http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSekdoPI5Lk as seen in the first seconds of the trailer it sais "last Ark destroyed" does this mean their is more htan one Ark? does RAGE tie in with BRINK? I this the end of the game? (blows up ark apocolypse happens) all i have to is a: DUH DUH DUUUUUH :bolt:
The world of Brink is so self contained that it could in theory be the same storyline, since there's no way to say for sure that there couldn't be a giant vessel floating around in the pacific ocean.
But, I don't believe there is any intention to have the two stories related, they just happen to both use the term "Ark" because it conjures to mind Noah's Ark that just barely stopped all life on earth from dissapearing. The "Ark" in both Rage and Brink does something similar. Using verbal imagery like this is a way to add more implications to the game while avoiding adding narration.
Besides, they are both made by different developers. Bethesda is the publisher for both, but are not involved in writing the storylines.
