Fuck yes, still can't believe how quickly hi-rez killed the last one...it was huge and then they just abandoned it

Low-rez is amazingly good at quickly dropping any product that doesn’t beat the past decade of smite’s performance in the first 6 months of life. Then continuing to ruin smite

I used to play pickup games every day with the guys on team deadstop and everyone who haunted that mumble server. I miss it so much.

Don't they dare heck this up!

I really hope this succeds

Grinning at critters remembering Tribes and Global Agenda ^.^ Also hoping this one is many funs, though I kinda just wanna play Tribes 2 again and doubt this'll be much like that.

I used to go to a programming summer camp where we would have massive LAN parties playing Tribes 2

It does looks a lot like Tribes: Ascend. I hope it doesn't turn out the same way. Though I have a feeling the devs that worked on it that are working on this one were the ones that actually liked the series and wanted to do it justice but were tied down by Hi-Rez.

When Tribes came out, it was about massive terrains and battlefields in the scifi Metaltech universe and trying to coordinate with a team that needed to employ different types of classes. Skiing was unintended yet grew to be a cornerstone of the series, and Tribes 2 was an evolution of this and even created its own internal social network. It has since become more arena like, and this seems to follow that trend.

Doesn't really look interesting, there wasn't even a video to showcase the game engine, try harder next time. I'm still only going for THE FINALS when It comes out
