The Icarus ruined Quakewars, just like skiing ruined Tribes

Most of my Tribes playing was in Clan Orderly Fashion as [cOF] FeaRog. We mostly played Shifter on Australian servers, so you’ve probably never heard of me :wink:

Well you just sold atleast one copy of ET:QW.
:clap:


(Wils) #83

Shifter noob :uhoh:

Still… could be worse, could have been a Renegades player :stuck_out_tongue:


(Phoenix[cnlm]) #84

Hehe I was going to be nice and not say anything… :smiley:


(Panda_Star) #85

believe it or not I do remember cOF

I will admit I don’t remember individual teammembers but the teams I still remember.


(FeaRog) #86

Woah, someone remembers us! :smiley:

I liked Shifter mainily because of their extra light class, made for some good skiing :slight_smile:

Hey FeaRog,

Long time no see, I was looking around on the net for any remnants of my old Tribes life (pre marriage, house, kids) and I found a mention of cOF

It’s cOF-AustinPowers here :slight_smile: (aka RD-AustinPowers, |ApC|AustinPowers, HA|OF-AustinPowers)

I’m glad to see someone remembers the old days of shifter. Makes me feel old thinking I was playing Tribes back in the 90’s for a few hours every day.

I’m lucky to get a game of anything in these days… sigh

Anyway, just thought I’d pop my head in and say g’day.

^ well you know what do do then, buy Quake Wars and get slap bang up to date and enjoy the tribes mod when it comes along!


(FeaRog) #89

Small world! Good to see another old cOF member floating around - I’ve got the IM details of a few other members, if you want them fire me a PM :slight_smile:

I love you FeaROG and I want to have your babies.

Anywho… It’s pretty inspiring to see some much tribes <3 here and so awesome to know that people want to make a tribes mod. I’m pretty well connected in EU tribes:v and am sure that (if properly informed) tons of people would shift to et:qw for their regular tribes fix :> Am almost certain that the same can be said for the USA t:v guys as well :D.

/me goes to spam some channels

nah noway did skiing kill tribes it made it stronger, the only thing that killed the tribes series was the idiots
who programmed the 2nd and 3rd instead of giving us a tribes 2 with the same feel of tribes 1 they tried to
make something better which didnt work twice over…

I still play the 1st tribes on splatterfest server and its still the most best gameplay & teamplay game ive ever had to this date…


(MastroLindo) #92

sci-fi, i think u have understand th right meaning of that sentence :stuck_out_tongue:


(SCi-Fi) #93

:stuck_out_tongue: i know but still wot i said abt the devs were right they did a crap job on 2 & 3 :wink:


(Rhoades) #94

I think people are going to be dissapointed if they think ET:QW will be like tribes.


(Wongo) #95

there talking about making a Tribes mod Rhoades.


(whoever) #96

bump I wonder what the devs have in mind. :roll:


(Nail) #97

(k0k0nat) #99

Did u play the final game for a long time?

I think im 2 dumb ,heh?

See the first pages. “skiing ruined tribes” is an inside-joke, so this probably applies for the rest as well.
