Brink Updates Live, Free DLC Coming

(voiceboxed) #21

Great news, and keep up the good work, but you broke my save. I’m a little mad.

(Tear 08) #22

Whatever doubt I may have had about this game, has now vanished, if you remain this swift at fixing the problems and answering the crowds then I can see this game doing damn fine…but as other’s have said, a lobby to party up with friends would be much appreciated…oh, and a hell of a damn thanks is deserved for the Free DLC, damn nice of you…

So when i log on to xbox live and onto brink i’ll be prompted for an update? :slight_smile: gonna try now

Shiet, you guys at Splash Damage are quick at fixing/patching/changing your stuff :stuck_out_tongue:

And I must say… Thanks alot and holy **** for the DLC announcement - free? On the XBOX? And what can this be? :stuck_out_tongue: What-ifs and Customization?

Glad to see free maps. There aren’t a lot right now and it’ll also encourage players to keep playing.

Awesome news on the fixes (especially the AI) on the 360, same with the free DLC!

Did anyone actually read the text? They removed 50% of the players (for people with lower internet connections). That’s not “fixing the game”!

(Schwarzeis) #28

Just one more thing…

It might just be me not understanding it, but are they removing 8v8 from Versus Campaign and inserting it into Big Team Freeplay only? :confused:

(Brink Lags) #29

LMAO. That’s not a fix! That’s a nerf. My friends and I bought this game to play the full 8v8 experience. That’s how this game was designed to be played from the ground up.

I feel like I’ve been robbed.

Oh, we can still join 16 player matches can we? But they won’t function sans lag.

If 4v4 lags will the next fix be 2v2? Then 1v1 if that’s no good.

Here’s an idea, if you can’t figure out how to code a game without dedicated servers, DONT ATTEMPT IT AND DONT SELL ME ON 8v8!

Thieves.

The tragedy is I think this could be the best FPS MP released on consoles to date. So frustrated that they can’t deliver the real experience.

(Brink Lags) #30

Really. I don’t think the comprehension is functioning for the people praising this “fix”. Good god. We just got nerfed and people are singing praises.

Unreal.

(TheBigLebowski) #31

Very nice! Thanks :slight_smile:

At first when I skim-read the text it sounded nice, then I went deeper and I got more questions

Are they making campaign 4v4 humans with the other 8 spots filled by bots only?

They’re removing the full player matches?

(meccs) #33

^ See? They just see “FIX” and say thanks! Lol!

(scub) #34

i never doubted you guys, hopefully this will put a plug on a lot of the whiners so we can actually have some good useful discussions on 1337 BRINK

I think they’re seperating it sort of like Bad Company 2 has special “Squad” modes where they take the 16v16 down to 8v8. They are adding a 4v4 mode along with the 8v8, you just now have the optionto use both but you need to decide which mode you’re going for aka “Big Team 8v8” or this new 4v4 thing.

Granted I don’t have a 360 but since no one else has said anything I’m just speculating.

Would be awesome if badman could come in here and answer this :confused:

(voiceboxed) #37

not even subtle!

(BJBlaskowitz) #38

Is it just me or did they speed up the running and widen the FOV in the patch? Game much more fluid and fun like this. Makes the Parkour less clunky.

(Brink Lags) #39

They just nerfed the game on you pal. Wake up!

THe maps are huge for a reason. To support 8v8. Not 4v4.

What a bunch of mindless sycophants.

The game they made is now half it was meant to be. All the years of testing and balancing was done for EIGHT VS EIGHT! You now have an ugly stepchild that won’t deliver the intended experience.

(Tear 08) #40

I’m assuming out of good faith…and I do mean assuming, like, literally just a stab in the dark…that Splash has done this so people can still play the game right now in it’s current state, while they work on the actual solution to the actual problem in the Netcode…or whatever the hell the problem is…
