Abilities Take Center Stage in New Brink Trailer


(Cla) #1

This morning we put up a new gameplay vidoe that gives a taste of the 50+ Abilities you’ll be able to unlock in Brink. Ability unlocks includes ones specific to individual character classes (Medic, Solider, Engineer, and Operative), as well as universal abilities.

Yes, this is EXACTLY the type of video I was waiting for. Much less goofy than the last one.

A new story entry has been added:
[drupal=775]Abilities Take Center Stage in New Brink Trailer[/drupal]

After previously showing off Brink’s guns and classes, the latest gameplay trailer is all about player abilities. Cleverly titled Ready and Able, the video shows off several of the many skills you can purchase for your character, mixed in with plenty of exciting in-game action. There are over 50 abilities in the game, offering up many different ways for you to specialise your character to best suit your preferred playing style.
You can catch the video via the embed below or in spectacular HD over in the Splash Damage YouTube channel.

I’m really loving how finally we have new trailers rolling out right after another. I really hope they can keep this up until launch… and even make the wait between new stuff smaller when really close.

Looks like the Shotgun can be silenced.

And that the Security uses Molotov cocktails as well. … I would have preferred the security to use incendiary grenades instead, since Molotov seem too crude for the security :(.

What music is being used? This is way too awesome to be game music.

That’s one of the longest known things about Brink. Rahdo hinted at it a year ago.

I loved the music from the ‘Matter of Class’ video. I hoping that the music in the videos is taken from the Brink soundtrack.


(Striker92) #12

anyone else see how it says u can shoot while in disguise…or am i reading that wrong??


(tokamak) #13

Yeah you can, but apparently you lose it when you come to close to an opponent.


(DouglasDanger) #14

This is very well-done. Awesome!

The wiki guys should be able to pull a ton of stuff from this.


(Striker92) #15

i thought it was only when u get close to the opponent ur disguised as:rolleyes:


(Humate) #16

Nope, you lose the disguise as soon as you interact with an objective, fire your weapon or youre hit with a homing beacon. The vid also says, the disguise fails if the enemy sees you in the process of disguising yourself.


(Herandar) #17

So, it looks like Satchel Charge ability is restricted to Rank 5 (Level 20) Soldiers. The Gatling Turret is restricted to Rank 5 Engineers. The Rank 5 Operative ability is the EMP Grenade. And I’m guessing the Rank 5 Medic ability are the Lazarus Grenades.

Operatives get some sort of [strike]remote controlled vehicle[/strike] ranged hacking and Cortex Bomb at rank 4 (Level 15-19).

Looks like there will be a reason to play with our level 20 characters after all.

‘‘This disguise lasts until you interact with an objective, fire a weapon or are hit by an enemy Homing Beacon’’

Yep, reading it wrong, you got me worried that they could shoot in disguise there :stuck_out_tongue:


(Humate) #20

Operatives get some sort of remote controlled vehicle and cortex bomb at rank 4. No idea what the Rank 5 Operative ability is yet. Anyone else figure it out?

I seriously hope they got rid of high level interrogation, and I’m hoping that remote control thingy isnt it.
Its the only one I cant make out. :frowning:
