Damn i have been looking for info on this for a while. Yes, i can vouche that when you reach level 20 the game informs you that you unlocked something else : UAV, napalm, sensor and one more thing. But i could not find anything on what those things are. I even tried looking at the abilities section thinking that those things where kinda like surprise abilities, but know im leaning towards thinking they were removed from the game, but the noticed stayed as a bug.

"hey guys! were releasing the game a week early since its done early!"

yeah... now we know why they released it a week early... cos its an early beta release

On the Beth Blog they announced that the first DLC for brink is going to be free, so the stuff that you guys are seeing maybe the result of the half finished DLC.

I've been hearing alot about this, can someone give me a link to any information regarding the DLC?

Theres been like five threads that says free dlc and new update out something like that

ive hit 20 twice.. on ps3.. never seen that.. but then again .. i did the day one download patch before i played...

Actually, I have a 360, had the update and I recall getting those unlocks as well (I specifically remember 'Pyro Landmine')

Was that suppose to be cute? Or are you just trying to be moronic?

Just for those who are still not sure about this..
I took it with my phone, so it's bad quality.
And from left to right, those three are "Pyro Mines," "Napalm Grenades," and "Field Regen Unit"

Sure wish I had pyro mines.

Yeah I got the same awards.

They are:

Napalm grenade
Tactical sensor
UAV
Pyro mine
Field Regen Unit

I've excluded the ones that are announced but are visible from the outset: the lazarus grenade, the satchel charges, the gattling turret, the emp grenade.

Maybe these abilities were cut, but I was really confused and respeced my character to see if it was a glitch. Because I got the achievement, "time to start a new character" I thought maybe these abilities require another playthrough, but that's not the case.

I guess these were too powerful and were decided to be axed.

what system are you using?

Xbox 360 and I have not downloaded any patches.

When testing the different voice actors one of the lines I heard was "Micro UAV deployed." (from the guy second from the bottom) - perhaps the Comms Hack ability used to just be an op. deploying a UAV. Why not make it a hybrid? The op. must use the remains of fallen foes to create an organic UAV that scouts the battlefield.

I think so. Dice did the same crap. They loaded their game disks with all kinds of stuff and used much of it as DLC (which was actually a unlock key/code)...some you even had to buy...which imo was low down and grimy. Or maybe the weapons made the game unbalanced.

nv, delete this post -.-
