Your favorite Brink moment so far...


(Zekariah) #1

Mine was coming up against SinDonor and a few others on Labs. I joined late and I was on defense with the last objective running (taking the sample to the sub).

13 minutes left in the game. The most intense 12 minutes and 34 seconds I’ve had in Brink so far! My teamamtes weren’t too organized, but knew what was at stake so we held the fort for that amount of time.

But Sin came in with his juiced up Heavy and his Gotlung and mowed most of us down. He was taken out but with 26 secs left the damage was done and the lights trailing behind him pushed and made it for their win.

I may have lost, but that was the most fun I’ve had losing!

I was in a 2v5. Trying to complete the objectives was hopeless, so I just disguised and hung out with the other team for the entire game.

Really close Container City matches are the best though. Its the only map I know where two opposing teams often complete just minutes apart. Container City tends to be the best map for setting times with the people I play with.

Easily my best moment: was playing with the usual xbox people and DarkSolarcrest got down right in the enemy spawn. Being stupid, I speed rush their spawn headstrong ready to revive him. So I toss a grenade pull out my bulpdaun. Kill 2 people with the nade, kill 2 people with the bulp then my clip runs out and I have 2 heavies and a light staring at me. I pull out my kalt and finish them off in about 2 seconds. Oh and then I revive solarcrest.

My favorite moment so far just happened last night. I was playing Operative on Refuel as Resistance, and trying to breach the backside of the plane (hack turrets, spot mines, etc.) when I get spotted by thesuzukimethod, who then begins chase.

I run back in retreat, in the direction of the garage door, and between the tanker truck and the wall. I trip a pyro mine and take a little damage, and suzuki incaps me while in pursuit. I fall down incap only about 2-3m from the pyro mine. Problem for suzuki is, he ran through that pyro mine as well, so he can’t go back from whence he came. Being that I’m incap so close to the mine, and he knows I have Cortex Bomb, I watch him twisting around as he’s trying to decide if he should risk running back through the mine (BBQ!), or risk running through me (and getting blown up!).

The re-spawn timer is getting close to 0, so I decide to just use Cortex Bomb and hope its radius and damage are enough to take him out. Just my luck, as my Cortex Bomb is just about to go off, he dances himself in my direction. Boom!

The moment lasted about 2-3 seconds, but they were priceless.

I haven’t decided yet, if I like playing with thesuzukimethod (he’s a hell of a teammate) more, or against him (he’s a hell of an adversary). :slight_smile:

Woot! Woot! I remember that game. Lots of fun. I think I had Sleepy and Leming on my team and a bunch of semi-clueless newbs.

I’ve had so many great moments so far, I’m starting to lose track. Lots of fun times holding D points. Also, showing up in a game at CC where the Sec was already getting spawn-camped with only 2-3 mins left, and it was a 7vs8 once I showed up. None of my friends were on, just randoms. I switched to Assault and was able to push through and plant the charge with 10 secs left, won that Obj in OT. Then, the tank got stuck near their spawn and they were entrenched in with a couple of turrets. So…

Oh wait, I already told this story a while ago:

http://www.splashdamage.com/forums/showthread.php/29537-Cool-story-bro!-From-tonight.-Haters-need-not-apply.-Nothing-to-see-here.

That was a fun solo story, but most of my games playing with friends are a lot better.

I did enjoy the one game recently where I showed up late and had to play against all of my RiF buds. Me and the randoms were defending the safe on Terminal and my Mossington made mince meat out of all the Engies on their team. I think it’s the only time I’ve ever killed Neph more than once in a match.

My best moment was probably seeing the Platinum trophy go ‘ping!’.

Job done.

(TruGamer97) #8

I guess ill have to say when I was playing as as light and I ran out of ammo on both my guns so I knocked people on the ground and slide into them and then ran away and I was able to keep doing that for quite a long time I thought it was pretty fun :wink:

My favourite Brink-related moment was the anticipation before I first started it.


(tokamak) #14

Aye the years on this forum before the release date were truly fun.

The one and only good moment in Brink’s history for me was when they announced an official Brink tournament for Quakecon 2011.
Literally EVERY SINGLE other aspect of Brink has been a massive disappointment.

Have you ever stood at the top of the staircase on Security tower, with a gatlung minigun?

Let me tell you, THAT is fun. Even better when my dad is watching while drinking some, which his laughs can only make the epic moment more epic.
