I would argue that double/triple midair rocket kills in Quake (shooting a guy in midair with a rocket to bounce him up higher and then midair rocketing again for the kill, or a 3rd if hes full stack) are up there with it.

No use ranking them, but the kills in Battlefield where you jump out of you plane, destroy an enemy plane, then reenter your own plane are a pretty absurd demonstration as well.

this is such a relief to see gameplay from someone who knows how to play it. awesome to see a familiar name from OCE/bittah land to boot.

The small game is right on. If it prospers to the big, base defense and vehicles all while having 128 players it's worth investing and if they stay in the lane.

Just a reminder that you can still play T1 and T2 any time you want and they're still great games. The reason you can still play them is that they had private servers, mods, and user made maps. Any "Tribes" game without these things will just be another flash in the pan like Ascend.

So excited!!!!

The movement is quite different from previous tribes games - it's hard to compare it. It's a lot easier to get moving but currently a lot less jet power too. But still only in alpha so room to change.

This honestly looks like it's got the feel of Tribes 2, something some of the other remakes was lacking. I'm so hyped to play this, was a turret monkey back in the day.

This is just a montage of clips people shared which I edited into an action montage. It's not a trailer. The actual game has you using jetpacks to gain height and then frictionless boots to ski on the terrain to build up speed. You coordinate with your team to clear out or distract enemy defences while someone else on your team tries to fly by as fast as they can to grab the flag and bring it back to your base for capture. There's obv a bit more involved than just that but that's essentially the core of the capture the flag game mode which is the most popular in Tribes games.

Mmmh Shazbot!, energy based sniper rifle should be the only hitscan weapon in the game, get rid of the halo looking BS, lean into Faction specific aspects. Chain gun from t1 FTW IMO. Not perks, use backpacks. The driving force to modernize the game is what's wrong with it. Hope it's real old school.
