Didn't make the Cut

Post » Thu Feb 10, 2011 1:46 pm

So just curious what little things ppl would of liked to see make the final cut?

I'm NOT trying to start an argument about why they should be in or not just curious

Me....

Titles and Emblems - lots of games (even none COD ones seems to have adapted this) i know its meaningless flare but theres something about having flashy things pop at me even when i die

Killcams - if you miss a spawn wave at least you can have something to look at, and its the easiest way to alleviate ppl crying over BS kills (also if you can see through the red while watching them you might learn some valuable lessons)

Personal Stats - once again not trying to start an arguement

VOIP with friends only - ..............oh wait Brink is the first game ive heard of doing this which makes Brink Awesome X 19, no more hearing underdeveloped voice boxes call everyone the N word because their parents aren't home yet, i hate having to stop the gaming to mute ppl

Challenges - i know their is a challenge mode but once again having flashy things pop at me well just makes me feel good

In-Game Clan List - mostly for consoles, kinda annoying how clan tags in console games basicly mean nothing, MAG had an okay system

Dedicated servers - again for consoles, like in Warhawk (which i guess is more Host dedicated)

Killstreaks - ....................................................................just kidding

Healstreaks - never heard of them before

Again not meant to cause a fight just curious what other extra not really gameplay related little stuff ppl like from other games, I haven't played Brink so i have no clue if any of this stuff would work or not.

As it is i think Brink is going to be an Awesome game with a nice mix of gameplay and i cant wait to shoot you all while you're on fire!!!

I would def like some sort of rank emblem just so you can tell who long a certain player has been playing , so you know if your about to get you butt whooped or not.

I would really like to see some clan support like Killzone 2 had. Not enough games have actual clan support. Sure they have little tags you can put next to your name but that just makes those little kids playing think they are some bada** because they have some tag infront there name. I would like to see a clan challenge system, tournaments, clan leaderboard maybe even an actual clan deploy feature what que'd clans against one another.

I think watching a teammate play is a better way to waste time during respawns, and the kill cams are the only reason people call BS in the first place, otherwise you have no clue.

Chicks on the Ark, a leadership based class, prone, and some extra weapons/attachments to choose from.

Agreed would be nice to see whats happening through a teammates eyes especially in those situations where everyone is dead except one person trying to fend of the other team until you guys get back.

i wouldnt want kill cams, i hate kill cams, they're massively unrealistic and destroys strategy in that you can be flanking for example and kill one lone straggler and now he can tell the whole team where you are, poof all that work to get where you are gone cuz of a crappy kill cam.

and for emblems, dont need them either, you can tell how long/how good a player is by there level and the weapons/clothing they have

I hope there is nothing unlocked by stats..Just levels.. Unlocking by stats encourages boosting and that will take away from the team. I used to hate getting multiple "Wanna do headshots?" or "Wanna boost for emblems?" messages while playing CoD back in the day.

A proper theatre/cinema/replay mode.
That's all.




Also killcams do not work in BRINK, because either you are alive or incapacitated. There is no time where you would be dead (except if you've blown yourself up as an Operative, maybe).

Now that you mention it ...

I believe it jumps into 3rd-person teamview then, though.
A killcam still wouldn't make much sense, because you can look at the person finishing you of, while you're down.

A leadership based class would be pretty awesome! Abilities could be more stable weapon fire, faster objective completion, faster ability use (like when an engineer sets up a turret or a medic helps a fallen teammate), maybe highlighting opponents on teammates screens like in BC:BF2. A leadership based class would be awesome.

Brink addressed the female issue already, but I understand missing it. My gf is a female gamer and being able to create a female character sometimes makes or breaks her decision on buying a game if she is 50/50 on it.

I would also like to see new attachments for guns aside from the usual - akimbo, silencer, varying scopes/lenses, launchers. Maybe an attachment like a grappling hook could be useful given the different heights showcased in the different maps. Weight could be a factor there too - skinny players are carried faster by the grappling hooks while heavy characters take longer to hoist.

Teamview Killcam is fine with me, rather it be 1st person, kinda feels like your immersed in another person's gameplay like the old spectator modes,

also 3rd person teamview makes it to easy for ppl to call out enemies to their teammates, which might sound good but svcks if you spent all the time to sneak up behind someone only to have a teammate who died across the map call you out to him

but mainly when i die itd be nice to have an option to see at least something other than a timer and map

What about an objective killcam that shows you what your team needs at the moment and where that need is to help refocus players who might be going for kills instead of teamwork?

I believe they're talking about a friendly kill cam, not the stupid one that tells ppl where you are if your being sneaky.

As for the friends only VOIP, Brink is not the first game to have this option..... Medal Of Honor 2010 has this option... Unfortunately this was one of the few things this game got right.

Kinda like the idea of a leadership class, very hard to decide on what sort of ability's it should have though. Hrmmm need to think.

I think that would be cool if they added Playercards like in Black Ops, but with Brink stuff ofc.
