In an unexpected announcement HiRez took to twitter to announce renewed support for Tribes Ascend. The next patch will add a new map and some other changes. They are looking to release it to their Public Test Server in about two weeks.

reading a bit further into their explanation one of the possible changes stands out to me, keep in mind it going to live Tribes Ascend depends on how well the community takes the change. I know t1/t2/tv players will likely be okay with this, but new players that started with Ascend may not be, and it totally depends on how well HiRez implements it.

One of the biggest changes we are contemplating and want to test on PTS is the consolidation to only 3 main classes -- Light, Medium and Heavy -- harkening back to Tribes 2. This may wind up being a bigger rathole than our small team can absorb -- but our early testing is promising, and we at least want to give you all the ability to test this on PTS and decide as a community whether its something you want us to keep in the game.

I'm skeptical, they know MIDAIR is coming... seems very coincidental!

That said; I'll give it a shot, but they better leave my infiltrator alone... it's perfect as it is!

All speculation but it sounds like the loadout system is going to be gutted and a t1/t2 loadout system put in place. So 3 armors light(2 weapon slots), medium(3 weapon slots), heavy(4 weapon slots). I hope this is true.
