Tribes 2 - Gentoo Clan

J.M.I.T. · Posted: Mon Aug 04, 2003 11:52 pm Post subject: Tribes 2 - Gentoo Clan

Hi there!

One question... Are there any active Tribes 2 players that would like to join a Gentoo clan?
Intention of this clan is not to be a competitive clan, but just to play with a gentoo tag...
I know that this will raise some more or less irrational emotions on some public servers, but
anyway it would be nice to play with a linux-related tag...

i think loki released it a couple years ago. i'm tempted to snatch up a copy before the suppliers run out.

I say if we have a gentoo clan for any game it should be enemy territory

ok... those replies seem to be a little bit off topic :wink:

anyway there's a native linux port of tribes 2 since end of 2001... so there really should be some players around here... i guess

so no tribes peeps out there???

I can barely play t2 anymore, the game always was flakey, but under a 2.6 kernel, half the time I connect to a server it will crash. Then if I make it in it will always lock at the next map load. sad.

I own T2 for Linux but I never figured out how to play it correctly

I have T2 for linux, and I play it all the time. More than any other game. Well, until icculus releases his Medal of Honor port anyway :-)

You can't just download an installer. You have to buy the linux version (meaning you can't install the client from the windows cd).

Ya, that's the only problems I've really had with the game in linux. Most (or all... ) sounds don't fade. I haven't found a fixed for it as of yet.
