I'll be moving to Brink from Global Agenda and a bunch of other random games. Looking forward to it!
Btw, are there any fellow Singaporean players waiting for Brink?

Again, sorry I meant no offence. I just noticed the majority of people seemed to have registered within the last few months.

I wasn't deadly serious. ;)

I don't know if anyone actually migrates from one game to another, but whatever.

From what I've experienced a lot of people actually do. They play one game and when the next comes around the corner they totally drop the previous one.

Have you heard about rumors of a GTA V this year?


I've personally been predicting it would come out this year since Red Dead Redemption was released.

I guess it will be a console-exclusive again (damn you, Rock-falling-star), so I'm not excited at all.

Borderlands and Monday Night Combat.

Really looking forward to the co-op aspect of Brink; I just hope I'm better at the game than I am at MNC. :blush:

Depends.

If you are talking about multiplayer games, I never play online multiplayer, but I do offline co-op in some games.
The off-line co-op games I have played a lot in before the coming of Brink--and still trying to finish---were: Borderlands, Halo: Reach, and Gears of War. :)

If you are talking about non-multiplayer games, I have been playing a lot of Infamous, Uncharted 2, LittleBig Planet, Dragon Age Origins and Mass Effect 1+2. ^_^

Team Fortress 2 and Monday Night Combat.

I'm a die-hard PC gamer, and started playing Enemy Territory: Quake Wars shortly after hearing of Brink.

Multiplayer seems to be where it's at though when it comes to Brink. I'd recommend getting online for it, since it's pretty much the main selling point of the game. Playing against bots will get boring when you've got no one sitting next to you to play with.

Yeah, sadly, I know. Most games are online multiplayer anyway, so. *sigh* I always feel many of the popular (or well-known) games, especially shooters, are never for my kind (either too online, too competitive, too gory, too hardcoe, too male-oriented [fanservice], etc), which is why I play games that are "female/casual-friendly" like Sims, Bioware games and stuff like that. :(

I've played Modern Warfare and Black Ops and enjoyed the single-player campaign, even though it's supposed to be more for the online.*

Heh, reminds me of the time an old childhood friend of mine came over and was SHOCKED, absolutely SHOCKED that I never played online for the Call of Duty games. He's all, like, "But, I like making fun of other people, teabagging and pwning everyone! It's so much fun that way" and I'm all, like, "What you just said right now is exactly why I avoid online like the plague in the first place, lol!". :D
Then I would get frustrated of him pwning me in local multiplayer (I didn't know how to play any of the objectives or multiplayer modes) and told him, "We either take turns on playing single-player or I will not play [Black Ops] at all, dude!" And, of course, he fails at following directions in single-player (he likes being such a bad*** lone wolf that way) and died because of the AI bots killing him, lol.

*If the Bots are good in Brink, I wouldn't mind going against them. Especially since I'm not a "hardcoe"/competitive player. I play easy on most games, for goodness' sake!

*sigh* Your friend is part of the reason I'm grateful for party chat on XBL - is antagonizing other players really necessary? Far too often I'll hear people try to start fights for absolutely no reason other than to get themselves paid attention to.

And honestly, why bother teabagging in Call of Duty? It's not like the other player can see you do it, so it just looks stupid.

And, of course, he fails at following directions in single-player (he likes being such a bad*** lone wolf that way) and died because of the AI bots killing him, lol.


This evoked yet another sigh, and it's one of the reason I stopped bothering with Call of Duty - TEAM Deathmatch should actually be team oriented, not simply mindless killing.

*If the Bots are good in Brink, I wouldn't mind going against them. Especially since I'm not a "hardcoe"/competitive player. I play easy on most games, for goodness' sake!


Sure, but I'm inclined to believe a win would be much more satisfying if it was done by properly co-ordinating with one's teammates - which, as far as my personal experiences have gone, is true rather often. And when those teammates are actual human beings working together, instead of AI simply responding to your actions, the feeling is that much better.

i'm coming from Halo, yes, I am getting it for the 360, I also have a ps3 though, and I am coming from MAG on that, but I already have it reserved for xbox, and I like the xbox's triggers more than the ps3's little bumper thingies

I'm coming from halo reach i like it but its getting old and this game just seems so in depth when it comes to player custimization wich i love.
but it enforces the need to work as a team. unlike halo or C.O.D. (wich i also play) but it always seems as though everyone is out to get you not working with you.
That is unless you play with some friends but in any other case other players either dont trust you or just dont want to talk to you.
but in this case every one needs to work together or it all goes to hell but i think those classic lone wolves will still try to do it on there own by goin operative and just sneeking around. but even if they dont know it completing the objectives on the wheel helps the team. I also enjoy the thought that the game isnt based on how many kills you get or your Kd ratio wich i'm not gonna lie im not exactley good at not dying i can get i bunch of kills but dont expect me to not die. and i know some troll is gonna comment or reply
HA HA NOOOOOB!!! or somthing to that perspective. but i try and i find that a kd ratio doesnt say how good someone is expecally if they camp. i can understand a sniper camping in his nest but seriously any game i go to they're in it. but in this game camping has no real value so i say good luck.
Oh and i have Mag its a good game the only reason i dont really play it anymore is cause no one plays and kinda think its a shame........ but a least brink will come soon.

P.S. i have both consoles i like them both but i find that the Xbox has better triggers in my opinion but its easy to shoot faster with the Ps3
but i pre-ordered it for my Xbox sry Ps3 i just have more online friends on my Xbox.

Bad Company 2 and Homefront. Love them both, can't really stick to just one, but I don't really play any other FPS games. I ran around Black Ops last night and had a blast getting destroyed because I couldn't remember the controls and mechanics.

I have fun in my own ways.

Since we're all pretty much new to these forums (cause Brink isn't out yet :P) I figured it would be cool to see what games people are coming from and to find out more about each other. I've never bothered getting this involved in a games' community before until way after I got the game but there's something about Brink that's special so here I am.

I'll start:

So I'm coming from a game called MAG, if you're on PS3 you might have heard of it. It's an online team-based FPS and it's not as popular as it should be. Basically it's dying a slow death as less and less people play it so I was unbelievably happy to discover Brink a month or so ago. After playing MAG and getting involved in it's community, most other online shooters bore me. Killzone 3's fun online but just doesn't have the depth I need to keep me hooked. Brink on the other hand appears to have several layers of tactical depth and plenty of customisation. More importantly it rewards you like no other FPS game for teamplay and completing objectives. Furthermore, having been a part of MAG I know that it's when the game actually gets into player's hands that the real tactical depth is revealed - the developers never manage to explain all the possibilities so I can't wait to see what everyone can do in this game!

EDIT: I guess I should clarify, when I say what game are you coming from I mean what game(s) are you going to give up/play less in order to play a load of Brink? Or if like me you mostly tend to play one game online at a time then what game are you coming from and what is it that Brink offers that your previous game doesn't?



Weird, I'm going to still play MAG, but not as much once Brink comes out. What faction do you play for Funk89?

Team Fortress 2 although I am going off it due to the lack of support on the Xbox version, and Shadowrun, perhaps one of the best online shooters of this generation, I enjoy playing other shooters like COD and halo reach but I always end up going back to these two :)
