>hirez
No, frick you.
This is all I needed to know. Frick them forever for just flatout killing the last one to focus on a forgettable MOBA game or whatever was the latest trend they missed the boat on.
This is apparently a dev that split from Hi-Rez and took Tribes with them, but I can't seem to get a straight answer on if they're still affiliated.
I've heard they're a "sister studio", I've heard they're a subsidiary, I've heard they're fully independent, all at the same time in the places.
They've still got the Made in Georgia intro stuff, so they at the very least didn't move far.
>but I can't seem to get a straight answer on if they're still affiliated.
Bro just google their name and check their website
https://www.prophecygames.com/
>Prophecy Games was founded in late 2019 as a studio within the Hi-Rez Studios umbrella. In the early months of 2020, we officially spun off from Hi-Rez as a fully independent studio.
They are also located in the same city as HiRez according to their career's page.
I've seen that, but I've also seen people in their discord refer to it is as a "sister studio".
Hopefully that's just an informal "we're still on good terms with the people but they have no say in what we do" sort of thing.
Good question.
https://esportsadvocate.net/2023/06/hi-rez-ventures/
Seems that in 2023 they restructured into HiRez ventures with three distinct business units: Titan Forge Games, Evil Mojo Games, and RallyHere Interactive. This makes me think that since they didn't mention Prophecy Games that they are indeed completely separate.
Their LinkedIn page for Prophecy Games lists Erez Goran as the founder of Prophecy Games, HiRez, and some other. What I gather is that Prophecy Games is completely separate at this point, and is considered a sister company because it was founded by the same guy. Probably similar board members and other investors, as well, that we don't see for a privately owned company.
The guy who fricked T:A is also the lead of the studio.
It sounds like Hi-Rez trying to distance themselves from their horrible reputation to trick people into trusting them again
I won't fall for it
Why don't they play someone who knows how to move and shoot a little?
>5v5 priority
>$20 but still has mtx
Lame, but the movement looks good to me
We are so fricking back
its so strange because the movement and animations look fantastic, but for fricks sake why 5v5, why the small maps. i need my big rolling tropical map with 16v16
Get an ad, hirez.
I did the playtest last night, here are my quick impressions
>movement mostly feels good, but it could be a little snappier
>5v5 is not enough people to have fun
>maps are not big enough
>the radar is annoying. I can literally see everyone on the map when I'm in the air, there's no point.
>no VGS. They need add this ASAP.
shill
yeah let's talk about trans people instead
No HiRez = no buy
>No HiRez = no buy
but they always abandon their games
There's not a studio out there that treats their paying customers nicer than HiRez. T:A was the prime example of that.
>they always abandon their games
Every game has a lifespan. It's a natural thing.
>Every game has a lifespan. It's a natural thing.
It's only natural when the fans stop playing it. When devs give up support when fans are still playing it only because they want to support their new MOBA is not the same thing.
>No HiRez = no buy
HiRez is awful, I'm actually relieved to hear it's not their game
>ascend babby acting like he wasnt the problem
Looks like shit.
>5v5 matchmaking
Pure garbage. Not even going to bother.
Why the frick does the movement look like it's been drugged with sedatives? There's no velocity loss and the whole thing just looks SLOW.
Heavy armour
The skiing is different. There's some sort of a boost from standstill and and magnetism when skiing. They're experimenting with different physics.
All I'm seeing is a player completely failing at skiing but still maintaining speed no matter what.
>They're experimenting with different physics.
So basically they're turning the game into even worse shit than Ascend ended up being. Way to encourage people to play this garbage.
Oh wow. Even in Ascend slamming yourself onto a horizontal surface like that would eat up all your velocity, as it should. This game is dead on arrival.
The jetpack also gives too much acceleration when going up. This is particularly visible in the first video of the medium class
>dead on arrival
Then you're free to go and play your cod, basebuilding shit, shitroyale, autistic strike, survival or whatever the frick game you wanna play
I want to play good online FPS games, which is why I won't play any of those, and why I won't under any circumstances play this fricking joke of a Tribes game.
I hope you're being paid to shill this garbage and aren't actually a dev on the team.
>at 0:14-0:15 lands flat in the middle of the water and doesn't even slow down
What the frick is this game supposed to be?
speed was reduced by 15km/h
i kinda like that, just keeps you moving. ya ya i know it reduces the skill needed to skii effectively but if they just make the boost a bit less it would be fine
back for another round of pathfinder players being entitled b***hes and ruining the game. sick
Why do the graphics look WORSE than Tribes Ascend?
tbh they look pretty much the same, just run a lot worse
>5v5
lol
lmao even
muh competitive gameplay
just imagine we're in 2014 or something
Who are they even making the game for? I think it has been proven that this doesn't work. No one remembers T1 or TA for "epic" 5v5s or esports. Midair even failed after only 1 week trying to go esports.
this game was #1 on Ganker for a little while, that didn't happen because no one was interested or because it sucked.
>5v5
What the frick
Tribes was a mass multiplayer game.
I remember playing on 100 player servers in 1999
How the frick can devs not make one good game anymore?
Anybody reviving these zombies only cares about copying the current trend instead of trying something from before they were even out of diapers
My interest is completely dead. Sick of fricking small squad competitive game modes. I miss large scale battles and fun combat frick this gay industry.
kek lowrez really blew it up again with their poor communication
I know, right? The vast majority of Tribes "fans," including the people in this thread, are massive posers who refuse to touch any of the games nowadays and instead just latch onto Ascend specifically to participate in Ganker culture. Expecting to get 10 people into a match is ludicrous. They should design for 1v1 so there's actually a chance for matches to be full.
modern fps games can't survive without le epic esports scene to motivate all the ritalin fueled kids to keep playing a game for more than 5 minutes.
it's either that or a battlepass and i don't want a battlepass in this game.
how is it 2023 and this keeps happening... is nertwork programming a lost art? did everybody retire?
Is this bait? I don't know which homosexual game started this 4v4/5v5 shit, but I fricking hate it. It's objective fact that 64v64 is the pinnacle of gaming.
