TV was just about the worst tribes game ever, really no debating that.
T1 #1 in my books though. really nothing bad you can say about it. (asuming you were fully scripted ofcourse)

From what I understand AA wasn't actually that bad, it just suffered from Tribes not being very feasible on a console.

It's interesting to think about how well T2 would have done if it had been T2classic out of the box instead of base. As much as I love arena (which was superb for base physics), base turned away a lot of players from T1 who would have probably really enjoyed classic.
It's also ironic how T2classic was basically just an updated form of T1 with better graphics. The differences between the two are noticeable to those who've played them, but really minor in the grand scheme of things. Because of this T2 ended up being successful. It's too bad Vivendi and HiRez can't/couldn't continue the trend

T:V no sponsored tourneys. T:A sponsored tourneys. Basically the difference ends there. T:A will suffer the same fate too. Same game with flawed mechanics, and clowny boring competition, heck it's even built on the same old engine. No wonder it looks like a 6 year old game. LO vs LD+HoF.. booringggg.

I'm going to have to disagree with you cirrus. TA and TV are very different and have their own unique problems. TA is superior to TV in every way besides maps and vehicle balance. I believe with better maps, nerfed shrikes and a speed limit for cappers, TA can be a solid Tribes game.

So despite T:A being less of tribes game then T:V it still gets the nod as the better/funner game?

AA - Picked it up in a bargain bin just to have it...It's pretty much a straight port of one of the later versions of t2. (controls were awkward as hell)

this. also the fact that t2 was barely functional out of box (UE's LOL) made people leave

Oh... as for the issue in discussion here, Tribes Ascend is much better than Vengeance in terms of gameplay and feel... but I wouldn't consider Tribes 1 or Tribes 2 to be a "success", at least, not from a business point of view. I don't think they sold that many copies.
Anyway, I agree with Kilar. I don't think it was necessarily the gameplay that screwed things up for T2... although, yes, a lot of T1 veterans complained and moaned about the speeds...
I didn't like the nerfed speeds much either. I loved capping in T1 and the speeds were great. But I didn't mind even the base version of T2. It was slow buy playing on a team was a lot of fun. It was the damn UE's that ruined it. In competition you'd be right in a crucial match or moment and wham... a UE hit you... it was a major pain in the ass, reloading the game, getting back in the server, your team was down a player or a few players constantly... it sucked, and the UE's lasted a long time and were never really fixed. And there were other bugs that were annoying as hell too... snags in the terrain etc. :/
Classic mod was refreshing and it was great to get the T1 feel back. But by then T2 had already lost thousands of players. It's just too bad the game never really caught on. I'm glad Hi-Rez made skiing easier in Ascend, for new players, mainly by making the terrain much smoother.

Wow... it's the mighty Maradona! The guy who could turn the tide of any battle.  This is crazy... it's been like... how many years? Next thing you know, the whole RT gang is going to chime in here any moment.
This is great. I wonder how many old faces will be re-appearing. It's too bad you can't get into TA though Mara. I can understand your feelings though. Heavy O in TA just feels weird, and I know that was your favorite position. You used to just dominate in fatty. But I still think you could play your old style, just have to adjust it somehow. Although, I know you could play any position back in the day, if memory serves.... When was the last time you played TA? Have you played with all of the latest updates etc.?
I miss the old days of T2 classic with you guys. The big matches on TWL...
We didn't have that many shots at #1, but those games were so intense. Or maybe it was just me who was intense... you were always one of the level headed guys on the team dave.
Anyway, long time no see, to both of you guys. I watched your match vs Mofo dave. All three maps. I wanted to see what the competition is like. It was surprisingly a lot like the old days of T2. Faster paced, quicker to get back into the action after spawning... but other than that, very similar.
I've been messing around with TA a bit. Haven't quite gotten the feel for it completely, and my ping sucks cause I'm living in Japan. So I don't think I'll be getting into competition soon, even though I have plenty of free time to do so and it's kind of tempting....
Well... as you can see, I haven't gotten tired of writing long winded forum posts.
