Any reason why the update PC and show more support for it than consoles?

[QUOTE=DarkangelUK;357395]Just for clarification, Brink.tv isn’t an official service, it’s fans of Brink that created this and run purely by them, SD and Bethesda have nothing to do with this.

It’s a reasonable assumption that both consoles have more players than the PC, but again PC updates are far easier to implement and far quicker to release. I have no idea if all 3 are worked on at the same time or individually, but I’m guessing there’s so much that can all be done at once, then small subsequent coding required for each platform. I have no idea if there’s a rule for how many submissions can be made for one game at Sony/MS, so it had to be coupled with the DLC. I don’t believe the consoles were left behind while the patches were being made, I do believe it’s the submission process holding it all back.[/QUOTE]

I knew and understand that Brink tv is by fans for fans but i mean with all the attention the pc version seems to get from devs(just assuming)since its easier to release things to pc they seem to not do enough for the consoles as of late and people dont seem to care about them anymore as a result it seems… Can you help me out? I’m searching in the dark here lol

My understanding is there’s cost as well as processes attached to updates on console. Thus, any updates are rolled in together.

On PC, they can be deployed smaller and quicker since there’s not as much bureaucracy involved. The next update for PS3 and X360 should contain all changes that are available on PC now (obviously won’t contain any specific to PC - i.e. new dedicated servers or server browser fixes etc).
