I haven't played enough to unlock a bunch of classes, is infiltrator worth getting or should I save my tokens? Also is VIP really worth it?

[Kaelazun]

I felt like uploading something.

What is the story behind SHAZBOT

It's like "smeg" or "frack". Scifi swearing with the benefit that sometimes when you spam it it sounds like "shit".

Whats better for capping the flag and going fast, pathfinder or jumper?

I would say pathfinder but all the pro cappers I've seen have played jumper

[Grim Jam]

Arguable the jumper has a higher chance of being able to go faster, but the pathfinder is almost exactly the same but with more utility.

[Raidyr]

Jumper has the most acceleration and, if you can hit every route perfectly, is better overall
Pathfinder has two better weapons, great grenade, and is more tolerant in regards to mistakes.

So with my Hi-Rez Studios game installer not installing is it possible I can download Tribes directly from a site and with it put my CD key in so I can play the game?

Big update on the way. Class customization, better UI, a better spread of free classes, one light, one heavy, one medium. And they're knocking the classes down to 9 cause of the customization. There's a bunch of other stuff too.

yessssssssssssssssssssssssssss



wow that's a fucking ton better lmao

Edited:

Decreased energy recharge rate and maximum energy on Shrike Afterburner.

● Decreased Shrike Health by 33%.

● Increased effectiveness of non-tracking AOE based projectiles against Shikes. (Spinfusors, Thumpers, etc). Luck (or skill) shots provide a bigger payoff.

Oh dear, now in addition to touching anything killing you your main gun is completely shit. Nerfed Hard.

Upgrade? Wait what?

Seems they're splitting the upgrades a bit.

yes you see the part where they moved the +5 ammo and shit into the weapon itself instead of the class

Yeah, interesting.

[Raidyr]

This is the greatest thing ever.

[Funny Hats]

I really hope we just get XP/Tokens refunded instead of having them try to port our upgrades over, or at least give us a choice. If it's a totally renovated system I'ld like to use what I've invested so far to play around with it.

Title should be Tribes: Ascend v2: Shazbot General

It's stated right in the second paragraph.

[Raidyr]

I'd like to keep some form of progression but even if I don't I don't mind too much. I really only play Pathfinder/Jumper/Ranger/Doombringer anyway.

Sweet!

I can now spend my tokens on something other than the Infiltrator.

Don't forget the tokens you might have spent on Pathfinder/Juggernaut as they're default classes now. I now have about 11,000 tokens (or the new XP equivalent) I can spend on shit, plus all the XP I've invested in Pathfinder and Raider. This gonna be fucking awesome.

Actually, now that I think of it, I wouldn't mind seeing a "Refund XP" thing in the cash shop for like $3 so I can start anew and take a different upgrade path every once in a while.

I only play pathfinder

I just got to go fast

[Raidyr]

Just went through all the changes, besides some of the weapon balance choices (Fusion Mortar damage buff? Seriously?) I love everything.

[Funny Hats]

I'm interested to find out what the Stealth Spinfusor is and if it'll actually make Infiltrator effective. Also,

Infiltrators will now only reveal if they throw a belt-item and have ammo.

Looks interesting.

[Miskav]

Oh hell yes now this is an update.

Cool your damn jets son, they're refunding your tokens and they've basically merged him with Pathfinder.

HiRezBart wasn't exactly sure, but he revealed that the EXP:Token ratio is around 8:1.

Noooo, the removed the scrambler! D:

Edited:

Just read the entire changelog.

Holy balls. They're basically remaking the entire game.

[Diealready]

god damnit it just finished downloading the game now I have to download another gigabyte

I hate having a 25GB monthly bandwidth cap, there's so many games I want to finish downloading but can't because of it.

[bionic0n3]

It must really blow to have a bandwidth cap. I have no idea how I would track all my downloads and limit it so low.

[The golden]

Patch download is moving at 0.1% every minute.

ARgh.
