theres only a 5% chance you will get the 1 sec respawn. sorry for my concerns guys. i mean , this game is my only hope. i want a good and fun game before fall 2011.

...In all likelihood it will fall short in some areas though, as we as a community are holding it up to almost impossibly high standards. That being said I'm still fairly confident that it will blow most, if not all other modern fps' out of the water..

hey guys. i currently have no fps atm other than black ops, which is painful to play. like ive previously stated, brink is the only good looking fps coming out until the huge fall of 2011 that will include uncharted3( my 2011 GOTY) resistance 3, battlefield 3, and yes unfortunatley mw3.

im counting on SD to deliver a quality shooter unlike anything we have ever seen before. i really dont want to wait for fall to hit before i can buy another quality game. i mean, if brink flops, i will just buy la noire, which looks kool. team bondai/rockstar were stupid and felt multiplayer wouldnt be neccesary so i doubt ill be holding onto that game for more than a few weeks.

my gut feeling is telling me its not going to be as good as we expect. New IPs usually dont do so well in the very competitive fps market. i hope to God i am completely wrong. but sadly, my interest in the game is declining. i want a fun, action paced game, but i do think the 20 sec respawn timer will kill any hopes of that. 10 sec would be perfect IMO. anyways, good luck SD. i hear you have a good background, and i hope brink is the game we all expect it to be. just a few things taht are scaring me right now. must be tough to be a dev these days.....

OT: Not every game needs multiplayer. There are many good single-player games out there in which multiplayer could ruin the experience.

ah well i think most people tend too for get where the FPS started in this life time.they made Duke wich im gona buy june14 woot but if they said we are bringing back Doom i buy that any day.

wouldn't want anyone else in my epic Elder Scrolls adventure that features MY character as the lone hero, lol. :tongue:

Thats true Mass Effect would be ruined If multiplayer was introduced, and thats just 1 of many

Well I wouldn't be averse to having coop. However the logical choice after Mass Effect 3 is MMORPG.

Yeah I suppose that would be good, Split-Screen would be pretty nice too.

Well coop would go with splitscreen, I would like having a friend with me to take down the Reapers.

I do hope they take out mining though read down below!


"SHEPARD HELP US...>EARTH ITS BEEN TAKEN OVER...." Yells a earth civilian

"Could you guys wait a year saving the Planet dosnt come cheap you know"! Says Shepard

...Bet he does it faster than the Quarians.

And much faster than a http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHseWNr7iKk.

Latest game informer says mining has been removed :celebration:

Well I think more the fact that the earth is overrun with Reapers and Shepard despite being Shepard can't do it alone. Bet he does it faster than the Quarians.

The spawn time/technique has already proven to work perfectly fine in not 1, not 2, but 3 different games already - Return to Castle Wolfenstien, Wolfenstien: Enemy Territory and Quake Wars. This goes for pubs and competitive games. And all these ames follow the same class-based, team objective gameplay that Brink is based around. Why are people still worried about it?

OMG, thank goodness, lol! That's one of the reasons why I couldn't upgrade / save the world as well as I would like to: because I didn't
mine /scan for elements stuff.
Co-op in Mass Effect universe could be fun and cool.

On-Topic: Let's wait and see how the game is before denouncing the wave time. It might be shorter than you think. And, like the others said,
try out SD's other games to see if their respawn times and gameplay are any good. If it really, really bothers you, to repeat others, try
a Medic class or try to stay near a (good) Medic or a friend who happens to be a Medic. ^_^

I really don't get why everyone is hating on the respawn wave, it's not like that's how long you'll wait everytime. Once you get incapacitated all you have to do is look up, check the time and decide whether or not you want to hold out. If there are 20 seconds left on the timer, just hold tight and wait for a medic. If there are less than 10 seconds, bleed out and join the respawn. I don't get what the big deal is at all

They hate on it because almost no other game has an automatic respawn wave. The only game I can think of that has a set respawn is Battlefield, and both Brink and Battlefield have it because they don't want people just LMG/Heavy Rushing an area instantly respawning and causing hell for players.
