Tribes 2 was just heartbreaking. It was cool in so many ways. There's nothing like the thrill of jet-packing over the landscape, firing blue disks at the ground far below. The graphics, sound, music, and weapons were so well done, but the single-player, vehicles, AI, and many of the levels just sucked. They tried so hard to get you to organize tactically, with turrets, sensors, vehicles and stuff, but it just didn't work. Most people just ended up playing Hunters or Deathmatch. Any CTF games were just free-for-alls. The bots were morons. Some of the layouts of the bases were just stupid. The tactical end of things would have been nice in a real campaign, but that was lacking. It was kind of depressing.
But, here's Tribes: Vengence. It's looking good. I'm getting a little excited. It's actually got a plot and a campaign! Weapons and vehicles look as cool as ever too. Sierra Entertainment and Irrational games: don't fuck this up!
