[QUOTE=Humate;275465]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. :([/QUOTE]

Based on the icon, I really doubt it’s related to interrogation. Looks like some sort of bomb.

EDIT: The Rank 5 Operative ability is the EMP grenade. I paused the Bethesda video at 0:51 and it clearly says EMP on the icon.

Could have been longer, but it’s still very decent.

Silenced shotgun, sticky bomb, hack turret, chucking a molotov on a guy who was using downed fire… man I cannot wait for this game!


(Kinjal) #24

Nice! keep it coming


(Schwarzeis) #25

Great customization, great movement system, great looks, great ideas, and hopefully… A great game

Yeah, May 20th couldn’t come sooner

I’d say it’s the “hacking from a distance” ability.

That’s quite a nice video… can’t wait for the next :smiley:

Hacking from a distance? Has this been confirmed? :smiley:


(Herandar) #28

Yeah, I thought of that after I posted. Makes more sense.

Remotely operating turrets!
They said you could use them in first person view.


(JeP) #30

I think, yes, but I’m to lazy to look for the source ^^ And we don’t know what this would be restricted to.


(Schwarzeis) #31

Aight, thanks anyway, Jep!

This game is starting to look like lots of fun…can’t wait to test it out.


(Joe999) #33

awesome and all. you may gief beta now


(Mustkunstn1k) #34

The video is starting to get reposted…
Oh god… the ignorance in Machinima viewers. I can’t take it.
People comparing the self-revive ability to a perk in Call of Duty… Try to fight these people if you can, just show them the light.

  • Brink has an energry bar.
  • High-level ability that means a high sacrifice.
  • Medics review people all the time. This isn’t CoD where people usually don’t get revived.
  • Only for medics.

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.[/QUOTE]

I have not seen that before. That’s neat. I wonder how it will work?


(Jess Alon) #36

Just being in disguise and hacking turrets could cause a lot of chaos. As well as spotting enemy mines.


(Herandar) #37

By ranged, I only meant like 5-10 feet away. I truly doubt they’ll allow anything farther than that. Also, could be wrong, but the icon is of a remote control of the type used for R/C cars. Alternate possibilities would be a remote car/camera or remote bomb. But if it were the latter, I think we would have heard about it by now.


(DarkangelUK) #38

Also worth noting that the hack time increases the further away you are from the remote panel.


(ZernoK) #39

Didn’t really like the sound from the pistol that the self reviving medic used, feels like I’m gonna get a headache if I’m gonna use it ingame. Could just be me though…

On a side note it takes 300,000 XP to completely max out your character.\
