Post » Thu Jun 03, 2010 11:02 am

Greetings,

Brink is the first game in my whole life, that took my attention,

I was wondering in the pre order pack will be:

Exclusive weapon: the “Hockler” Machine-Pistol
Exclusive “GreenEye” Combat Optical Scope
Exclusive Security “Sloani” Combat Mask
Unique Dogtag body tattoo


But before i am going to pre order this i would like to know

????Will there be a pre order pack with concept art book, or something like that????


if yes! i WILL totally buy it^^

best regards....... Me

There are 4 different pre-order packs depending on where you actually make the pre-order, you can see them in the following link:

As far as special or collector's editions, no one knows, not even the devs it seems. In a couple interviews, the devs have mentioned that there is a lot of good concept art that would make a cool artbook, if they end up making a special edition.

If one comes out, you should be able to upgrade your pre-order, though.

Yea, you can always just cancel an order and then pre order it again. As long as it doesn't ship (which it won't) you're safe.

Many companies make it a hassle to cancel, you might be better off trying to contact someone and upgrade, or just explain what you're trying to do when you cancel to buy the more expensive version.

Don't the DOOM and FALLOUT pack basicly answer the question, if weapons can be customised, colour-/skin-wise?

For a long time I have said that there are [most likely more] skins because of that, but I'm not sure if you are able to alter the colors of the guns in any way, to make them more personal.

Limited edition / special edition versions of a game are hard to market with a game that is making its debut. That's why games like halo have had special edition, legendary, etc, versions of the preorder since halo 2, because it was a well known game and they knew people would buy the more expensive editions, they knew people would want it. But with Brink, they don't know if people are willing to pay extra money for a game that has never been seen before.

You do have a good point but i hope your wrong because i really would like a limited edition or a special edition of Brink but all we can do is sit and wait and speculate.

Maybe that's why there are DOOM and Fallout packs. Those certainly have name recog.

I hope the Psycho and Spec Ops pack exclusive weapon/silencer/scope won't be 100% exclusive to those who get those packs. Exclusive cosmetics are fine, but exclusive guns with their own stats can be imbalanced and unfair to those who don't have them.

I guess the Hockler SMG (MP7) will be similar to the MP9 (which is available to everyone), though. Perhaps a slightly better ROF, but less DMG.
And the Caesar Revolver will most likely be similar to the one available for everyone, but with the option to put a silencer on.

But generally I do agree, that only visual content is better than "real" stuff.
