Tribes: Ascend

[-AEnubis-]

Blitz will be cool until people know the spawns well and start timing chain grabs.

Also, I think people like it now, because not as many people have 220kph+ grab routes for the new flag locations yet.

Encountered epic trolling on Arx Novena 3P today. Our team had only the small capture point, and I got spawn killed eleven times in a row by orbital strikes.

You see, the trouble with that capture point, is everyone spawns in the same place. The trouble with the orbital strike is that it has a very large radius, and kills made by it count towards the next strike.

So if you have eight or more players on a spawn point, and you nuke them, you don't have to wait long before you can do it again. Two people with a strike each can lock down a spawn point theoretically indefinitely. I say theoretically; they failed to do so because they ran out of credits. They ran out of credits because all but 4 players on the team quit.

Edit: found this in the localisation files today...

Decided to stop playing today. The new patch means that every server has about six Sentinels in it, and they can two-shot you :/

It's not fun anymore.

[Rambowjo]

I stopped playing a long time ago. Hi-Rez had a decent game going, but they ****ed up pretty much every single aspect of the game and completely ignored vital feedback.

Still play enough to get my bonus each day, but not much more than that. I post more than I play.

Yeah I haven't played in a few weeks. The maps got really old, really fast actually. Every match seemed to be the same, just decided to see how many Blue Plate Specials I could get. They need to add a UED and get some new content out there. That would spark my interest.