Supposedly it's gonna have "up to" 32v32, but I'll be surprised if it even gets 16v16. The way Erez phrased it makes it obvious they'll try to wiggle out of it eventually.
Halo did it. Halo 2's online modes were mostly 4v4, except for big team battle which was 8v8.
I played a a metric frickton of Halo 2 in high school and must've wiped that from my memory. Though I guess most of the time was LAN or BTB.
Shabbat, fellow Tribal!
i laughed harder than i should
Tribes is like comparing NASCAR to rally. Yes your speed is fast but you're really not doing frick all so that km/h ends up being the only fast thing there is.
these games look so moronic
they're fun as frick and being able to move at 100 mph while you shoot off your pursuers behind you and communicate with your team all at once blows normals shooters out of the fricking water. I can't even understand how people look at videogames and think "oh yeah I want to be a normal soldier in a normal battle with a normal gun we need that shit"
ive never seen a more artificial post than this one except in gachashit threads
Wtf are these hitbox ?
The explosion radius seems to be xboxhueg
Just wait until you see someone post the Medium's grenade launcher.
Flying above someone and spamming that shit on them feels like LARPing as a B52 dropping its payload, it's egregious. Fun when you're the one doing it, though.
Their playtesters are the most drooling moron candy crush casuals around.
They always complain when movement is "too fast" and projectiles are "too slow" and thats how shit like the plasma cannon makes it into the game.
Yeah this game is dead on arrival
No normie wants to try and calculate shit to hit shots like this
you don't calculate, you fire a hundred of them and then you just feel where you need to aim. you use the force. projectile leading is the greatest joy in all FPS, be it rockets in Quake 3 / Live, sniping in Battlefield 2 (both zero inheritance) or the 100% inheritance spinfusors in Tribes and grenades in CSGO.
changed netcode and physics stuff -> only one mode could get enough polish to be ready for testing so soon.
>you don't calculate, you fire a hundred of them and then you just feel where you need to aim. you use the force. projectile leading is the greatest joy in all FPS, be it rockets in Quake 3 / Live, sniping in Battlefield 2 (both zero inheritance) or the 100% inheritance spinfusors in Tribes and grenades in CSGO.
Normies can't do this
yes they can. normies love ball sports irl. this is the same thing, just on a computer screen.
Not sure if you've noticed but most normies can barely throw a ball either
most spergs are worse at throwing a ball than most normies so whom are you even representing? can't be spergs which is what I assumed.
>100% inheritance spinfusors in Tribes
50% gang rise up
crater and stay down. partial inheritance is full evil. inheritance is an all or nothing deal. both extremes work, the spectrum inbetween sucks.
>t. shitter with no intuition
moronic zoomers say things like this while the reality is that hitscan weapons ruin these games
>calculate
thats not the issue
the issue is normalgays play on controller and kids play on their phones
the controls arent good enough for them to even start to land shots like this
this is a hit, and it's not even a heavy Spinfusor
What's this about 5v5? Is it the only mode it has?
For now in this test it's just 5v5, but they've committed to having up to 64 player games.
I think that's part of why the base interiors are empty, but turrets aren't on a generator system. They'll probably add generators and more base defenses as the "secondary objectives" in larger games/maps.
It's the game mode they're focusing on as in on balance and maps. The game will support larger teams but there's talk about having the "community" create those game modes, whatever that means. I'm getting flasbacks of TA mapping and modding tools that never came. So classic Hirez bs and poor communication.
I hope hope their futile chase for epsorts doesn't kill the game. There will be people want to play this "competitively" but it will not be on Counter Strike's level.
looks dead on arrival
if it's not dead on arrival it'll be dead within 6 months max
That's 6 more months of Tribes than I thought I'd get this side of 2012, so I don't give a shit.
fair
5v5...why
It's only currently 5v5 on two maps for these tests, but they said they'll be expanding it up to 24v24 eventually.
Bless you for diving deeper than my lazy ass, cheers.
>5v5
LMAO the fpsz community just keeps shooting itself in the foot. They want the genre popular again but only release muh competitive games, that aren't even good enough to be competitive.
What the frick, doa
the 5v5 is only for the alpha test, they plan on adding modes with increased player counts later
When are developers going to realize that compgays are the minority?
They want to hold a big event that gets big named sponsors and advertisers. Random anon playing by himself, not even streaming the game, isn't going to generate them money like those compgays.
I don't hate 5v5.
I do hate that spinfusor reload animation and that the very first thing you see in this video is godawful TAA blur.
It's not just TAA blur, it's TAA plus some butt-ugly default Unreal motion blur.
Turned that shit off immediately in the playtest, then swapped AA modes.

Was Tribes ever fun? Because this looks boring and so did Tribes Ascend. Don't really get the appeal, especially compared to old UT and Quake.
There is stuff you can do in Tribes that just isn't possible in other games.
Tribes 1 and 2 were a lot more fun than UT and Quake honestly. the big maps and variety of strategies made it a blast
I expected nothing, and I'm still impressed by just how garbage it is. Looks like it runs like absolute shit, constant frame drops.
>Recommended GPU: RTX 2080
jfc, it looks less appealing than ascend to me
lmfao it actually looks worse than Tribes
this game is FRICKED
That's fricking crazy, a $1000+ GPU while TA rec was GTX560, a $150 GPU
A 4060 is as good as a 2080 and costs a fraction of the price.
Yeah, it actually does, the lowest quality they let you set the game to is "medium" and it already looks worse than T:A while running worse. No option to lower render scale too. I was struggling to keep even 40fps when I can easily run OW2 and TF2 both with 120+
I was honestly gob-smacked seeing the gameplay video. It honest to God looks, at best, on par, or even WORSE than T:Ascend. On top of that I can just tell the game looks like it runs like absolute pig shit.
