Shazbot!!! I'm so excited that the TribesNext project has stepped up to fill in the gap that formed since Sierra dropped the Tribes 2 online multiplayer servers last November 1, 2008. On the site they boast:
  • Robust, fully integrated and automated account system. No need to wait or worry, you can create and log in to your account to play right away!
  • High-grade account security. Your account is protected by a 512-bit (or higher) encryption key generated on registration.
  • Authentication server down, but you've already created an account? No problem! Just log in and play.
  • No waiting for a human to create your account; no need to alt-tab to fully use the game; no need to worry about account theft.
  • No need for a CD-Key! The game is completely free to download and play, so go ahead!
It's a FREE, ONLINE, MULTIPLAYER game people! An FPS/TPS game complete with futurisitc weapons, vehicles, classes, large scale maps, flags, bases and jetpacks! ...with 64-on-64 epic battles! If you were too busy playing Counter-strike in the summer of 2001, you might have missed this awesome game. And now, here's your chance! Oh Sierra, I just hope you don't away our dreams! If you do, we'll be going after you with our spinfusors!
