the complexity of t2, with the air support, the jetpacks, the versitility of the terrain is what made it good.
Any game without air/jetpacks is just another unreal/quake3 with pretty graphics.
Jetpacks did not make Tribes 2. The combo of terrain, teamwork and strategy made it how it is. Jetpacks were just a simple add on when they were developing that just made it that much better. A game without jetpacks can and will be better than Tribes/Tribes 2. Jetpacks aren't anything big. I personally think that if there were jetpacks in, lets say, Half-Life or UT it would just make the game worse. Tribes/Tribes 2 is just a game were it made it that much better.
i for one think, that all games are pretty boring if theres no jetpacks, i like being free, to move anywhere, not just walk on the ground, thats why we play games, to experience stuff we can't do in our "real" lifes, plus it makes it better, cause your aiming in all directions, and not just back and forth
