Those familiar with other Tribes games know exactly what gamers are getting themselves into. The two main modes of movement – “skiing” where players slide down hillsides picking up speed and momentum, and flying or hovering using the jetpack. Funnily enough, these two elements of the game make for a strange combination: one moment you’re almost uncontrollably speeding through a firefight, so fast the enemy team barely has time to even see you’re there. The next, you’re slowly floating over them, pulling a grenade from your belt and dropping it into the mess of enemies and allies down below.
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.