Also, former/current dev, are you still here? is it true the game has only had like a month worth of dev time?
that would confirm my theory that this is T:A ported to a new Unreal version, an overhaul of sorts.
that would explain the amount of TA assets in use
If that's the case, then why is it only 5v5?
my favorite shit from the old Tribes games wasn't capture the flag. it was the large battles and fortifying bases with walls and forcefields and terrets. using radar jammers to sneak in and blow stuff up on a huge frantic scale.
now tribes 3 has 5v5 capture the flag and they don't even know if they'll do other game modes. idk. i like the series and CTF is fun but its not the most interesting part
that's kind of why ascend worked so well at first imo. back when a heavy could have two shields up while the engi had two turrets and mines everywhere. it made for gen def/off play really really fun.
they should take a page from old star wars battlefront. in normal battles you just try to murder ALL of the other soldiers and "reinforcements" (limited number of respawns). in space battles the goal was to royally frick up the other ship by bombing it to frick or balling in and blasting systems on the inside
What did Tribes do to deserve this kind of periodical raping.

there's on CRITICALLY IMPORTANT detail they need to understand.
>RED TEAM SHOOTS RED SPINFUSOR
>BLUE TEAM SHOOTS BLUE SPINFUSOR
that's it, easy, nothing else
also the thing that killed Tribes: Ascend was its business model. People will b***h about most unlock systems, but the "pay money for straight upgrade that's unbalanced or broken" (free blue plates with plasma launcher only 4.99) drove a lot of people away
The unlock system being a cancerous grind was a problem. First things were only connected to class loadout so the amount of tokens to unlock a class was crazy. You basically got Ranger/Soldier and had to unlock everything else, with the first one or two being cheap to unlock but then after that it became so expensive that you might as well pay. Then they made it generic "light/medium/heavy" loadouts that you customize. That was really when they went all in on releasing new versions of weapons that were straight upgrades for money. You could "earn" new the straight upgrade versions of the weapons through gameplay, but the grind was absolutely absurd so it might as well have been only been pay money.
I remember the only shit grind for me was some of the higher-level weapons.
I thought the zig-zag dance meta was kind of lame and I'm actually excited to see if dodge boost shakes it up
>higher-level weapons
The "higher-level weapons" were just re-skins of previous weapons that would do things like increase direct damage of a spinfusor but have a smaller splash range, which is objectively a better choice since splash damage was already nerfed to hell and back. They kept doing that with pretty much every weapon, and they released them really quickly to where you can't just grind and earn them.
they should just put in weapon customization. actually, they should 100% rip off deep rock galactic but make the upgrades actually matter/be balanced
>do you want 60% or 100% inherited momentum?
>do you want do you want more direct or more splash damage?
This would be so cool that there's no way a hirez derived studio would ever do it.
It was fricking crazy, it was like what 50,000 credits to unlock a weapon? And each match which lasted like 20 minutes or whatever only gave <1000 credits so it was a crazy amount of grind required to unlock a weapon for free, versus paying like $15 for it
And they were releasing these weapons fast, I had barely had time to grind one of the weapons when they released a new one, then another one
I bought the first few classes day one because I liked the game, they were so broken on launch it was unreal. Like the ninja dude could fire a 3 burst grenade that did 1.5k damage and insta-killed lights with massive splash damage, and mediums and heavies were instantly taken out with throwing knives that had similar absurd hitboxes. The plasma cannon was an absolute joke, you could fire it in the general direction of an enemy and get blue plates every time.
Then they nerfed the shit out of all of them a week later so F2Pers didn't get any of the fun, it was obviously just designed to make whales happy.
That was one of the worst things about Tribes: Ascend, they would release comically overpowered weapons, get everyone to spend real money on them, and then nerf them a week later. It was downright sleazy.
asides from the pay-2-win the game was designed competently. So I hope these bozos from a related company can do it. They claim they're under different management but they seem rather vocal about it so there's hope.
the maps ranged in T:A from kind of small to enormous.
>another hirez eSports cashgrab
>No custom servers
>Matchmaking
>Micro transactions
LOL
Frick them for killing ascend.
Looks... boring?
Why is it that when you are younger you can grind repetitive, competitive multiplayer FPS games for hours on end, doing the same shit over and over again?
Now I just want chill RTS, CRPG etc.
tribes is actually pretty boring to spectate.
competent movement in tribes requires strategy and knowing the lines in the map
>CRPG
You've gone senile in your old age. Might as well just play Gachas too.
I've never played these games but find it very fun to spectate. The insane movement and every shot that lands is sick to me.
Because these tards are focusing on 5v5 games when Tribes traditionally had a lot higher playercounts with more roles.
5v5 is a good format for "competitive" CTF play but these players don't look like that type. They're probably employees and can't fill out a 32 person deathmatch room without tanking development for a day
The developers have supposedly stated on their playtest/ public discord server that they intend to make the games up to 36 versus 36 players.
Whether or not they deliver though, who knows.
I hope they do, I would install for that. Not going to bother for 5v5 esports trash though.
Player models looks like a straight up downgrade, like they were lifted from Global Agenda.
Weapons aside from the minigun seem to be poorly retextured assets from Tribes Ascend, making them look a bit worse, somehow.
>we want the 5v5 twitch streamer competitive audience
when will game devs learn?
you can already see they fricked up the speed and casualised maintaining your speed
>max speed of 130km/h
>smaller map full of obstacles to prevent certain paths
>parts where the speed should have dropped but it doesnt
1:47 where he lands on a slope and jets up it but instead of slowing down he gains forward acceleration? watching the video it feels like tapping the jets is like a boost/dodge now
> tapping the jets is like a boost/dodge now
I'm fine with this. it makes sense and it works great in other games
I'm slightly concerned whether it'll benefit pro players more than mediocre players like me, trying to pressure/knock flag bearers into making bad landings/routes to slow them down was one of the tactics
I heard there's a perk that allows you to keep more of your momentum on bad landings.
