hi i saw the new brink trailer and i want to know what this "credits" do in the game?

Credit will be how you buy abilities. It seems that you earn one credit per level. Abilities are assumed to cost 1-2 credits.

This

You get 1 credit a level, so a total of 20 credits

20 credits for like... 100 perks and attachments and guns... i miss the e3 2010 days i really do... if you look in the e3 showing when their doing the perks hes level 2 wqith like 10 credits... :cryvaultboy:

No, Credits are for abilites and abilites only.

Guns are unlocked through Challenges (I think), attachments and customization stuff are all unlocked with thier own seperate ways. You don't have to choose between spending your credits on guns or abilites.

There are also about 50+ abilities, some of which you get for free.

i dont think attachments cost credits i think you unlock those automatically per level or through challenges but i have no proof of this. it would be silly if you only got 20 points and had to decide between attatchments, guns and skills

Thanx for the correction. still it seems like their are far more abilities than credits by a large margin and if i max out my character can i still obtain credits?

No. I think there's been said to be 52 abilities, and each character can only gain 20 credits. You aren't supposed to be able to gain every ability with one character; then everybody would have the same exact builds and gameplay would just be stale.

52?
I may be wrong be last count I had was 10 universal, 10 engineer, 10 operative, 10 medic, 10 soldier

No. Maxing out your character gives you 20 credits, and there are about 50 abilites, some of which require more than one credit. You'd have to make several characters to be able to play with all the abilties in the game.

In the bright side, leveling up should be easy. If hear if you play through every map twice (one time as Resistance, one as Security), you'll be around level 14.

Weapons are unlocked through level progression (leveling up your character), abilitys get unlocked with leveling up as well, but a few are avalible to buy at the start, attachments are earned through challanges and leveling up (i think), and archtypes are gained through leveling up (and some are gained from some challanges).

At least that's what remember

I got a question. if you have multiple characters can you switch them in-game. Cause if you can, wouldnt you just max out a character for each class?

No, you can only switch the class they are playing as, but their abilities are linked to the character that you loaded the game with.

First thing I thought of when I read the title was, "seriously, he doesn't know the credits are the names of all the people that worked on the game?"
