    This is a pretty bad take and I feel like you must have not really played tribes very much. Comparing tribes to CS? Really? You think the popularity is because of the team sizes?

    The fact that they are only implementing 16v16 seems like a warning flag to me. I wouldn’t be surprised if this ends up as a mediocre experience with a few tribes mechanics just largely trying to cash in on name recognition.

      I wasn’t comparing Tribes to CS. I was saying different sized teams have different reasons for existing. The larger the team the smaller a single person’s contributions are.

      They are only implementing 16v16 right now. The CEO of the company I think does care about the game. There’s a reason they split from HiRez and he’s spent a good amount of his fortune keeping things running. I do agree it’s missing things, and they’re still trying to figure out how to make Tribes again. I have some faith they’ll eventually get there. The game feels good, even if it isn’t what I want it to be right now.
