Gliding - like tribes?
I miss that mechanic so much I'll try any game to get my kick
- keyle 5y agoShazbot!
- cevn 5y agoI am the greatest!
- thoughtpalette 5y agoMan I miss that game/community. edit: I was Vag/Dis, played PB Mod from 00-04' if anyone's still around. |!i!PbP|
- thegeekpirate 5y agoNo, that's skiing ;) https://tribes.fandom.com/wiki/Skiing https://tribes.fandom.com/wiki/Skiing
- dustymcp 5y agoBest fps
- rco8786 5y agoGuessing more like Breath of the Wild. Jump off something really tall and open something akin to a canopy that lets you fly unpowered over long distances.
- NikolaNovak 5y agoAhhhh... I enjoy that too but many places to get that particular kick :)
- kibwen 5y agoVeloren's is much more physics-based than BotW, you can tilt and steer the glider to control your flight. Here's a good video that also shows off the extreme elevation of the world's mountains: https://youtu.be/w-kYWjrU6IE https://youtu.be/w-kYWjrU6IE
- Ntrails 5y agoMy disappointment upon turning sound on and not hearing "Sail" was palpable! Looks cool, although very much like the Minecraft gliding from memory
- remram 5y agoThat looks fun! What happens afterwards? Do you have to spend many hours climbing back to the top of the mountain, or is there some sort of fast travel?
- kibwen 5y agoIt doesn't take too long to climb back up; unlike Minecraft, you can walk/run up one level of elevation so it's not like you have to hit the jump key a thousand times. No fast travel that I know of, but dying will reset you to the last campfire you touched, so you could use that in a pinch. Also the game is open source, you can compile it yourself and teleport anywhere with dev options, or add the ability to fast travel. :)
- opan 5y agoI would kill for a libre FPS-Z game.
- NikolaNovak 5y agoMidair tried it but I don't think it was libre
- superkuh 5y agoCorrect. They never even allowed private servers or mods. This is also what killed Tribes: Ascend. The modern microtransactions model has made games like Starsiege: Tribes impossible to make by profit seeking corps.
- ceroxylon 5y agoHave you tried Population One? It is surprisingly fun, the only downside is the hardware you need to play it comes from Zucky.
