Lean? : Othor Games

Container City displays the ability to lean.

Don't know which part, but I believe it's part 2.

I've searched, to no avail, for topics regarding leaning. I've noted it in a few videos and was wondering if it is included in the final copy of the game?

Brink looks amazing, I'd be happy if it was included or not. Just curious if a definitive yes or no has been issued.

I have been wondering this same thing for some time glad someone finally asked :goodjob:

Yea but its an old build, we are looking for something recent.

I think it may have been scrapped looked like they were having issues with it from the videos and like someone else said it kind of promotes camping which is something they are trying to prevent. On top of that if there is some sort of cover system people wont be as inclined to use the SMART system to get around and get away.

No definitive answer that I know of. The last time I saw someone use it was in the container city gameplays, a year ago.

There's been no demonstrations of it in the recent videos, but there's no word I've found on it disappearing either.

Actually there was leaning shown in a more recent interview-video, played on either Reactor or Aquarium.

Well, looking at Wraith's post above, he hasn't spotted it either.

Can you link and point out the timestamp for us to look at. I want to see it. (not saying you're wrong, just that if you've found something we missed, please share!)

Heh, I would've already if I knew which one it was. Perhaps I can dig it up in the afternoon. I don't think it was on Youtube, though, so I'd look at G4TV or GametrailersTV first.

Now that looks fun. You could really become effective with a snap lean like that. I think the dynamics of maps in terms of mobility will allow lights to sneak around campers. That is my hope at least =)

i think he was implying defensive players are campers... and having this lean feature would promote camping, which isnt a good thing.

Yes sir, that's is actually indeed what I was saying/

Yeah, because camping is a little different with a blaring alarm with red flashing lights announcing your position, hahaha.
Turrets are attention magnets, which easily balance out the bonus of using them, balance!

True but by leaning you on the wall with limited view anyone flanks and gets behind you will be dead.

I have think that I have watched all videos with footage of Brink, and all inverviews. Only --> 1 <-- did contained footage of leaning, but sadly I can't find it

Not to burst anyones bubble, but the gameplay in that video looks old. It actually looks like some of the container city gameplay footage. I could be wrong, but I'm not sure if we should view that as confirmation.

We'll find out in 13 days.,.
