Tribes is the most skillful FPS you will ever play. Those who hate it usually never play it long enough to get even moderately skilled as they are greatly turned off by being owned by average players despite being a decent FPS player in other games. It's a game that take a lot of practice and some people get really good while other end up moderately good even with a lot of practice. Tribes is a completly unique FPS and there never has nor likely never will be anything like it. I've played since Tribes 1 where I played with all the mods, shifter, renegades, and the countless others but never played competitively then (sure wished I had). I bought T2 within days of it's release and I even was fortunete enough to find a place on what was to me, the most legendary clan of the game - Clan Draconus Lupus -CDL-. Competitive play is a world unto itself and takes it toll in time. Combined with a highly aggressive and hostile community with very divided viewpoints, many players lost the love of playing in that environment - but most have not lost the love of playing the game itself. It's not the games fault, but the Tribes experience has been ruined by the nature of its community for many, myself included. It still remains to be one of my favorite games for years now, and I'm sure for years in the future with the continuing evolution of the game in Tribes Vengence. If you are looking for quick satisfaction, Tribes isn't your game but if you want a true challange of skill, tactics, and teamwork, Tribes is a hell of a game.

bah, i'm just a night shift worker.

T2 owns, we should crash a server some time, someone find one.

Kam · 2004-05-11, 04:52 PM

How can anyone here say Tribes 2 sucks when PS was modeled off of it? Tribes 3 will own you all very soon.

BTW I still play T2 and it still owns. The War2003 mod is the best.

Hamma · 2004-05-11, 05:57 PM

I really see nothing of tribes in PS

Kam · 2004-05-11, 06:01 PM

Are you serious? I'm not even going to explain how wrong that is. PS is T2 with about 100 times the players on one server. They are compared by professional sites for god�s sake. The dev team could learn a lot from the T2 dev team too, like how to patch correctly.

So you're saying this is not a professional site?

All I can see in PS that is in Tribes 2 is the gens and well that's it.

Dharkbayne · 2004-05-11, 07:10 PM

Tribes 2 and Planetside have almost nothing in common.

Kam · 2004-05-11, 07:38 PM

WHA??? You can't argue it. It is fact. Period. The PS devs DID use T2 as a model. It is true, I don't see how your can argue that. It was even discussed long before PS came out. Did you actually think they made it from scratch? Email a dev if you want, they will tell you what I just did. It amazes me that people don't know that.

It has nothing to do with the skins or models. I'm talking about the engine that it was built on, how the coding works, and the technical aspect of the game.

And yes, this is not a professional site. A professional site is one owned by a major company; it has nothing to do with the contents of said site.
