I was so chuffed when you compared it to Tiny Wings, that was my first thought when I played this :)

Does self propulsion work with a Stealth Spinfusor (I have yet to unlock it)?

[vol1tion]

@FlissyRS Yep, the stealth spinfusor works for self-propulsion as well.

I'm wondering, how do you control your directions when you ski ?

[vol1tion]

@bulletbeltSC2 The same way you do on the ground, by using WASD. Holding a movement key in the air will affect your direction, but it naturally becomes more difficult to change your path as you reach higher speeds.

can you geton consles

@TheZombieslayer63 o_O

@chocoboy02 Skiing up slopes is a very bad habit? I'm not sure how one would get down a slope without first going up it.

And I toggle skiing on and off, so I'm not physically holding a key to ski the entire time. Again, I'm not sure how that would be considered a bad habit.

not a single nade was used to demostrate the speed gain you get from them. I feel like the nades are better for speed than the spinfusor.

would you be able to tell me what graphics card you are using for tribes ascend and what graphics card you would recommend.

Never ski while falling, only on surfaces.

@vol1tion some people think skiing over the slope is better than riding a slope up

@esopbelac94 *repeatedly jump not hold

[esopbelac94]

I personally have not played ascend, but back in T:AA if you held jump while descending on slopes it improved your skiing tremendously.
