As a completely free downloadable title, Tribes: Ascend is really good looking. Character models are detailed, making it easy to distinct a light armor class to a heavier one. Even better are the different maps. There isn't a whole lot of variety, as the environments consist of grassy hills, a desert, and a red-hot lava area. The draw distance, however, is impressive. Enemies are always visible no matter how far away they are, and maps are much larger than any other shooter out there.
Online games have become the pastime of choice for everyone, no matter their age. And here's a list of the best free online games for 2017.
Back in March of 2013, Hi-Rez broke the news to its Tribes: Ascend fans that they would need to take several months away from the game in order to focus all its efforts on SMITE. Several months became more than two years, and fans were beginning to believe that Hi-Rez would simply never return to Tribes.
But the recent 1.1 update -- a.k.a. the Out of the Blue Update -- has proven those naysayers wrong.
If you thought Hi-Rez Studios were done with Tribes Ascend, think again. Today they are launching a major update to the free to play shooter that fans of the original games might just approve of.
This looks very similar to Halo, especially that gun in the article picture, and of course the colorful look of the game. (That's not a bad thing though)
