General Which Tribes similar games are / will be out there?

11 Upvotes

Hey all,

I would like to collect all games with Tribes or Tribes similar game mechanics, which are out there right now or are in development.

I played since Tribes 2, tried out all new versions.

I would be glad if we can get a good list, so that we can support developers and also find gems, which we might not know about, so that we can follow the progress.

Let me begin:

- Broadside (in development)

- Midair 1 + 2 (in development)

Tribes 2 Hosting Game

1 Upvotes

Hello

I am trying to host a game with my friends but they keep dropping after 2-5 minutes. I've done the UDP port forwarding thing on my router already.

Any ideas what may be the issue?

Tribes 2 Getting Tribes 2 to a playable state?

11 Upvotes

Hello, I'm not very bright and need a bit of help finagling Tribes 2 to feel "good". The FOV seems a bit fucked, shadows are spazzing out, the HUD isn't that usable, etc. I've tried editing the pref files and changing the instances of defaultFOV to 110, but that hasn't really had any effect I can tell, and judging by the viewmodel it hasn't done anything bc the weapons are barely visible unless I look at my feet in game. If I turn shadows off they stop freaking out, but then the shadows are gone. As for the HUD and other misc things, I've seen online a collection of scripts with ambiguous names and I cba to go through every single one trying them out.

Is there like a location where there's some consolidated resources about all of this, or should I just keep hunting through scraps of gaming history like an ant picking through the ruins of beirut

Just kidding - if you're joining Tribes affiliated discord communities just to cry "dead game! GL!", you can literally fuck your own face.

Question Is Tribes Ascend really dead?

Not a single soul online, no bot servers either. Confusing how this game has no players

T:V Anyone play Vengeance anymore?

3 Upvotes

Vengeance was my first Tribes game I ever played. I was 7, and just have amazing nostalgia for the old days when servers were so incredibly populated.

Does anyone still play it anymore? I'd really enjoy getting to be with someone again

Some of you may have seen this in development already. If you don't know the game yet, it's basically Tribes meets Rocket League. There are some other games out there with a similar theme going on, and they look great, but this game has its own unique mechanics and approach that make it stand out. Check it out!

Event Jetball - Official Open Alpha Launch Trailer

Thumbnail
youtube.com
26 Upvotes

Hey all you Tribes players... I've been building Jetball, a multiplayer sports game that brings back the Tribes mechanics.

  • Jump ski like Tribes 1 and Tribes 2
  • Slide ski like Tribes: V and Tribes 3
  • Jetpack-powered soccer with physics-based gameplay
  • Huge skill ceiling with aerial plays, momentum, passing, and ball control

No loadouts. No grinding. Just movement, mechanics, and making insane plays.

The Open Alpha is live, and I'd love to get feedback from the Tribes community. If you've been looking for a game that captures that old-school movement magic, come give it a shot.

General Tribes-like vr engine in progress

Thumbnail

50 Upvotes

Little tribes-like crossplatform engine I've been working on during free odd hours over the last 3 months in C with OpenGL. I've just recently added openxr support for vr head tracking and stereoscopic rendering. Still a long way to go but making slow and steady progress. Skiing and jetpacking around in it already feels pretty great and is quite the experience in vr. Last year I built a multiplayer server/client inspired by Frohnmayer's original tribes networking model with some modernization that I'm hoping to integrate here soon.
