Huh I only play competitive. Still haven’t seen it i’ll look harder.

Can anyone confirm its actually on the Xbox? And not another PC only thing?

PC USERS:

Your version of the game is far superior in every way to the xbox version. You have to understand that. Our matches are often very laggy, although recently I have had more luck finding human players and lag free matches. So its getting better.

But we still suffer from lag, and without lobbies the match making is a nightmare especially when you have buddies with you.

I completely agree with this topic poster… this game is stupid, the developers must be completely dumb or never even played/tested it. I just hate it.

Microsoft… when people learn that peer to peer hosts are things of the past?

Neither the less… consoles when produced at 1st there was no intention for internet connection and PCs always had the advantage to upgrade the system proprieties in order to be ready for new technology / software, consoles never had and never will be mod able. They (corps) do not want mod able consoles so they can force us to buy new console that is ready for the future (for the next 5 years).

XBOX360 community I seriously advise you to create a petition for dedicated servers and make a stand about this.

It’s amazing how some publishers try to take also away from the players such features as dedicated servers (COD/treyarch)

EDIT: Taking back that statement. Got the answer I hoped for.

You make it sound like that is something special. :wink:

[QUOTE=Bakercompany;312189]Apparently as I just received a warning from Badman himself, Xbox users should shut up with their demands and just deal with whatever we’re handed

So making a thread about Dedicated Servers will most likely get you banned. Just a heads up, same with asking about lobbies.

So looks like their answer is already no.[/QUOTE]

Yep a moderator is already repeatedly deleting my thread.

i spent £40 on the game so I have a right to complain, if this post gets deleted again by a moderator I will formally complain. I renamed the title because I bet the mods have been ordered to delete any complaining threads because all i see allowed is ‘wow these 8 maps are awesome to repeatedly do the same thing on’ which isnt very balanced…

The game itself: 8 Multiplayer maps with everything lazily tacked on. That is all this game is. And 1 game mode? Seriously? All I can do is ‘lol’.

Bots: The team bots are pathetic, yet the enemy AI hordes the objectives and kill you straight away. Seriously did the developers just want to make this game annoying? Why not adjust the difficulty depending on the team like borderlands? Because its lazily made…

Story: I have followed none of the story as you only see the cutscenes during game time so unless you skip them you will most likely lose or get a bad start (Another ‘lol’) Play solo to see the story? Nah!!!

S.M.A.R.T: Slowly milling around random terrain. It seems to NEVER know where I want to go contrary to the developers promises.

The only good thing about this game was the genius of the advertisers/hype…

Rubbish game, enough said… Flame all you want, denial and not wanting to admit you wasted £40 is a bitch huh.


(theorigin) #27

Noone forced you to play on XBOX360 … you are absolutly free to use an PC also.


(Bakercompany) #28

Thats the dumbest thing i’ve heard on all these threads.

You do know how much it costs to build a PC that can play Brink right?

Lets not even get into the cost difference between being a PC gamer and an Xbox Gamer. This is why I got out of PC games, upgrading my PC to constantly play the new games became too expensive. Just one component of my gaming PC costs twice as much as my entire xbox setup.

Thats a point you can’t argue.

For the record. I actually received a different response from Badman that told me everything I needed to know which was just an acknowledgement.

He has renewed my faith 10 fold in Splash Damage.

Aww :frowning: so cute, you sound like my little sister when she’s sad

Next time try it before you buy it? Or I dont know… Look at the forums before you preorder like a sheep? I tried to stay calm and I’ll probably get an infraction for this, but heck, /care as its my hobby anyway!

We know for ages that there are 8 maps and only one game mod, we know for ages that the smart would be hard to handle, I dont see why the bots are a problem, try harder!

The ONLY thing I can agree with you is that a game on release shouldnt lag like hell and be playable, and even here you can look at other games and it was almost the same scenario, BFBC2 on PC first week / month was the roflcopter of the decade for me, as I dont buy that much games I never saw the developers went that much down the hill when it comes to release a fooking working product.

Now instead of raging like the probable spoiled child you are, use the already open thread about your criticism and list them there, then wait as Splashdamage guyz are working on the different problems to get them sorted as quick as possible, they are not Dice and know how to fix a bad code in less than a month, so be patient, do you rather them to waste their time here answering the same complaints over and over? or do you expect them to work on the actual problems and release a patch as quick as possible? Exressing your concern is one thing, coming here to insult the developers with some rubbish complaints is another.

Dont get bashed by the door on your way out, kthxbye

EDIT : oh and for you out there who think I’m a brink Fanboi please look at my post history… And no I didnt preorder and yes I’m waiting for the game to be stabilised in order to buy it, as anyone with common sense would do anyway (well if I couldntt count on you to try it and bitch about it first, I would never have a working product tho, so you see, your monies were well used!).

My favorite part is when they don’t tell you what they think is stupid about the game.

Yup, it’s becoming pretty apparent (and tbh, refreshing seeing the trend lately to dumb done a PC version of a game in favor of console release, but console players shoudln’t have to suffer either)

Tbh, there’s lag on PC version too, and I wonder if it is not linked to the presence of bots on the server.


(Herandar) #33

Sorry Apples, but no infraction for you*. I thought your response was logical and substantitive. It is amazing how quickly people forget the rough launches of other recent FPS games.

*-From me anyway.

wow, just wow

some people actually amaze me

Actually it was Infinity Ward and Activision who started this crap. Treyarch has maintained dedicated servers and brought back features (lean) and supports the games pretty well overall.
But it is probably all Microsoft’s fault if you dig deeper.


(silicon_ghost) #36

Yeah, it is an MP game that is ****ING BROKEN. The networking code was written by a gaggle of chimps high on crack. I’d love to play MP on the PC. Hey! Jackasses at SD, how about you fix this piece of **** so us paying customers don’t feel like we bent over and took one up the ass?


(silicon_ghost) #37

The guy calling the rest of us retards who doesn’t have a clue?

Umm, have you noticed there is NO DEMO? Exactly how should I “try before buy”? Go download it illegally from a warez site? Actually the pirates got the last laugh. They got to try it and see that it was a piece of **** and aren’t out any money.


(eMwegA) #38

Stupid thing about Brink is, that its unplayable for me at current state. Why do they put you in jail for robbery while these greedy game devs are still running around.

To me its proven that this game got released to make pure money. Pissing off every ATI user. Cant tell me that noone noticed that its unplayable on most ATI Cards. But as a greedy guy you have to sell this piece of unplayable junk. Ive paid 40 euros for a game I can beg at the forums to get patched so i can at least try it out… Tried the ati hotfixes. Nothing helps. Have to decide between absolutely unplayable and unplayable right now. Wish i could get my money back…


(H3LLS1) #39

i read the reviews of this game, saw some game footage, and decided to try the game anyway. so far…i’m enjoying the game.

but the people talking about the start up lag crack me up. i was there forday one for rainbow 6, RB6 2, MW2, Blkops, L4D, and L4D2. i’m sure many of yall were there too for some of those. they ALL had start up lag. black ops was friggin HORRIBLE (like the game, come to find out) and it cleaned up. as did they all.


(eMwegA) #40

im not talking about starting bugs. im talking about buying a unfinished game. cant tell me that they had no ATI computer standing in their office to check out: “oh yes runs like **** on ati cards, but never mind my eyes already turned into $$”

And btw saying that other games had bad launches too is a very very weak argument…
