The game is amazing and is truely the Unreal Tournament 2004 of this gen.

It shows what a PC built fps without any console setbacks in game design is capable of.

The game is better than Halo, CoD, Battlefield 3, and Resistance.

Truely the best fps this gen and superior to all console fps.

Tribes requires precision on a level consoles can't achieve.

Auto-aim would ruin the experience, half the fun of UT-esque games is planting a shot on a moving target by guessing trajectory.

Theres no way the fast paced gameplay will remain intact to make it akin UT2004 as the OP suggested. Its not even phsyically possible on controller.

This kind of FPS I support. Aswell as Half-Life 3 and Syndicate.

But FPSs like CoD and BF, that are always the same crap.. those get into my nerves.

The game was anoinced for the X360 in some form.

But I dont know how that will work. You are travelling at very high speeds and the way in which shooting and the projectile works requires you to fire ahead of your opponent to where you think they are going to be. Some projectiles even have falloff.

i own ut2k3 and ut2k3 and unreal championship 1#

unreal championship 1# was kinda cooler because each character had their own abilities like robots jump high,gen mo kai run fast,juggernaut can take alot of damage,demons got health after u killed someone and each spawned with different weapons.

I played a couple games last night, its a lot of fun, very interesting movement mechanics. Weapons have a good feel to them, and it looks reasonably good (maybe a little drab on the maps I played on). Plays very well for a free 2 play game, especially considering its still in beta.

I don't see why it wouldn't work on consoles. I guess the aiming would be a bit wonky.

Saying its the best FPS this gen is impossible at this point. Maybe 5 years down the road if its still really popular and what not, but right now, in closed beta, its impossible to make that determination.

It's not coming for the 360 anymore. The F2P model for the PC version effectivly killed the console version.

They've also increased the speed of which it plays and removed all hitscan weapons. It would play like ass with a controller. Like Quake 3 with a controller level of ass.

Well, that's ashame for them, even though I could only see the console players focusing on flag caps and generator assaults if the general field combat sucked for pads.

Agreed, getting a flag and trying to get it back to your base while a bunch of players are following and shooting at your heels is damn exciting. Some of the most gratifying kills I have had this gen are in this game. Getting someone mid-air with a spinfusor is just awesome. Or taking out a squad of 3-4 on your own is pretty damn gratifying too. The only other MP game this gen that gave me genuinely gartifying kills was CoD4, and that was only when I managed to take out large squads on my won w/o dying while using an AK or an M4.

Yeah, it's good, unlocked the DommBringer with tokens the other day (Payed $0 so far, play to buy the "pre-order") And it's loads of fun. Shame I don't the the 2 extra beta jeys for some of you guys. I think they have this thing going on right now that if you like them on Facebook you get a key, but that could have expired.

Is it that great? I got my beta invite some time ago but haven't tried it yet.

Never would've expected this kind of thing from Hi-Rez. Only played Global Agenda and that was kinda good.

If you ask me, it's better and more polished than BF3s MP and a more PC centric shooter overall.

There are some things that need work and Hi-Rez are very receptive to feedback, but It's really, really great.

Truely the best fps this gen and superior to all console fps.

Okay, how about actually providing reasons instead of conclusions? I'm a PC gamer but seriously this isn't an argument and I have no idea what tribes is or why it's good and I already don't care because of your terrible post.

I've been playing it. Its ok. It has the same graphical glitches that have bugged me from global agenda, like the slow loading in of high-rez textures. And the graphics while good, are nothing to rage about. I dunno how to explain it, but it feels like the characters and the world doesnt have mass, like its just hollow paper folded into shapes. I know that doesnt make sense, but thats how the whole graphical style feels to me...it doesnt feel like it could be a real planet with real soldiers. The gameplay is ok, I would give it a 7.5. Its fun enough but nothing to write home about. Will have to wait and see how the game evolves.

It is still a closed beta so I am sure that the graphical glitches will be ironed out over time. The one that annoys me is the texture loading glitch when you switch weapons. Other than that the game imo looks great, nice and vibrant colors and a pretty good art style. As for your other issue, uh I honestly dont know what you are trying to say with that. The one problem (or slight annoyance) I have with the game from a game play perspective is the map sizes. They are a bit too small for a game where your character moves so fast. One can go from one end of the map to the other in around 20 seconds (say Katabatic, based on the Olympian flag capture times that I have had). I remember the original Tribes and Tribes 2 maps being bigger overall (although T2 had this one map, cant remember the name but there was always a lot of lightning and there was a really tall building, and that map was super small)

I got a Beta code, gamespot was giving away 5000, likely they still have more though I can't remember the link. It's a fun game so far, framerate is all over the place for me (graphics are okay though), probably fixed in the final game.

AcidSoldner

Actually, I think the Free to Play model is going to keep it alive. The game seems to pretty balanced so far so fighting someone who bought the classes isn't a big deal when the default twinfusor can effectively kill them.

F2P also means people will be playing it after release. *looks at Brink and Serious Sam 3*

F2P also means people will be playing it after release. *looks at Brink and Serious Sam 3*

Spinfusor* True, though the F2P model is completely different than what we normaly think it would be. buying all the classes basically costs $50-$60 but at the same time, so it would be the price of a normal game anyway. And don't even bother with "premium" as all it does is allow you to get XP faster rigth now (and tokens, but if you bought all classes, tokesn are useless). And XP gain is pretty fast already.

[QUOTE="II_Seraphim_II"]I've been playing it. Its ok. It has the same graphical glitches that have bugged me from global agenda, like the slow loading in of high-rez textures. And the graphics while good, are nothing to rage about. I dunno how to explain it, but it feels like the characters and the world doesnt have mass, like its just hollow paper folded into shapes. I know that doesnt make sense, but thats how the whole graphical style feels to me...it doesnt feel like it could be a real planet with real soldiers. The gameplay is ok, I would give it a 7.5. Its fun enough but nothing to write home about. Will have to wait and see how the game evolves.jonathant5
It is still a closed beta so I am sure that the graphical glitches will be ironed out over time. The one that annoys me is the texture loading glitch when you switch weapons. Other than that the game imo looks great, nice and vibrant colors and a pretty good art style. As for your other issue, uh I honestly dont know what you are trying to say with that. The one problem (or slight annoyance) I have with the game from a game play perspective is the map sizes. They are a bit too small for a game where your character moves so fast. One can go from one end of the map to the other in around 20 seconds (say Katabatic, based on the Olympian flag capture times that I have had). I remember the original Tribes and Tribes 2 maps being bigger overall (although T2 had this one map, cant remember the name but there was always a lot of lightning and there was a really tall building, and that map was super small)

Yeah i know my second complaint is hard to understand. its just a personal gripe with the artstyle, not sumthing one should take into account when choosing whether or not to play the game since its a very biased personal opinion. But yeah the graphical glitches need a lil tuning up. the game is pretty good though.

It's alright, nothing earth shattering.
