Few questions.


(asmo) #1

Hi all!

Long time after my last post, i have few questions regarding Brink (sorry if i repeat some questions):

  • Will i be able to setup Brink dedicated server on my machines or i’ll be forced to rent it from GSP (ranked/unranked) ?

  • How many players max can play on one server ?

  • Will be Brink moddable (custom maps / modes / et cetera) ?

and last but not least tho i don’t expect answer on this one:

  • Any updates regarding native Linux port ?

See you on the Ark :wink:

How are “no updates” supposed to be officially confirmed? Wouldn’t the confirmation be an update?

lol true, my apologizes then i misunderstanded, i get that ‘sadly no’ = ‘no there wont be linux port’

ok in that case i still have HOPE that Linux Port will be released ! :smiley:

get all your Linux buddies to flood the Bethesda forums demanding a Linux and Mac port, they’re the ones to determine whether it will happen or not

Just note that Nail said the BETHESDA FORUMS… not here… we know already… so really not here

:wink:

yes, both Linux and Mac ports are up to Bethesda, if it was up to SD, they’d already exist

Brink uses OpenGL, actually. There’s a small mountain of technical details over at PC Games Hardware: http://bit.ly/9Im6Pe

Thats a tweet from splash damage, im not to familar with linux, but i think the game using Open Gl is a good sign(thats what ive heard atleast)?
Also im pretty sure all previous SD games had linux support, and they are using the same IDtech4 which was used for ETQW.
But as i said im not really familar with Linux, so take this info as u will

Although, as has been pointed out, it’s a heavily modified version of IDtech4
