I really loved Tribes 1, never really played Tribes 2 b/c when it first came out it was full of bugs and by the time
they patched it I never got back into it.
On the Tribes Vengeance note, I do play it and it is pretty good. Nothing compaired to the renegades for Tribes 1, but
what can you say for strictly base.
Like Espritdumort said, they are going to bring out a Ren mod for this, and I am absolutely can't wait for that
day. This mod is going to bring the game back to life, they have big team of coders and mappers working on this mod.
They are going to re-do a lot of the originals maps.
First I will say that in Renegades I am almost stricly use "engineering armor". With this I can put down D
and at the same time snipe with the rail gun. At one point in Broadsite (T1) I took on a team of four against me and
won the match. Rail gun is so great.
Anyways, in TV base, I prefer to use the light armor with the energy pack, disk launcher, chain gun and laser riffle. I
will switch to shield pack if there are alot of snipers on the level, but I feel energy pack gives me the ability to
chase down flag cappers alot better.
i also take advantage of the fighters whenever possible if our team is getting hammered on. I am pretty skilled and
once dueled two fighters at once, coming out alive to then kill the flag capper.
I don't like how they changed the mines from T1, they are to easy to spot and you only have a limited amount of
thim. It was so nice to spawn with 3 every time you were killed. Made people much more cautious.
I will have to say that I tried single player for a bit and it did get borning so I also only play multiplayer.
Anyone have a favorite T1, T2, or TV map?
-For T1 I would have to say Broadside or Sacrabe.
-For TV I would have to say the level with the lake in the center and flag stand in the tower to the side (don't
know their names to well yet).
What are your thoughts on the grappler?
-I hate that it has unlimited health, if you have a skilled person they can grapple from the cieling in the
"caves" level and they are almost unkillable. This is b/c no splash damage can hurt them and they are
swinging so much they are hard to hit with anything but chaingun and maybe burner if you get close enough. They need to
patch this and put a health restriction on the rope.
