5.0 out of 5 stars you aint played multi play games until you've played tribes2, July 17, 2004

Simply put, this game is a kick azz killer.Even though it's about 4 years old, the graphics are great and the gameplay fun as ever. However, tribes has a steep learning curve (took me about 4 months to be able to hold my own) The training missions do help quite a bit (that AI could have some nasty aim) But the skillz will come with time. Team work is great (provided you join a decend team) Nothing is more satisfying than seeing your clanmates fight to retake their base that was overrun after an enemy invasion, load up a couple of bombers and bomb the enemy back to the iron age, then getting some guys in the enemy base too take it over - Then parking a tank or two and a Mobile point base with a morter turrent right next to the enemy base to maximize damage. If you get tribes, you will be in for some epic battles on land, in the air, and underwater. Don't miss out on this one ;) see ya on the battle field

4.0 out of 5 stars So much promise, pity it was rushed, May 13, 2004

Tribes 2 had so much potential when it was under developement. Teamplay, integrated clan support, ability to use vehicles, infinate distance engine etc...

Even though the game was made some time ago the graphics still look great, it runs smoothly and can be great fun.

Unfortunately, Sierra seem to have forced Dynamix to rush it out the door (Dynamix soon closed after the release) meaning many promising features where left half finished. The command screen interface for instance looked fantastic, but is ultimately fairly useless for genuinely controlling a team. The community features all shut down soon after release and the flurry of patches that came out afterwards failed to address all issues before Dynamix went under.

A real shame...but still great fun to play
