What would high hills do other than ruin skiing? There is a large amount of jetting already in game, mostly for dropping onto those small hills for speed. Use your creativity.
well he's got a point - ascend has almost no real "mountains" or large hills like tribes 2 had. they were great for building up enormous amounts of speed, or ramping up high into the air. most of the levels are really flat with small hills.
it makes the game not based on skill, and instead based on numbers. if you want a number based game play an mmo. when i fire up a game with tribes in the name, i expect to find a game based only on skill and not how much you've poopsocked
it's painfully obvious that you've never played the game, because the stat bonuses are tiny and the game is still 90% skill 10% pure luck, like it was in tribes 2.
hnngh look at all those stat bonuses and random dice rolls, this game is ruined FOREVER.
graphics style reminds me of UT3, and blood eagles kick ass btw
it runs on the same engine as ut3.
