Sierra Cancels Tribes 2 "Fast Attack"
Posted: 08-03-02 11:08am Author: SuicideTaxi
Sierra reported to the "Tribes Council" (the group of community leaders currently attending the meeting at Sierra headquarters in Seattle) that Tribes 2 "Fast Attack", a title planned to be released some time next year as a follow-up to Tribes 2, has been officially cancelled by the company. Tribes 2 Brand Manager Alex "Marweas" Rodberg stated that the "Fast Attack" concept was "not the follow-up that Sierra wants to pursue for the Tribes franchise", but added "Although other Tribes titles are definitely planned."
Mr. Rodberg also stated that the upcoming "re-release" of Tribes 2 will include numerous new game types, maps, features, and technical updates, and will be available in stores for "something like 10 dollars." Mr. Rodberg stressed that although Tribes 2 will be "re-released", every feature available in the store-bought version will also be available to those who already own Tribes 2 by a free download through the Tribes 2 auto-update feature.
Although the announcement came as a surprise to many of the attendees of the Tribes Council, Mr. Rodberg reasoned that Sierra was not interested in dividing the current Tribes-playing community with yet another type of Tribes game, nor rehashing an already existing product (Tribes 2) with a spin on gameplay (Fast Attack).

From what I've gathered, ps2 was releasing a network adapter and fast attack was supposed to follow that. Can you imagine all the new problems that tribes2 would inhereit? You'd have to be some kind of astro-wing-ding-ologist, just to set-up a server that would support all that stuff. I think the tribes council needs to focus more on pushing sierra to get the current problems resolved, before adding more problems.