>speed limiting
>smaller map full of obstacles to prevent certain paths
Yes please. One of the biggest issues with Ascend in CTF mode was the absurd speed cappers could reach on all those rolling fricking hills, with too many angles for defenders to cover with their limited equipment. That made defenses and interceptors/ chasers practically worthless since half the time if you had good speed you just straight flew to your base without ever touching the ground. The only defense that worked was a snapshooting semi stationary sniper, which is just gay as frick.
thats kinda the thrill/fun though of trying to pop them midair
I played doombringer with the moron lock-on and I basically never fired it but it would always scare them away for sure. Snipers have to position along corridors to reliably hit fast scouts.
>we're not hirez we swear
it seems worth a chance to me.
yes, more of the thing that killed the last title, please more
Tribes Vengeance wasn't killed by speed limits or more cluttered maps though.
Should have been e a fat chad and stood on the flag coward.
slowgay game is gonna be dead slowgay game cant wait to see it
>same ceo
>building located across the street
>devs reusing decade old assets + code

>building located across the street
Clearly BLU team is better than RED.
Would Tribes be playable if it had speeds like in Ballistic tube race game? I think that may have been the fastest game there ever was thus far.
Dead within 6 months. Erez Goren is the CEO. He was the one who killed Tribes and Realm.
With Realm he forced the devs to put legendaries in chests when they were only originally availbel from the forge. The forge rewarded only those who could get kills. Chests would give legendaries to everyone regardless.
I've never played Tribes before, but I'm interested. I've been feeling really nostalgic for that era of PC gaming lately. Things like MechWarrior and Planetside and Unreal Tournament. I hope it's good.
>225km/h
finally someone who's not shit
It's harder to build up speed like in TA though because there's no regen and the two maps are quite small.
that's one of my concerns, having smaller maps is kinda counter to Tribes design philosophy of finding paths and building up for that steal/escape
wasnt ninja the one with invisibility too? they'd just sneak into your base and assassinate the heavies defending the flag and frick off
5v5 only?
pass
shills are in overdrive today.
Nobody's shilling schizo. What real shilling looks like is when Undertale was coming out and they had literal entire discords creating fake threads sucking it off and you'd get buried in astroturfed reply spam if you dared point it out.
with those huge maps, it reminds me of WoW's Warsong Gulch

>instantly slide to 50
>not using jet bar
this is kinda gay
I like the idea to spice up ground foghts but I think it should use up jet bar at least.
needs to use up like 33% or 50% of your bar to prevent that sort of spamming
>heavy sliding to 50 instantly
Basically the antithesis of everything the game should be about, nice.
>Spazing around like a fricking Zoomer
Question: Why does he not stand ON the flag and let poor little light guy splatter himself? Don't tell me they took away that feature too?
Holy shit there's a new tribes coming? I thought that fricking starsiege extraction shooter was gonna be it for the franchise.
Maybe this world isn't so bad
>no backpacks like in tribes 2
>no custom load outs like in tribed 2
> can't switch armor types at a resupply station like in tribes 2
>no bombers like in tribes 2
I thought tribes ascend eventually added all of those back in
wtf
is that a bug or is the player doing it intentionally? reminds me of a bug in Quake Champions where you walk over a ledge and get "sucked down" by some weird super gravity. it only occurs in a few special spots in the entire game.
It's intentional, but I'm not sure if it's a character perk or something else.
>small maps
>5v5 esports shite
do they want people to play the game or not?
looks like they are making skiing more forgiving when landing on flat surfaces or a bad angle
I remember this was a thing in the later halo games if you walked off a ledge rather than jump you would fall super fast, this looks more like you a magnetized to the ground while holding space rather than just sliding
>5v5
How the frick would any flag run ever be stopped? That's way too sparse
I got into the playtest today... the game so far is kinda terrible.
It is way too sparse and you can't. It's worse than T:A with its tiny maps that prevent people from chasing or getting speed to catch a capper in motion.
Game is in alpha, genuinely speaking now is the time to signup for one of the tests in order to provide feedback so shit gets fixed
so the dev that was in here in the last thread saying the game had only been worked on for a month was real
>the playercount dropped after tarkov and dnd had a wipe
is this moron talking about tribes ascend? the rework was way before either of those games came out
>is this moron talking about tribes ascend?
use your other brain cells a bit anon
This guy is talking about that deadsiege game, but probably same devs for this tribes one since the sounds and icons are the same. It was fricking awful at the core level.
>small teams
>tiny maps with a FRICKING WALL AROUND THEM
>no vehicle focus
This is going to be even worse than nu-Ascend.
>reusing tribes:ascend assets and charging $30 for it
frick hi-rez
It's not even Hi-rez. It's a developer that made a Starsiege game which was a fricking corridor shooter, then instantly abandoned it after launch.
Somehow the Tribes franchise got to a developer that manages to be ten times as cancerous as Hi-rez.
Fricking RIP Tribes.
Prophecy was started under Hi-Rez.
They "branched off" from Hi-Rez.
Erez Goren is now CEO. the same CEO as Hi-Rez studios.
Prophecy games is down the street from Hi-Rez studios.
It's another company ran by the same guy. It's dead.
that's disappointing. i'll still probably play it even if it is a borderline scam
>sniper class
well the game is already ruined
The sniper is a laggy projectile weapon with little damage, it's borderline unusable.
What the hell. Is that a bug, or an ability?
100% an ability
I don't like an ability like that in the game. Tribes should encourage getting better at spacing and judgement of gaps.
i feel the same way, so these videos arent very promising to me
there's apparently perks now
There were perks in Tribes Ascend, but not skills
T:A's perk system was shit just to pad out grind. And I even defended T:a's grind earier
>yes I want the heavy class to be heavy and do its job actually
>yes I want the light class to be light and do its job actually
wow totally worth the 10 hour grind
I got banned from the discord lol.
did you forget you cant say illegal gamer words?
I think it was because I suggested that the game needs anime tiddies, loot boxes and full penetration sex scenes, but who knows
>and full penetration sex scenes
>t. Dennis
"we aren't hirez we swear!"
BROS
THERE'S HOPE
You could've just read the steam page or any of the 70 comments about that, gotta love how morons see thing and assume everything from a fricking 1 month old game currently in alpha where literally nothing is going to remain similar to the release product
>empty discord post is the same as months worth of development time and balancing
What do you guys think of Legions: Overdrive?
