Patch Coming Monday for PC


(PhYrE) #41

If your cars engine won’t work, will you take your car to the company which manufactured it or the the company which manufactured the engine? The whole game is bugged, amd can throw bugfixes at us as long as they want, it won’t fix the game!!

Based on?

The recommended requirement (you know the official one, not based on randumb expectations) asks for an I5, you have a very older CPU.


(AnthonyDa) #43

Don’t try comparing cars & PC, it fails almost everytime, just like here.

These are no asumptions, these are facts. Friends of mine play the game with no problems with much weaker cpu’s.

btw: there is an edit button…

Maybe ruskor game runs fine too, just an idea…

It’s a console port, so it’s mostly a cpu whore game too.

So you tell me that BFBC2 runs smoothly on my PC with 32 players and destructable world while brink looks “average” and is limiting my cpu?! What should cause that high cpu demand (except bad programming)? No way… Most FPS are limited by gpu and not cpu and i dont see anything obvious that would justify a high cpu demand in brink.
and lol for the “official recommendation” its not “minimum requirement”… btw also quadcore users have 100% on all cores so i dont think its my cpu…

Edit: “Maybe ruskor game runs fine too, just an idea…” Think he complains because it doesnt run great…


(MaxiM) #48

I don’t think this game is gonna update today. At least not EU today.

Yea it runs fine. But it’s not always on 100% usage sometimes i start the game BAM 100% and then 1-2 hours later 50-60%. Next day the same. So it’s kinda strange.


(Thatgingerkid) #50

[QUOTE=eMwegA;321036]A fast Dualcore will not be the bottleneck for a game like brink. even bfbc2 runs smoother than brink on my dualcore and bc2 is considered as a very cpu demanding game. In brink i see no feature that would justify a higher cpu demand than you got in bfbc2 (small maps, fewer players, no physic engine etc.) Im running an e8400 @3ghz and a HD 5870 and the cpu doesnt slow games down at all. cpu demand is often overrated imho. (Same thing with PSUs. What a HD 4850? Need at LEAST 1000W PSU :tongue:)

Looking forward to the patch to finally play brink…[/QUOTE]
I run the exact same CPU as you but have a GTX460 and i too have noticed no ill effects on game play in any game. I hardly, if ever, get a slow down. And if I do its because I’m multi-tasking which a dual core isn’t too stellar at.
Running the game solo though, whether BC2, Mass Effect 2 or Brink, i have no problems AT ALL.
And I also hope the patch fixes the Nvidia 4xx/5xx OpenGL crash.


(MaxiM) #51

Guess I was wrong. The patch is now live. Finished downloading at 23:59, so technically just in time :wink:


(Emke) #52

Is it just me or is the Patch rly 1,6gb big oO


(neks) #53

it’s just you. you probably renamed a folder or something like that which would be why the game is DLing more than just the patch


(Emke) #54

I know what it could be… I play the game in Englisch but my Steam is in German (because I live in Austria). So its surely downloading now the german files also -.-


(neks) #55

did you delete the german-specific files?


(Emke) #56

Never had one. I will let it download now and change the language later back to eng.


(Progz) #57

Wow this game officially sucks. My last nerves were with this update, i really wanted this game to work. If it wasn’t fixed now, its never gunna be. This game is broken for good. **** it im sick of waiting and ****.

This “big update” was the biggest let down ever, actually it wasnt… the game was.


(MaxiM) #58

The patch is roughly 35MB or so. Played offline a bit and I must say it changed the performance quite a bit. Still no cigar, but closer.


(Ceej) #59

Yeah no change in FPS with AO on. When the game launched it was fine. Still have corrupted text and now some graphical weirdnesses are showing up.


(MysticoN) #60

This patch did not do anything for me. Still laggy as hell and random freezes. Feel like its no point to trick my self by thinking im going to be able to play this game in the near future. So im going to take a break from this game/forum. Tobad, i realy looked forward to this game.

ATI and Duel core here.
