As work on Tribes: Vengeance progresses, we kick off an exclusive three-part series with a first-look at the single-player experience.
"While there's no denying the incredible multiplayer gameplay of the first two Tribes games, there's also no question that they were woefully lacking in the single-player department. While the Tribes games were clearly meant for online play, a decent solo experience would've really enhanced the Tribes experience. The first game's laughable "fly to the top of this thing and now you're ready!" tutorial was useless, and the second game's "campaign" was little more than a poorly scripted tack-on thrown in at the end of an extra long development cycle. With a game as complex and dynamic as Tribes, new players either suffered online for a week or two while learning, or discarded the game in general, leaving behind one of the best multiplayer experiences ever created."
