It was alright, gives me tribes ascend beta vibes atm.
Problems i have with it so far is the heavy class seems to be a bit too tanky atm, the nova pistol seems way too good for picking off the light class and netcode seems to be a bit stuttery.
Otherwise it was a fun experience. I like the simple class layout and weapons I really hope it doesn't turn into what ascend did.
No monetisation yet but I believe it will be f2p. So far its 3 classes 3 primary 3 secondary weapons and it seems relatively balanced. I hope its not made p2w
Ah sounds like a gamble! Hope it works out! I'm dying for a good tribes game. My favorite was vengeance though I started playing way after it had any level of popularity.
No its a different studio that split off from hirez, however its ex hirez staff so we'll soon see if its the good or bad ones.
Although their other game starsiege deadzone took a name known to mech game fans with rich lore into a copy paste extraction shooter which feels a bit... Crappy. Also a mech game would have been great I've been yearning for one since Hawken
Interesting, cautiously optimistic then. I've interacted pretty closely with some of the Hi-Rez people back in 2015-2016 and obviously they weren't all bad.
that makes sense from a game balance standpoint. the skill floor would be pretty high if everyone could just blast around like they're on a rollercoaster. unfortunate though, the best thing about ascend was playing it like a racing game
