The long awaited unnamed FPS now has one. Fallen Empire: Legions will be available exclusively on InstantAction.
Tim Aste, Project Director, sat down with IGN for an interview about the game. The interview posted yesterday gives some insight into what the game will be about and how it'll play.
"With Legions, we set out to create a fast and furious online shooter. Now imagine that same game, but with a big freaking rocket strapped to your back. Freedom of movement is an integral part of the game concept; we wanted players to feel unrestrained by the world. If a player can see a spot where they wanted to go, we want them to get there easily."
Head to www.instantaction.com to sign up for the beta and get a look at some of the screenshots for the game.

We'll be letting people in very soon who have already registered. So if you haven't done so yet, and want in that's the road to take.

May the gods allow me entrance to the mighty beta !
And also, don't you have a forum of some sort where you amuse some fans with monthly updates ? ^^

sweeeeeeeeet! this had better top T:V lol... not that that's hard or anything... High expectations here from a T2 player...
Posted by: Redvan | January 18, 2008 at 03:44 PM
you guys going to be showing this off at GDC this year?
Posted by: Got Haggis? | January 18, 2008 at 04:38 PM
Been waiting a long time for a real successor to Tribes 1 and 2. Hopefully this well end up being as complete as Shifter or Renegades servers in T1.
Posted by: JizzyMcButter | January 18, 2008 at 05:30 PM
Well, I never pld tribes 1, I started on t2, but going back for a few games of tribes 1 made me realize how annoyed some t1 players must have been with base, I enjoyed base but classic,cluster are far more enjoyable.
I snapped my T:V disc and almost blinded myself in the process, I cannot believe this will be anything like T:V, lets just hope I am correct in my assumptions..
WOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Posted by: Dev | January 18, 2008 at 07:25 PM
soooo looking forward to this, the world is desperate for a decent fps in the mould of tribes

WHOAA :D:D
Posted by: Soker | January 19, 2008 at 07:51 AM
I have been forced to play horrible MMO's and subpar FPS's in the void left in the wake of Tribes. This game cannot come too soon...
Posted by: Silk | January 19, 2008 at 01:26 PM
shazbot, great news. i expect to be in the beta!
Posted by: zzebulonn | January 19, 2008 at 01:28 PM

Posted by: So0ker | January 20, 2008 at 04:13 AM
A successor to Tribes 2... mod communities, unite! Let's make this community even bigger and better than the original Tribes and Tribes 2!
Posted by: TitanClash | January 20, 2008 at 10:12 PM
I wonder if I can get the Black Widows to rise again and play :)
It's been so long I've gotten gray hairs.
Posted by: Koed | January 22, 2008 at 03:33 AM
I really hope i get into this beta! i loved t1 and t2 and have beta tested so many bad games since then so i gave up for a while untill i heard about this. i cant wait!
Posted by: Devin | January 22, 2008 at 03:43 PM
i remember people in my clan taking mice apart just to get a nice scrolling visual shot of slapdash - tang- your a star. :PPPPPPP. i played too much. just ask shazbot. :DD
Posted by: quartz | January 22, 2008 at 04:53 PM
Tribes 2 didn't lure me away from Tribes 1. I modded 1 for so long...
It finally took PLANETSIDE to get me away from Tribes.
But, this may take me from PlanetSide. Where is Clan )]-[(olocaust?
Posted by: WarCan | January 22, 2008 at 09:55 PM
Looks like Tribes is coming back to life. About time, and as ben said, I hope it is modable. I eagerly await this one.
Posted by: RcRon7 | January 23, 2008 at 02:25 AM
Ill have to see it to believe it. Was so let down with T:V. I realize this ISNT tribes, so I have a little better outlook. T2 still cant be surpassed.
Posted by: brownpaperbag | January 23, 2008 at 03:57 PM
Hmm above post didnt show. Well, i hope this can bring back the meaning of community and a decent game. I was really let down with T:V. I know this ISN'T, but they do have something to prove =)
Posted by: brownpaperbag | January 23, 2008 at 03:59 PM
how do we play those games???
Posted by: Brooklyn | January 24, 2008 at 07:00 PM
You'll be able to play the games once we start letting people in to the private beta, which is soon. We'll let you know via email when you've been let in.
Posted by: James | January 25, 2008 at 11:44 AM
As a huge fan of Tribes 1 (personally, I really disliked Tribes 2), I'm really looking forward to this game, and I hope it's simple enough to just be an awesome free movement combat game, not a turret farm like Renegades. Please get that beta started soon. :)
Posted by: Gibb Boy | January 25, 2008 at 04:04 PM
This is torture, everytime someone say "soon, soon" and nothing comes out :(. Don't play with us like that !
Posted by: Koala | January 28, 2008 at 06:46 AM
I alpha/beta tested Tribes/Tribes2 and was not impressed with anything after. All I have to say is Oops!.
Hopefully this will bring back the wonderful frantic skiing and fighting in my life!
Long Live the SofaKings!

Hi to everybody I know
Posted by: Blaspheme | February 04, 2008 at 12:41 PM
Oh boy. Here we go again.
Posted by: DavidAdas | February 05, 2008 at 08:38 AM
I played Tribes 2 for like 5 years!! I loved every minute of it! I was really depressed when T:V came out. If this is anything like T2 and nothing like T:V. I think it will be a good game :). PLS dont make it like T:V!!
Posted by: Entity | February 05, 2008 at 02:29 PM
I love T1 and I'm looking forward to playing this game, I signed up some time ago but still no invitation to anything. Hope this game can be modded.
Posted by: MrR | February 06, 2008 at 05:05 PM
If this turns out to be a good sequel to the Tribes series, I will be spending many nights again getting drunk and shooting Lexor out of the air.
:)
Posted by: Razors Edge | February 06, 2008 at 06:55 PM
I can't Wait for this game!! Thank the Gods some people still Remember how Great! Tribes 2 is, and was. P.S. Please... make the game so you can customize your Character suit/armor; chest, legs,arms,helmet,boots. To give a feel that your character is unique from the rest of the people in the game. Thanks
Posted by: Dead-Bolt | February 06, 2008 at 11:02 PM
anybody have a guess for how long till i get a Private Beta Invite? not really digging the whole "hand over your information and u might get to join... someday" thing.
Posted by: suspiciousYetHopeful | February 09, 2008 at 06:07 PM
wow, ive never platyed t1 or t2 before, but this game seems great so far just from watching the beta vids
Posted by: BULLETS | February 12, 2008 at 07:47 AM
this game looks so good, i cant wait for the beta.....Maniac Killaz will be the first FE:L clan!!!! and i hope with this push up ppl will go back to his old good T1 now that its free :)
Cuz we had a hard time making T1 survive so long
Posted by: -JD- | February 26, 2008 at 07:07 AM
When will this be out?
Posted by: Reyzer | April 02, 2008 at 07:51 PM
want to play but computer wont let me
Posted by: chase | May 13, 2008 at 02:02 PM
Please make it mod friendly so that I'll easily be able to convert it to the game that everyone wants: Starsiege: Tribes remake. :)
What I didn't like about Tribes 2 and Vengeance is that there was too much energy in the jetpack. Half the fun with combat in Tribes 1 was that you had to be really skilled to jump to a point with your limited jetpack energy. Hopefully this game won't be the opposite where you're have so much energy, you can get to any point easily and hover in mid air. That will take away a huge percentage the the required skill.
