Looks pretty cool. Seems a lot like t2 classic.

Some gameplay footage from gamescon.

How has this not had the shit sued out of it by bungie..
-
You know Halo was basically inspired by Tribes, right? The company making this owns the Tribes IP. If anything, they could sue Bungie.
-
hahaha, Doomslay showing his age there.
HALO ON THE XBOX WAS THE BEST FPS EVER
-
Halo PC tbh.
-
Didn't mean it like halo was good (mediocre) but even if the origional of this was out first.. watched some gameplay (i genuinly didn't know this was around so early) and they've definitly stolen some bits from eachother.

halo 2 was best sauce

halo 2 was best sauce
Was for me. Soooo many hours spent online, more then WoW.
Reason Halo became so popular was because it's formula just WORKED for consoles...but kesh is right.
Tribes>all

No, no, no. They didn't steal bits from each other. Halo was originally an RTS game that was utterly changed after Tribes was released. Tribes stole nothing.

Maybe i need to actually play tribes 1 to understand :)
I saw some screenshots of the new tribes game and the armor etc looks -very- much like the stuff on halo 3! Was the ammo count built into the gun model around on tribes 1 kesh? Looks like a fun series though - Guess never actually seeing it before this year does show my age yeah.
-
Don't think so, but Tribes: Vengeance (the third installment of tribes) did, and that was released 3 years before Halo 3.
-
The 1st halo had that (not that i was arguing for it, just curious). Will defonatly pick this up though after having looked more into it - will be nice to have a faster paced FPS thats fairly modern.
-
Some CTF action from Starsiege: Tribes (released 1998.)
A little more slow paced :P
-
God, that 2nd video is awful.
-
1st one is miles better, yeah! So fast!
-
You can actually see the models and shit in the second, though :P
-
Thats true haha, 1st is a blur. I'm guessing from this you're quite a big fan of this series kesh!
Its interesting how 2 videos of the same game and a change of speed + with/without music etc make it appear so much more attractive.
-
Well, the thing with Tribes is that there's a lot of things to do. Some of it (things involving light armour and the flag) where it's 500 miles a hour, mid-airing and so forth. There's other stuff like that guy in the second video with the guy in heavy armour deploying an remote inventory and spamming down the enemy base defenses, which is a little less exciting.
It can be more exciting, though, he just played it a boring way. If u look at the first video, the guy in the second video could be doing that in his heavy armour, if he were a skilled player. It's just a hell of a lot harder.
And, yes, I'm a massive fan of this series :)

Appologies for mindlessly attacking one of your fav's then! You've convinced me to give it a go anyway.

I'm sure you're all busy playing Dota 2 or DS or whatever, but I have some beta keys for this if anyone is interested.
