The SRK Tribes Ascend Thread - Shazbot!

CTF Raindance is prone to flag turtling in the gen rooms, from the few matches I’ve played on it. Maybe I’m just playing against/with bad teams and my fat Doombringer ass can’t do anything about it besides camp alongside or go outside for some fresh air/fly over to the flagstand and sit there.

CP Raindance is great fun, though.

Also, I didn’t mention it before, but this game’s OST is pretty gersh-dern good.

That’s what Tribes is about. Nobody is supposed to get all 5 caps.

Ive been playing this shit and I like it. I suck so bad at it, I get fucked up all the time. My name in that shit is Faltimar.

I finally got this game working. For some reason, I had to reinstall Win7 to get it going.

You know what, I was having the same problem recently. Do you have dual monitors by chance?

Edit: I updated the front page with a sign up link. We should work towards getting me 10,000 player referrals so that I can make a map. I’ll make it a giant pair of boobs.

I did have a dual monitor setup. But I sold the 2nd monitor, and I was still having problems with it. Didn’t help that my prior installation wasn’t a pre-format installation, though.

edit Also, put me down in the OP as a player:

BIGWORM - BIGWORM

It has been crashing for me on start up lately and I had just hooked up a second monitor. Realized that was my issue all along.

Hmm. I’ll look at it this way from now on.

Oh, I should add my screenname:

NobleCactus

Updated the front page with players.

Just wanted to drop by and say Shazbot, kinda switched to Nexuiz.
HiRez can go eat a dick.

Fantastic contribution. Really appreciate it.

never seen any of you in game.

game has barely changed since beta. 2 big patches in the last like 6 months and the rest is just whatever.
temple ruins is terrible. raindance is a decent remake though.

I haven’t been playing a lot of anything recently. I discovered Breaking Bad and… well…

i think you guys are also probably low level wise to be matched up in most cases.

I’m level 20 or something like that.

I play I’m just waiting for my 680 to come since I accidentally killed my 580.

oh ok yeah maybe not everyone but just from skimming the thread seems like a lot of new players who have little or no experience with the franchise.

Ive never played a Tribes game before this one. Im like level 5 in this shit. I still havent figured out how to keep my momentum going to well. I’ll get going fast but if I try to turn my dude just stops. Then I get busted on.

While moving fast, you can’t really turn. Let off the ski, and hit the jet pack to change direction a little easier. Then make sure you come down on a slope, and hold ski again.

Thats cool. It just seems like if I slow down or stop I get one shotted. Is that even a word, shotted? hmhmhm
