Tribes: Bengeance!
- New maps with trees as far as the eyes can see! (These trees will be skiiable in order to offset the processor power they will eagerly consume like the carbon dioxide we exhale.)
- Indigenous wildlife that can be either killed or consumed for a health bonus or that can snack on an unlucky capper who screws up his route in the middle of a river during peak crocodile hour! (Be careful not to kill endangered species, or your team will be fined capture points!)
- Four times the taunts of UT2K4! Eight pages of voicebind insults to belittle your opponent while flying through the air at hundreds of miles per hour!
- Everyone gets a lightsaber, a Shoryuken, a Duke's Mighty Foot kick, and customizable hairdos, earrings, and other accessories that can be won be defeating other players online! Deck Jericho out with a Viking beard, a mohawk and a belt of scalps, or mow down other players as Julia with rocket-powered go-go boots, a solid gold Egyptian brooch, and an afro the size of the moon!
- Last but not least, naked pictures of Julia for EVERYBODY! Free bonus disc with over half a gig of our little Julie in her birthday suit! (Kids, ask your parents' permission before bolting into the bathroom with a laptop to behold her Imperial majesty, if you catch my drift.)
This whole "newbie" schtick is lame. Claiming that every change that you don't understand is for "newbies" just shows your ignorance. If you want to explain why you think something is a bad idea, feel free. Crying "newbie" every time is just stupid.Wulfen said:Yeah, apparently the newbie crowd has to be pointed where to go too, or they might run for miles in the wrong direction. : \
Fraggy Poo said:I'm for cutting out the health kit, for exactly the reasons mentioned by the devs. This game needs a big audience, we NEED newbies, or Tribes will die, simple as that.
That being said, you should have a taunt that says something like "Eat my burnination" or something to the burninating effect.
I don't know. I can test it, but it will all change by the time we ship. Damage and health will both be adjusted as we move forward in testing. I'll try it tho...jsut said:Thrax, how much damage would a full DJ do to a medium?
Crom said:thrax man, i hope i didn't cause you too much of a headache...
i never expected a 15 pg. thread out of this...
you shoulda made me sign an NDA :rofl:
SilentDeath said:all in all this is turning out good, although i am a bit worried about map size but i guess i'll have to wait and see on the beta
Theta said:E is the pack, Q is the?
knuckle said:Actually, i believe that the Q item is the pack, and the E item is one of the mentioned repair patches.
I agree in one aspect--SC has a much higher skill ceiling.ZProtoss said:Making a game easier for new players is *not* always better in the long run. To prove that all you have to do is look at SC v War3. SC was unbelievably hard for new players to even come 1/1000th as close as touching some of the best in the game. However that very same diversity gave SC its amazing longevity at all levels of skill. With War3 blizz took the simplify everything to a ridiculous amount approach, and while war3 was successful (the blizz name is to thank for many, *many* of the sales), the game has had much less success in online longevity than SC had. Because everything was simplified so much.
