Ideas for Brink trailers? : Othor Games

» Fri Jul 09, 2010 4:16 am

I am really excited for Brink, it has everything I have been wanting in a shooter for a while now.
-Customization
-Cartoon art style
-Class balance
-PARQUOR!
-And a decent story

What I am disseminated in is the lack of hype going into it. Right now it is a fairly obscure game, and only one of my friends has heard of it(from someone other than me). So what I am trying to say is, if you had any control over generating publicity for the game what would you do, what would you want in the trailers?

I would personally like to see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j052-ROwPFM because I think it goes really well with the story of the game?

Everything I would put in a trailer has already been used. I'm in the same position as you though.....not a lot of my friends know about BRINK.

I'm afraid I'm with RayAntG here. Basicly the BRINK render trailer shows everything I'd like to see in a BRINK trailer. (And some stuff I wouldn't want to see, e.g. the sniper and the fooking big knives.)

Also it's Parkour, not Parquor.

I'd make a trailer similar to current one but a bit different. Would have voice acting, a squad of security walking into a place, then get ambushed by resistance. They fight using SMART, different body types, classes, weapons, and customization to showcase all that. They all die except one security and one resistance member. They are both injured and have a stand off, and they start 1v1ing for a show using all type of SMART stuff and epic battle overall, and both take out a form of melee/secondary and aimed up close at other's face, then they both for example put their fingers on the trigger and then scene cuts to Brink or w/e like in the trailer atm before guy shoots resistance guy in face with pistol, and after the Brink logo and such is displayed, camera points at sky and you hear the sound of 2 men shooting each other with birds flying across. That's all I can think of off top of head.

A trailer featuring a Resistance Light running from the Security (or vice versa), as he free runs around a new map.

Thats basically what i want to see.

I think H0RSE already nailed it with his ideas from this thread - http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1113854-brink-commercials/page__view__findpost__p__16344799

It will show The Security and The Resistance sitting down and drinking tea with each other in the middle of the shipyard, while a narrator with an English gentleman voice talks about the game. It will then show various short clips of gameplay, while switching back to the tea party after every clip, showing Resistance and Securty members displaying impressive displays of etiquette. Then towards the end, the narrator will say some catch phrase, someone will flip over the table at the tea party, and all hell breaks loose, guns a blazin.

When the commercial opens and shows the tea party, this is the music that would play in the background as the narrator speaks http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSE15tLBdso

Oh, and when all hell breaks loose, it will begin to show more gameplay clips back to back, much more visceral and intense. The music will build and the clips will gradually begin to switch between clips faster and faster, until it is eventually like 1 clip per frame. Then the music ends on a dramatic note and resonates out as the screen goes black. Then the Brink logo fades in, followed by the release date.

That is a pretty awesome idea.

Put a bunch of CoD gameplay and call it CoD 8: Brink.
BAM Hype problem done.

Then when all the kids buy the game and realize it isn't CoD, SD will have enough money to do whatever the hell they want.
