Vehicles?

[isuck]

i've been playing t2 on and off for some time, but i cant fly vehicles for shit, every time i get near one i end up plummeting into the earth at a few hundred km/h.

is it possible to adjust the sensitivity when in vehicles? or do i just have to suck forever?

theres loads a stuff out there if ya bother to look
heres a good place to look(scripts and stuff)

the ladder forum thingy

Id like to help more but im a n0ob as well
but shouldnt the path to cfg type stuff be in the
C:\Dynamix\Tribes2\GameData\base\prefs\clientprefs dir?
u could prolly change the sensitivity there (i could b very very wrong here)
im not really a vehicle user meself
and if i do i stick to base defence with the shriek
but that forums ok for a few tips as this place is fucking dead

I use crunchys Pilot Mode v2.0 script

get it from

http://www.planettribes.com/depot/

It lets you adjust the sensitivity for each vehicle

Just a thought - I've never had any problems as a capper with shrikes defending the flag/base.

I DO have problems with elfers and light discers but not vehicles as defence.

Anyone feel the same?

Nah you just haven't encountered a decent shrike d. A decent shriker can cut a capper down in seconds, or run em over

 

[theriven]

normally i stick at base in light elf and let the turrets/others take em out
not such a big score but i like to think im doing me bit

N00b - yeah, now and again they surprise me - but I think there are much more effective ways to put the vehicles to use, and much more effective ways to stop cappers.....

Yeah saying that you sorta prove my point m8, seriously, a sd can be deadly.

 

[Scouse]

Dunno how I prove your point - I qualify it with "now and again" - but it's VERY few and far between - and even then they normally miss/make me laugh because I think there's easier ways to stop me

 

[-Ultimate]

You prove my point that you haven't encountered any decent sd.

Have a look out for:

Staberinde
homi
Samuel
Zerl
quakenul
Arienal
The Night killer
ALK

From the top of my head, although the majority of them don't play on pubs much.

 

[Scouse]

You miss my point.

I've encountered decent shrike defence. Even v.good.

But I still reckon that there's better ways to defend than in a vehicle......

Your gonna find flag defended by SD only and nothing else on pubbies only though, when everyone else is off deathmatching in the middle. Sure you could say elfers etc will own the cappers more easily but i still insist a good shriker can own a capper easily on there own. I do admit SD is meant to be combined with LD though.

Murry fluff

One of my greatest satisfactions is chain guning down a shriek and the discin the dumb fly boy ...
and the lamest play has to be crashing shrieks into lonly snipers ..

not cost efective lol

 

[theriven]

TBH offensive snipping is more annoying than usefull.
The person who gets sniped will only respawn(what 30 meters away?)and either ignore him, as he is realy wasting the other teams players, or hunt him down and disc him.
As for crashing shrikes into the snipers...
Well its one way i suppose, and as i said you will only respawn a few foot away. So again i suppose it makes little difference,unless the sniper truly is an annoying twat.
