Everything in the game is a projectile. Even the sniper (which was hitscan and very OP in T:A).

The core Tribes weapons, the disc launcher (called ring launcher in this game), the grenade launcher, and the chaingun are in this game. In T:A the chain gun was well overutilized, it has been toned down in this game (and is also 100% inheritance which is different). The disc is a little faster and better overall, and the grenade launcher is leagues better. You hold 3 weapons as a light in this game, 4 as a medium (not yet in the game), 5 as a heavy. This is also different from T:A.

The biggest change over T:A is the lag compensation on all weapons and projectiles. If you are under 150ms ping (the current value, may be changed), it should feel like playing near 0 ping with all weapons. T:A only had lag compensation on hitscan weapons. Right now, cross-sea gameplay is happening frequently and works really well (NA vs EU anyone?).

It came and fizzled as expected. That game is like if you took a real Tribes game and made it 10x less interesting. It had major pieces of the puzzle missing, like side objectives adjacent to CTF (the generator didn't mean anything).

This game is a completely different beast.

A little frag film I made for the game. It's already awesome imo.

Ah shit, thanks. Didn't know PRJ made one. :P

Hi, I feel like this game could be of interest to the TFTV community since it shares some similarities (most notably it's a very team-centric, high-skill FPS). If you don't know what Tribes is, it's a video game series that came out in 1998 with it's last installment in 2012 (Tribes: Ascend). Ascend wasn't received well by the hardcore Tribes crowd, so some players from the community who had previously worked on successful projects together decided to make their own Tribes-like called Midair.

Here's the Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/archetypestudios/midair

It's not some pipe dream fantasy Kickstarter game, it's playable and already awesome. I've been testing this game for months along with other core Tribes community members and here's a short gameplay frag film I made: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFj3ChJf9C4

If you like CTF (the main gametype), high-skill games, or jetpacks, check it out.
