Maybe the site was using old tribes pictures for the article you saw them in? | ||

tribes was the best FPS series of all time no other FPS that i can think of took nearly as much skill as tribes did. if you were good enough, you could take on 5 people at a time simply because you were that much better at aiming, dodging, and general tactics/decision making. And yet at the same time, good teamwork was rewarded heavily (especially in Tribes 2) i really cant wait to see how they make this game | ||

also an interview concerning the F2P model http://pc.ign.com/articles/117/1178865p1.html?_cmpid=ign1391 I'm personally a little iffy by what they mean to be "loadout" light, chaingun + spinfusor + grenade launcher was standard. would light, chaingun + spinfusor + elf be another loadout you have to buy? ._. | ||

The F2P part seems like it would kill the competitive aspect of the game ;/ You can't play on an even field when other people are getting 20% more energy from their packs and so on. A 'base' mod would have to be made(oh wait there is no client side modding) with only the minimum weapons/loadouts available, but then that could severely limit the options in competitive play. I don't see how this is gonna work without people getting furious over being beat because someone spent $10 on an upgrade they don't have. | ||

The physics could play a big part though so I'll have to wait and see on that.

I think the 20% more energy he might be referring to would be an alternate energy pack wherein instead of faster regen, you just have more energy at a burst interval when you need it. I'm thinking that they might have an option to "unlock" the game for a regular price like 50$ and you can still customize like normal back in T1 and T2 | ||

I remember playing Tribes 2 when I was in probably 5th or 6th grade. I played that game religiously. I've never had more fun with an FPS then I have with Tribes 2. I cannot wait for this. I hope they stick with the tribes 1/2 gameplay type rather than the tribes vengeance :o | ||

If you're getting furious over being beaten by someone who paid money for the game when you didn't, then you need to re-evaluate what makes you angry. You are playing the game for free. | ||
