Character Custimization...You will be a unique snowflake!


(Kryptyk Samurai) #1

I’ve never been one to get excited about character custimization in games. I usually move a couple bars around to adjust the facial features for a few minutes and then I’m in the game in a matter of moments.

Brink on the other hand…I’m excited about. Besides the near limitless possibilities, it sounds like the art team at SD really took to the time to make something original.

Here is a story at IGN (who I’m not a fan of…but I digress) where the interview Olivier Leonardi regarding the artistic design of Brink:

Most interestingly, here is a quote that got me real excited:

Thanks to the powerful customization system we developed, we were able to mix and match every single item of clothing with our three different body types. With each item offering about 10 different colour themes, our system allows millions of combinations and players will be able to build a very unique looking character without compromising the style of the game.

Ahh, the very first option shown to be modified: Women’s breast size. Keep it classy, APB!

Thanks OP, cool article.

Jeez guys are you the forum police or something? Besides im sure when he found this on IGN as you can see he was looking for the PS3, not the PC article (which is the same article) which may have thrown him off. But all in all what difference does it make its a repeat thread, doesnt mean you have to make your presence known and state that its a repeat. If you know, thats great leave it at that and dont post.

We will not be a beautiful or unique snowflake.

We are the same decaying organic matter as everything else.

Sorry, my avatar is showing.

What you or anyone says won’t make a difference, people will post repeat threads, and people will tell them it’s a repeat thread… neither will stop. You’ve just added a 3rd instance of whine on top of it.

And yes we are the forum police, u mad?

This might sound silly, but I think there will be some clothing that the majority of the players will choose, I can for example see The Anger Bandana, The Anger Hoodie, The Bug Facemask, The Eel Facemask, The Eel Hoodie, and The Lost Jacket get picked by alot of players :stuck_out_tongue:


(Realirony) #10

I would have to concur with that. but only because they are the only real articles of clothing that have been marketed to us. Every single brink vid, poster, or avater we’ve seen is representative of one of those Archetype clothes. If we were shown other pieces we would see a ton of that. Conditioned my good sir, conditioned like mices. :smiley:

I look forward to the customization.


(Schwarzeis) #12

Hm… Yeah, you got a point, Real :cool:

So do I, then I look forward to shooting someone :smiley:

i always wanted MORE customisation in games hopefully brink satisfies my needs :slight_smile:

The customisation options look really good, hopefully they will have a decent selection of clothing options when the game gets released. Splash Damage seem to keep besting itself with the customisation and the overall look of the game with every video they end up releasing, hopefully this game is good!
