Download the game here: https://playt2.com/#install The AIO download comes with some popular scripts and config all ready to go. Install the game. Open the game using the shortcut links provided in the install directory. If you try to open Tribes2.exe directly, you'll just see a warning to use one of the shortcuts instead. Use the online mode shortcut to open the game for online play. Once the game is open, you will see the log-in screen. If you don't have an account yet, click the Create Account button and follow the steps. Log in with your user name and password. On the Warrior Setup tab, pick your skin and voice pack. Switch to the server list tab, click to select a server, then click the join button to join the server. Play! The settings menus should be pretty obvious. Set up your keyboard layout. Traditionally, the default Tribes 2 keyboard layout uses ESDF for movement instead of the usual WASD. This gives you more keys on the left side to bind to additional controls such as zoom, health kit, etc. https://playt2.com/ has information about the game. https://playt2.com/guides https://tribaloutpost.com/ this site also has game info A web-based map browser and record player in development can be found here: https://exogen.github.io/t2-mapper/ If you download the vanilla game (or use an old install) instead of the AIO thing mentioned above, you will have to patch it with this: https://tribesnext.com/ or the latest preview release which can be found here https://tribesnext.com/forum/discussion/4430/preview-qol-fixes-update The latest preview patch is highly recommended.
