Tribes Ascend

Post by untamed316 »

I'm not sure if it was ever mentioned anywhere (I did a forum search) but is there any info on this game that is coming out next month? My friend has played the beta and says its fun. Since I run a VDS I am interested to hear if any info has been released regarding servers in the event I liked the game on release.

This is not a game I have heard much of anything about. I am sorry.

There may be some users on the forums though that have. Lets see what their feed back is. :D

I have played the beta myself of Tribes Ascend and I will say, it is HORRIBLE.

Has NFO tried contacting the publisher/developer of this game to see if you will be able to offer dedicated servers and if players will be able to gain xp/rank on them.

Some of the info/rumors i have seen say players will be forced to play on centralized dedicated servers ran by the developer. Players will be able to setup private dedicated servers for competitive play in the future.

The game isn't "horrible" lol, its a well made game just a big learning curve.

Anyways back on track...I would like the option to be able to host a dedicated server on tribes as well.

I've tried it, it's pretty good. I played the first few Tribes games back in the day, and this iteration captures the fun I had with them well. The jetpack and skis are an interesting spin on the traditional FPS mechanics. Runs well clientside, and I wasn't experiencing any lag on the few servers I joined, so presumably it runs well serverside too. I didn't notice any blatant bugs or hacking while I was on, but it's still a beta, so stuff is subject to change, I suppose. I haven't tried the server software firsthand on my machine yet, too busy with college and stuff to be faffing about with more servers. :P
