I agree - I don’t understand why all the hate on this game! The lag was a problem, but all games suffer from lag sometimes. I haven’t exp. any lately and all I have been having is fun!
I actually have just posted a detailed review - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmcILoeweEU
Yes, it’s a fun game. I really didn’t enjoy COD because some people took it way to seriously. Hate is a strong word to describe the “Haters” of Brink. How about “greatly dislike.” LOL
I don’t think theres anything wrong with a boosting thread in the sea of flame threads.
What I love about Brink:
-Finally movement that feels natural and smooth (smokes COD in my opinion)
-Weapons that can have multi mods without some stupid Perk. They don’t tell the Navy Seals “Hey you can only have a silencer, or a red dot sight. But not both…” I’ve missed this since Army Ops.
-The character editor smokes any other shooter on the market by a landslide. I love it, it looks beautiful. And I see every last detail in game too (xbox)
-All the weapons feel balanced. And the accuracy in this game is beautiful. Love how hipfiring isn’t useless. If i’m 20 feet away from you with an M60, I’m GOING TO HIT YOU.
-The body types and classes all feel fun and balanced. Zero complaints there. Love each body type too.
-Weapon sounds are the best i’ve heard in any shooter. Period.
-All the weapons are FUN. I hated the FAL in COD, but the FAL equal (Rokstedi?) is awesome! Love my Drognav too, great rifle.
EDIT: Forgot leaning! Holy crap i’m so glad they put this in here! Another thing i’ve missed since Army Ops.
Once they iron out the kinks, this game will be perfect and i’ll play it for years.
Not EVERYONE… but most of them are COD players.
Hey guys Modern Warfare 3 is going out soon. Excited? You should be. 50 levels, 10 prestige levels… you can spend thousands upon thousands of hours playing the same game from 2005.

I agree with all your points, Baker. But also…
LAST BUT NOT LEAST:
Have you guys noticed that on some maps, the spawn timer is different than yesterday? Now some weapons feel LESS overpowered since this morning?

Yeah but 20 levels only???!!! Cmooooon I want the monies I didnt spend back!
/gentle troll
Oh sure, get the people mad at the mods instead of whatever else they are mad at… No thanks.
I can help but think that this is because you you were so negative leading up to the launch. Hype is rough.
Got your back! Tell them I’m a ninja mod who deleted everything, the hate makes me stronger 
I find this amusing also, finaly we (and me within) where all moaning about the game but now we are here “defending the devs” (Well they dont need that pat on the back, but I think we all are fair in our judgments) I didnt even play the game yet, I’m just shocked by the insult’s influx that is comming from total anonymous who didnt follow anything bout Brink untill they bought it, and now act all like “WTF 8 maps only???”
So yeah lets spread the rage to the noobs and the love to the chosen ones!
Buhahahaha!
Peace
/apples getting a bit crazyer each drunkday…
Its decent, but not great. I have fun with it now and then. 7/10. No hater, no fanboy either.
I hate haters, but I hate fanboys too. Lol.
I really like this game, but I am on PS3 and the lag is terrible - to the extent where there literally is no point playing. Sometimes I find a relatively lag free match - but there is only like 3 human players, so I may aswell just be playing offline.
Its frustrating, but I really like the game - its fun - it just doesnt work well on consoles at the moment
4 days and i’m having the time of my life with brink.
only minor lags and a few bugs and glitches from what i’ve experienced, game play is great and i absolutely dig the fire fights that occur on certain map-choke points.
i’m 100% positive this game will (even) grow (on me) over the next months…
way to go SD! and keep up the good work.
(set up a webcam in the office to show the folks how hard you are working on this brilliant IP) 
OP: lol just because brink is running good on your system you cannot judge the other ppl who are still waiting to get an enjoyable version of brink. yes put on a webcam to show how hard you shouldve been working before releasing this unplayable game…
Feel free to say that brink is great but dont judge those who are expiring extreme!!! bugs… 20 fps on a hd 5780 … yes keep up the great work…

There is a difference between asking nicely and putting up threads saying THIS GAME SUX SD ARE RETARDS and then posting fifty posts in random threads in the style of “whatever, this game sucks anyway, **** you SD.” (here’s looking at you Trypsonigen).
If I were SD, I’d read a post with correct grammar and well-used interpunction over DIS GAME SUX ALL MAH FRIENDS RETURNED IT 2 GAMESTOP HRAUAEOIHRAGH.

… but his friends returned it to GameStop :o
Let me start by saying that I love this game.
However, being critical towards certain flaws in its execution (the sounds that disappear, the lag at times etc) is in no way comparable to hating the game. It’s certainly true that the newer generation of gamers (I’m 33 myself and have been gaming for 25 years now) is thinking that FPS equals CoD-style gameplay (as in Team Deathmatch, k/d ratio is everything and teamplay is for wusses), whereas we as older gamers still remember much more team orientated games like Unreal Tournament 2004, Team Fortress Classic, Unreal 2 XMP etc.
@IG THOMBOW: There will always be trolls and those people deserve to be ignored, I agree. But comparing people who make a structured argument about things that are wrong with the game with CoD-fanboys is shortsighted. No game can ever be a 100% perfect but if people point out issues which hold merit and could be addressed it shows respect from the developer towards its customers if the developer gets on the ball so to say.
SD has done a good job so far, I would like to thank them for their contact with the community and Brink-fanbase. Being critical towards certain flaws in the game they made is by no means stating “this game sucks”, nor does it constitute a flame attack on SD itself. As long as criticism is properly explained and constructively written it deserves to be respected and the matters it adresses should be discussed.
why bother to post and read (assuming you actually do) those threads then?

finally a well founded opinion which is rare these days.
especially the last paragraph! i do miss a certain respect from new members whose complaints a legit and valid. however they undermine their criticism by the way they articulate it.