Apparently it was made by an former HR employee. Never played it but it seems interesting and close enough to TA.
https://www.legionsoverdrive.com
wasn't that the game that was meant to be played in a browser? that idea was so moronic i completely ignored the game
Browser works for Quake
All I've heard about midair is that it was bad
id play it but the problem with tribes clones is that no one plays them. modern audience needs ascend battle pass monetization fomo tricks or they wont play
just make it halfway competently and monetize the fricker through skins, voice packs, announcer packs, and not blue plate turd launchers
Can't wait for the battle royale mode to destroy the game, remember to buy the battle pass.
Can you host a single player match against bots like in Counter-Strike? How many bots can you have? I like playing old multiplayer games offline like UT99 and Battlefront 2.
no its matchmaking only atm in the playtest
I meant for Tribes 2. My bad.
>my Dr diagnosed me with anxiety, please let me play against brain dead bots 🙁
frick off homosexual
enjoy your dead game
i have no hope for this game, but go take your go take your sertraline
bot modes are great for getting kids into FPS initially, that's how almost every FPS gamer I've known irl got into multiplayer games when we were too dumb and using too bad hardware to compete with humans online. but let's face it, that rarely leads to the same game growing. getting a MP game off the ground requires mass appeal and a technically solid launch, among other things. a bot mode? I don't think that helps at all. players who are off fighting bots aren't boosting the queue times / server populations. the game looks as dead with them as without. by the time the noobs get curious about facing real opponents the game has already died.
>queue times
you are thinking like a comp gay who cares about elo, ranking, matchmaking, unlocks or whatever, you need to think as a pub server where you can drop in drop out at any time, that is it, and bots solve that problem since they will fill in the empty slots in the server.
>queue times
>you are thinking like a comp gay
no, I'm thinking like somebody who hates loading screens and countdowns and anything that isn't gameplay.
>you need to think as a pub server where you can drop in drop out at any time
that's what we all want but usually we get a queue system because devs insist that all players NEED skillbased matchmaking.
>bots solve that problem since they will fill in the empty slots in the server
now you're losing me. I don't want to play against bots, they're either easy or they're using aim no human ever could, with no inbetween. I wish it was different and maybe one day it will be, but for now only human opponents are acceptable in a fast shooter. at least if you're gonna play on the same map over and over and it has no story or special scripting or anything to make the bots entertaining like singleplayer games can do.
I rather have a mix of dumb bots and godlikes bots with autoaim than a shitty queue system in a dying game, with bots at least I can play the damn thing, without them its over, there is no game to play, I can still play UT2k4 and have fun, ascend on the other hand is dead.
Funny, you can still play Section 8 in 2023 because it has bots.
>Section 8
Now that's a name I've not heard in decades
How do we download it? Its been removed from storefronts.
rutracker or some abandonware site.
>mfw it's still installed on my Xbox
>playing it right now despite not thinking about it even once in like 14 years
This game was actually a lot more fun than I remember thinking.
I keep trying to reinstall that game on my xbox but it just keeps stopping on its own.
That sucks. Probably has to do with the game being delisted years ago and the servers being gone though. You can't buy it or anything, and if it wasn't already installed on mine still I'm not sure I would have been able to download it either. I know the PC version had GFWL and without some obnoxious workarounds it's probably unplayable there too.
what is even more strange is that section 8 prejudice was a SEQUEL to the original self titled game "Section 8" that came out around 2007. I can't even find story cutscenes for it online. Everything insists prejudice is the same game. What the hell happened? Its a genuinely fun combined arms multiplayer game with PVE modes.
I had both. I think the original Section 8 bombed though, Prejudice improved on it a lot and it was the one that was somewhat popular. I don't recall the original even having much of a campaign, if any. I think it was more like a few tutorial battles against AI to introduce the multiplayer mechanics and that was about it. Either way, they are the definition of forgotten at this point, which is a shame because I think they were pretty fun and had cool ideas that could have been improved a lot with modern technology.
Section 8 was such a good game frick
>steam overlay
>aim assist
wtf, did this game have crossplay all the way back in the late 2000s? or is this guy just cheating?
it was a console port so auto aim was built in
but he seems to use a mouse for input. they forgot to tie the aimbot to method of input at least?
it was just on for everything, thats how console devs did they ports back then and part of the reason why they got so much hate.
Play Tribes Vengeance
>alpha
i will hold myself back from being mad
but at the same time Ascend was treated so poorly
>multiple speed reductions
>reduces backstab/lance damage
>reduced damage across the board because a light can take a mortar to the face
>had to work(or pay) for gear
>but then suddenly frick all that shit everythings free
Ascend was ruined by them trying to force esports, like Gundam Evo, and every other shooter that the devs/publishers think is going to be the new counterstrike.
>like Gundam Evo
huh??? the reasons gunevo failed had absolutely nothing to do with the gameplay
>Shazbowl was 11 years ago
>oblivious ascend babbies
hope its at least decent since UT is dead, damn it
they never recovered from that
Never 4get
GO GO GO
Not trying until Vegeta and legacy voices are in.
>and legacy voices are in.
At the very least we'll be able to VGS to our hearts content at some point
Do Tribes 1 and Tribes 2 still have players?
Ascend never really did it for me.
theres some tribes 2 servers that up but youd prob need to find a discord to find when they actually play
I miss Tribes so god damn much.
The only cope I found was Warframe which lets me go fast and shoot stuff, but it's obviously not the same.
Quake is the only cope for Tribes players. Warframe is barely even a game.
Quake is just too bland.
never ever heard somebody say anything like that before. consensus is that Quake is too weird to ever be mainstream (again). how can arcane air strafing tech, emphasis on controlling respawning items and a gory mix of far future sci fi and gothic architecture be bland? the only other game that is remotely similar is UT.
I have to admit I haven't played Quake for a while, not even sure which is its latest iteration. But for me Quake was always a deathmatch/team deathmatch game with a dozen weapons on a small map.
