I am very hopeful actually. Any news of a tribes release is big news for me.
Tribes is far and away the best game I have ever played in my life and I will be hopeful about anything being announced as a "tribes" game with "skiing" in it.
Am I going to build myself up for a massive disappointment? No, but I will always believe that there will be a good chance.
T:V may have been junk, but I even enjoyed that for a little while. Just cus it's tribes.
I checked out videos of Global Agenda and it seems the company is clearly capable of making successful releases.
I suck so hard at Starcraft 2, and it has been SOOooo long since I have played Tribes, so I am looking forward to laying the hurt down on all you guys again. ;D
I'm even looking forward to getting banned by you, and getting killed by your autoaim cheese burners, your missile launchers, and any other noob cannons they let you have Vir.
Frighteningly enough, I actually found myself agreeing with most all of what you said in this thread. Mainly that this franchise needs new life. I will take whatever I can get.
It is a decade later, and I am ready for something new. If it means that I will be opening up a can of hurt on a new generation of young gamers, all the more satisfying.
For all we know, this game could actually be the salvation the tribes community has been waiting for... We might find out very soon.
