Speaking on Reddit, Erez, Hi-Rez’s co-founder, spoke about a potential port for Tribes: Ascend to consoles which never happened. Despite several publishers showing interest in the prospect of having Tribes on a home console, they all thought the game was “too niche and difficult” for consoles and some major gameplay alterations would have to be made in order to appeal to a mainstream audience. Such alterations would have to include a slower game pace, reworked or completely removed “skiing”, basically remove everything that separates Tribes from your average sci-fi shooter.
Online games have become the pastime of choice for everyone, no matter their age. And here's a list of the best free online games for 2017.
Back in March of 2013, Hi-Rez broke the news to its Tribes: Ascend fans that they would need to take several months away from the game in order to focus all its efforts on SMITE. Several months became more than two years, and fans were beginning to believe that Hi-Rez would simply never return to Tribes.
But the recent 1.1 update -- a.k.a. the Out of the Blue Update -- has proven those naysayers wrong.
If you thought Hi-Rez Studios were done with Tribes Ascend, think again. Today they are launching a major update to the free to play shooter that fans of the original games might just approve of.
wtf? what a bunch of morons. Tribes : Aerial Assault was on ps2! Make it happen on ps3 or ps4! Tribes: AA was THE number one game I played online, I was in my first clan in that game. Wish it was back on consoles.
