Ok i 'got' tribes2 for only reason to check out the ENGIN since our game will use the same as theirs, only updated (called V12).

I thought it was a pretty lame game AND engin hehe, but one thing i wanted to check out was vehicles.. I found some small hoverbike and aircraft but hovering things suck.

Can somebody tell me in which game type and map i can find normal wheeled vehicles? I really wanna try driving some.

But since you're wondering about the engin[e]s,

you're right. Hovering things suck. The engines are weak, like Ukrainian tank running on vodka! WEAK! *pounds fist*

You need to find some vehicles, with wheels, my good Sovietski. They have good engines! They run like Russian tank, full of anti-capitalism bullets! The engines are FULL of POWER to CRUSH the WEAK! Like the HOVERCRAFT! SMASH! *pounds fist*

You should use the WHEELED VEHICLE ENGINES in your game, since they are obviously STRONG, like THE MOTHER SOVIET! Your game will crush the WEAK! CRUSH and DESTROY, like RUSSIA roll over CZECHOSLOVAKIA! I highly suggest you use those ENGINES if your game will to be FUN, like HALO! In HALO you drive around in STRONG JEEPS and shoot WEAK ALIENS! It has very STRONG ENGINES in that game. I think you should use HALO'S ENGINES INSTEAD! *pounds fist*

Chris: ye garagegames. We think something like fps/rts combined where there are two sides battling eachother on a huge planet. We'll have things like fuel system for vehicles, different structures, vehicles and classes. You play as one of the soldiers, it'll have both SP and MP. Of course im not telling the whole concept here, but we might change it along the way anyways :)

Well do you have tribes2? Cause i wanna see how our vehicls would feel like since they peobably have the same car physics in V12.

Shizo: If you have decent programmers, it shouldn't be too hard to incorporate ANYTHING you need into this engine, be it physics, AI, etc. If they have it and it sucks or if they don't have it, just (re)do it yourself. Just the fact that you have a very decent rendering engine (for a laughable price compared to UT, Q3, or Lithtech) and all that set up for you saves a great deal of resources and money for your project -- it doesn't mean it can do everything from Pac-Man to Quake 49 : Steed's Harem.

HEheh ye Frost ya dirty ol' bum, you almost right except that im not even sure WHAT our programmer can do :)

COMMON PEOPLES! SOMEBODY HAS TO HAVE TRIBES2

[[Shizo]]

Nevermind, damn bastards cut them out of the game :p
And screenshots looked so good with those vehcles..

That's why you use HALO'S ENGINES! They are STRONG! Not like Tribes 2! They only have WEAK hover ENGINES! Or you use ENGINES from GOLDENEYE 007!! It has TANK in that GAME! Very STRONG! It's even RUSSIAN! You run over MANY bad guys with it! It's got STRONGEST ENGINE i've ever seen. It's STRONG, like LENIN!

I just bought Tribes 2 today... played a bit at my friend's place... I do recall seeing a transport vehicle on wheels... more on that later.
