Hmmmm…bandwidth improvements is nice.
Now all the consoles need are a proper lobby and I might just play this game again.

It took a while, but as they say, good things come to those that wait. After the X-games is done for the day, I’ll be giving the weapon tweaks and other various fixes on the 360 a shot. This update couldn’t have come at a better time, as I had been playing Brink less and less the past few weeks, now my interest is renewed.
Also, I’m really damn happy that it’s being released the 3rd and not any later in August, as I’m leaving at like 4am on the 4th for vacation, and I wouldn’t actually pay for the DLC if I missed it.
Good job SD! The pictures look amazing, and I can only imagine to levels will be super fun to play as well.

I’m not trying to be a dick, by all means, but this game has definitely not lived up to it’s hype. It felt unfinished. I feel that the addition of multiplayer lobbies would have made this game 100x more fun for my friends and I (who hardly play it together). It’s a fun game, but I just don’t feel like it’s what most of us expected. Or maybe my friends and I just had higher expectations than most.
Please don’t get me wrong - I think you guys over at Splash Damage have a GREAT concept for a game going, and I hope to see it really develop in the next Brink title. As I said, it’s a fun game and i’m still glad I bought it - it just feels like it’s missing a lot for a game that is all about the multiplayer experience.
Either way, I look forward to checking out this new, awesome-looking DLC, though it’s way overdue.
Great work… cant wait… the screenshots looks amazing

So when can we expect the next PC patch? Maps are great but without gameplay tweaks the added content will only appeal to people for a short period of time.

Ofcourse we will get more updates!
I don’t believe they will drop the support after 2 1/2 months after working 3y? on this game.

Will this be preloaded on steam and unlocked at a certain time? Or will the guys with bad connections have to wait many hours til its playable?

A lot of very noticeable improvements in Brink. I played for 8 hours yesterday. Everything looked and ran smoother. The gun balanced seemed fine. Minigun is very powerful now. But as of now, I can live with that. 
Let the heavies have some fun! Liked the changes to stopwatch. It also helped a lot to eliminate Advanced. The pool of players was better. Definitely seeing and feeling the hard work put into the game tweaks. A.I bots were better on both sides. And even capped Objectives. Which is a great fix. Especially for those who just want to game solo. Some other guns are coming more to the forefront now like the Tampa, Galactic, and Euston. Which is good just to give the game some more variety.
Some cool ideas I was thinking is maybe you could throw in some kind of altered variant of a mode, or something and throw that in as a weekend playlist. Not sure what that would be, but it could just be some wacky version where all the character run at a higher speed or something. Not sure.
Too bad there wasn’t a way or a feature that allowed you just to change a mode from Objective to Stopwatch. Lets say we just played a match in competitive objective and we have 10 people and now we want to face off in Stopwatch mode. It would be cool if we could just hit start, scroll down the scoreboard and select switch it from Objective to Stopwatch right there. That way we don’t have to back out, start the stopwatch mode, then form back up. This may be more of a lobby thing, but perhaps its just a choice above options or added in the way that you added the new stopwatch progress tracker menu option.
Anyway, I am really looking forward to the DLC! Looks awesome. And good job on the fixes! Game looks and feels so much better! The graphics look better now; they look like they did when I first got the game before the second patch. So bravo!

The graphics look better on X360? On PS3, they’re just as bad as they were pre-patch.

Yeah I can confirm that on Xbox. They look much smoother and back to normal. So yeah, greatly improved. I can’t speak for PS3. Sorry.

Yeah, Lol. That’s why I was.
Interesting to hear improvements to X360. Shame they’ve not improved elsewhere.
