Don't hurt me again, after Tribes Ascend and HiRez studios shitting all over that franchise, I don't know if I could handle another mishandling of one of my favorite games of all time.
FYI
Prophecy Games Inc is a Hirez subsidiary.
Expect all the same shenanigans and monetization hell that comes with that. I'll be pleasantly surprised if it's not.
I read that Prophecy spun off as an independent studio. Their write-up about Tribes 3 says you won't have to unlock any weapons, only cost is 19.89 for the base game with more expensive premium editions and micro transaction cosmetics.
At least we won't be grinding for weapon unlocks, or being pressured into buying new weapons for cash.
That would be a welcome surprise.
I only did a quick Google, so fair enough.