Tribes has bigger map, more weapons, vehicles, bases and the duality of flag and reactor objectives.
Warframe has like 300 weapons and 50 playable characters, a whole bunch of mission types, etc.
Quake just feels simple and bland to me.
maybe you only played a braindead click-on-the-guy mode like instagib or freezetag. Quake DM and TDM are extremely cerebral due to the importance of items. the pace is very high though so a new player can easily get overwhelmed and think it's about jumping and shooting randomly.
I think that DM/TDM itself is bland and boring.
we are SO fricking back bros
Tribes Boomers need to let Tribes go.
It had it's time, we had our fun, strop trying to revive it.
>got in the beta
>start downloading
>look up what it's supposed to be
>read 5v5
>uninstall before download finishes
it was over before it even began
Give me your key then.
moron, the full game supports 32v32
wow 64 players thats like half of a tribes 2 server 2 decades+ ago
Great, we're half way to having an actual tribes game again.
It will never have good vehicles, Ascend gave up on making good vehicle gameplay too. So that's only one quarter of a good tribes game now. The maps are too small for good bomber/transport support.
I can't speak for how vehicles are but are you really expecting full size maps in a 5v5 beta?
if the game has more than 5x5, why are they only testing 5v5 on small maps? something doesnt add up here...
Almost like this shits in a beta stage for testing
In current year Beta gameplay is a skip and a hop away from full release. It’s nothing more than a label devs slap on their bs so they can backtrack and claim no foul when there’s backlash.
And you judge it as so when it releases, otherwise you're getting pissed at them testing the game in a stage where it's appropriate to test it.
You’re awfully defensive
in beta stage and theyre not even testing the intended experience?
They've been working on it for only a month. I don't know how long they had been working on TA when the keys were distributed but TA was a lot more polished.
It will never have large maps as Ascend didn't have them either. I mean maps like T2 Reversion with 2km between bases and needing a transport, etc.
>>got in the beta
It's an alpha that's been in development for a month you moronic imbecile
everything's been moved up one version for years now. alpha = beta, beta = early access, early access = release
for sure dude
yes it's not 5v5 when it releases but it's still a Hirez game and it's being sold for $30. You're a fool if you think this will end well.
shit music but it looks like Tribes, so should be alright.
>hirez
>Independent offshoot from Hirez that doesn't have to answer to their management at all
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
we're so back Gankerros
no we are not, they destroyed their last game in a few weeks, and rivlas is going to die 6 months after release.
Its over.
skiing doesn't feel as good as i remember from ascend. is it different or has it just been too long?
>produced by Prophecy Games, a sub-group of Hi-Rez
No way gay.
played tribes II a million years ago, what's with the small teams and no player structures?
esports and compgays.
ascend ruined all chances of ever getting a real tribes game
1 month project in alpha is what's with it
It's already been over 10 years huh
Last time I had the Hi-Rez launcher on my PC it would never let me uninstall it. I'm not downloading their malware again.
FOV's too low and the player sucks, but the game looks like it could be fun.
>up to 32v32
>32v32 will be available
>up to
>available
Those are real vague terms.
What is the game actually being designed for as it's main mode that most matchmaking and servers will be?
You homosexual devs are desperately hiding that the answer is 5v5
You have to steer away from it NOW
>What is the game actually being designed for as it's main mode that most matchmaking and servers will be?
Game probably hasn't been in development long enough for that to be nailed down. In the feedback form they outright ask what is your optimal match size for Tribes 3
What the actual frick. How do they not know when they've had quarter of a century to figure this out?
Game has literally been in development for a month
which means they have no idea what the frick they want for this game, there is no vision.
Genuinely unsure if the other anon is correct on how long it's been in full dev (seems way too short to me), but it probably hasn't been in full development long. They're also planning on increasing match size for the next playtest in December
Maybe next week I'll get a key more than four hours before the playtest ends
They need to go to at least 12v12 or the game is going to sink like a rock. Nobody is in the mood for yet another 5v5 comp meta simulator, especially so for a boomer shooter revival. Perfect opportunity to get in the TF2/Battlefield niche and eat their lunch while practically nobody else is bothering to try
There's tons of red flags but I'm high on hopium I just want a Tribes game again
I was never good at going fast but enjoyed playing defense maybe I'll give it a go when there's a beta or something
Going fast is the only way to play
WHERE IS GLOBAL AGENDA 2?
where's tabula rasa 2
blatant marketer thread but theoretically if you made the product good, I would want it. I haven't gotten a key though.
People want: good physics (schmoovement), faest, big teams, classes, buildings, vehicles
People don't want: forced esports, slow, shitty game modes, RNG spawns, or overly complicated schmoovement.
thoughts on the alpha as TA vet:
>no regen sucks because it kills DJs and real capping and also makes D stacking stronger
>physics in general feel horrible
its like a consolified version of TA movement, you barely lose speed for cratering, DJing is dead because of no regen but even if you DJ you barely gain momentum
>jetpack
i think everyone hates it, nuff said
>maps
feel too big for the lack of movement due to DJ being removed, but also too small even for the 200 sanic boost pack caps
>chasing is dead
i dont get the idea of nerfing capping if you already can't chase vs. someone grabbing at 200 kmh and flying straight to their base
>sniping is dead
good fricking riddance, probably the only positive of this game over TA
>game is 20 dollars, instead of freemium
aaaand the game is dead, LOL
If it's a paid game, will it have a single player campaign? Seems an odd choice if not when they seem intent on appealing to MUH ESPORTS and streamers and will probably fill the game with microtransaction skins.
>will it have a single player campaign
No way. It's already confirmed to have in game currency called shazbux, which you'll probably buy using realbux
they confirmed its going to have skins in the future.
This is truly a UE5 game
Unreal Engine continues to be the death of gaming. God awful gamefeel, especially for shooters.
