Tribes: Ascend Tartarus Update Out Today

A substantial chunk of content hit the recently-released free to play gofast simulator Tribes: Ascend today, including two new maps and tons of tweaks. Tartarus and Hinterlands are new CTF and Arena maps respectively, while punting physics has been toned waaaaay down for flags. Vehicles cost fewer in-game credits, and custom servers will now award XP as long as there are more than eight players in the server at any given time (presumably to curtail boosting).

I gotta say, I didn’t expect new content for Tribes so quickly. In fact, that’s faster than most for-pay games… huh.
