Tribes: Ascend 101



How to start playing 7v7 CTF PUGS (Pick-up Games)
So, you played the game for a while and felt a hunger. You searched for others with interest in the game and found r/tribes, you read up on the game and learned, and the hunger was abated. Time has gone on, and the hunger has returned. The public matches are getting stale, your opponents are usually far beneath your skill, so much so that they make it hard to play a good match. The randomness is getting to you, and you want more. This is natural, it is showing you that it is time for you to move on. To face others with a similar, goal-orientated mind set. It is time to PuG.
In light of the recent posts consisting of some variant on "Looking to pug with you guys!" and the spinfusor.org article on casual/competitive scenes, I have decided to try and make a one-stop-shop for the pug information.
PuGs should not be a scary thing, they are just a way to play the game against others that actually want to play the objectives. They are the next logical step to increase your skill at the game.
Joining a pug is simple, and I'm going to try and make it as streamlined as possible.
Join the mumble below. Label it whatever you want, your username should be your tribes name. (Don't have mumble? You should.)
Make sure you have push-to-talk enabled1, or your speach recognition well configured. The random breathing/noises will annoy many people.

New Guide to getting into pugs here!

Old but useful video.


  • Right click->self->change comment. Put in order your main roles (capper, chaser, offense, defense, HoF). Not really needed, but is useful if there are 20 cappers and no defense to see what else people play.
  • Search through the channels for TA:Mixed Sign up Via Mumble and enter into the role section you want to play.
  • Wait for some games to start and have some fun.
  • If they are already in game, just hang out. After two games, they will come back to the roles and repick.

Something wrong with the other thread? Either way i'll add my name if a i play it a bit more XD only every few days / weekly.
 
I have spoke to webbo about this already. The original poster was perma banned and we all want to add useful info to the OP for new players. Webbo will be closing the old thread and setting up redirect around 8pm.
 
GG tonight guys. Really seemed a pretty easy win from my perspective. Kiwi how think you got on with O?

BTW .idk won the ESL $2000 prize beating heartbreakers 2-1.

Really focused on my timing for those games. Think I will start focusing on playing O with Jim on pubs from now on as my duelling skills need some work.
