tribes essay being one of them. I love Tribes.
Seemingly, it's awkward for me to spend a few days of wasted effort on essay, but entirely fine for Archetype devs to spend 700 days on wasted failure game.
This is racism against essay writers.
Wut, you said your flight was 8 hours. Is this composition too short for you?
You were one of the 10+ people that put me up to this, so I suppose I can lengthen it upon request.
You a good dude Slush.
I mean, every time I'm playing this game people in global chat type in stuff like "They need to set the generators back to the way they were in T2."
Pretty much every single person playing realizes the game is busted.
Just reinforces what I wrote about the developers not listening and telling you what you should enjoy.
10/10 post. Entirely agree.
Devs don't listen. They don't care... they making cloaky pack game, etc...
Even noobs know their game needs huge help.
I was pretty shocked to see them give new players the boost pack by default over energy regen. You're gimping them from the very start. Shame. Fuck unlocks in a Tribes game.

Tpk i agree in nearly all your points only thing im skeptical on is your point of reference on LT
Fair opinion from an old schooler but LT helped prolong t1 it was so fast and fun and tbh i ended up loving it more than base
It also fits the modern speed of gaming being so fast
Id love to hear groove state his opinons on LT but i guess we save the t1 talk for another thread
Tpk i <3 you man

Honestly I just wish people would stop talking about this fucking shitstain of a "game" and let it dissolve into obscurity much quicker. Every time you bring this crapheap up again it just allows it to survive that much longer.
Make them learn from this giant mistake. Stop feeding it.
*edit* LT did nothing for "extending the game". It allowed people who were completely shit at base have a chance at playing the game. As far as it being "faster" it was not. You merely spawned with more ability. Real base players could spawn and get things done without going to an inventory with minimal issues. It's called versatility. Which LT stripped from tribes.

It's really a shame that there's not 17 years worth of custom UI designs to pull ideas from.
