Some updates from the blog:
Quote: | I've got some information straight from the lead on the project:
- GarageGames purchased the ownership of the Tribes IP (all Tribes games) from Activision/Vivendi late last year.
- We do have the source code to the game, and the build has been updated with bug fixes
- The build will be distributed through the website, but still playable as a standalone game.
- The game will use the existing Master Server system that the original game used. We will provide a new master server address with the release.
- The game is not compatible with version 1.11 but you should be able to play the same demos as recorded on previous versions
- Mods and configs used in 1.11 will not be directly compatible, without at least minor changes, as the base game scripts have been cleaned up considerably by Andrew
- The game does NOT have updated graphics, this was a PR misunderstanding. The game does support modern file formats (PNG textures, Zip files)