The Jank in Unreal can be worked out but GLHF trying to learn how with all the shills and asset flippers banning your ass on a whim despite literally showing up and asking questions like they encourage you to. The disc launcher in the trailer is using the default Unreal Project pose from the third person template. The reload animation is also stupid. These games let you fire without ever reloading. none of this "manually load the disc while having more than one still in the gun" shit.
Needs work.
t. aimlet
Tried it for a bit. 0 inheritance on projectiles except for a special spinfusor that has 100%. Direct hit spinfusor is extremely strong. Very hard to actually lose momentum when skiing.
honestly, it needs some new element to spice it up. I've been playing tribes since the first came out and this doesnt look like anything I haven't done before. How about some more dynamic ships instead of static stationary ships? This is a universe that has mechs, how about some goddamn mechs?
what if there is a starting phase where you're fighting your way through orbit and atmosphere in the fighters, drop pods, or some sort of exo armor?
Yes this would be great. The battle in orbit could affect your starting situation on the planet greatly. Everything from your starting supplies to the conditions of your base or the enemy base
>This is a universe that has mechs, how about some goddamn mechs?
But that's not lore accurate, Anon. Mechs were phased out being antiquated compared to the power suits the tribes use.
Well then that makes sense. I just remembered the earlier starsiege games having mechs
Reminder that game is not locked into 5v5, as you can read from this img. Do not listen to morons and larpers.
Well I forgot the pic
>matches larger than 5v5
>TBD
8x8 amazing improvement.
The fact that they didn't start on 16v16 means this shit ain't tribes.
If it's not minimum 16v16, then they don't get it, have no plans, and will continue to frick it up. This should be as large scale as possible.
>call it tribes 3 to make people think it's more like tribes 2 than ascend
>5v5
>most of you have never experienced playing tribes 1 with the ultra renegades mod
sadness
That was the craziest shit. Also that video reminded me how good T1 maps were. Absolutely massive with cool underground bunkers, sometimes massive too and floating fortresses.
> how good T1 maps were
man you aint kidding. thats what hurt T2 and ascend the most for me. The bases were huge and comfy as frick in T1
someone make a tribes in the same vein graphics as battlebit and lethal company
but make it fun

ah yes the conspiracy of the state of georgia
didn't they produce the Sam Hyde show?
A lot of stuff is produced in Georgia, they give huge tax breaks to media companies
it was also in their previous game, fricking newbie
The state of georgia killed tribes moron.
it wasnt a shitty company turning it into dumbed down microtransaction gaas turd?
oh yeah. Thanks for reminding me. I never played ascend but only heard bad things about it. It quietly shut down fairly recently from what I saw.
made.... in Georgia
come on guys. Georgia didn't do anything wrong.

>modern Ganker would 100% lose against reddit in a rematch hosted on Tribes 3
>modern Ganker would lose against themselves
Fixed
Obviously. Ganker isn't majority White anymore,
Hate to agree, but yes. Reddit would beat Ganker ten times in a row these days. I would be surprised if Ganker even scored a single cap. It would be a slaughter.
Most maps can lend themselves to capping routes, but at some point I want a map like Broadside from T1, where the flag was deep in the base and there were multiple ways inside. Sometimes, you had to form a group assault to slowly push your way in, and it made for a more tense game of ctf. People forget that a big part of Tribes is base defense/assault, and the later games never captured this as well. Vehicles too. I just miss the huge bases and maps you could get lost in.
route memorization is dead cause no regen and also it has a speed cap
>muh regen
do you think the old games didn't have routes?
you're not really worth talking to about this if you don't understand what goes into something like 600 grab at blue shift or CCR or temple ruins
Blue shit and temple ruins were garbage maps
CCR was fun, specially the front2front rock bounce routes
blue shift had the highest possible flag grab in game, something like 700 iirc, so it's by default awesome
I want to play!
As long as my computer can run it, I'll play it.
>erez goren
he's a israelite
but it is different from T:A which is the issue, T3 is just puritan shit nobody asked for plus that'll be 20 dollars
i dont think he means the same kind of gameplay. he means the same hirez bullshit.
tribes deserves better
Maybe they've repented, one could hope???
i know it'll be doa
Just assume the worst. If it works out be pleasantly surprised. If it doesn't then smuggly post on Ganker about not getting fooled.
It's definitely DOA, it's still going to be fun
at least for a little while
5v5 is to be expected these days but at least the devs are going to be putting in higher playercount matches next week. Hopefully that doesn't turn it into too much of a shitshow but who knows at this point.
Map is small and the radar is kind of lame. I don't need massive maps but Ascend did that perfectly.
Don't care about vehicles, never used them in Starsiege or 2.
Fun so far but I think 5v5 will get boring after a bit without larger maps and more dynamic buildings. I'll still buy it because I've been a Tribesgay for decades.
I'm having fun, but damn the energy pool is way too low. Maps are small too. I'm guessing they're pushing 5 v 5 so they won't have to make larger maps which is sad, but Erez is a fricking israelite so whatever. Enjoying it more than Midair at least. Also desperately need a VGS or at least a text chat system. I see they're adding voice, but I'm never using that shit.
Why do modern multiplayer games have such a big obsession with smaller teams in shooters?
It especially doesn't make sense when you consider how devs have a big problem with "toxicity" in shooters. If there is one fricking thing I have observed is players are more likely to be at each other's throats when the teams are smaller because their teammates not playing well matters more.
consoles couldnt handle higher player counts and it kind of just stayed like that
But even consoles used to do better than 5v5. How are consoles getting worse?
Games these days put a lot more stress on console tier hardware because of increasingly poor optimisation
My guess is there has been some new study that found player retention increased on a 5v5 and they could keep people on the hamster wheel longer with the idea they have more of an impact and can influence games.
Probably why overwatch when to 5v5 too
the game has 6 weeks of dev time so whatever premade multiplayer asset they used only has 5v5 or they are doing custom code and want to isolate netcode/perf issues from the playtest
if there aren't actual player organized mechanized infantry battalions fighting across your 15 square kilometer map then you might as well just be call of duty
it's 5v5 with small maps.
