H-R won't get any more money out of me until they fix various issues already listed and posted in several super large threads: physics, silly jetpack behaviour, the lack of depth and solo/lone wolf encouraging aspects, mortar range etc. Oh well, losing interest in it more as time goes by anyway. Just to quantify that: I feel I got my money's worth already and supported Tribes continuing but as it's going right now it doesn't seem to be worth spending more on. The teamplay is generally lacking and the depth of tactics is too.

Tribes needs more true micro-transactions. Fact is, most weapons are like, a $10 purchase for me, and it's just not worth it. If weapons were more like, $5 or less, I'd be more inclined to spend more gold. I mostly buy the cheapest pack of gold (because that's all I can really afford to spare on a weekly basis-- I don't save my disposable income, I enjoy it instead), and that will only get me one decent gun. That doesn't feel like I'm getting my money's worth, and I'd really rather go get a nice meal and enjoy that. But if I could get two decent guns for $10, then I'm more likely to consider it. And as a woman, I'd rather not see an alternate gender option specifically as an unlock. I'd rather not have them at all. The game doesn't feel like it's lacking in any way by having player characters exclusively male. If you're going to sell female costumes, then at least give us the option to change our voices on the standard armour sets. It is a good way to monetize costumes, but you shouldn't monetize opposite gender exclusively. (Just please, don't make the female voices extremely girly. We're soldiers, not super-models!) _________________ Te audire no possum. Musa sapientum fixa est in aure.
