DESCRIPTION

Imagine a world that has been infested with a deadly virus that almost wiped out an entire race of people. The time setting for this world is in the far distant future, way past the millennium and the apocalypse has already come and gone. And with all governmental structures down and out, totally destroyed by war and disease, it is time for the people left on the desolate world to regain what they once had. Unfortunately, they all don't see eye to eye on things and have all pledged allegiance to different tribes. Each tribe is out to either destroy one another or unite them all together, and this is the premise of Starsiege: Tribes.

Starsiege: Tribes isn't your typical first-person action shooter. Instead of concentrating on a single player game (only training missions), it is meant to be played completely on-line. Because of its gameplay nature, there are a wide variety of games to choose from. You and your tribe can play Capture the Flag, Defend and Destroy, Find and Retrieve, Capture and Hold and (of course) Deathmatch. Each one of the games has certain mission objectives that need to be met in order to win the map. It is also very strategic in that you can order your team/tribe to carry out various side missions or command them to waypoints. You'll also get to set up mines and turrets to defend your base, use different armor classes, communicate with your teammates via pre-recorded voice samples, and control powerful aircraft. ~ Michael L.

“Nice, hopefully I'll be joining you with getting a new PC soon...but I need to wait on a few things for now. Mine is getting old and in a crashy stage...likely hardware related.

lol at tribes. That was a great game years ago. I haven't played it in so long though...probably middle school computer club, heh.”

“Goodluck on that build man, going AT* or Nvid**? Got one im about to post myself, so thanks for the inspiration for a new post :D

Btw, BIOS doesn't determine the RAM limit, OS & Hardware does...”

“@stukinit Back in the day I was Voodoo cards. Then ATI. However at the time I built my last computer (May of 07') Nvidia had more power stock on their cards (8800 Ultra I have). I was gonna go with Nvidia again, but going with ATI, I can have 4gpus :)

In regards to the RAM limit, boards even from 2 years ago have a lower ram limit in their BIOS. I am waiting for them to lift the 8gb limit on 64-bit Vista, however since I am going with Windows 7, I am wondering if they lifted the limit for it, then its a matter of the Motherboards letting their bios recognize more than 8gb.”

stukinit was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“So then... if i understand this correctly, your point is that 64-bit computing with the ability to address well over 1TB of ram is not able to handle more than 8GB's of System RAM. And that it is the Board AND Vista that are limiting the total allocatable RAM to 8GB's.

Currently Vista Business and above can support ~128GB of total RAM, so yes you are right that some boards can only support 8GB of ram, but it is the Board limiting the RAM, not Vista or Win7.

“The problem is normal consumer boards (at least up to like a year and a half ago) wouldn't support more than 8gb for 64 bit and 3.?? gb for 32bit. I thought this was still the case. Either way I'm going 64-bit Intel with Windows 7 with a touch screen, and using my Nvidia 8800 Ultra till' I can afford to dual dual gpu Radeons.”

“Tribes is one of those games/series I didn't even know existed until I found out about it much, much later. :( It's cool to see some screenshots now at least.”
