Thsi game, which was made in 2012, is better than any FPS I've played in 2016-17! A bit underpopulated, but that can change if you get it too! 11/10, FPS needs more skiing.

Do not dare hate in this game, it is one of the best games of all time, a whole new concept, yes the devs abandoned it because the world is not ready for games like it yet, it is very specific in the realm of games. One day when people realize games like titanfall 2 destiny 1-2 and others as good they will turn towards the tribes franchise again. As for the player base, your not helping by abandoning it. Stick to it the devs have said they will be watching the Player count. If they see a few thousand they will consider it a new age of gaming, and make a sequel. Please help carry on tribes legacy

This game makes you feel SO awesome. You can run, then jetpack all the way up into the air, then ski super fast when you hit the ground. In Capture The Flag, when you capture it, the music changes to make you feel like a TOTAL bada##. Get it.

I played a solid 50 hours on it and it was great when it lasted! I remember having so much fun with my friends playing this game. Its so fast paced with lots of variety of guns and other equipments. You could customize your loudouts for every class. It's an AWESOME GAME. It's definently worth trying out. One down side is that it is only multiplayer and any multiplayer games get boring after a while.
