I wonder what the competitive scene is going to do with Tribes. I've seen some organized matches, but it'd be cool if the bigger leagues picked it up. Fuck, replace Halo at MLG with this.

why the fuck are you idiots talking about halo? tribes doesn't even occupy the same space or niche as halo. not even close. did you read my first post about it? this game is quake live meets team fortress classic. did you play either of those defcon, or were you too busy being a shitnoob at tf2? this game could easily replace the moribund and stagnant tf2 scene, or give the tired old quake live scene a boost. it is focussed on that sort of gameplay: fast, insane twitch, intense, requiring high teamwork and communication. why are you utter idiots still talking about halo? makes as much sense as saying "this game could replace fifa football!"

i guess tribes is in space though and professional gaming only has room for one space-themed shooter

miggle xsplit sucks i can't get it to stream on any quality without it borking my fps to 30-40 (unplayable).

also since installing it i swear my tribes performance has decreased... even with the program off. le gay.

How the fuck did I compare it to Halo you idiot.

I said MLG should replace Halo with Tribes, not that it's similar in any way.

Might wanna read before going on another of your nerd-rages.

right, because it totally makes sense to suggest they replace a game with another when you are not inferring any similarity.

why would MLG drop halo for tribes? there are new halo games coming out. halo as a scene is far from dead. why halo<->tribes?

it's a little bizarre to suggest they drop halo (a space-themed shooter) for tribes (a space-themed shooter) and then claim you weren't trying to draw comparisons.

I realize there's 99.99% chance they'd never do that, but I'd like to see it. I could've said that IPL should replace LoL with Tribes.
..Though with the LoL stream getting 120k viewers and the SC2 stream getting 50k, that's obviously not going to happen.

I'm just saying seeing something like Tribes being played at MLG would be much more fun to watch than the aim-assist snore fest that is Halo.
(I heard someone say they were watching Halo at MLG and one of the commentators said watching the screen is a skill.)

the game does have huge competitive potential. the devs update frequently and seem to be in-touch with the community. it's promising, but it's early days. tf2 was amazing in the beta/first three seasons, too. there are 'skins' in tribes, after all... it could become skin fortress.

Why halo and not cod?

Halo seems to have a way better pro scene than cod.

Why does MLG have to replace any game with another game? Just add another title to the lineup and call it a day.

I don't really see Tribes being appealing to the "le randum lolz xDDDD" people though, even if they added a fuckton of skins.
Competitive TF2 is still going strong tbh (although not compared to other big comp titles, obviously). I can't comment on the Euro scene, but ESEA S11 seems to be shaping up pretty well. No 5-0 rolls in Invite, and Open has 20 more teams than it did last season.
..and of course there's the whole Highlander thing, but those people are just weird. (Though they outnumber 6v6 players by like....five times)

Miggle: That's not the point. Any console game is a joke competition-wise, imo.

Definitely watchable. I can read most of the text and the FPS is good.

yeh it's the weapon of choice but my framerate is too shit to really take advantage of the game's movement.

it's the sort of quake-type game where you need a really high fps to be able to make the most of ski'ing and jumping. i'm trying to find a stream quality that can broadcast and give full game at the same time. i'm on lowest settrings and bordeless already

my computer is pretty decent, actually. far better than most casting systems, anyway

i5 760

blah blah

well scratch far better. but i mean i've read about people casting games on systems the same power as mine and doing it in 720p. i'm struggling to get 40fps on the lowest 320p setting. something is up. i'm gonna restart.
