Think Quality over Quantity on this one, my friend. Welcome to da club.

[iezza]

Add the “Brink Hardcore Club” banner or change your title under your name to show support!

How do you do that? sorry i iz noob.

[thesuzukimethod]

You people? I own a ps3 dog

is that like an eyepet?

but seriously, i see this thread (club) as less a critique of people who are disappointed with the game, and more a (tongue in cheek given the rep that console players have as uber-casual) aggregation of some folks that while we recognize the limitations and problems with the game, are having a blast playing it. like last night. great matches ps3-folks!

and as an added bonus, we can take y’alls place when the next IP (or brink 2) comes out, and we’re all disappointed it’s not Brink 1b, and we can **** all over the new games new fans for not understanding how much more brilliant it could have been and how they’re dumb for liking it.

To the majority of pc guys who have expressed disappointment given what you saw as the promise of this game after your excellent experiences with ETQW/etc, I’m not talking to you - it’s the 5% who attack people who are enjoying the game that drive me to drink (more)

Totally agree! Now to fix your sig…

Think Quality over Quantity on this one, my friend.

With only 32 HRS played, this is exactly my feeling. 32 HRS of pure Brink fun with my PS3 friends.

I am here for fun while playing a video game. I understand all the problems stated and hope they get better for everyone. Time will tell. I am thankful for the PS3 group as I could see myself not playing or wanting to play as much. They are truly a fun group.

Brink works for my needs and I enjoy it and the people I play with.

Don’t let my meager 24 hours of played time fool you, if I didn’t have a wife and 4 kids, I might have Oschino-ian playtime numbers!

[thesuzukimethod]

would dig an improvement. i did my best with what i remembered of PS…but what design skills i do possess reside elsewhere…lol

Those numbers are irrelevant. Compare the percentage of console owners who bought the game vs pc owners.

Considering that there are literally billions of PCs, vs tens of millions of consoles, I’d wager that percentage is significantly lower than for console buyers.

BTW buying a game doesn’t equal support the way that word is being used here. Advertising, word of mouth and developer reputation sold the game. Support comes from the player base.

I’m still failing to see where any of this makes PC players more entitled to complaining or special treatment than console players.

I don’t have any problem with PC players. I have a problem with PC elitists. Both platforms have their advantages and disadvantages, and choosing one over the other in and of itself doesn’t make one any more of a “hardcore gamer.” We could compare bugs and patches and how many gigahertz are coursing through our e-peens until the sun comes up, but we’re all just trying to enjoy the game for which we paid. And while it may have its issues, I’ve read enough from all corners to see that those who want to enjoy the game can enjoy the game (except maybe a few unfortunate ATI users), and those that want to b!tch about the game are going to b!tch about the game.

[Oschino1907]

How do you do that? sorry i iz noob.

Not Sure If Serious? (funny picture of someone/something looking slightly confused)

But to everyone who doesnt know how to do it…

1. Go to “Community” then “My Profile & Settings”

2. Go to “My Signature” and add the banner URL or save it and Upload it to the picture section of it or…

3. Go to “Edit Your Details” and under Optional Info add “Brink Hardcore Club” to the “Custom User Title”

anything with the eels face mask and the hardcore sig u can put my xbox gt on there R o IN i IN. and if u want u can put created by : and your name

Hope this works for you. No need to put my name on it.

You should care about points. Because if you only care about an attitude, you’re missing the point - so why even bother? Points are far more important than attitudes.

When only partially valid points are used to support a particular attitude that is disparaging to others, I will address each as I see fit, and the posts I was responding to contained a lot more attitude than substance.

See, this is a good example of missing a point while addressing an attitude. PC players aren’t waiting for a “patch”. PC players are waiting to see when SD might release the game they’d been waiting for, and are still waiting for. PC players are scratching their heads thinking “well, I knew they weren’t making ET:QW 2, but I wasn’t expecting THIS”. If you cannot see the design decisions that have been forced into this game due to the console versions, you’re not just missing the point, you’re blindly ignoring it.

I’m not claiming that there weren’t any console-influenced design decisions. However, SDK notwithstanding, I don’t see where any of these are game breaking. Also, some of these issues are tied more to a console’s hardware limitations (namely, number of buttons). It’s not like it was console players that designed the controllers. I agree that PC players should have more versatility in their action key bindings, but my problem is still with the attitude that says “Screw you n00by casual console kiddies! You ruined my game!” and it is that to which I’m responding. We didn’t write the code. People can b!tch all they want about the influence of the console market on PC games, but apparently Bethesda/SD wasn’t satisfied with the return they were getting (or would potentially get) on their PC-only games, and decided to reach out to consoles. Maybe the PC folks should complain to their fellow players for not giving SD enough support to keep them satisfied with their own platform.

I’m still struggling to believe that you posted this. I mean seriously? Have you any idea how large the gap is, between console install base and PC gaming install base? Kids everywhere aged 10 have access to consoles and parents who like to buy them games like Brink - the PC couldn’t hope to match that audience. I doubt there is a single multi-platform title in history, that sold more on PC than it did on console - it simply can’t happen. This is what has driven SD’s choices to “console-ise” Brink - however, that did NOT mean that the PC version had to be lumbered with stupidity like “one button does all”, and no ability to have sprint and SMART on different keys. Those decisions could have been avoided, and it’s THOSE decisions that have pissed off the PC following of SD.

I’m sorry, you’re right… ten year olds never have access to PCs. :rolleyes:

You’re on the right track, though. Your points about “console-ised” functions on the PC are valid (though hardly game-breaking). But keep in mind that it was SD’s choices to “console-ise” the PC version of Brink. Differentiate between the developer and the players. Differentiate between the hardware and the players. Stop deflecting responsibility onto people that just want to enjoy games without having to sit in an office chair two feet from their screen and upgrade their machine every two years. Console players didn’t make your game.

Put down your flappy-stick controller and use your brain for five minutes - maybe then you’ll care more about point than attitude.

Oh, and you were so close. Actual reasoned discussion, and then you had to go there. Crank down your r_smarmyelitist to below 50, and maybe you’ll understand that it was the attitude that was predominate, so that’s what got my response.

[Oschino1907]

LOL all those Triple X’s above my sig took forever to get right… This is beginning to spread like wildfire!!!

Oh and thanks Digital!!!

Oh and thanks Digital but I dont think you made my gamer tag any bigger? I was pretty out of it when I wrote you so I might not have been clear, lol last night was kinda of a blur after a while and I feel asleep with my system and Brink still on but in the Menus.

If you dont remember or I didnt tell you I just wanted it slightly bigger so the border around the edges is the same but so that the name itself is bigger, example: so the “0” in 1907 is the same distance from the head below it as it is from the border above it. Sorry for being nit picky but can be OCD at times about things.[/QUOTE]

Now I’m lost. I did make it bigger. The height and width of the font is fixed. How is this my OCD friend?
