Hey what's up people.

So just a little while ago I was looking at the trophy/achievement list for Brink (if you haven't you can check them out at the Official Brink website) and I saw a few trophies that requires you to complete these so called "What if" missions. I assumed they would be those challenges that have 3 levels to unlock new weapons and stuff but I wasn't entirely sure.

So, if anyone could shed some light on the situation, The Zero would greatly appreciate it

Not the same. What if missions are after the actual campaign, more like alternative ending missions.

Challenges are a different mode that you play to gain upgrades, One involves SMART time trial and the other a medic based one.

there additional maps that dont involve the main story i believe there are 2 per side?

might be wrong

There are two hypothetical missions per side, yes.

Personally, I like the idea of hypothetical missions, but the question is if they will somehow tie into the main story, or if SD will just leave you with cliffhangers.

I doubt that they will leave cliff hangers, if they do then we can hope for a sequel

I believe they are alternate endings.

yeah i figured alternate endings as well, cause of the whole What If title attached or some outlandish story for them

AAAAHHH!!!! Okay. Alternate endings make a lot more sense. That actually makes me more anxious for the game

[/does anyone know how what if missons actully work

there must be side-missions as well...
look at the difference between "viva la revolution" and "you've escaped the ark"
Win all MAIN missions vs. win all CAMPAIGN missions + what ifs

Nice catch I didn't notice that
