    I'm wrong about the Devestator Spinfusor in the video. It has a larger explosion radius AND does more damage direct hits - but non-directs do less damage. Weird.

    Devastator was updated, it now has a larger radius compared to heavy spinfusor, but does less damage in radius but it still has that insane direct hit that's 200 higher then heavy spinfusor.

  • @grumpyman2
    @grumpyman2 12 років тому +1

    You can rocket jump in lots of games. It's really important in Tribes, because speed and mobility are everything.

  • @sladikk
    @sladikk 12 років тому

    Extra ammo, more health, and faster regen can be earned simply by playing. They might be upgrades, but it only takes a few games to upgrade them. Some weapons, however, are direct upgrades; for example, DMBs have the option of either the weakest grenade in the game or mines for 100k xp.

  • @XeroGameplayOnly
    @XeroGameplayOnly 12 років тому +1

    I really liked you're direct hit. Love the sound of "Ka-ching!" :D
    btw, the brute's Devastator Spinfusor does a higher direct hit damage and a bigger explosion radius. It's just that it's splash damage is smaller (700max) compare to the normal splash damage (750max)

    Keep playing, and keep trying to hit people in midair. Eventually you start doing it without thinking about it. It's muscle memory. you see movement, and your hand tracks it and fires when the timing is right for it. It can't be learned as a "trick" it just takes hours of practice. Happy playing!

  • @sladikk
    @sladikk 12 років тому

    Such is the nature of Tribes. Sometimes you'll give blue plates to the face, take down shrikes with your ARX, and mortar people from across the map while skiing at 200mph+, and sometimes you'll just flat out suck. Once you know how to do something, pure practice is the best way to get better.

  • @sladikk
    @sladikk 12 років тому

    Well, if you count earning new weapons and perks, yes, it does take a lot more than a few games. But extra ammo, more health, faster regen, better packs, etc. can be earned quickly.

  • @sladikk
    @sladikk 12 років тому

    The best way to learn how to hit stuff in Tribes is to learn how to predict your enemies' movement. Hit where they will be, not where they are. This takes practice, but you'll get better the more you play. I sucked when I started, but I practiced and got much better.

  • @DeTovergieter
    @DeTovergieter 12 років тому

    People, he didn't mention this in the video but if you're gonna play tribes, do it through his link in the description. He gets xp for it.
    I do wonder how much time money he's put into this game, he has all the weapons and bodyshots like a pro. That's what I don't like about tribes, if you want to get good at it and actually enjoy playing, you gotta put a ton of money or time in it first.

  • @sladikk
    @sladikk 12 років тому

    What I did when I started learning how to do Tribes is I used cheap tactics; I camped the generator in CTF. While this usually does almost nothing for your team, it's good for getting your head on straight before trying more difficult things. After that, practice in TDM for dueling and flagrunning and in C&H for defense and capping.

  • @WTFisAbearPicnic

  • @Pizza_is_old
    @Pizza_is_old 12 років тому

    well, i'm not discrediting him or anything, he really is a good player, but heavy discs have a larger hitbox(since they are larger) and they spin in the air after they come out of the rails at the end of the gun. that means that for a little while after they fire, the discs are diagonal and have a slightly higher chance of direct-hitting.
    I also find that i get blue plates more often with the heavy spinfusor.

  • @ster
    @ster  12 років тому +1

  • @Aukerai
    @Aukerai 12 років тому

    i did say that, it gives up 50 damage. so what? it STILL 2shots a medium, and instead of 1050 direct contact, it does 1204. Add this to a larger AoE, and the devastator is much better for heavy dueling (MAs) and medium dueling (Splash), AND base asset destruction (again, MAs). The 'sidegrade' isn't really much when you consider how much extra stuff you get. hence why I call it an upgrade.

  • @kwik5150

    I must buy that devastator spinfusor. Im terrible at direct hits, but it just looks so sexy.

  • @Aukerai
    @Aukerai 12 років тому

    To Star: The Devastator Spinfusor actually has a LARGER radius than the stock fusor, over a smaller one... it's sadly almost a direct upgrade, as it only really gives up a measly 50 damage.

