I just don't get T:V. I suck. I can't score more than 15 pts. in a game.

I hate the fact that the arrows above peoples heads aren't always red. I still shoot my own teammates.

I can't stand the fact that it takes 3 hits with a disc to shoot down a vehicle.

I can't tell from what direction I am being hit half of the time.

Bleh! I just suck at T:V. Not liking it.

I have trouble at determining who I should be shooting at times too, so you're not alone there.

As far as the rest... I'm not sure what you could be doing wrong, if you are...

I don't really worry much about my score, I just do my best to have fun and enjoy it. If something or someone is making it unenjoyable, then I leave. Another part of it may be that I really only consider myself a mediocre player in T2, so I don't expect much in T:V.

The thing I AM liking is the influx of noobs that don't know enough to not stand still, so I can actually use the sniper rifle with decent accuracy.

there is an option to change it back to the old red/green IFF's ....
go to options/controls and uncheck "team colored radar ID"

really? that's amazing... of all the people I thought would enjoy aspects of T:V it was you...

But anyway, I've been using the "old" IFF system since I got the beta... I had no idea that the default was anything else...

I think 3 discs is better than the 4 or 5 for a shrike...

If you're on Isle there is no excuse for not being the pt leader for your team... let me know when you play, we'll meet up... I showed a couple of my clanmates how to help me and they all seem to enjoy emulating what I do on most maps...

With those speeds, I'd think capping was pretty easy... when you grab the flag ;p

I just need to play it more. I have gotten very little playtime in thus far.

Kraska! Huge thanks on the option to change the radar/arrow colors.

I'll give that a shot and see how it does.

Not the capping part of the game that I am having problems with - it is the scrimmage part. I am getting knocked around and killed all over and do little to effect in return.

I am so used to the dynamics of T2 I think it will just take more playtime to get used to the new dynamics of TV.

Light Offense doesn't get many points unless they are capping. Heavy Offense is best effective indoors. If you want alot of points LD I get at least 30 points on every map, and anywhere from 40 to 50 on isle. Eaz I showed you those HO routes!!!

anyone notice the fighter pod now has a booster? use your ski button, and hauls butt ... except it goes down, so you kinda have to adjust...

There were no changes to the fighter per Irrational. Is tournament mode working? They did add an option for cap limits, but it's in the .ini file I think.

I haven't had this experience, and I haven't had many problems as light O or D... I usually play the ENTIRE field though, and am getting pretty efficient at taking down heavies and mediums. Need more practice with the grapple though, I'm still slamming myself into walls :p
