Is the DLC already on the disc?

Thats because 10 years ago they usedto actually haveto finish the game before it was out as they couldnt just mash it together and patch it after… like most games do these days [although hardlyany Ino as bad a Brink, Birnk is ‘unpatchable’. Well we’ll see]

Wow, learn what a port is first

(Impulse_) #43

I know what a ported game is. Don’t try to act smart and prove me wrong. This game was 100% console ported to the PC. I think YOU need to learn what a port is or wake up and see the signs before you post again. Thanks :slight_smile:

Only beta test for brink was on PS3 … Goes to show the quality of console games.

(FrankieGodskin) #45

Thank you.

(Kurushi) #46

Sorry for proving you wrong. Trust me, you’d know if it was a console port instead of relying on things like lag bars lol

(Impulse_) #47

I guess the fact it runs like complete trash with mediocre graphics doesn’t tell the story either, huh? It’s clear as day it’s a port and you’re in denial if you think otherwise.

(Kurushi) #48

If it made to run on a 360 you’d think it’d run quite well on a PC wouldn’t you?

Runs fine here on ATI (!) If you have any problems I’ll help you in the tech support section. Are you on ATI? What card etc?

Colored ping bars should be enough to prove that it’s a console port.

(MrFoxer) #50

The downloadable content would not be very downloadable if it was on the disc now would it?

(H0RSE) #51

That may prove that it is poorly optimized, but does nothing to show that it is a port.

What are you talking about colored ping bars? Like red for poor connection, yellow for ok, green for good? How does this prove it’s a console port? It just seems like a common sense thing to have, regardless what platform it is on.

lulz. Since centuries PC gamers crave for exact data about their connection when it comes to multiplayer games. Reasons stretch from needing some excuse for poor play to being interested in why people are not taking hits like others do. Exact pings are the essential part for every multiplayer game on a PC, since they mostly involve exact control via mouse and keyboard. So every milisecond matters when it comes to optimization and skill development. Colored bars are ok for consoles since the perfomance of pads won’t ever reach the niveau of PC peripherals.

This should be an understatement, nothing to discuss about. :frowning:

Because you will only get 3 messages, bad, okay, good.

On pc we have the EXACT amount. Every multiplayer game on the pc has this (Unless it’s a console port).

(NigelDocker) #54

True, no PC game has a ping bar… unless it is a console port.
PC has dedicated servers, and the ping is allot better and closer apart than on consoles. If the consoles had the actual ping… you would be very suprized, you are playing with people in the 100’s and the ping bar is there because the range from the ping with people you play with is huge, so its either good medium or bad.

PC gamesd show the actual ping because

  1. Its got nothing to hide
  2. The range of the ping the peaople you will be playing with is small
  3. Any slight difference in ping can have a factor in who is advantaged much more so than consoles.
  4. If you play on the PC, its a standard to know the actual statistics and numbers, they shouldnt be hidden from you or estimates, but stats
  5. Its a PC game… what other actual PC game [not a port] do you you kinow that doesnt show the actual ping? there is no reason not to, unless its a port and its one of those things they didnt change.

I thought that it had colored bars AND the exact number amount. No one said what it was missing (exact numbers) just what it had (colored bars.)

I don’t need a history lesson on PC gaming features - been doing it for years.
