Open beta, yo.
What the hell is a Tribes?
Tribes is an FPS franchise focused on massive maps, non-hitscan (instant projectile) weapons, and teamwork-heavy capture the flag.
Tribes Ascend is the newest, free-to-play addition to the series, and it has just gone in to open beta. New players will have three of nine classes and a basic set of weapons and perks unlocked, with upgrades, perks, and new classes being fairly easy to unlock ith EXP, and new weapons being very expensive. Players can pay money to get "gold", which can either be used to buy perks/weapons/classes directly or spent on "boost time" to increase EXP gains.
