Brink

[RavenSEAL]

Anyone playing it during the free weekend?

 

[Dankk]

Yup. Already had it installed from the last free weekend, and I was able to jump back into it just last night.

I've been trying to complete some of the challenges to unlock more stuff... it's extremely difficult because the team AI is goddamn retarded, and they never actually help you until the enemy has essentially built the great wall of china. I need to get some real friends to join me if I want to be successful at all on some of these challenges... otherwise they don't seem possible.

Parkour is still as clunky as ever. Scratch that - Brink feels clunky in general. Even if you play lightweight, it still feels like you're maneuvering a tank. Not very good for a game that tries to emphasize smooth sliding, hopping over obstacles, etc, etc.

Pistols are useless. Not sure why anyone would equip one as their secondary weapon, when you can use an SMG that's more powerful than any of the pistols.

It's also VERY bad design when you can't even tell what class another player is supposed to be. Maybe not a big deal for some people, but considering that Brink is trying to clone TF2's success, they fail miserably. In TF2, all I have to see is a few pixels of an enemy player, and I think: "Oh. That's a medic." In Brink, an enemy runs up to me and I go "What the hell? What is that thing?"

So much wasted potential here. I see F2P in this game's future.

One of the devs posts over in the SomethingAwful forums and he said they're doing as much. That's why I'm resisting buying it at $4.

My asshole is still sore from buying this game because I got raped.

Worst game I have ever spent money on. They wonder why people pirate games? It's because we got crap shoveled at us consistenly.

I have never pirated a game, but Brink made me wish that I had.

I suggest we only charge you if you like the movie. Tickets can then be $50.

Then more people will say they don't like it because $50 is outrageous so we charge $100.

Then no one will pay.

Then we'll have no movies except "Police Academy 25: the reality tv version".

You have reviews. You have forums. You have word of mouth. Use them.

Brink was decent enough, I got about 25 hours worth out of the game when it was released.

It is, ultimately, flawed and not a game I will play again. Definitely some real potential there though...

AWESOME! Please tell me where I can get unlimited access to any game I would like for the low price of $10 or so a month.

Oh thats right. I cant. Guess your little analogy stopped at anal.....Cause thats where it seems to have come from.
