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.

I just assume all these "revival" projects will be as abject shit as Duke Nukem Forever. That way I'll be pleasantly surprised if they're actually decent.
I paid $30 for early access to Tribes Ascend and then like 2 weeks later they were like "actually it's going to be F2P lol!"
