Tribes has some great maps, and then it has some maps that make me wonder what on earth someone was thinking when they made it. Just about every map that utterly randomly has massive underground tunnel systems for the bases fits into that category for me. Now I'm not saying I don't love those impossible to police tunnels…

Anytime you're in the enemy base start putting beacons on important things. People tend to destroy beacons so if one suddenly dissapears it's a reasonable assumption that whatever turret you stuck it next to has just been repaired. Also: never underestimate deployable cameras. One of those somewhere sneaky and you can…

And this is because the sticker said disposable or because he did not clean something he stuck in his EYE

If the colors are just off can't you just load it up in a player that lets you edit Hue/Sat while the vid's going and play with that?
-
It's not a classic server, therefore it's part of Qing's conspiracy to kill tribes2 and it's his solemn duty as the only true fan of the one true tribes2 to be as mean as possible to counteract the "coddling" we get from playing base or anything other than classic and it's derivatives. Read his webpage sometime, it's very…

No, not as long as certain schools of thought which require as a part of their fundamental nature the constant broadcasting of their adherants superiority and the likewise constant insistence of everyone else's inferiority and deliberate persecution of said adherants are allowed to continue harassing the members of these…

OH I see, you're one of those people who thinks things like SHOOTING AT THE ENEMY is lame and should be banned. If you want to help newbs start people migrating back to base where the game is entirely and wholly centered around offense and flying through cap cycles at Mach Fuck.
-
1600x1200, same problem. I don't think the game scales things correctly beyond 1024x768, should be relatively easy to fix though.
-
There's already a high-res player texture pack out and lord knows the game's moddable enough, why not just make some more highres packs and add in some more eye candy particles? [edit] And while we're at it just force everyone's brightness up to maximum, call it Bloom, and they'll think they're playing TF2 or FF in the…

Again classic or base and how many people can fly a shrike at max speed all the time? it's suicide to run around with no shields on that thing.
-
Again why is that lame? Does shooting a deployable turret instead of anything else magically make it more lame?
-
Classic or tribes2? Vehicles actually have a use in base but classic's got most people moving at Mach Fuck by default so it's presumably easier to outrun a shrike in that.
-
Why is disc-sniping lame in pubs? Not my fault people don't have the common sense to move when they see the Great Fiery Frisby coming from afar.
-
bunnyhop, tap the forwards key in the right rhythm, stop moving when people look towards you... there's plenty of ways to cloak intelligently. Running right up to my face isn't one of them and I'm not cheating when I see you mr. "this is like tf2 in the future!"
-
Theoretically it would be possible to have pretty ugly multi-monitor support by hacking the game to run at a resolution equivalent to the two screens added together (2624x1200 for me for example) and shoving the CC to being open with PJ's commander hud or somesuch script at the coordinates of your second screen. The trick…

Idunno, maybe you're one of those people with an irrational hatred for Mr. Flashy Von Bouncenzot? Or perhaps one of those wierd people that like playing 5v5 games with nobody on defense (or one token guy) because it "simulates" a larger match. It's not so useful outdoors but any enclosed flagstand it's pretty hilarious how…
-
Tribes1 and 2 were both released as freeware a bit before T:V was released and afaik they're both still on fileplanet so yeah.
-
PJ's hudmover, his site's still up.
-
Forget the minedisc, pull a sudden stop and shocklance it in the ass when he turbo's past you. He'll either regain control around a week away from his base or he'll flip over and suddenly be a very confused and low-health light.
-
Yes, this. Exactly this. Every player on D should have a chaingun and the instant the flag gets off the stand it needs to be revving up. Even 3 people with chainguns can and will blast someone right out of the air in short order. Blaster flak is also frighteningly effective at dealing with incoming cappers, ~3-4 people…
-
I wonder if anyone made more hi-res skins.
-
Woopsy. You were saying Blakhart?
-
Mousemod was always my favorite actually, I had more patience to sit still for ~5 minutes without dropping mines or taking a backlance and having a constant feed on what's happening in the enemy base can be surprisingly helpful. Plus those 3 heavies suddenly getting flashed and ELFed right as our O showed up tended to help.
-
Probably because most people I've talked to automatically filter bots entirely, or anything over some small number (5 for me), and personally once I see a single fake playercount that doesn't match a bot count I ignore that server forever. yeah I always thought shieldpacks were fairly imba since the blaster just didn't cut…
