Uh, it's capture the flag, run around, kill noobs, grab flag, return to your own flag.
Man, I miss playing Tribes. Nothing beats crashing one of those interceptors or whatever they were called right into the flag, killing everyone around it, grabbing the flag, and using an interceptor pack on your back to just hop in another one and fly away.

You gotta try out the Shifter mod... so many enhancements, the game is never the same without it once you've played it.
As for how to play, if you want to be offensive you can capture the flag. Or play defense. Or snipe. Or fight.... which if you do I'd recommend an energy pack and get good with the jetpack/disc launcher/plasma combo. Well you should be good with that regardless of the position you play.

Shifter mod was the one all the HF servers were running, right?

Oh wow... tribes :shocked:
I wasted so much time with that game... still remember maps like Raindance and stuff, that was some good stuff. I heard that they shut down the master servers a while ago, is that still the case? I'd love to play again if those were running.
I ran a server for a while with I think 10 player slots or so that was always filled - I had someone make custom maps for the server and so it would usually be busy. I had it setup so that after 10 players out of the 10 available were used, it would make an 11th slot and password protect it so I could get in myself

I have never played tribes. If I were to pick up a copy, what one should I get?
