What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Our goal for early access is to fine-tune the overall TRIBES 3 experience through player feedback. Changes to the game may include general improvements, additional content, graphical updates and performance upgrades. Our time in early access will be used to create the best possible TRIBES successor.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect Early Access to last at least six to twelve months to address any bugs, balance changes, new content, and other improvements for players. Depending on development progress and community feedback, we may consider extending the Early Access period, or releasing the game at an earlier date instead.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We’ll regularly collect feedback from the TRIBES community through our Discord and surveys, to create the best experience for both veterans and players new to the series. For example, along the way to creating a full version of the game, we may add new maps, weapons, or make adjustments to already existing game elements.

All are welcome to join our community and Discord, to create the best game possible together.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Players can ski, jetpack, battle, and race to capture the enemy team’s flag, all while ferociously defending their own!

Players can choose from light, medium, and heavy classes, select from six unique perks (such as “Doombringer”, “Sentinel”, etc), and play with a variety of weapons such as spinfusors, launchers, grenades, packs, shields, sniper rifles, pistols, shotguns, and the classic shocklance.

There are also seven unique maps to play such as Katabatic, Wavemist, DryDock, Dangerous Crossing, Torment, Hollow, and RainDance.

Match formats include 16v16 Capture the Flag (“CTF”), ranked 7v7 CTF, time trials, the shooting range and even custom matches where game match sizes, physics, and settings can be adjusted. Team Death Match (TDM) is also available in custom lobbies on smaller maps such as Honor Dome, Ice Dome, and Magma Dome.

In addition to purchasing TRIBES 3, players can also purchase any of the DLC packages through Steam for bonus cosmetic content.

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We expect the base price of the TRIBES 3 game to remain around the same during early access, but may offer periodic discounts, sales, and special events of the game for players. We also expect the base prices for any DLC or bundles to remain similar to the prices offered during our early access launch, but may periodically discount or raise those prices during sales or special events.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We already have a strong TRIBES community in our Discord and on Reddit! The best way to communicate with us is through Discord, as we check each channel regularly. We primarily use Discord, Steam, and Twitter to update players with patch notes, server times, and any other events.

Once we launch into Early Access, we’ll also have a blog on our website with more updates for players. We’d love to hear your feedback on TRIBES.

Reviews

“There’s something about over-the-top, old-school shooters that you just won’t find in AAA FPSs today, and that’s perhaps best exemplified by the likes of the Tribes series...there’s a whole lot to like about its unique, refreshingly over-the-top action”
IGN

“From what I played, Tribes 3 can definitely bring back happy memories of zipping around, nicking flags and copping Spinfuser blasts, and the finished article may well have the chops to create some new ones”
Rock Paper Shotgun

“All the best, most basic zones of your mammalian brain will light up like starshine”
