I didn’t see a single hitscan weapon in the entire trailer. Even the sniper was leading shots. Chaingun seems to be back for all weight classes instead of a dozen different ‘assault rifle’ weapons with short mags. Maybe they actually learned their lesson on how to make a tribes game this time.
Still wish they wouldn’t do the sniper rifle at all, snipers are impossible to balance and destructive to gameplay in nearly every game that has them. The whole reason the laser rifle wasn’t a balance mess in Tribes 1 was because it used up all your energy when you fired. Mobility is life and giving it up for 1 shot is dangerous in the extreme.
