Yea I agree.



And whats wrong with being targeted? If your getting the most kills/missions/exp etc.. Then doesn't that usually mean that the current game isn't much of a challenge? I would jump at the chance to have the current game made more interesting by having people personally target me. Id see how many I could make dead before they get me. That's just my opinion.

From my experience I hate that most of the time. I have a horrible connection so I usually get the short end of the stick. But the again in Brink with the amount of health and hopefully lack of lag then yes it should be fun.

It's mainly removing OHK with sniper rifles.

And headshots, and grenades.

I don't remember where I heard/read it, but it said that there would be no OHK in brink, at all. Also that there are no sniper rifles, just smgs with scopes...

Which svcks cause I like OHK headshots... If Headshots don't kill then whats the point of getting them..

the fact that you said "smgs with scopes" makes me think you need to go back and double check your info. The closest thing Brink has to snipers would be taking a short rifle (semi-auto high damage rifle) and putting a scope on it. Short rifles are able to be used by light bodied players.

The point of headshots is that you can kill someone in 3-4 shots instead of 13-14 to the chest. They still have the high damage you are looking for.

Really? I have heard about Short rifles, but i think it was only on forums like this one and I think you see them in the trailer. The videos always say Light builds use smgs (Of course that's just a generalization, they aren't gonna name all the weapons) So I just used smgs in my post cause it's what I have heard.

Still I'll miss headshots killing the enemy in Brink.

Headshots do more damage than body shots.

Still won't kill them In one hit. And that is what I will miss. It's nothing major, just something I will miss.

OHK headshots are just as stupid as quickscoping.

Wow you must hate alot of games since almost all FPS are OHK headshots.

In fact I don't like many FPSs.

I do like Rainbow Six Vegas 2, in which you go down quite fast in general and I like Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter, which makes you die even faster. Also I play MW2 every now and then, which has no OHK-headshots for most weapons.

? seems a little weird MW2 doesn't have OHK head-shots for most when Black ops does for most if not all.

I guess that's because the heads behind Infinity Wards did actually know what they were doing to some extend.

Every try operation flashpoint?

Well, this is Brink isn't it? If you wanted to play a gamemode like that then AC:BH is the game. Not Brink. Plus, this totally destroys the point of TEAMWORK. Sure having the entire enemy team come after you, but what about the well-deserving people that are more teamworthy on your team?


IMO, I do not like challenge. My biggest point-takers for my opinion. I like being able to be good, my team better, and not have 7 (how many?) people after me all at once while my team are trying to take the current objective.

If you are playing video games, you obviously like SOME challenge. Winning without a challenge carries no sense of victory. Lets play a game, every time your inhale, you win. YAY! we are all winners. :celebration:

And for some people, that is just fine. If everyone enjoyed a challenge, then they wouldn't have strategy guides, cheat codes, easy difficulty settings and hacks.
I agree with what Oscarmike says - a "concentrate on killing this player" objective, takes away from players utilizing classes and teamwork and working towars the current (core) objective.

This 'Assassination objective' essentially turns the game into a deathmatch variant for a short time (boring), and ultimatley just sounds like something a player thought up (probably one that is going to play Operative) because it is something he personally would enjoy, and not something that is benefical or something that even belongs in Brink, as a whole.

Well I can see your point. However a kill X person doesn't turn the whole game into a deathmatch.

As for beneficality I will use my sports anology from before. On any team there will normally be plenty of good players but only a few star players. If you can stop the best players from doing what they do best your weaken the enemy team and help your own.

This would never be a primary mission if it was in Brink (which I doubt it will)

Besides the highest scoring member is likely a medic or someone else stalwartly supporting their team. Keep them from buffing/healing/reviving/hacking or whatever else they are doing so effectively it will help your team.

But these are tactics and startegies, that any good team should be exercising regardless. You do not need an objective centered around it.

Touche. Remember though not all teams are good ones and the Brink devs are looking to bribe players into doing the right things. Just saying.

I have an idea for this objective thing. You should be able to equip special goggles that make the MVP on the other team have a gold "aura" thus making it easier to keep track of him and kill him.

Im pretty sure Operatives have a 'Homing beacon' ability they can purchase, where they can plant a beacon on specific players to trackl their movements.

Its true, but the only description i have seen of the ability didn't say if it only showed up on the minimap, or if it actually lit up the player in some way. Either way, would be quite useful for marking operatives or MVPs.

Nope. I think this and ARMA are too much of a military combat simulation already.


Hah, I think it would actually be fun if the beacon starts flashing after a while.
