Tribes: Ascend Now on Steam!

[News Portal]

Highly-acclaimed free-to-play FPS Tribes: Ascend is now on Steam! To celebrate, Steam is having a sale on their 'Steam Starter Pack', for a limited time. That limited time seems unconfirmed, as one place says July 4 and another says July 5. In any case, until then, for 50% off ($10) you will get a lifetime 50% XP bonus, 4 bonus weapons, the infiltrator class and 4 weapon unlocks, the technician class and 4 weapon unlocks, 4 perks unlocks and 800 Tribes Gold. Seems like, if you're interested in playing this game at all, it might be a good investment, and certainly isn't going to break the bank.

10 bucks for a game, not too bad there.

I have had the game for a while but I bought the starter pack on steam because it has $10 of gold (which is the price of the entire pack) and a lifetime XP bonus which should help grinding 100k XP to unlock new weapons.

Played a couple games, then it crashed saying 'you have run out of memory'.
Restarted, 'Play Now' button is missing.

More like 10 bucks for 1/10th of a game, with the other 9/10ths many dollars, or many many hours >.>

T:A is ridiculously pay2win currently... and has pissed off most real tribes vets due to gameplay changes.

I thought it was fun. I'm d/loading it now and will give it a spin again to see if I want to put down $10. Shame I'm so **** at it though.

It is a 'fun' game... but it isn't tribes, and it isn't the competitive e-sport they're trying to market it as.

Just tried it out after some absence and there was lots of ownage (not by me) which made it not so fun. Perhaps everyone else has gotten better and I've gotten crapper since my last play in beta.

Not sure I've the time to stick it out with so many other games to play (yes, Skyrim I'm still addicted and Deus Ex HR is begin me to start it up too).
