I'll have to chime in with Gambino and Gryph on this. I got into Tribes because it was sold as a storied combat-sim, not an action game. I played it (and continue to play it) solely because even after four years, I still have to stretch my brain to come up with attack and defense plans, or to figure out how to sneak through a heavy sensor net unseen, or what exactly to take with me relative to the current battlefield simulation. And then there's the times where I have long-time parters fighting at my side--that's a whole new ball game, adjusting tactics to take advantage of my teammate's skills.
In short, I play because it stimulates my brain more than it does my reflexes. That, and then there's the backstory.
Mind you, I'll be happy to duel ya, Spec, but don't expect to see me on such servers all the time. I have tanks to drive and bombers to fly, you know.
