Oh man I got the edition that had the manual, the players guide and the soundtrack.
Great package, even better game
What really happened to Sierra?
Pfft. Bases are the little things you have until 3 minutes in the game when a skiing lance of heavies mortars your shit into oblivion.
Real men die with what they spawn with and consider energy packs, mines, or grenade launchers as gifts from the Gods.
It'd be sweet if there were VODs or something of these matches, I'd watch it
I loved camping guys like you. Jerk
I think it's likely that Sierra had more to do with a buggy game getting released than a studio that had a pretty good track record for putting out stable products. Starsiege, for instances, was fine right off the shelves.
yeah this was always my assumption, sierra pushed the game out too early which lead to the patches for 2 years, sierra pretty much earned my spite for life when they gutted dynamix, they definitely were and still are my favorite dev team
Theyre on Youtube
This happened after Havas/Vivendi bought Sierra. The company became a lot more corporate, apparently, and Sierra was torn apart, too.
That explains why Babylon 5: Into the Fire was cancelled at the same time. So much rage over that one too. That would have probably been my favorite Space Sim of all time.
Edit: Since I got BotPed
Xbox GT Tommatt
And let's face it, Sierra in that time period were a bit of dicks.
No, I'm still not bitter about the cancelled Mac version of Tribes 2 & Half-Life, why do you ask?

Wasn't Sierra having money problems at the time? They had Blizzard, but their main games were not doing so hot if I recall right. Adventure genre had flatlined, Starsiege was awesome but not getting nearly the attention Mechwarrior was, Tribes was awesome but not getting the attention Quake was...
It's been a while, but I don't remember things being super rosy for Sierra at the time.
Which was surprisingly inneffective unless it was a 64 player map.
No. But nobody else is even trying (I guess Section 8: Prejudice and Firefall kind of count?) so really it's better that they try and probably fail as long as that means they have a tiny chance of success, because just imagine how amazing it would be to have another game that lives up to the legacy of Tribes.

Is it sacrilege to say I'd really like to see a grappling hook?
#ilikedtribesvengeance
Or not see due to it being obstructed by a Spinfusor the size of a small moon, as the case may be.
