I’ve still yet to play this game. I don’t know what’s going on with it. I don’t think Hi-Rez has some kind of support forum up?
Does it crash on start up or what?
Yep. All day, every day lol
Does it crash on the launcher or on the actual game?
On the launcher, I believe. Starts up from the game checker, press play, black screen, flickers, then CTDs.
Hmm, strange. Give me a breakdown of your system specs, and dumb stuff like screen resolution.
Something simple to try, update your drivers.
odd, i had issues at first. When I first tried to join the queue, it didn’t load. So I reloaded the game, and it worked.
Then I crashed on my second game, and gave up. I had a blast though, but yeah, it’s been awhile since I played Tribes lol
I’ve never had any problems with it, crashes or otherwise. You guys must be doing something wrong. That’s the only explanation.
Tribes name: Spootz
I want to point out, that this game is most certainly not pay-to-win. BUT it is play-to-win. The UPGRADES can only be bought with in-game money. An upgraded player is better than a non-upgraded player. So, as you play not only do you get better, but your character gets better. Fortunately, the upgrades are slight improvements, and not MASSIVE jumps (unless you are maxed out).
naaa, just your standard crash. Dunno what was up with it when I tried to join a multiplayer queue, it just went to this weird blue screen with a cursor. I had to shut it down, then start it up again to get it working. The crash later was your standard crash though, just crashed when I was loading a map. No biggy, I would have reloaded but I’d already played a few matches and was getting ready for bed anywho.
I will probably hop on later tonight though, if I have time.
I’ve been in the beta for awhile. i’m ‘leilei’ incase you’re wondering
I like it better than Vengeance and Tribes 2 already, and i’m someone who first played Tribes in Dec '98. 
Everyone should be playing on East servers, the West servers are pretty empty as of right now.
What does the Extra code “GOTTAGOFAST” do?
It changes speed to SANICS.
Sorry, took off to Vegas for the weekend. Running an i5 750 @ 3.8, 8GB DDR3, and a GTX550 Ti with a 9500GT as dedicated PPU, running 19x10
As of this upcoming Friday, Tribes Ascend hits open beta.

I’m beyond excited for this!
Also, if you get the March issue of PC Gamer it comes with 350 tribes gold.
Bah! I wasted your beta invite cause i was moving. Oh well. As soon as I have internet I’m playing ALLLLL the games!
And most likely with some substantial PC upgrades. :tup:
Blah oh well. Open beta starts Friday and nobody will need a key. Also, yay pc upgrades! Let me know if I can help.
Tribes tag: Squared
Not quite ye’old tribes fun, but definitely an amazing game so far. While I don’t mind the “you can use money to replace experience” deal, what I don’t understand is why all the xp:gold ratios are so ridiculous, for example; the pathfinders second primary weapon is 42000xp while it’s only about $5 in gold and even the most expensive new class is only 18000xp. Seeing as you get approximately 1000xp max per match (hypothetically speaking, because you’d have to be close to a tribes god to avg that amount of xp per match), that is a lot of fucking time just for a new weapon(if u don’t want to spend money that you shouldn’t have to). It would also be nice if you could “un-spend” gold and/or xp so you could get a feel for a weapon or class you want to try without having to be all “lets try this…oh, I don’t really like the _____I bought with gold or xp…but too bad for me.”
Still, it is very fun, guess I’ll just be grindin that xp
Please share your opinions on my statement
When I returned after the big Feb update I just simply upgraded the fuck out of the Pathfinder primary spinfusor like a real scrub and did the +1 Belt perk. So far so good.
I couldn’t try any class/weapon I wanted in the training mode though
