customization, or however you spell it.

Post » Tue Mar 15, 2011 4:27 am

For brinks character customization, i was wondering if you had to have a archetype? or if you personally could edit your characters facial figure, such as jaw line, eye spacing, nose size etc...
And not just for the face but for the body to such as upper body size, (muscular, skinny, fat). but for each part of his body?
So you could turn out a character with the torso like a wrestler out of the new wwe superstars game where everything is over dramatic. or potentially have a dwarf for a character, because that would be pretty enjoyable to see. im not saying they should put dwarves in, because it wouldn't be fair, as your usual headshot would have to be a groin shot. thanks :).

Archetypes are just clothing sets that can give you guide lines when creating a character.
But the faces, and nothing else for that matter, can NOT be customized with sliders like you asked. There are many preset faces from which you pick, and body size is determined by selecting one of three body types, light, medium and heavy.
You might want to visit the Brink Compendium, to answer most basic questions you might have about the game:

In addition to this post I would like to say that they didn't want customizable faces (sliders) because the majority of people are not capable of creating a face that looks real. They wanted to keep the style similar for everyone.

Indeed, if they did, you would see deformed faces with a big nose and giant eyes that are at your forehead, and BIG BUSHY EYEBROWS. :P

Everything is set but you can change colour and texture. REALLY OFF TOPIC: where is the Brink 2 wish list?

It's rather that people are not capable of creating faces that look unique. Overall it will become a very general-looking mishmash with only a few exceptions for those who invest some hours into their character. I found http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/521/revoluzzerearly.jpg to have fairly unique facial attributes. However, it's pretty damn hard to recreate (and I tried to do it, twice).

I think it's a little early for that... I mean it's too early to talk about DLC, but Brink 2? It's a nice idea but Brink one hasn't even come out yet.

The guy who says "are you ready to use these, brothers?" in the vid below sounds like he has an Irish accent.

British, Irish, Jamaican, American are confirmed, afaik.
And I guess there will also be German or French and a Russian one.

In total there will be 8 voices, if I'm not mistaken.

I seem to remember in one of the interviews, a dev explaining how the voices work and using Irish as an example...

I pretty sure I heard a Russian character during a video, but that might just be me. I can't wait to make an Irish cop character.

My first guy will definitely have a russian accent.

And if you are a Vin Diesel fan, you shouldn't be playing Brink. You should be coloring.
