Anyone else want a key? I got one, but I'm probably not going to have time to play in the coming months.

Its pretty fun. Berge and I have been playing this weekend.

They have made some changes to the core gameplay so it does not feel quite like Tribes 2 but its close.

Game is free to play and you earn "credits" for doing stuff in game. You can spend those credits to unlock new classes, weapons, upgrades, etc. Or you can just pay money to unlock stuff.

Problem is the unlocking seems slow and thats the "incentive" to pay. I've played for a few hours (leveled up to 6) and I've maxed out the upgrades for my primary gun plus purchased armor and pack buffs. If you want something bigger like a new class or a new gun then you have to spend more. Price for a new class is about 18000 credits. If you're really good you might get 1000 credits per map.

That being said, the only class I really want is unlocked by default so Im just buying weapons and upgrades.

That's not a horrible unlock rate...battlefield was taking 4-8 maps per weapon on average (when we all still had stuff to unlock), and if you can target what you want to unlock...

...I enjoyed the origional Tribes and Tribes2, but my heart remains with the Clawn. Where the clawn goes is where I go....

When the matchmaking works right, it's amazing. When it doesn't, it's still a good FPS.

That said, I'll never pay for unlocks, but I will play it some more when I get back.

this.

How big is the install? I'll go ahead and sign up, but I'm not keen on installing if dudes never play.

I'm playing this shiz...

Rob told me some other clawners were as well.

Can we get a roll call so I can add some people to their janky ass friend's list.

I'm Fusoya of course.

P.S. Also - the game is about 4GB if I remember right Rob.

Lacking in eyefinity support. I get options for my eyefinity resolutions (5760X1200, 5200ish X 1080, 2080ish X 600) and 800 X 600. That's it. When in any of my eyefinity settings I have a constant zoom applied. Here's pics of what I see at all times (taken in windowed mode to get screencaps to work right):

note to eyefinity users: we fixed teaks' problem by forcing a single monitor resolution in the config file.

So I gave the game another shot. I remembered that I was a god at base defense in the originals, so I unlocked technician and started fucking around.

Post subject:  Re: tribes ascend

cost of game: $0
cost of unlocking everything with money instead of time: $168
cost of unlocking everything if you don't buy in bulk: $231
estimated play time to unlock everything you could have bought with money: 834 hours

recommendation: play the game for free until you decide you like it. then spend $30 or $50 like you would on any game. unlock all the stuff you've been pining for, and use the 200% XP boost to upgrade all your favorite crap. Never spend another dime on the game because you have all the crap you want already.
