If you like to think on your feet rather than just point and shoot at anything that moves, if you like fighting on a nearly endless (and endlessly diverse) landscape, if you like driving anti-gravity vehicles, if you like extreme mobility, if you put teamwork ahead of frag counts, or if you're good at projectile physics, you'll love Tribes 2.
Tribes has held my interest longer than any other game I've ever owned, except maybe EQ.

Well yeah, but only if you carry around deployable paintball turrets, three classes of paintball-armor with corresponding weapon capacity, paintball vehicles that travel at high speeds or shoot paintball mortars or drop paintball bombs, and everyone has jetpacks.
And you have paintball generators that supply your paintball guns and power your base mounted paintball turrets and force fields. [ 07-30-2001: Message edited by: Maradon? ]

Vehicles that shoot paintball mortars always leave those big welts. The kind that seem to just linger around for a couple weeks.

True, but your discription of: thinking on your feet, mobility, teamwork, and projectile physics describes tournament paintball to a T. If you're good at one, you'd likely enjoy the other, but tournament paintball does require a bit more physical effort.

Tribes RPG? Explain plz k thx.
Not that you'll ever be l33t liek jeff k, though.
seriously, i've always hated fps games like quake and doom and half-life, but tribes owns all. the strategy and comraderie and skill involved provide a unique environment like none on the market that i've seen. plus you dont have to commit 5 to 10 hours a night to get your fix =)

Tribes RPG is a mod for Tribes 1 that utterly changes the entire game. A review for it in PCGamer conveyed just how astounded they were at how far from Tribes 1 the mod had taken the game.
Unfortunatly, it's still server based, so if you log off you lose your character.
