You were wrong you never explained it to me. I never read the thread up to that point. So, you were telling me, you were telling everyone and expected everyone to read it.
Haha!! |

Big pappa... Do you know if there will be flying vehicles? I only see land vehicles... Thats cool that you got to play it =) Sounds cool.. I heard something about making mods easier to in Tribes 3? I would like to know whats happening with that too. Thats all. Thanks
I have heard nothing about vehicles, im sure they will have flying vehicles. I think they had some concept art with flying vehicles. The Devs are pretty hush hush about that.

This game is going to rock T2.
Not only did they get rid of the most useless weapon ever, but they balenced the simplest weapon ever.
I hope to try a Beta of it on my new rig at UVA6, if they have one that is.
I have no doubt in the Unreal Engine, if any fo you have played Unreal 2 XMP, you'll see it has huge maps and potential for ones even bigger.
This is going to be one hell of a game. Eat you're heart out you Lancing Cockbites, hopefully they don't replace it with some other lame weapon that will be like a llama magnet just like the SL.

Nasty Traitorous Sketcheh.
I thought you were pro-shocklance?
The shocklance is honestly one of my favorite parts of T2. That is my one apprehension about T:V. I figure I'll get used to it after awhile, but I'll miss it.
And I contest it's label as "cheap", but thats just me.

Heh, used to, but...
CG > SL anyday.
I never said it was cheap, I said it was for nubs.
Oh, XMP + T2 > *

I think the shocklance would be a lot more fun if its shots carried a lot more momentum. So if you don't kill them, you still stand a good chance of knocking them off a cliff. You know, something like a really powerful cattle prod. If you don't kill em, they're still gonna jump 10 feet in the air, run around in circles, then dive butt first into the first puddle of water they see.
I've been watching too many cartoons.

Perhaps you are confusing the cattle prod with the butt prod?

No Mouse, they're both the same thing. You just are using yours in an inappropriate manner.

I'll tell you why this game will blow chunks...32 players max. Thats all the engine will allow. So those gigantic maps we're used to now will not be quite as much fun, cuz we'll have half the guys.

seriously? only 32 players? There's some major suckage. There are exactly 4 things that make Tribes a unique (and better) experience compared to other fps games:
1. 3rd degree of movement via jet pack
2. interesting weapons that aren't simply bullets
3. huge rolling landscapes
4. capability of having more players on than any other games.
Without number 4, number 3 is useless because the landscapes aren't populated enough. Without number 3, you don't really need skiing and jetting because the terrain isn't as open. And as long as you've gotten rid of 1, 3, and 4, you might as well go and play Unreal 2 or Doom 3.

Did any of you guys ever play BarrysWorld UberGame CTF? It was 50 on 50 base CTF. OMG you think it's hectic on CPA? Try playing Minotaur with 99 other people. It used to be just insane.

They are using a very heavily moified version of the UT2k4 engine, eh?
I'm sure it will be possible to have lots of people playing. A lot of the devs are Tribes vets, and I like to hope that they know what makes Tribes, Tribes.

Yeah, sure MoW... their "hair".
Doubtless you've scrutinized the female skins quite closely 
ANYWAYS. You can edit the code to support as many players as you want. It's in the serverprefs.cs. However, what is being said is that T:V's engine will not be designed to support more than 32 clients. You can probably do it, but it's not recommended.

Well, except for the servers running mods for small communities like this (for the most part), most pub servers have a 30 player cap anyway.

Yeah, but one of the BIGGEST reasons we all love tribes is because of the large scale battles. Huge maps, many peeps= fun. Thats why halo isn't as good. I actually sent an email to the developers trying to tell them that. They all think its graphix that makes the games these days. It just makes me wanna hurl.

Historically, Tribes has not been an extremely graphics heavy game.
Fast movement = lots of ground covered = lots of things to render.
I believe the devs said they would continue this trend.
