Founders Tower & Labs (Spoilers)

[QUOTE=tokamak;341989]Forcing a team to divide makes the game more random. It becomes a form of rock paper scissors where you divide the amount of players over each objective before you know how the other team will do it.

If all eyes are on the same thing you have all players involved, they all contribute something and everyone is thinking and striving over the same goal. No random bouts of (bad) luck, just your wits against the other.[/QUOTE]

I don’t know, randomizing this game doesn’t sound so bad to me.

I played five games in a row today, some with up to 4 other players on my team, where they and the bots just headed like lemmings straight out the gate after re-spawning. No organization, no strength-in-numbers push, just blindrunning towards their objective.

If another objective was there for the taking or defending, I feel some of the focus could be divided for the better.

I’m sick of trying to take a tactical move on an objective, but instantly being countered by multiple enemies running around with nothing to do because the rest of their team has already got the obvious routes on lockdown.

Mind you, I’m moving into map design territory here…

[QUOTE=Overgear;341387]Same map but backwards, like Sec Tower.

At least Wolf can see my vision.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=wolfnemesis75;341130]The tower is huge and vast inside. Is what I think. There are many levels in the Tower. It is the nexus, and the hub of the world. A symbol of hope and prosperity. A beam of light…

All things serve the beam…

oops, different Tower. :wink:[/QUOTE]

your mom is huge and vast inside

Really…? We are goin down this road after page 3?

I was checking the Stat Site Map. And where Founders’s Tower is looks comparable in size to Container City. So I am envisioning a large map where you fight outside of the Tower then battle your way inside. I can’t tell where Labs will be on the map, especially since I think it is suppose to be underground.

The bigger the better


(wolfnemesis75) #47

One of these days you have to play on our team, brother…


(BiigDaddyDellta) #48

Wow, I never realized how many MORE places there were on the ark. I wonder if they plan on releaseing that much DLC? wouldn’t that be ****ing awesome!?


(wolfnemesis75) #49

that looks like the plan to me…and there are underground parts. and if anyone beat the game, you know that there’s another interesting element there as well that could be added.

We can live and hope. It’s one of the things that this game really needs right now; more maps.

Don’t hate me, but I prefer quality over quantity. More maps will be nice, as long as they are as good as the ones we have now.

Of course, you make it sound like I want maps at any cost. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

…While we’re on the subject of the new maps… Where the **** did Rock, Paper, Shotgun get this image? http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2011/06/24/brink-dlc-will-be-free-for-two-weeks/

(wolfnemesis75) #55

Good find. I am guessing that is Labs. and it looks like that gun has a shield on it? :smiley:


(Nexolate) #56

(BomBaKlaK) #57

just a bit !

the “it will be free on Steam for the first two weeks” is a joke ?
really ? the ones who buy the game after this date have to pay the DLC ?
we buy half a game and we have to pay quarter by quarter ? (cause DLC is not an half game…)

put your game as Free to Pay like TF2 !


(wolfnemesis75) #58

Founders Tower is the largest map in the game. Which screenshots are which?


(Zekariah) #59

Yeah, I’m always gettin screwed on that, huh?


(BiigDaddyDellta) #60

Well, i’m gonna say the one with many floors is def founders tower, the one with the green hue and all the barrels is most likely labs. as for the other two i’d say the open one with the people up on a balcony is labs and the one with the robots and a work bench is labs.
