Well, wouldja lookit that. First off, the statement is false to those of us who enjoy RTSes. Second, you didn't post any sort of reasoning or proof to support your claim. Your words aren't fact, law, and absolute and perfect. Third, there's nothing saying it's a harmless opinion. See above.
Minus 5 points.

They sure can be compared. Watch closely now. One is very balanced and joyfully entertains for hours, even online. one is drastically broken and only entertains about as long as single player and your first online game. I'll let you guess which is which.

If Tribes 2 is that bad, why are you defending it?
Seems a bit crazy to me, saying how good a game is, and then mentioning just how broken it is
You are just wacky

Single player sure is long ^_^
Something I've always wondered is what the numerical armour value does for you. I understand how different armour types alter how much damage a unit takes from different damage types, but, I'm still confuzzled on the other issue.
Does it give a flat damage reduction (like, if you had level 2 armour, it reduces incoming damage by 2)?

Now, if you are trying to turn this into a Tribes 2 VS Warcraft 3 thread... such a hilarious idea, seing as how they aren't even remotely alike, go right ahead
I still stick by my original post
Warcraft 3 Tag!
But I'm sure you will retort with re-quoting a vague opinion once again, so lets get this back on topic
Deli, make one
WC3 deserves a tag more than T2, because...
PEOPLE POST ABOUT IT.
But I wouldn't compare them, nor say which one is better
It's like why I don't compare Tetris to Doom
It just doesn't make any logical sense!
I also find it amusing since most everyone that plays War3 in here would use Matti's exact description of Tribes 2, for Warcraft 3

It's broken. As a game, it stands up in single player as a beacon of what games should be. In multiplayer the instant online assheads get to it, it becomes a lesson in monotony "Rush, defend rush, Huntresses, huntresses, get a random disconnect, rush, defend rush, get called a n00b, call someone a n00b" ad nausium.
At least in tribes 2 it takes some degree of skill to win, not mouse speed, or ability to cheese out your attacks. Sure you get assheads, but the any amount of skill can easilly shut their yaps. and of course, you don't have 100,000 people using the same tactic because they know it gets them easy wins.
I can continue, but frankly, WCIII beyond single player doesn't really warrant the effort. [ 07-18-2002: Message edited by: Mattimeo ]

This one time, at Delidgamond camp:

WCIII on battle.net and Tribes 2 online.
I was fairly sure I made that clear.
OOooooooooook.
Hey, I hate Tribes 2 because I went over the hill and someone sniped me. The game obviously sucks ass

This would apply if it happened guaranteed every single time I walked over the hill. I've played quite a few games, and I have yet to play one on Battle.net that did not start with a rush, not a single one.
and I'm sorry but I don't see strategy in "lets build as fast as possible and attack gogogogo" I must be missing something if that constitutes as strategy.

Umm..Did you just compare FPS and RTS and call the RTS mindless? Did you just say FPS is better than RTS because the FPS isn't just about a fast mouse?
Are you sure you didn't type that backwards? Don't get me wrong, I love FPS games, but all an FPS is is a fast mouse. It's mindless beyond that. Ability to cheese out your attacks? Like a big gun? Skill means everything in an RTS, not a fast mouse. RTS is all about working out the perfect strategy to defeat your opponents while an FPS is nothing but muscle memory and you call RTS mindless?
I'm so glad you posted that because you just proved that RTS is better than FPS. [ 07-18-2002: Message edited by: Taeldian ]
And I havent even played online. (Which reminds me, Vorago. Teach me, damnit. Single player is fucking boring.)
Either way, T2 is a reactionary game with minimal strategy involved (Compared to Warcraft), whereas Warcraft is EXACTLY the opposite.
Now shut up before you make a fool of yourself, Matti..
Oops, too late.

Not all FPS', Tribes 2 being a big one, is not won on speed alone. This is about tribes 2, not others. Quake (any version) is just as monotonous as WarcraftIII (which you generalized under 'RTS'). I would like to see a fast mouse capture the flag in Katabatic when you didn't bother to take out the landspikes or spider clamps.
What does WarcraftIII have? how fast you can get those heros out before your oponent gets there.
