GameSpy have thrown up their preview of Tribes: Vengeance! Here's a snip.
Those familiar with the first two games will feel almost immediately at home in Tribes: Vengeance, even though it's now using a heavily modified version of the Unreal engine. In fact, the Karma physics engine has been completely ripped out and the Havok 2 engine is in its place. Despite these changes, the game feels very familiar.
The team has the feel of the jetpacks down quite well, and it's difficult to tell the difference between these and previous versions. Skiing also works exactly as expected, although we did manage to hit a few invisible walls at about 90mph. (Keep in mind everything we played was in an alpha state.)
