Tribes 2 - Online Options

To access "Online" insert the CD and on the menu select "Online", or click on the shortcut on your desktop (It can be located on your START menu).

Announcement & Patch Checking: Once you enter "Tribes 2 Online" the game will first check for announcements, and then patches. If there are any new patches the game will prompt you to download them, or if there are none you'll be taken to the login screen...

Note: All changes from each patch to the next can always be found in the "UpdatePatch.txt" file located in your Tribes2\GameData\ folder.

Login Screen

Here is where you login. Every player has a free account. It's used to help you keep details about yourself in the game (more on this later), and to take part in the online community.

If your new you'll have to select Create New Account.

Some notes on creating a new account:

  • Your account name is never seen. This is only displayed to you when you login.
  • Your "warrior name" is the name "other players" will see. When you play the game or post on the forums / join chat your warrior name will be shown. "There can be only one !" as the highlander would say and this is the same for Tribes 2. If your favourite name is taken fear not for you can create an "alias". Click here for more info.
  • A password will need to be entered twice. I'd suggest added a few numbers to your password to make it a bit more secure.
  • CD KEY. This is to confirm you own the game! Enter this in carefully. This is the ONLY time you'll have to enter your cd key. Never give your cd key to anyone else. Treat it as you would your bank card.
  • Your email address will be needed. This is to help you when you forget your password because you can click a handy "Email me my password" link on the login screen.
  • If you're over 13 press the button and then finally press submit. Job done :).

Tribes 2 Community Browser
Unlike most games, Tribes 2 gives you a range of community options and features all accessible via the "Community Browser (pictured above). The features are arranged side by side below (game, news, forums, chat, browser), with settings options available by clicking the LAUNCH button.

Community Browser > GAME
The GAME area gives you access to your player set-up. This is similar to what you'll find in the "LAN Game" area in solo play, but with an added "Jump to Player Page" button which is a short cut to a page of information about you that other players can view. Each player has one.

Clicking the "Join" tab will take you to the server lists.

Community Browser > NEWS
Check out the latest Tribes 2 news, from the game creators and other players alike.

Community Browser > FORUMS
These contain a range of forums allowing you to read and post messages to other players.

Community Browser > EMAIL
This is Tribes 2 internal email and has nothing to do with any email accounts you used to sign up to Tribes 2. Think of this as an internal messaging system where you can contact other players.

Community Browser > CHAT
Chat to other players.

Community Browser > BROWSER The main community browser. Here's where you create a page about yourself. It holds details about you, like the date you joined the Tribes 2 community and which tribe your currently in. Other features include a "buddy list" and search functions so you can look for other tribes and players within the community.
Community Browser > GAME > Join (Servers) You'll probably want a closer look so click the image left for a bigger view. Everything is self explanatory apart from the filters. Depending on where you live in the world you'll want to select a filter for that region so that only local servers are displayed and not every single Tribes 2 server in the world :).