  • @sladikk
    @sladikk 12 років тому

    It's easier to predict the motion of a fast-moving target than a slower moving one.

  • @ster
    @ster  12 років тому

    It's not as bad as it could be. You have to put $60 into BF3 before you're even allowed to unlock things.

  • @sladikk
    @sladikk 12 років тому

    1. Jetpacking
    2. Yes, yes, OH GOD YES. Disc jumping in Tribes is more effective than in ANY other game. If all that you care about is going fast, then you should and will do whatever it takes to go fast. If you have the option between two different spinfusors, though, choose the one that takes out less of your health; you'll need all the jumps you can fit in.

    Yeah, a few of their hitscan weapons are based off real weapons--for example, another secondary for the Brute is inspired by a Colt .45.

    Actually, the devastator spinfusor has a larger explosive radius. Only downside of it? It does a whole 50 less splash damage.
    Straight upgrade.

  • @Absurdistof
    @Absurdistof 12 років тому

    I know you've probably hear this often, these people aren't criminals for trying to get you to pay for a game worth at least $30. Many new weapons present different play styles. You realize this once you get the weapon, not when you're getting killed by it. The only class that is better non-vanilla is PTH. Literally every other class is played very close to vanilla (exception as DMB or SEN).

    As in you do less damage if you miss a direct hit, but you also end up doing small damage if you completely miss.

    Take that comment with a grain of salt though, I've never argued that the model is a good one, and leans heavily in favor of purchases, but it hovers just outside the pay to win threshold. besides, for us comp players, weapons either: a. get nerfed to oblivion by hirez (PG) or B. Banned (jackal, smokes, PG, 1 SEN limit etc)

    I've seen pretty much all worthwhile Tribes videos(there's a limited number at the moment), and there are tons of crazy things people do that you'd think would be impossible. For example, there's this guy called Pumpelche that plays a Juggernaut at AMAZING speeds, and he has some pretty sweet montages. The end of this video is especially awesome. /watch?v=yZKgaD0o-BU

    Because he has a gaming channel, and the more xp he has, the more good footage he can show us. Isn't that what we're subscribed for, to see good content? And it's not like you lose anything but some time. I really don't like your "If I'm not getting xp then no one is" attitude.

    "few games" in reality means at least a hundred games to fully outfit one class. I've probably played a few dozen games since I first started playing and have only gotten 30% done with the soldier class

  • @tmar23
    @tmar23 12 років тому

    Fractals are hardly a problem since they can be easily avoided. More and more people have noticed that it requires less skill to auto people down. Add to that the god awful screen shake when getting hit by a couple of auto tards and having to judge your shots is even harder. They need to add massive recoil to autos and and add accuracy decrease at distance.

    You should play soldier with the AR/Thumper DX with quickswap perk (preferably with the shortfuse nades and safety third too). Amazing for dueling, and you'll top frag every time if you aren't looking to do anything else other than frag people.

    I think YOU don't get what p2w means.
    It's not just the EXCLUSIVE thing.
    That's what Niichts said as well.
    There's pay to accelerate and that.
    The game is really slow to get cash and all, so that's what makes it p2s.
    I don't play those other games, but I play Tribes: Ascend, and it still makes it p2w.
    I never said it was not f2p. A game can be p2w even if it's not exclusive.
    Plus, something you might not know, but when the plasma gun came out OVERPOWERED, only people with gold could get it.

    This is the second time I've come back to this video and really wanted to get back into tribes. The problem is, last time I did end up starting to play, and I was garbage. I told myself to keep practising and trying to get better just by playing, but eventually I really couldn't make myself keep playing. I know there aren't tips that will instantly make me better, but is there at least a game type or really anything that you think will make trying to learn much less frustrating?

  • @Aukerai
    @Aukerai 12 років тому

    I guarantee that the PG was available for 100k xp on release. and yes, the exclusive thing is what makes true pay to win, it is buying power. Gold Bullets from world of tanks is an excellent example. I never suggested that the model was good, or easy for F2P players. And hi-rez has taken numerous steps to improving their model. (from the accelerate patch to reducing xp costs down from 175k xp/item to 88k) It's still not the best, but its a far cry from what it used to be.
