Genders in Brink

(zenstar) #101

[QUOTE=StillBatusBrad;338612]You smell nice, grow up faster than us, come to be the focus of our lives…and then take half of our **** when we inevitably mess up.

Oh, and you’re poorly designed and become mildly unstable on a monthly basis.

My wife runs my entire life, thank god she’s not a gamer as well!..:D[/QUOTE]

No dude. I have a gamer wife and it’s great :slight_smile:
She doesn’t play all the games I play (she doesn’t like FPSs that much for example) but where our spheres of gaming interest overlap it’s awesome!

Closest ‘my Doris’ comes to gaming is being an unstoppable force on Wii Bowling…

She has the uncanny ability to make identical throws time after time, once she gets a strike she just repeats, again and again and again…

It’s enough to make you want to gouge your ****ing eyes out with a spoon.

Rest of the time she’s happy to be rid of me and the boy, as it stops us constantly reminding her that she has a soap opera habit…and that they’re, without exception, rancid crocks of ****.

19 years together and counting…the formula’s sound!

Well…it’s the dream.

Hold onto that wife and never let her go!!

Oschino, I don’t think I’ve seen anyone rage as hard as you do in my life.

Take a friggin’ chill pill.

You just make an ass of yourself assuming everything in life. I don’t think I have ever seen someone show up to a thread with nothing of value at all to add but to read the whole thing and attempt to judge someone elses emotional stability at the end.

Get a life and worry about yourself, I laugh hard at most of YOU kind of people, hahahaha I am not the biggest Lewis Black fan but do you really think he is truely diplaying his actual feelings when hes doing his act? Also if you knew anything about who Skip Bayless is or about how he debates and covers things then maybe you would understand a lil more also. But no you have struck the core of me through a handful of post in a single thread, I must rethink my entire life now! Thanks for the advice… Fart Mop…

My opinion. This guy has some serious issues, but I fear they can’t get solved in this thread. There are professionals out there wich may can help you Oshino.

(zenstar) #108

How about everyone stops making personal judgements about other people in the thread?
(Both sides of the debate line here).

Seriously. Stick to the vague topic of the thread and don’t let it get personal / make judgements on others.

1.Sorry, but who are you? I’m not a your little kiddy.

2.If someone is as hostile as this person it has to be made clear, that we as usual posters have enough of his hatred and anger. It has to be said. And I’m not the only one who feels nerved by his hate spamming.

3.This forum is about a game. Let us remember that from time to time. We are no psychotherapists, but this guy seriously needs one…or two.

Funny thing in this thread is, there are two factions. One says, it would like to see fems in Brink and the other one DON’T says they wouldn’t like it. NO, they say it can’t be done because of blablabla. Did those guys actually work for SD or had an internship there. Why are so many people here trying to convince everyone else that something can’t be done? Let SD decide what can be done and what not, they are big guys, they don’t need you to back them up.

Yeah, higher costs blablabla, more development timeblablabla, every pro and contra-guy knows that. Thats no argument since its a fact and I actually saw an interview with one of the SD guys in wich he stated exactly this development time and higher costs thing. So, thats an actual fact, but why should this keep someone from wanting something.

Naysayers, are the pulled handbrake on every kind of progress. The good thing about them is, they are very easy to suprise since they have no imagination.

SD on the other hand are no naysayers. At first they wanted to develop " an ultra realistic shooter", but due to their open mind they listened to one guy from their creative team and ended up with Brink as we know it.

See good things can happen if one isn’t narrow minded but takes everything into account instead.

1: I never suggested you were. I suggested everyone stop making personal attacks.
2: If you feel anyone is raging feel free to report it for moderation. Simply trying to fight fire with fire is only going to result in a flamed thread.
3: Stop making accusations about other people. As you said “This forum is about a game” so keep your topics to the game. EVERYONE should stop making personal attacks against other people (that includes insinuating that someone needs a psychotherapist).

Stay on topic folks, leave the insults at the door. Thread hasn’t been locked “yet” because somehow amid the muck, we keep clambering back to the topic periodically. Thread’s on the Brink tho.

(StillBatusBrad) #113

Make the Medium female look like Jenna Jameson and the Light look like Natalie Portman!

No Heavy chicks, though…let’s keep things tasteful!:smiley:

(tokamak) #114

They just heard the developers explain it over and over again. On the forums and in interviews.

I suspect the only reason the thread isn’t locked is because the mods great tired of having to keep closing this spam.

Hahahahahaha

Thats one of my biggest gripes, even if they had the time, money, sales to warrant this as a serious topic right now I just dont get how they would figure out a way to make a Light, Medium, Heavy especially without it looking way off and unreal. Most chicks are not built anything like men at all. Hahahahaha and if they did have women like that in the game which also makes them on the ARK then I would being trying to get my ass off the Ark also, who wants to live on a some man made island with women that look and are built like men!

But this is just one issue, stop acting like they arent any issues and its all just ignorance or lack of effort by SD, this game isnt nearly big enough (sales wise) for such massive additions at the moment if ever. Maybe Brink 2, bring it up when that gets talked about down the road… If they did do it now it would more then likely end up some tacked on garbage, they need time and effort to build good models and all the custom options to go with it. Who here that would want to see females would want some tacked on crap thats just a copy of the male with feminine features and diff color outfits?

(Super-Pangolin) #116

HAH :tongue:

(its al bout security) #117

heh heh heavy chicks would look like rasputia from norbit or helga the ultra heavy lunch lady

(.FROST.) #118

I don’t really understand the problem with a “Heavy” woman. At first, the last time I’ve played Brink it wasn’t about “good looking” characters. Second, a “Heavy” girl/woman can also look good. If someone looks good or not depends mostly on everything else but the weight. And fat guys doesn’t look any better.

Someone like Cathrine Zeta Jones will allways look good, regardless if she’s skinny or has 50 Pound overweight.

And who said, that the “Heavy” fem has to be obese. Maybe its like skinny=light, normal=medium and !!!a little bit(as in 40 Pounds)!!! overweight=Heavy
