Why Are These Things Happening (Xbox 360 Edition)

Post » Thu May 19, 2011 7:34 am

There was an update right? Maybe one of you pro-gamers who don't work for Splash Damage can help me. I'm level 13 if that helps.

Why are the textures always warping from blurry to non-aliased?
Why is there still rubber banding and extreme cases of lag, much more frequent than a stable game no matter what type of multi player? I can't get in any decent games and am forced to just play on my own.
Why is the Be More Objective Challenge (3 star) literally next to impossible just to clear the initial objective now?
Why when you try to invite a person into the Be More Objective Challenge (3 Star) the game then becomes 2 on 5. 2 humans verse 5 satanic Super Sayan Bots who kill you in 3 shots but take 2 clips of SMG to drop? It shows the bots names but they literally don't exist at all.
Why on single player solo on EASY are the bots 5x harder than they were before the update. They literally mow down my entire team, and im left by myself and the whole opposing bot team hunts me down like it's an extreme nightmare setting. No matter how many coms I take, no matter how I buff the coms. No matter how I buff my team.
Why is the grenade launcher in the game when it really serves no purpose? Does anybody actually use it? Maybe it's the invincible satanic bots. I haven't tried it on human opponents.
Why after the "tweaks" the only multi-player games that have that team of 4 setting have friendly fire on it as well?
Why does it take longer for an operative to comm hack then it does for a medic to revive a teammate?
Why is there firewalling when it doesn't make much of a difference on the time it takes take a post?
Why doest it feel like several weapons were nerfed after the update?

I have many more questions, but we can start with these. I really feel like because of the flaws and disrespectful amount of quirks the game has it's a God awful 6/10. I'm trying to enjoy it, but it's like eating your favorite food with broken glass in it.

Why are the textures always warping from blurry to non-aliased? - Pop in problem. CoD has this too just not as bad.
Why is there still rubber banding and extreme cases of lag, much more frequent than a stable game no matter what type of multi player? I can't get in any decent games and am forced to just play on my own. They are doing all they can to fix it. Every game is not perfect when it comes out.
Why is the Be More Objective Challenge (3 star) literally next to impossible just to clear the initial objective now? It is not impossible I have beaten it. But I do say the AI Bots are ridiculously hard.

They literally mow down my entire team, and im left by myself and the whole opposing bot team hunts me down like it's an extreme nightmare setting. No matter how many coms I take, no matter how I buff the coms. No matter how I buff my team. Agreed. But as you level up so do the bots.
Why is the grenade launcher in the game when it really serves no purpose? Does anybody actually use it? Maybe it's the invincible satanic bots. I haven't tried it on human opponents. I tried it. It's two shot. And very useful for crowd suppression. Meaning when there are a lot of enemies around.
Why after the "tweaks" the only multi-player games that have that team of 4 setting have friendly fire on it as well? I have not tried it yet. But you can probably disable that no?
Why does it take longer for an operative to comm hack then it does for a medic to revive a teammate? Why is this a problem? And anyways a medic throws a syringe not a PDA, so disguise naturally makes sense to take longer than the medic's revive.
Why is there firewalling when it doesn't make much of a difference on the time it takes take a post? I have never used it.
Why doest it feel like several weapons were nerfed after the update? I felt some of the weapons were nerfed before update.

I have many more questions, but we can start with these. I really feel like because of the flaws and disrespectful amount of quirks the game has it's a God awful 6/10. I'm trying to enjoy it, but it's like eating your favorite with broken glass in it.


Hope that helped.

I didn't bring up CoD but I've never seen CoD turn into jagged Nintendo 64 randomly like that? Is my copy of Brink for 360 perhaps defective?
I know every game isn't perfect, but I don't think I've ever witnessed a game with net code this bad. Have you? The only thing that ever came remotely close was Gears Of War 2, but it wasn't this bad at all.
Have you played Be More Objective Challenge (3 Star) after the update. I challenge anybody to youtube them beating that. God forbid you invite a friend. I won't touch it anymore. I guess you have to be an MLG pro to get the first or second objective done in that.
When your character levels up, it doesn't make your guns or armor any stronger. Is the bot fix part of the update or do we have to wait 2-3 weeks for certification?
Are you saying that the grenade launcher is 2 shot kill? I've hit bot opponents with it 3 times, and all they do is fall down and get right back up.
The comm hack is different from disguise. Comm hack is when you intel about the enemies position. It's irrelevant, i can't even get into decent games long enough to use it.
Why would they nerf weapons when nobody really was complaining about that?

You obviously haven't played enough of the game if you haven't figured this out by now. It is in the game to help slow down groups
of enemies at choke points by knocking them down and wounding them for you and/or your team mates to finish off. No matter
which GL you use they are all very effective. Granted the EZ-Nade is pretty worthless because it takes 2-3 grenades to take an
enemy down, but it can still be very effective. Ever try the underslung GL on your favorite assault rifle? Knock 'em down and then
finish 'em off before they can get up. It'll eat your face off.

It is only a matter of time before this setup becomes severely overused and abused.
