    I'd respect his attempt at a "newscast" more if he had managed to complete it in one take...

    If they screw up skiing like they did in Tribes: Vengeance then it'll bomb with the old-school players like T:V did. Skiing wasn't a "feature" for T1. Players just worked out their own skill for reducing their friction while sliding across terrain. T2 kept that aspect even though the devs were aware of how skiing was being used, they didn't mess with it as a game mechanic. A new developer picked up the production rights for Tribes: Vengeance and totally screwed it up by implementing auto-skiing as a feature. Sure, that lowered the bar for new players to get in a few shots on the veterans from T1/T2 but on the other hand it alienated every old-school player that worked to build that up as a required skill.

    I don't know if the guy in that YouTube video is legit or not. And I really don't care all that much. PlanetSide was a similar genre to what this guy was talking about and it enjoyed some success ...for a monthly fee. But as far as a "Tribes 3," it definatly existed on the UT2003 engine (not UT2004) and was named "Tribes: Vengeance."

    Omg....seriously enough with these posts. This is about 3 weeks old news now. Why does everyone come on the forums claiming they've got "news" that Tribes Universe is coming out when we already know?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Err, how can we possibly have a T4 if there is no T3?

    I know it's hard, but just let the tread die.

    If you want technicalities for "Tribes 3" there is Tribes Aerial Assault for PS2 and Tribes 4 would be Tribes Vengeance.

    i think the engine used and api employed for grafix is what killed tv, both of wich will be reemployed for t4
