DLC-1 Promo Videos?

(Bittermetal) #1

Hi SD!

I really loved the promotional videos shown on the road to BRINK’s release. Seems odd how quiet things have gotten.

Will there be a promo video for Agents of Change close to its release?

Thanks!

-Hit!

I’m dying to see the Napalm Grenade/Pyro Mine in action. It’s always good to have more fire.

I actually don’t mind not seeing it in action so we can be pleasantly surprised ourself and have a “ooh, waah, cool, awesome” moment which otherwise be spoiled by a video.

I definitely understand your plight. But I’m thinking from a marketing and exposure stand point. Promotional. I will say while I got a great feel for what I would be getting, in pre-launch videos… I never felt like they spoiled anything. The game has so much to do and seems to offer more each time I play.

yes yes. Same here.

I also am very curious about the Operatives UAV and the bayonet. Riot shield. Sounded interesting in the ad copy but seeing them on the gun… Seems pointless. but I would love to be proven wrong.

Now, upgrading turrets with armor piercing ammo and protective, shields would be awesome. But that has been mentioned on these forums before.

I’m curious about the OP UAV’s height and range. I have not-so-fond memories of using a UAV in Battlefield BC2 and being unceremoniously knifed in the back while trying to pilot it from its fixed control station. Hopefully it has enough range to control from the safety of the spawn point to prevent ‘unfriendly accidents’.

You’re making my poor, short-lived gatling turret feel bad. :smiley:

Don’t feel rained on, little Gattling turret. As an Operative I will take good care of you, giving you a much needed lunch break while I manually control you remotely.

The uav is going to be amazing if it plays anything like the strogg flyer drone in qwet. I can’t wait to try it out on refuel and security tower. My guess is it will be easier to hit, have less hp, do less damage when it explodes and a shorter range.

The gun shield looks awesome. Do we know which slot it will fill for attachments? Front or top or something new? I have to say when I saw the picture I was slightly let down. I was hoping for a massive cop riot shield you could duck down behind! A kind of deployable for the soldier.

I’m right there with you. Really looking forward to seeing how the UAV works out. Is it like BF2142, BFBC2, Q:ET… Gah! The mystery continues.

I’m reserving judgement on the shields. They look kinda cool. But also kinda like they might obstruct your view a bit… Also they don’t look very effective…though any shielding could help with all the shots flying around. I’m waiting to be thoroughly impressed but will settle for the DLC releasing soon. LOL.

Exciting though, innit?!

You getting on. We should see if we can get in a server with a sub 200 ping. haha

(HugePinball) #11

No need to speculate as far as the abilities are concerned; you can set up a dedicated server to override players’ abilities. Of course, SD could still tweak them a bit with the upcoming patch/DLC release. I think the UAV could use a little help, or maybe I just don’t know how to use it well.

Cant wait for the dlc cant wait to see the abilities in action and of course the maps

(NigelDocker) #13

Its funny how they spent allot of time and money on promo videos before it released, but now wont even give a sneak peak at the maps they said were planned to release last month, or even some sort of update apart from 1 in the whole month which was saying the maps are delayed with a few pics.

Oh well maybe now they are doing what they should have done all allong and shut their mouthes talking about how good its going to be hyping it up, and not wasting time or money making videos or advertising, but polishing off and finishing it and making it the best it can… Something that cant be said for the actual game

(MrFoxer) #14

Maybe they want it to be a suprise, I kinda do.

(Ultima) #15

Yeah, same here. I understand maybe releasing videos for people who want to see it, but honestly I’d rather just experience it firsthand.

(Spendlove) #16

I can’t wait for it! I’m already hyped and I’m old enough to know better!

(Esso) #17

No, they have no intrest in letting anyone know anything
