Another thing why do people in pub matches always focus on genny instead of flag, the amount of times ive had my team just attacking and defending genny while the other team just rapes is 5-0 is beyond a joke

Cus there nubs.

Need more Boost.

.:SAmSuNG:. · 1 May 2012 at 07:56

What's going on there?

Guys, if you unlock a perk is it only for that specific class or can all classes use it?

Had a great game last night as juggernaught. Went after about 4 flag cappers who were miles away and yet mortar shells managed to drop on their head, then had a blast in the tank, stopping cappers. Then to finish off noticed our flag was in its post so wondered where theres was and it was two steps to the side of ours, so a quick lama grab and walked it home and it was game over. Managed 10k xp which was a first.

Jock · 1 May 2012 at 09:49

HiRez calculate time left on boost in a very very silly way, it's been mentioned multiple times in both IRC and forums.. they still haven't fixed it.

All you have to do is travel back in time, simples.

Are you trying to say that if you change your system time, you gain more Boost? If so I am going straight to the Store...

Jim please confirm this.

It is indeed true, people have reported this to HiRez and it's still exploitable.

Try it yourself, the only requirement is that you need boost for it to work, people have purchased 1 day and used this to get permanent boost.

Incredible! Shame I don't really know if I can even be bothered to purchase one day now that I know it is so easy

I would love to, but can't.

On other fronts, a fix has been found for the in-game mouse input filtering.

Reddit post: http://www.reddit.com/r/Tribes/comments/t1t7a/extremely_important_ini_tweak_that_drastically/

HiRez forum post: http://forum.hirezstudios.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=313&t=70201

TLDR:

Go to:
C:\Users*YOUR PC NAME*\Documents\My Games\Tribes Ascend\TribesGame\Config
Open:
Tribes.ini
Insert under DirectionalLightMaps=True the following:
"OneFrameThreadLag=False" (without " marks)
Save the ini.
Enjoy drastically increased mouse responsiveness.

It comes at a slight FPS drop for some, but it drastically improves mouse movement.
