 How to revive Tribes and gain massive players!
I've played tribes since the very first and became hooked since vengeance. When Halo came out I was pissed for the rave because it was a dull down and slow version of tribes and it took up to reach for them to even add jet packs.

Any way with Tribes ascend I love the gameplay but it feels like its not a full game. There is NO STORY MODE!

A very great way to gain new players and bring back old ones would be to make a co-op campaign mode. Make new co-op campaign only weapons. Best part is you wouldnt have to go through hell to do so. You all ready have all the coding. Just make new campaign maps and missions and sub plots and deep story.

Way to keep players drawn would be instead of releasing a full campaign and calling it quits release about 4 hours of gameplay of campaign on a by monthly basis. So every other month you have time to write and code and do voicing for another part of the story and make the campaign mode a series.

Im sure many other die hard tribes fan agree that this would be a wonderful idea! And im sure if this is advertise to the public right then many new players would jump on because its like a brand new game!!!

Thank you for reading Staff and Community.
From truly yours Bearsss

Asking for PVE content is not usually well received here.

You don't seem to realize how much work goes into a single player campaign. It would take months to finish anything worth playing, but at the same time, it probably wouldn't bring in enough money to offset development and upkeep costs. The only way we'll see single player content for Tribes is if HiRez makes a new game with that in mind. That way they can build the mechanics and pricing model around the game mode, rather than shoehorn the game mode into a F2P model.

Oh, the irony.

The actual coding that is in tribes is the easy part. AI, needed for enemies etc... And the art is what consumes most of the time now days. So maps and AI would be a huge investment not a small one.

Do the coding the easy way and you end up with boring shooting gallery missions where nothing happens at all and all enemies are just "hold lmb to fire" kind of deal.

Great for tribes game: stay in one place and shoot.

Make a new game building on the legacy of the series, forgetting this one ever existed.
