I have removed a few posts that were flames or rude or replies to flames. Please refrain from attacking one another and just discuss the game or problems or whatever but do treat one another with respect. No name calling, no personal attacks, no bashing any other site (cross site trolling). Doing so will result in warnings and temporary suspensions of your accounts.

Thanks for keeping our forum a pleasant place for all to share without fear of flames and insults.

How about your company responds to any of the customers complaining about your game and maybe ill stop? Look at your forums, they are a mess. Not all complainers, its people who have problems with their game and not giving any updates since launch is pretty ridiculous seeing how this overhyped game got under a 70 and left many people disapointed.

Everyone here can defend the graphics are fine but there is a CLEAR bug in the game that ALMOST EVERYBODY but the people in this post are complaining about.

Tech Forums.....Tech Forums....Tech Forums....Tech Forums.... You seem to be getting a lot of your information there. Go complain there and leave us to play our game with the great graphics that we see!!!

Believe it or not me and all the other people on the tech forums own the game also.

Thanks Summer. I apologize for calling into question his mental integrity (my one and only boo boo!). It just gets under my skin when people start throwing around garbage about this great game, especially comparing it to original Xbox graphics.

No excuses, use the report button. And, remember that not everyone must agree. Being different people, some of us can disagree with one another but agree or disagree....let's do so with respect. Thanks....I hope I don't have to revisit this in this thread again.

Now, back to the topic at hand. :thumbsup:

Don't worry. We'll behave. I'll just put on my flame retardant suit. :flamethrower:

Summer is a moderator. She just oversee's the forums. And not everyone is having graphics problems. The makers of the game have responded to our issues. They have stated that they are urgently trying to fix the problems we are having.

Here is what they had to say. http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1188620-an-update-on-brink/

The game has been out for less than a week!!!! Give it time and let them work on stuff. They're getting the stats page up and probably working on an update for all THREE systems (PC, PS3, 360).

And the only reason the game got under a 70 is because of a few statistical outliers like Joystiq and 1UP.

So where is this Xbox forums?

Well, that's a very good question. Apparently MS just released their new client for the forums. In my opinion, it's a disaster right now and there are NO game specific forums at the moment, only General Discussion. Also, all old posts ( from the old forums) are going to be deleted in less than a month and are just archived currently.

Great link!! That is so true.

Thank you. I felt it was a completely accurate acronym. LoL

Yeah, I'm pretty sure they are upgrading them at the moment.

To be honest though, there are a LOT of haters and trolls hanging out around there. LoL I try to ignore them as much as possible.

That's exactly why I came to this forum. I got tired of sifting through all the hate threads and trolls over there and wanted to read actual discussion from people who have actually played the game. :thumbsup:
BTW, I'm in the camp of not liking your font. I respect your desire to stand out, but is there a less offensive/neon green you can use? That one is difficult to look at.

Edit: didn't see the last page until now... I love your xbox post. Brilliant!

I would agree with that.

Well, there ARE a few different hues of green to use. How about this?

I'd leave it the way it was. It adds personality to all of the gray/white.....

I actually haven't had that much lag. Some games there is a lot, other games there are none. I just search till I find one without lag. It is a lot of fun.

Been doing the same thing, only problem with that, is I have to worry about finding one and THEN inviting my friend. So I get a good game, but damnit! NO room, try again......over and over. Quite frustrating tbh.

Have you tried the 5v5 Competitive rooms instead of the normal Versus matches? I've heard that is working well but I haven't tried it yet myself.

It still has some lag in it but it is playable compared to 8v8.

Yeah I will check it out later myself. I've had no problems whatsoever at all with playing coop with friends against bots but we'll see what happens when I try the competitive. I was playing versus last night trying to finish up the Tough As Nails cheevo. I'm stuck on the Security match where you have to stop the missle launch! Gah!!!

Picked up Brink today. I was really on the fence especially after reading the negative reviews and the problems with lag. The first match was horrible. It was actually unplayable. However. I switched to competitive mode and it was a different game. No lag and I really enjoyed it. Its a great game.

Oh yeah! You also made the "I'm that guy..." post.

Classic.

Yup. That was me. LoL

It's a shame that the XBL forums are iffy right now. They're "restructuring" and there aren't even any game specific forums available yet, only General Discussion really.
