I was under the impression they were not releasing a level editor. It's not included in the game binary.
Ascend does not feature any community map-making or mod tools at release because Hi-Rez states that their main focus is building a large community of players first, and then supporting the game themselves. While a significant blow for the Tribes modding scene, Hi-Rez haven't ruled out the possibility of releasing mod tools sometime in the future.
Huge Terrain maps? Yes please!
Oh man people teaming up with friends to stomp pubs, this is outrageous.
Temple Ruins is a perfect example of that, it's also because the flag stand is flat and so easy to defend.
They added Stonehenge, which is a custom-server-only map. I see one active server running the map and it did empty out from time to time.
It's in beta, it'll move into the main rotation when it's ready. Tartarus did the same thing.
TBH I don't like Stonehenge, way too short flag distances. At least drydock has multiple elevations and it all actually make sense.
The way they've laid out the structures and how the flow works is just not appealing.
TempleRuins is a perfect example of large scale map gone wrong. The terrain is terrible and the base sucks.
I Swear if you're not an echo of what I say sometimes.
I suppose quoting me is your last concern.
