Brink is Free to Play on Steam Until Sunday!

BC2 isn’t a Steam game.

Ah, well fair point - but Brink is still in it’s highest position since just after launch, so it’s all good

I made a news post about that on OCN and …

Uninstalled, piece of crap game…

Holy **** what a crappy game.

tried it for 5 mins, not my kinda game uninstalled

Haha that’s exactly what happend to me today. Game is so trash. To think i almost bought this piece of junk.

Not worth the time. A week after release there was less than like 500 people playing this. Trash game.

It’s not even worth the time downloading it. What a fail. =/

This game is boring, so glad I didn’t buy it, would have wasted my money and time if I actually bought it, poor console port and horrible graphics. Looks like if this game was made in 2005.

well i have 8 minutes played on it and i think thats all i will ever have… just really not my type of game.

I installed and played it for 40 seconds before I uninstalled this POS

Quite literally the biggest disappointment I’ve ever experienced in PC gaming.

Good you left out the positiv feedback, though. Yes, there was. I hope the other not-posters are happily playing right now…

As much as I’ve criticised Brink myself, I find those comments pretty hard to swallow Played for 5 mins? Opinion irrelevant. 500 players 1 week after release? Actually it was around 18,000 on the PC alone. Steam stats don’t lie. “Not my kinda game” - that isn’t even feedback on the game itself

To be honest, unless people go into detail with their feedback, it isn’t really worth squat. A lot of people simply don’t like it because it doesn’t play like their favourite games - but that’s the whole idea, and their favourite FPS is potentially CoD-whatever. It was never going to imitate or match that experience, so they’re bound to be disappointed if that’s what they were expecting.

Now, if they’d said things like “auto highlight is laggy” and “one button for all abilities is horrible” their thoughts might be valuable. But, I see nothing worthwhile in that thread - only pointless one-line retorts that indicate a lack of intelligence rather than proof of a taste in games

@ needforWeed, it’s easy to say one liner comments. Reading those one lines it seems its all kiddie talk

No, this was the best time. Game has lots of extras with the free dlc and fixes plus rebalance.

On an afterthought , I agree with you on the timing. As I said , I didn’t play the DLC on servers when i was posting that. I would wait till one week after the free weekend is over to make a judgement.

AHHH! I can’t believe I missed this I’ll have to do a better job at keeping up with Splash Damage and Brink…

The game is still discounted right now and comes with Free DLC. Hurry up!

I didn’t know OCN, but indeed it seems full of people who seem to enjoy posting short message with abundance of words “crap”, "trash and so on, of course devoid of arguments and with a huge PC gear specs list attached.

I’m gonna steer clear of this little dark corner of the internet, thanks

Also, these guys complain about the price of a game where they probably spend fortunes in PC gear that would be used to full effect in somewhat rare gaming occasions…
