a question for my uk frineds

[old.tribes_amy]

Hello all. Im in America and we dont haev the game yet =(((( But anyway I was just woundering how Codemasters and BIS pulled off the multiplayer. Can each player adjust thier game speed? (like the + and - keys.. goes from 1.000 to 2.000 to 4.000) Do servers set the speed? Also, when you die do you repsawn? Do vechiles repsawn? And my last question is one aout M2 MGs i think they are called.. the stationary machinegun you get in.. It was in the demo mission when your leader meets with Bravo Squad. My question about them is, do they die easy? Cuase in the demo you had to be realllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllly close to kill it with gun fire or a LAW/RPG. Can you guys help me out? Thanks.

You can't change the speed as far as I know. The missions are small ish anyway so you should not need to speed up the game.

Also, when you die do you repsawn?

If you are leading a squad and you die you respawn as one of your men. This continues until the squad is wiped out. When you do die you can sometimes fly around as a seagull .

Vehicles don't respawn (as far as I can tell). There is a m2 mounted on a jeep which seems quite good.

Via the mission editor you can set it so people respawn 'gauntlet style' i.e. you can keep dying and respawning, like any other DM game, as long as someone human is left alive on your team. Not sure about vehicles but given the way the unit controls work it might be possible.

THX!!!

thx for all your help guys! but in Multiplayer, if you die.. what happens?

if you don't respawn you sometimes turn into a seagul and can fly around or have to wait until your teammates finish and the server guy (or girl) resets the game.
