Brink Demo ideas

Post » Mon Nov 23, 2009 8:53 am

I know that there is a topic about hoping for a demo but I'm just giving some ideas of what it might have.

1. you can only make one character for either side

2. you will have limited customization (both cloths and guns)

3. you can only play the Container City campain (for all modes)

4. you can only level up to like 3 or something

What are your ideas?

5. Free run mode with just your pistol and a light body character.
6. Ability tree previewer (as Wraith suggested)
7. Deathmatch vs. bots, with little to no customization

That sums up what I was thinking... though your 1 character can switch sides.

and no customization maybe... preset archtypes only + color schemes.

And I don't know what you mean by "Container City Campaign" but that sounds like a bit much... I would expect only 1-2 missions.

and level 3 sounds about right as a cap.

Just a more polished version of what they showed at E3 or Pax.

Perhaps have 2 levels, the first being the airport for a totorial about smart like they did to present it. Then it does the option of continuing on single player or multi and all that jazz they soaid they were going to do.

That would then be the container city level and you play from there.

5. Free run mode with just your pistol and a light body character.

This would be a pretty fun demo also maybe just one level vs bots that would probably be the most fun option.... if the AI is good.

5. Have fun doing a smart preveiw with a heavy

7. Don't go around assumig things, he was prob only meaning tdm for the demo, tdm is an easy game to make save objective maps for the real release.

The brink demo should have archetypes only with only medium being availible, and one mission available that takes around 30 min
I'm sure if they wAnted brink could release this^ right now. I just want some more brink I can play I'm not lookin for an indepth demo I'm lookin for one with an early release

The topic is about what you'd like to see as DEMO.
I know it's SMART and I know that it's objective based. Those are like the basics of this entire game.

if i remember correctly the developer said there was not going to be a team deathmatch. does mean anything for it being in the demo? im not sure but do think you should be able to choose a character thats light, medium or heavy and each come with there own look and weapons so its not restricting too much but just enough for us to want more once we play it.

The demonstrations are in the videos. A long time ago game demos could just be the cinematics or clips instead of something interactive. A character creator would be great, especially if it let you virtually level up and plan skill allocations. Realistically any gameplay would only be for the actual game. Games hardly get "true demos" anymore, especially before they're released.

You might be giving to much. If people play the demo as a light or heavy and don't like them they never will when the real game comes out.

Mediums are the best for a demo since they are them middle grounds of the two.

I agree. Everyone starts the game as a Medium. The demo should show medium so everyone will be real familar with it. Then when the game comes out you can choose to be faster or stronger.

The last part of this statement is wrong. When the full game comes out you have to unlock heavy and light.

No that makes no sense at all. :nope:

If someone wants to figure out what bodytype bests suits their playstyle, they should be able to choose from all three body types from the beginning.

In the videos they've claimed that the main features are the first things unlocked. I'd imagine that unlocking light and heavy would be possible within an hour or two. They've stated that more powerful unlocks come sooner so more people have it. It makes sense for balancing at least. As you play longer you're given varieties of playing style rather than clearly superior upgrades.

Well they can figure that out in the game. For the demo if they are medium they will have access to light and medium weapons. With that a person would have enough of an idea if they want to move quickly about or be a heavy hitter.

These are my ideas: I would like to talk about a demo for ps3/ xbox360.... im asking for this because im love the game i find its amazing but i have friends that say it svck.But i no it realy doesnt so i want u guys to try to put out a demo so my friends can try it out like battlefield bad company 2 , they said that game was stupid and what not but when they tryed it on the demo the found it an amazing game.

If you could take this into consideration to do this you should but it out some time like november 1 2010 put like the map ship yard or somthing that showed on all the vidoes on youtube and make a demo that when u go on it thats the only map u can play so they can see only a bit of the game, then make the max level like three for the demo so u can only get the stuff for lvl 3 and lower so they dont see what the hole games about and 1 week before for the game comes out you shut the demo down so people playing the demo have to go out and buy the game :P..... `so i realy hope you will do this because im shure ur going to get a few thousand more people playing the game becuase lots of people dont even no of thiis game yet..... please answer me back with ur thoughts


hope some one will take this into concideration!:P

Or a demo could work against them.... people when the play the demo they expect the entire game to be like that and if they don't like the demo they will never want to buy it thinking "Hey the demo svcked the full version can't be any better" So the idea of a demo is a double edged sword.

You need to get better friends, jk.
And I would like to see a cross platform beta, i dislike all these new contracts restricting demos to xbox, ps3, or pc even ones i own.

That's comparable to judging a book by its cover.

A game Demo is more like the descriptive paragraph the author gives about their book to get more readers interested in it.

I know that there is a topic about hoping for a demo but I'm just giving some ideas of what it might have.

1. you can only make one character for either side

2. you will have limited customization (both cloths and guns)

3. you can only play the Container City campain (for all modes)

4. you can only level up to like 3 or something



1. One character for either side sounds good

2. Just to give players a taste, and include the light, medium and heavy body types

3. This Mission from the Media section on the main Brink website and an equivalent for Resistance.

4. Lv. 3 sounds good to allow players to preview some of the abilities and unlocks.
