[QUOTE=Hansi;288715]“Die Zweite, etwas leichtere Waffe ist zu gebrauchen und auch zwingend notwendig.”

It is the opposite. The sentence means:

“The second weapon is useful and absolutely necessary.”[/QUOTE]

Oh awesome hahah. That makes way more sense. Thanks!

The maps reminded me a lot of Enemy Territory (a few times I had the thought "wow, goldrush? oasis? awesome!). [/QUOTE]

awsome! indeed.

hehe. yea. first thing you read on his homepage for de_dust is that he stole the design from very early shots from tf2 (long before the actual tf2 we know today). just find this very funny. :slight_smile:

The PR is huge for this game. My friend in NYC says he’s seen it on the top of taxis, in a subway situation, and ALL OVER the side of both a brooklyn and bronx bus.
Homefronts pr was awful.

I actually have found BRINKs hype and support is HUGE, ESPECIALLY considering brink is a new IP and if you look at gamers in 2011 overall none of them know about ET or ETQW.

the community is at the very bottom of my list of worries for BRINK.
In fact, its not even on the list of worries for BRINK.
In fact, I don’t even have a list of worries for BRINK.

A few thousand players is a lot if you’re talking about the hardcore competitive crowd.

THIS! So true.

I don’t know how much impact we have here in the forums but I try and do my part and spread the word on twitter and facebook to keep my less informed friends updated on what has been coming out about the game.

A lot of people are just too busy sometimes to keep up with all the new info and they sometimes forget about the game. Remember that most likely A LOT OF NEW Players won’t have played any previous SD games and to them BRINK is new territory from a developer they might not now much about.

TL;DR SPREAD THE WORD, KTHX

Thanks for the write up clickboom :wink:

I know myself and Matthias are still trying to convince a friend to get the game. But the kid wont listen. Said that Brink doesn’t seem to appeal to him. But he also is on his 8th or 9th prestige on Blops.

I shall get through to him eventually though, with violence.

Yeah, im sure most of us here have been watching the game forever, but its fascinating how the people posting on its forums etc. multiplies by like 10 around 14 days before launch.

I hear kids talking about the game in the halls between class so thats pretty win too

Overall a very positive review.

Wonder why they didnt get to play the PC version.

I bet this Frankfurt thing was sort of event. Consoles are supposedly easier to use for those sorts of things.

The link to the original text is wrong. This is the right one:

http://www.esl.eu/de/brink/forum/2612/24262/922029/?lastvisit=1304590620

Some interesting aditional facts follow in the same thread:

“was noch kurzfristig hinzuzufügen ist:
es wird linux ded. serverfiles geben und das eher langsame Spielgefühl auf der xbox unterliegt nicht nur dem gewöhnungsbedürftigen Controler sondern auch der relative pc- fremden kleinen FOV von 75, welche in der PC-Version wieder umstellbar sein wird.”

roghly translated:

there will be linux did. serverfiles and the slow gamefeeling on the xbox is not just a result of the unfamiliar controller but of the, compared to PC, smaller FOV of 75, which can be changed on PC.

imho 2 happymakers!

Edit: The first person spectator mode will work only on PC, consoles have to live with 3rd person spectating.