IVE GOT YOUR NUMBER; IVE GOT ALL YOUR NUMBERS!
I love that his [vgtb] was just him laughing his ass off. Tribes 2 had the best voices.

Don't laugh at me.
I will if you call this janky shit "smooth"
I'm gonna play crusader crossbow Medic to cope with not getting in.
>ackshully it's not hirez
Listen here, buttholes. Regardless of whether the developer is in-house or what the arrangement is, Hi-Rez isn't giving up the IP, so they're still going to have their hand so far up this project's ass they could practice ventriloquism. Stop selling false hope.
Why are people saying this is Hi-Rez. Steam says Prophecy Games, which I've never heard of. Are they the same company? I swear I googled it but I may be moronic.
Thank you for spoon feeding me Anon I will be more thorough in the future.
I won't trust it until a month after release.
>5v5 matchmaking in 2023 when we have technology to make 50v50 games
Into the trash it goes. Bros how do rereads like this get money to make games like this? I could prob do a better job

lie on your resume and be israeli
How the frick do I play this? I kept clicking the play button and waiting but nothing happens.
Pretty sure the test is over.
Massive mistake showing off what's supposedly a pre-alpha instead of keeping it in stealth mode. Dashes my hopes if it blows up too much and people are turned off by early start of production.

thanks for helping me come out xister
tribes ascend was so fun, im hyped
>Everyone going on about "5v5 DOA"
>The next alpha is in a week and will have larger team sizes
Is Ganker illiterate or what?
Because they have not specified what that means. It could be 6v6 for all you know.
if you had lurked more homosexual you'd know they are planning on 32v32
No. They have said it might be "available in the future". Meaning they haven't ruled it out but aren't focusing on it right now either. You're the one who needs to lurk moar.
>32v32 (if it even happens)
>on these tiny ass maps
It's so ogre bros.
Looks exactly like tribes ascend which i dont hate. I still think ascebd tried to distill the formular too much compared to starsisge tribes Especislly compared to seever mods.
Still neat.
If the 5v5 thing is true its dead on arrival
It's like Ascend with harder skiing and no hitscan snipers. If you're not good at energy management then you will be a slow ass and get your ass raped. I'm having fun, but I feel like it's gonna bomb for the same reason Midair bombed. Far too difficult for the average player. They're listening to the same people that killed that game.
Tribes is not like Quake. IDK why people pretend it is.
People have given a lot of feedback against that direction and I hope they listen. The physics and art suck rn but I'm optimistic.
>They're listening to the same people that killed that game.
What happened to Midair exactly?
Very focused on competitive, basically lights only small maps and teams, more control but hard to get used to. Thrust vectoring felt pretty hard to actually get decent at.
>It's like Ascend with harder skiing
what the frick are you smoking? there's no regen meaning no intricate route memorization, it has ski boost and what i can only assume is some kind of "landing boost" because you never lose much speed despite how shit you landed
Regen making skiing easier, moron. You never get punished for spamming disc jumps.
grammar anon. I do find it funny that Ganker has people defending regen now when that was not the case 10 years ago.
they were too busy defending the generator for no reason
>rocket jumping is less skillful
have a nice day
>rocket
It's a disc.
>200 speed cap and no rocket/disc jump + 30 sec cooldown boost pack is more skillful than timing your self boosts so that you hit stand at full hp
have a nice day fat Black person
There is no speed cap. You just suck ass.
HAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
quake champions is still free btw
And dead as can be. Although it was never alive.
it will never be as dead as T3, 20 dollars for a niche fpsz
i will buy the most expensive version
i fricking love tribes
Never forget what they took from you.
damn I almost forgot how insufferable Tribe gays are.
Does anyone have faith in this though? T:A died before the fricking game even came out of beta due to absolutely moronic changes. Speed cap, making it so you couldn't use impact nitrons to boost, making INF get visible after going over a certain speed, etc. I also remember they removed some map and never brought it back, at least while I played.
>T:A died before the fricking game even came out of beta due to absolutely moronic changes. Speed cap
which youtuber started this meme? i have over 1000hrs in the game and 500hrs of them capping and for some reason i hear this moronic take everywhere
It's my honest opinion, I don't give a frick what Youtube c**ts say. It's been many years since I last played, but they absolutely did something to the speed. Maybe it wasn't a hard cap, but a limiter or something that made it harder to maintain speed once you get so fast. Either way, it was a dumbfrick decision.
and let's be honest if your complaint is that you can't cap using impact nitron (even though you can) you most likely know very little about capping, and the speed cap didn't affect you. since its set to decay to 300
You're probably right, I should've consulted you, the expert, before making my post. In the beta, people used to use grenades as a boost. They change it so you drop the flag. That's objective fact and that's a moronic change.
holy frick you are brainless
>5v5 eSports nonsense
huge deal breaker
stop catering to this invisible demographic
If you're wondering where this idea came from, their subreddit is full of boomers that desperately want Tribes to be an esport. A bunch of the admittedly very good T1/2 players run esport blogs and shit. They just can't let it go.
From what I've gathered the tribes community falls into 2 camps.
1. People who want serious esports comp play
2. People who want huge pop servers primarily about vehicles and base play.
>5v5
The game is a rush job. They fact they can't simply commit to a bigger playtest right now should tell you everything you need to know.
If what other anons have been saying about it being only a couple of months in development is true, then I really don't understand the extreme rush behind it. Doesn't make sense to shove a barely started project out the door like this.
Their other game flopped hard. This is supposed to be an "easy" project, which doesn't inspire confidence, but maybe they're hoping they can just copy shit from the older games. I feel like they should have just remade one of them. Could have gotten the nostagia bucks and had an easy development.
When games from two decades ago has 128 players running on glorified calculators and dial up connections, it's a crime that a modern title is even beginning at 5v5.
I just checked my email and got a code
Is the test still going
Are you lost or do you wanna talk about Earthsiege?
where are the vehicles
ascend was so fricking based (shit (in a good way))
yeah, tribesisters, i'm thinking we're back
