What the gently caress somebody hated on Tribes and then I asked what about it sucked and they remained silent... MAYBE CUZ TRIBES IS THE BAUZEST edit; yeah I also don't really get the fun of Payday 2. It's really poo poo playing with pubs and it just seems like a slower fps. Did not like.

I thought it was okay and it sucks that they stopped supporting it. I didn't like the bullet weapons though. It was funny looking at the thread and seeing people sperg out about how much it sucked because it didn't have 100% weapon inertia when I'm fairly certain T1 and T2 didn't either.

EYE is really excellent for co-op shootmans, but the competitive modes are both garbage Fistfull of Frags is also pretty good for an undead mod, especially when played with friends

also the potential the Loadout had before it filled up with brazilians and kids was alright, but those cosmetic prices were pretty hosed from the get-go e: In T:A, wasn't the main problem that one of the engineer-type classes was basically the most powerful versatile thing?

The worst problem with tribes: ascend was that it wasn't very good to begin with. It was much simpler and basic than tribes 2 for example, but that wasn't a problem because it was still beta and we were thinking about all the potential it had. Except instead of adding more old tribes elements to it like bigger maps and crazier vehicles they started catering to the CoD/Battlefield crowd by adding bullet weapons. They also started adding overpowered weapons to the game that you would need to either grind or pay real money to get, and after a while they would nerf the gun, effectively creating a pay2win model in disguise. But the biggest crime as I saw it was not adding cool stuff, I played a bit of tribes 2 and it's mind-blowing huge in terms of features. They didn't even needed to create new stuff, just import the best bits from tribes 2 into the nice graphics and nice sky mechanics (since tribes 2 skying is kind of cumbersome) of tribes ascend.

the new UT's license is cool as hell, the bast game is free but you can develop whatever and sell it as an addon for a cut i think

I'm pretty sure the bullet weapons were in from the beginning or at least really early. They were the dumbest thing. Also yeah I wish they had bigger maps. There were a couple that were a decent size but the rest felt like they were vengeance maps and that's not a good feeling to have.

I'm really excited about the new UT. The only competitive FPS I played since quake arena in loving 1998 was tribes ascend. I can't wait to do that again. I thought about trying the new rise of the triad but the lukewarm reception kept me away. Going back to unreal will be fun.

Even worse, the bullet weapons in T:A were originally hitscan instead of projectile.Schnedwob posted:e: In T:A, wasn't the main problem that one of the engineer-type classes was basically the most powerful versatile thing? Could put up to two small, but not weak turrets, his primary was yet another bullet weapon and unlockable (the Thumper) was a single shot grenade launcher that was way too good as a self defense weapon and had unlockable mines that depleted your energy necessary for loads of stuff like the jetpacks. It was actually really fun.

Pikachu posted:I thought loadout was trying to sell itself on being "gross", like the queasy bake oven, a toy for ten year old boys I played it initially because the third person shootan' gameplay reminded me of ratchet and clank, and the gun customization seemed really cool. Then i realized how horrible f2p playerbases are and that there was really only one viable gun configuration that was remotely competitive. Also reading about everything Tribes Ascend did wrong really makes me wish I'd played other Tribes games in their heyday. I enjoyed the hell out of T:A for a while before its cracks started to show

Was going to post in defense of UT, glad to see Page 3 is so with it. Epic's basically just acknowledging that they pretty much make their money from people licensing their engine, and making a good move to grow popularity with players. Haters suck it.

Yeah I was fine with Tribes;A and still am. The 5v5 scene was dope and pubbie play was fun as hell. It wasn't as good as the previous titles but I played for free and had a blast. Gotta go fast

Man you guys lied to me when you said CS:GO was good. I tried it out and my guns appeared to mostly shoot coughs and whispers instead of bullets, also the Games thread told me that I just need to practice for hundreds of hours for it to be fun. This is the shooter thread, please do not recommend dota again Edit: Also Hawken seems okay but pretty boring if you don't have buddies to play with and all of my buddies are addicted to dota, which is a neverending thorn in my side
