Tribes Ascend - Finally shooters are GOOD again.

(1/17) > >>

Volatar:
Tribes Ascend is the sequel to the Tribes series from back in the day.

Take a shooter. Now make it science fiction. Now give everyone Jetpacks. Now make everyone fly through the air at 200 miles per hour. Now make every single weapon a projectile. Then make it free to play. You now have Tribes Ascend.

Just recently released, Sign up for free here. Yes, that is a referral link. It is mutually beneficial though, as we both get an XP bonus when you reach level 6. You don't get this bonus unless you use someones referral link. Don't you like free stuff?  ;D

Play. It. Now. It blows every other shooter you have ever played out of the water. I personally can't go back to games like TF2 and CoD anymore. They are just plain boring now.

Some links to get you started:

Tribes Ascend 101

Totalbiscut review. Skip to the gameplay though, as everything before that has changed so significantly since he made the video that he made a whole second video detailing said changes.

And some cool videos:

Focus
"Give me the Flag" - A Fan Trailer
Llama Island
Go Faster
Ascend to Glory

Been playing for a while now, Tribes is definitely quite a bit of fun, though it can be frustrating.  :)

Tribes Ascend is stupid fun! It has some balance issues still, but it's in beta, so that's expected. But I've been playing it almost every day for a few months now. Insanely fun.

Gallant Dragon:
My computer can only pull off 10 fps  :-[

I'll stick with TF2 for now.
