It is reviews like this that count, actual encounters from actual gamers. It is right here that will make or break any game. In the Tribalwar Forums Nordramor posted his thoughts of Tribes: Vengeance from time playing it at E3. His opinion on the game closely mirrors that of Musashi.

Skiing is weird. You accelerate while skiing, but slowly. Basically, it had the acceleration of T2 Base skiing, but with no slowdowns while going uphill and no discernable speed cap. Due to the size of the maps (small), you didn't have much room/need to skii long enough to go fast. You can cross the whole map only touching the ground 2x for a few seconds in a Heavy with an E-Pack. T:V skiing right now is pretty much it's own thing; it's not a direct translation of skiing from T1 or any of the T2 physics set.
