Huh, it gave me more keys. Sent footkerchief and ductape keys.

I'm enjoying the infiltrator class. Not very good at it yet, but it's fun. I keep ending rounds with only like 0.5 kill ratio due to all the random deaths I keep getting from skiing into grenades or slamming into people going 200 and such. A class with more life is a little more forgiving there, heh. Getting in and blowing the generator, then taking out the guy trying to repair it with a knife in the back really makes all those worthwhile though. Should be much easier once I unlock the two -25% stealth cost upgrades so I don't have to unstealth so much.

Playing on that map with the two ships, I kept blowing the enemy radar and the enemy team kept repairing it. I got to where I'd skii by stealthed at 150 and drop a sticky grenade on the dish, then come back and knife whoever was trying to repair it.


Oh, and ductape, you don't have to order it to play it later. It's a free game, their business model is selling boosters and gold. With the beta key you can play it, and you can unlock classes with tokens just from playing. Spending money on it only lets you unlock classes immediately (gold) or doubles your xp/token gain (booster).

Excuse me, but if anyone has an extra beta key I would also love to have one.

O.O

As soon as I get my computer back into gear I gotta ask for a shot at this. I still consider Tribes 1 the best game of all time for me. A huge part of my childhood was in T1 and 2.

Again, if your an escaped lunatic your probably not going to get a key.

We don't just hand out things to people who just signed up.

"We" aren't regdate elitists, so don't act like that.

You're on the B12 forums, and you don't consider yourself elitist? Theres something wrong with you.

We're like the epitome of elitism.

Holy shit, sticky grenades can stick to people! I just threw a sticky and stuck it on a guy's HEAD who was running in front of me. I'm not sure if he noticed it, he just kept walking until he exploded. There should totally be a special merit for sticking a sticky grenade to someone's head.

That was the first round as an infiltrator I got more kills than deaths, and a third of them were from sticking grenades to people. I even managed to tag one onto a jumper who was skiing past, I just stood there stealthed and stuck it on him as he flew by and he blew up a few seconds later.

[Frumple]

Fair question: Was "hax" screamed at you at some point?

[Imofexios]

Any keys left or how i get in ?
Tribes 1 was a blast and this one sure sounds super fun time too.

I always thought the general rule when it came to handing out free things such as giving away free games and beta keys was that you couldn't be an escaped lunatic. It's sort of to promote being an actual member of Bay12 and not just someone who just comes to get free stuff.

[Bilbo991]

Alright, I've lurked for a while and saw the thread so I made an account. I suppose it was worth a try.

[Drakale]

I think blue plate special is just hitting them once with the spinfuser and killing them. Its usually light armoured targets that happens too.

I find travelling too fast (like 200km/h) really really difficult to keep up, like initial burst of speed then I hover around 150, I can't shoot _anything_ that fast

It's all about angle, like in ww2 era flight simulators. Hitting someone going parallel to you at 200 km/h is actually not that hard, but a high deflection shot take a lot of luck to pull off. The most fun is closing in on an unsuspecting player going fast and shanking him with melee. I actually prefer to zoom in at 200, hit a bump+jetpack to convert it to height and pick a target to stalk.

Wow, this need a Fist of the North Star accolade.

[Jopax]

Ooooh, jetpack combat, color me interested (that and TB did a nice video on this).
Would someone mind sparing a key for me sometimes after the next two weeks (internet is crap so I can't really play it right away).

[Paul]

Sent Imofexios and Bilbo991 keys.

He posted just to get the key, but eh, as long as people keep sending them to others its not a problem getting more - each person that downloads it automatically gets two more.

[Bilbo991]

Thanks much, and I'll give you my keys.
