Tribes Successor In Development?
by Maarten Goldstein, Feb 17, 2006 7:36am PSTTribalWar.com is reporting that Garage Games might just be working on a spiritual successor to the Tribes games. They based this on an image from a blog from one of the guys at Garage Games (which employs several ex-Dynamix folks), and a 21 second tech video which looks a lot like Tribes. The TribalWar community was also told to "keep your eyes open around the GarageGames booth at GDC 2006. Never know what kinda things might be shown off".
why else would there be a video floating around with the following - jetpacks, skiing, a vertical disc launcher, but a disc launcher all the same... rolling hills, GIGANTIC structures fading off into the distance. The video is a triber's dream come true. The video IS tribes. But what does it represent? A new edition, or a tech demo with excessive fan service? We should find out at GDC.Update: according to GameCloud, the media is from tech demos and no full blown Tribes-like game is in the works at Garage Games.

That video looked seriously awesome. Why did they even release it and torture us like that, just to say, "Oh sorry, we're not really making a Tribes game, even though we completely nailed the technology necessary for it. Haha, joke is on you!"

My suggestion to them is if they're going to make a game, dont even whisper the name Tribes except to denounce that your project has nothing to do with it, otherwise you automatically exclude the Tribes "fanbase."

but actually i cant understand another try to make another tribes, or tribes like title, each part of tribes were more or less a flop. unfortunately i must say.
i like the game but the online community were too small to survive.
well lets hope for better times for this title

I think it's pretty safe to say that they are indeed working on a Tribes style game, and not just a tech demo. Read this Shack post from the Producer and Lead Artist for Garage Games. Particularly, his obvious hinting at this being a full game:

Funny thing is, based on what I saw in the beta, I think it was better than both. *shrug*
