Oh dear.

Thing is, if it is a simultaneous konsole release, then maybe this kind of
gameplay will go down better than "traditional" Tribes.

TBF, I couldn't imagine T1, or even T2, taking off (no pun intended, but I'm
leaving it there anyway) on consoles because they take *ages* to master.

It must have taken me a good 3 months of regular play to even become
"un-n00b" at T1. T2 a little shorter, but that was with years on T1.

The console market will simply not tolerate this investment of time to get
to an acceptable level - hence the seeming loss of nuances of physics etc.

Here's hoping, but a series that went downhill after the first game isn't
one to pin many hopes on!

So, you're saying this kind of game play is more suited for consoles?

I don't agree.

You gotta move a lot.

how is this a problem? if anything shooting accurately in console fps is
the problem.

Anyone who puts any stock in a review of a pre-alpha product is an idiot.
