I’d say Brink seems pretty fast for a game that is supposed to be played with a controller. The typical low sense / pitch ET player won’t be happy as well with all the different height levels, sliding and vaulting. No more simple tracking in straight lines but many ups and downs.[/quote]

I think this is just great. It’s such a simple thing to understand, yet it turns out to be something that even the “hardcore” players will spend some time mastering.

You can shoot em in the air, but now while they’re cooking. In today’s playtest, I actually shot my first enemy grenade out of the air. Blew up in his face. It was awesome!

That is great, humiliating deaths will be aplenty in Brink. You put so much stuff into this game that nobody would expect. Keep it going and make this the best game ever!

[QUOTE=darthmob;202888]Just yesterday I saw QuakeLive played with the default 90fov and damn it seemed soo slow. Darkangel definitely got a point there.

I can’t wait to see teams coming coordinated around corners. A typical measure in ET was just getting the right height and ding ding ding headshots all around. Now you have to keep in mind that people will be sliding and vaulting which will look pretty awesome and will require some decent aiming (or one well placed grenade) as well.

What comes to my mind are those movie scenes where a gang of skaters or parcour runners is moving through the city. They are pretty fast and effective but nevertheless they always show off their skills and tricks. :D[/QUOTE]
You weren’t thinking of this were you :smiley:

Whaha that was the crappiest movie I’ve ever seen but that scene totally made it worth it.

I would totally love it if a cut scene in Brink referred to that.
