Perhaps another "Ask the Dev"?

(Darksider) #1

Ok, I’m for one like to know a few things and with that, is it possible to get “BadMan” to ask Splash Damage to do another “Ask the Dev” community thing again? I just would like to know ->

  1. What you guys think of the current situation with Brink overall internally and where you want to take it?

  2. PC stat site what’s the deal on that? Will it finally be available when the first DLC hits?

  3. Me, I love making fan-made machinimas/vids of my favorites games, with that will we ever see a demo recording make it’s way back?

  4. I know this has beaten down the horse to a nice meaty mince many times, but are we likely to see a SDK later down the road? <-- I think this is key in getting the players back into Brink and modders like myself to make something to bring some spark to ignite this game’s population again on the PC side.

Personally I’d love some more details on the stats site as well. While we have access to this feature on console it’s so buggy and broken I never know what I’ll see when I login. I’ve seen it working perfectly, missing avg xp, total xp, and recent matches, but still showing weapon data, and completely borked showing 0’s for everything. Would love to know if this is going to be fixed any time in the near future?

Also, I heard an outside company is doing the stats site not SD, so is the ball in their court? Are they even working on it? Because there appears to be no end to this site’s broken-ness. We are looking at weeks upon weeks of it being borked with little if any change.

Hopefully all this is straightened out by the time of the launch of the PC stats site because as I said you guys are going to find it useless if it goes up in its current state.

Edit: Feel free to check my stats page for an idea of what I’m talking about: Nephaerius’ Stats

The hilarious thing is that as I posted that link everything on the stats site went to working again. All my numbers and everything are back up. Feel free to check again at a later time or date as this appears to vary from day to day. As I said this is actually the first time it’s been working in like 2 weeks or more.

Bump, I like Brink but I would really like to know about an SDK.

A sdk would defenitly help brink, I personally get tired of playng some unbalanced maps over and over, the sdk would help in this field.

Demo, please. Thanks!

Clan System is what I am most interested in learning about. How it will be implemented. Because with the customization options, you could create very specific Clans and battle it out.

Would love more info on that as well. But of course the stats site is what all this hinges on.

(wolfnemesis75) #8

Definitely. Its a wait-and see approach until then. Lots of possibilities…:smiley:

stats site at the moment is having its own technical difficulties.

hope this all gets fixed

Oh god. That would suck for the poor dude. I mean he has to keep saying positive things about the game when everyone knows it’s bad.

NOTE: A few people on forums that think this game is good is no where near the fraction of the people who think this game sucks. In simple terms: Good games don’t have 800 people playing at peek.

peak? oh dear sir, i just wanted to let you know that the xbox alone sold almost 10x that of PC.

and maybe good games that are undiscovered do. it might take awhile, and what makes you think that the peak affects much it could be 800 people at 22:00 then at 22:01 they all leave simultaneously and at 22:02 a totally different crew of 799 joins (tad bit sarcastic here but many people play at many different times of day)
