This is where you can go if your negative about this game.
I’ll keep wolfnemesis out of this. Nemesis, let them complain in this.
Okay. I won’t be coming back. Complain now.
If it’s a constructive topic, please put it somewhere else. If you want to say the game won’t make it, just post here.
Thank you.
PS the point of this is to keep us optimists out!
I payed extra for the spec ops pack, but i stil lhave to buy both other ones on marketplace to get everything 
Despite everyone using this as players’ #1 complaint I’ve never actually heard that said or seen it posted here. I’m sure it’s valid for some players, but I think it’s a pretty small minority. None of my friends that quit and left Brink, let’s say 6ish, had ever even played CoD and they still didn’t like this title. As much as I love Brink it does receive some well deserved criticism and has problems in need of fixing that are generally largely agreed upon based on what I’ve seen/read/heard.

LOL I woke up this morning only to find this thread with no new replies at the bottom of the page and dozens of complaints / complaint threads / general bashing of positive people and devs at the top. I think I’m done with these forums. 
Brink had potential
…but it did not deliver
Oh! How sad I am!
what if we make our complaints in haiku form

Brink is a good game
It could have been the greatest
Perhaps in Brink 2.
Woe is unto they,
Brink Complainers, let us PUSH
THEM INTO THE SEA!!!
You missed a lot of CoD comparison back in the day. While many people didn’t directly come out and say “Why isn’t it more like CoD” (I think some did) there was still a lot of “Why doesn’t this game have X. CoD has X and I really like X.” or other thinly veilled references to generic shooter inclusions that don’t seem to fit Brink well.
The funny thing is, looking back now, perhaps there would have been greater player retention if there were more CoDesque features. But then would the game have been consireded to have sold out? Would it have to then be directly compared to the shooters it copied (not a good thing to do to a newly emerging IP unless it can really rival established shooters)? Would it have retained the essence that makes it Brink?
Would anything like that have helped Brink unlock some of it’s potential or would it have hindered it more?

There’s only two things I want Brink to have in common with CoD:
I don’t think so.
They can dress it up with all the fancy game modes they want, at the end of the day CoD is just a mindless deathmatch game. It’s designed as a sort of skinner box for pretty much any person, gamer or not.
That’s not what I play Brink for.

To a lot of us BRINK already sold out to the mainstream masses with so many PC bugs, features left undone, and then just not fixing things that were obviously broken from day one.
When I look at CoD, I see a generic game that’s built on a solid foundation. Is the game innovative? No, but the game works pretty well. You put that disc in/download it from Steam and you’re pretty certain it will work. I boot up BRINK and the first thing I see is a blurry logo (still blurry, by the way, even though my resolution is set to my native one, lol), and it just went downhill from there.
Both games have unbalanced things about them that will never be fixed, but at least with CoD there is a community that makes the game somewhat fun. Had BRINK not died, I might actually have fired it up every now and then to get a round or two in even though I don’t like it, but I can’t do that. I pop my 360 CoD disc in every now and then just to play a couple rounds and screw around when I don’t feel like playing a PC game. I’m pretty sure that BRINK might enjoy that luxury maybe every six months or so.
The only thing SD should have taken from CoD was to deliver a product that was working pretty well on release (talking about CoD4 here, haven’t played any CoDs on the PC since then besides the beta for WaW) and had the ability to actually retain a playerbase. Everything else should have been taken from RtCW and ET.
ATI is the biggest complaint for me now. On Reddit I’m hearing that it’s SD’s fault (because they easily fixed the worst at the start), and at the same time I hear it’s ATI’s fault.
I don’t care who’s fault it is, it ruins the game for a good portion of the gamers and either being silent on it or shoving the responsibility on either side leaves a sour taste in my mouth from both companies. I’m not going to buy another AMD card and I’m not buying any more SD/Beth products on the release date. It’s a bloody disgrace that this happened and no public statement makes it even worse.

Extra game mode types out of the box couldn’t have hurt. It didn’t have to be TDM. But King of the Hill, Search and Destroy, Territory Conquest, or Escort missions on every map would have been excellent.

King of the Hill with Turrets and Mines? Yuck. That sounds like Complainer City.
Guys. If you love this game stay out of this. This is their thread!
I just wanted an unofficial spot for them to whine. Thank you.
EDIT: The above is just for the other optimists. Your not whining, I get that your here because you feel as if you wasted $60 on a game that is horrible.
