This is my favorite game of all time! So many fond memories and getting yelled at by the wife to quit laughing so loud while she's trying to sleep. I've already warned her. It's starting again!
do people still play Tribes CTF like they use to? i use to be good friend with members of the clan S3, before it disbanned and turned to Vanguard. z0dd you still around or bluenose or anyone----my name was Messiah, and i was in Ghost| for a short time then Fog
Everyone who enjoys this vid needs to search for the game (starsiege tribes) full patch everything man its so badass complements to those who do from UwS Dek!!!
@DudemanClide yes for a boxed in map fps, like quake, like Doom, like unreal etc. Tribes was one of the first fully immersivet team battle based FPS with buildings, vehicles, deployables etc. The CTF was unmatched once jump skiing was discovered. It innovated so much of what people take for granted in many titles today. Yet none of them utilize jetpacks and jump skiing like Tribes.
You've apparentally heard the same song just with a different title, if you look up Flutlicht and his albums, there's a song named The Flight. I supose some fan put it up on utube just naming it whatever word he/she heard the most.
I purchased this game in 1999 when it first came out and played till around 2005. This was honestly the BEST game I have played online and still is to this very day. I only stopped playing due to the community seemingly dieing out.
Lemme tell ya, turrets are completely useless if the player's speed is high enough. They won't get a chance to hit 'em, even though they're quite accurate.
that cloak of night heavy back cap was pretty cool. i got the inspration to try it out and was able to get rocket-mined all the way back to the flag on a single jet (without having to ski). pretty good feeling.
Practice. People would practice flag runs constantly in public games or make their own games and just do it solo. It became second nature to do a heavy flag run with skiing and without stopping.
I know one of the reasons why a lot guys played as the female model in light armor, because it was a smaller target, but were their any other reasons?
And were there any reasons to play as Male Light armor?
Wip3ou7...thanks for the memories! Tribes is my all-time favorite computer game; and I've been playing computer games since 1972! What they did with Tribes: Vengeance was a crying shame and killed an awesome franchise! I used to run the Rumble Clan (as Devildog74) running our own server using a custom Tribes 2 Meltdown mod tweaked by Mr.Keen for us. When T:V came out, we tried to make some good mods but...Vivendi's coders made it impossible to do *sigh*. Anyhow, thanks for the memories.
long live tribes. after this game and especially after the state it developed into, there has been no games that could've taken it's place. so many good memories, so much people I wouldn't have known otherwise.
The Heavy flying on Rollercoaster is NOT a mod...it's sLaM's famous heavy cap that actually happened in a match between The Sticks and NuTz, which makes it all the more impressive: the fact that it happened during competitive play.
Tribes defined the FPS multiplayer genre for me. Unfortunately, it defined it so well that I haven't found anything that has filled its void. I look at games like Halo 3 and cringe at how slow it seems to me. I'm glad to see that people still tout the virtues of this great game.
Ya man, halo is insaaaaaaanely slow, what ever happened to the days of tribes and unreal? I have hope that there will someday be a badass game that will rival the greats.
If you get the whole jump ski concept down you can go damn fast. But just be aware most of the guys from the old T1 days had highly scripted configs of the game. For example base Tribes 1 did not have easy skiing like T2 or TV.
cont.. There were scripts and exe's to make jump skiing in T1 similiar to what it is today in games like T2 or TV. Also in those days if you had ISDN or better you were Godly if you were on a pub with a bunch of modem players. The scene of the Heavy flying is probably more a mod, but a lot of people were that good.
Amazing video. You sir, just brought on a wave of nostalgia for gaming days (greater) past. Thank you. Tribes is proof that even the very best games can be overlooked by the general population. Battlefield is the anathema to that.
video is aweomse. never played legacy but ive played tribes for 7 years. seems the disc has more of a rocket launcher exploision to it. dont remember disc being able to launch you that hard without doing a lot of damage to female armor. but good job keeping it alive
Tribes is one of the most unique, challenging, and downright exhilarating multiplayer games ever made. I have yet to find a team fragfest that can come close to matching the sheer speed and explosive excitement Tribes provides in every round.
3:11 - 3:22 was by far the better grab
