Fireblasto, I'd expect you to be a Starcraft II person with the Protoss sig. I also started playing TF2 and Counter-strike: Source, name is still mausgang.

I've announced this clan on the subforum already, but I'll just post again here. I've started a clan, see the thread for information, Its DFC or Die FlugenClan, if there's a second page of threads, that's where it will be. Anyways, pm me or post on the thread if you'd like to join. Frankly, I'll...

Wow, I've been quoted in a sig. I'm a little honored.

Okay, as a resolution, somebody else, volt, I think, had the brilliant idea of weapons tethers and I love the idea. Basically, you have the option to go to these things, plug a weapon of yours in and it gives you different advantages. You can't move everywhere with it, but you can still move out...

Yes, Hawk, that is the basic strategy. LO (I know some people, including myself, call them llamas) are a necessary part of keeping CTF going. If a capper goes through and the HoF is looking, it sucks to cap. Llamas may be a pain for the HoF, but they are only there because there's an HoF...

Okay, this is way sounds way better than turrets. Here's what I would say about the new advantages given to each weapon would be. Chaingun: unlimited ammo, less spread Rocket launcher: three times as many rockets, hire rate of fire and the rockets have a higher velocity laser rifle: more...

Also, in PUBs the votekick can be abused just to kick unhelpful players. This is why I would rather have an autokick feature for TKers.

Wow, I leave this thread for 20 hours and there's a whole lot more. There are some great arguments for both sides. I'd agree with Fireblasto that we may need deployables but not necessarily the ones used in Tribes. Mines, while being a seemingly good idea for boobytrapping routes to the base, in...

I know, and I thought the death message had everything to do with collisions, gheist. When somebody, say 57thplayer, was in overdrive and plowed through somebody, say mausgang, and mausgang died, then the death message would be "Mausgang learned something about overdrive FROM 57thplayer" When...

This is why we're talking about facebook and youtube. Its free and still gets the word out. As Seymour and Gheist said, it makes more sense for the game to be playable before the community really starts in with the advertising and spreading the word around.

The light trail would be awesome, and make catches easier. Also, you don't need to stab with the flag to kill in collisions. Have you ever gotten the death message "[player] learned something about overdrive from [other player]"?

With forgotten, its hard to turn around and go back through the center while keeping your momentum, you can OD, but then its a nice shot for any halfway decent sniper to take you out and get the flag back. Much easier to go in through the front, out the back and to the side. The health...

I've never seen raindance, but if it doesn't have hills, it wouldn't work in Legions, just saying. maps in legions need to work with the skiing, since skiing is more integral to legions than Tribes is.

Stick and stuffing. Enryu won't be happy about that one. Back to topic, I still stand by the hologram fail-ag (I don't want to say falg, so instead, a mix between fail and flag, since it doesn't wave and that's what flags do) The fail-ag is more indicative of the time frame, the future. The...

Yes, I was talking to you, I have a bad habit of not quoting and not always getting to the bottom, I'm trying to fix that, and mustang? Vinzyboy, I like it.

The beacon wouldn't be visible to the enemy team. Also, not necessarily a flying base, there needs to be balance, and so it would need to be slow and on the ground. On an epic map, it may be too slow to ever get to the actual base where the flag is. Also, with Epic games, there should be more...

Nice sig, redink. Anyways. I think a point system would make sense, also, only allowing one of each. One rocket launcher (instead of two rocket launchers or an RL and the RL mk. II) However, if it is possible to have two of the same type of weapon in the loadout, then the ammo should be shared...

It might seem unfair, but if you set it at one color before you enter a party, and can't change it during gameplay, then you make a gamble. You might be very well camouflaged on Nivosus and Frostbyte, but then you'd stick out like a sore thumb on the rest of them. especially on core and quarry...

Health packs would probably be something that you would just run over and heal a set amount of health, while not doing anything if you're already full up on health. They could be in the bases and sniper towers (before you complain about sniper towers having health, if a sniper holes up in one...

If we go with a battlefront method of mobile bases. There could, instead of a 'driver' be one person with a beacon, who sets the beacon and then the mobile base moves itself that way. This could lead to people who are being silly and immature take over and lead the base astray. How exactly would...
