Brink Updates Live, Free DLC Coming


(meccs) #41

[QUOTE=Captain Judaism;304171]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.[/QUOTE]

But that still doesn’t fix the 8v8 lag! Actually it fixes nothing. It just gives you the option to lower the player count.

game feels heaps better with more frames on my ATI and proper FOV

Hope is all we have. Nerfing the game better be a band-aid. I want to play Brink with 7 friends vs. 8 other humans FOREVER.

Its such an amazing core game. They better fix it.

[QUOTE=badman;304112]We consider all of the feedback we’re getting from the community.

The PC version received a first round of AI tweaks today, which we’ll be bringing to the consoles in the title update.[/QUOTE]

god i love you guys. by far the BEST game devolopers so far. a BRAND NEW ip and you excecuted the release of BRINK with the percision of a ninja. thanks for the personal reply. good luck taking down the lame FPS gamer society we have at the moment (COD) but if theres one thing they did right it was lobbies.

So I got this incredibly (if a bit buggy) fun game, that’s quickly getting patched. And now we’re getting free DLC that’s going to contain maps, thats plural, and new content?!

Sweet!

Glad to hear there will be free DLC amongst the fixes!

And allowing me to place bacon on my guns.

Have tried to play mp several times today and it still lags so bad you can barely move. Well, you do move but nowhere you want to go. A free dlc is nice but I’d gladly trade that for some decent online game action.

Thanks SD, loving the quick fixes and dropping them before the weekend is just quality.

Badman: THANK YOU!

I’ve had faith in Splash Damage and they’re showing that its well invested.

Please keep the good times rolling! Those are key issues already being addressed, so thank you!

I’d also like to point out what a laggy mess most new IP’s are when first released. Give SD time, they’ll turn Brink epic, you watch.

Also, please consider whats in my sig. I think these 4 things are what Brink needs to stay relevant for years.

For a free Ark! This is awesome. :slight_smile:


(PsYcHo) #52

Wow! This are really great news. Thank you so much SD!! :slight_smile:


(Brink Lags) #53

OMG they didn’t fix the lag. What are you people reading?


(Mudknot) #54

Hmmm, I have good internet and receive bad lag on many games due to host migration issues and host selection. I dont think making it 4v4 is the route i thought you guys where gunna go to fix the 360 lag. How about, i dont know, fixing how your game selects hosts? 7/10 games are Really laggy, 2/10 games have some lag nothing horrid, and 1/10 is smooth as butter. Id like to see more smooth running games, with 8v8 humans, i dont want to play bots that dumb

Can you guys do an updated version of Railgun if it is possible? Some people might moan, but I think it is a great idea because it shows off the diverse nature of Brink, rather than having incredibly linear maps, objective wise. If that’s not possible, something like Axis Lab would also suffice.

Also: Having played Wolf for a long time, a few things off my wish list I would like to see in the game:

The ability to kick people like NoQuarter.

Covert Ops able to use weapons while in uni, rather than being largely useless.

Throwing back grenades. No, don’t wine. This is a locked balance because of the grenade’s short fuse. If someone cannot provide the correct amount of vulnerability cooking the nade in proportion to it’s timer while in the air or on the floor, they deserve to have it returned at full force.

And yeah, that’s about it.

Wait! When am I going to be able to import .md5meshes and .md5anims into max? I’ve got some character modelin’ to do, man!

(KAS--Will) #59

Thank you Splash Damage, I’m glad you appreciate me (and fellow gamers including my many friends), as much as you appreciate us. As a token of our gratitude, my friend and I, who are now officially ‘out of the closet’ for Splash Damage/BRINK; will do ANYTHING for SD… ANYTHING! :wink:
