In this video, I discuss Tribes Ascend's new "Cloak and Dagger" update for the Infiltrator and the effect such updates can often have on gameplay balance. I also talk about the struggle between creating a highly competitive game that also evolves as new content is released over time.

How do you think a developer like Hi-Rez can strike a good balance between the casual and competitive aspects of its game? Let me know in the comments!
