News on update (FROM SMOOTH)


(Terminator514) #1

I inquired to Smooth (Splash Damage employee) whether we would be getting the updates along with the DLC, his reply is as follows:

“We will be having updates alongside the DLC on all platforms, yes.”

Do I have a link? No, this was a private message. I thought everyone would like to know this, considering this is probably one of the reasons the DLC’s release date is not set in stone.

Cool. Thanks for the update, Terminator.

No problem man, I just hope we can keep a solid community. Maybe if they did a crazy sale like Valve does with TF2 all the time, right now it’s free, but maybe they could lower Brink to $20 to draw in new players.

more people are getting Brink. it has been very noticeable on xbox, I can’t speak for other platforms. but nearly every match is 8v8 now. I also think people understand how to stick around in matches because they will fill up if there is room in no time. at least the community will become more and more people who like Brink for what it is, not what it could’ve, should’ve, or may have been. ya know?

The PS3 community has been strong for a while now, since our version had the least issues of the three. I literally have to make a private solo session to play alone if I want a non-PvP game, and every game has at least 5-8 guys on a team in standard and big teams.

On topic: Thanks for the info. I knew it was probably a good idea to look for more relevant info here then on the other forums. Might not be “official” official, but it’s a lot more then what I see elsewhere.

Not that it probably matters as it seems common sense information but perhaps keeping this sort of information to yourself would be a little considerate to the person you’re having a private conversation with.

/agree
But like said, nothing new here


(Crytiqal) #8

Didn’t we already know they were doing the weapon balance alongside the DLC? This could be the “updates”.


(Mustang) #9

Huh?
What has waiting for Sony/Microsoft to approve the DLC got to do with PC getting their weapon balance patch?

That is certainly good news that its going strong on PS3. You guys rock! At some point we all have to figure out how to tip the scale in Security’s favor. Or maybe not. :cool:

i think most people already were saying this. i mean that was the general consensus.

but now that you proved it…

just to say the least i think im in love with you :tongue:


(Terminator514) #13

Common sense information? Updates and DLC do not go hand-in-hand unless the update is specifically for the DLC. To say it’s common sense is a blatant example of your ignorance.

If the information was sensitive enough not to go public he would have not shared it with me as I am part of the public and not part of the company.
