NEW! Update, Playing Options, and FREE DLC?!

Post » Tue May 03, 2011 3:25 am

Go ahead, go to there tweet feed on Twitter and read for yourself. They said an update is already live now (starting Saturday i'm going to guess).

They said it will address the lag issues and help more people will GREAT connections to connect to GREAT connections, and vice-versa (BADDY bads, with BADDY bads... XD)

Also, there is a new "Big Team" Match Option added. AND the first DLC that's going to come out for Brink (OMFG this was amazing news that we ARE getting some DLC), is going to be absolutely FREEEEEEEE!

NOTE: There is no patch/update required to DL, they did most of it on their end (read the Tweets) (FOR XBOX360 USERS NO DL, I DON'T KNOW HOW IT WENT FOR PC)

I just went to the Dashboard, and went back into Brink and the "Big Team" match option IS THERE. So, whomevers playing right now pleeeeassseee post here if you can and tell me how it's going for you? (The lag)

Oh yeah did I mention our first DLC is FREE?! :):)

Shame it's not on the PS3 until out network's back...

Ah well, I'm still enjoying myself. A lot.

And Hard mode makes the AI easier to cope with.

I am still having extremely aggrivating lag issues. I have been playing since release and it seems to be getting worse than when it was released. I hope they can figure something out to fix it. Brink is a great game when yer playing with friends and/or a good group but no matter how good a game is...it's not fun with evil lag. I am not gonna bad mouth the game or gripe about the developers but I have been playing 1st person shooters since Wolfenstein 3D was on shareware and this is some of the worst lag in an online game that I can remember in at least the last 5 years. Brink has a lot of potential but it won't reach that potential until the lag issues have been addressed so people can play the game and enjoy it for what it is. Here's hoping it gets fixed again & hopefully this time it will really fix the lag issues.

There's no point in free DLC if the game still suffers from lag, loading textures, and bad AI. I could do a fairly rude and crude metaphor on how I feel about it, but to be somewhat modest, I'll censor it. A piece of crap will still smell even if you put sprinkles on it. Fix the core gameplay, then add the free content.

Completely unnecessary, if you don't like the game don't come to the forums with the need to troll. Just get on with your day, and either play another game, or do something else that you enjoy... except trolling.
