Nearly every battle in Tribes: Ascend begins with a downhill rush. This act alone tells you roughly half as much as you need to know about Hi-Rez Studios’ free-to-play team shooter. Fire your anti-friction boots as those first smooth mountain slopes rise to greet you and gravity will do the rest, whipping your armour-encased future warrior up to giddy speeds. The other bit you learn a fraction of a second later when you crest the next hill and soar into the air, jetpack flaring to adjust your parabola. Ski down and jet up: this is almost everything in Ascend, tracing a series of arcs across each arena’s undulating terrain to form one big arc from friendly flag stand to enemy flag and back.
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.
critics seem to like it, needs to be on the frontpage of steam!
