I have been following Brink for a few months now and have been more excited for this game than any other game that I have played. In fact, this is the first game I have ever pre-ordered. I have no clue why this game attracts me it just does. I want to know why it attracts everyone else as well. I simple have no clue.

So many things:

Bots
SMART
Customization
Classes
Objective gametypes


Just to name a few :spotted owl:

If you don't know, then why ARE you excited for this game :facepalm:

The art style is what actually grabbed my attention in the first place. Then when i started to learn about the gameplay i also fell in love with the path they were trying to take with this FPS

I don't know why I am excited. I haven't been much of a fan of objective based shooters like TF2.... There is just something about this game..... :laugh:

Edit: The art does look pretty cool too it seems a lot more cartoony and different from most FPS's

And from a hands-on preview (not Neil):
“Then the leaderboard popped up. I had 41 kills and 12 deaths, which as I said was the best on the game. And yet, by score, I was right in the middle of the pack. Why? Because, Rahdo Ham told me, leaderboard score is determined by a variety of factors, including team support. As an engineer, I could buff my teammates weapons, but I didn’t do it enough as I should have. Ham pointed out how a medic was above me on the board because he basically spent the entire game running around healing folks who had been taken down.”

Reminds me of Wolfenstein ET. A game I've been playing on and off for over 6 years. The objective based gameplay and classes are very similar, and if its anything like ET in terms of gameplay, it shall be amazing.

The customization is what gots me hooked

Can't find you on steam... get the no records found page

Because this game sounds like a more complex version of Halo: Reach Invasion. I love Invasion.

That. All of that. Generally the second half, though.

^ This. No need for extra long descriptions or paragraph explanations. Wrath summed it up just the way I would of typed it.

SMART
Graphics/ environment.(theres something about that white mmm)
uniqueness
being creative and trying something new and that needs to be done
The passion SD has for what they are creating
customization
the looks. COLOR.. you know other than black and brown. Blue and more blue, reds, everything! :celebration: :celebration:

Because its not...

• A big "blockbuster" shooter
  
• A copy of a big "blockbuster" shooter
  
• A game where you feel like a big block unable to jump a table.
  
• A game where teamwork is non-existent
  
• A game that insipres hackers, boosters, and kill hogs

Thats why.

For me it's easy:

The Art style first and foremost. The surreal-outlandish cartoon look of the characters and environments had me in a heart beat. It's the same reason why I fell in love with Team Fortress 2. I was so sick and tired of game developers trying to compete to make the most "Real" looking graphics out there. The only thing they succeeded in doing was giving me a head-ache from the strain they were putting on my eyes.

The Cinematic Trailer. Grit, parkour, Jamaican, Big Guy with Machine Gun, more parkour, parkour, parkour, goon stab bug-eyes, epic stare into the distance, EXECUTION!!!......Awesome!

Finally, and y'all are gonna love this one, I've been desperately wanting a good class-based shooter that involves a rag-tag team of resistance fighters going up against a sophisticated military security force. I dreamed of a game like this ever since I'd played the Half-life series. Only instead of being a theoretical physicist in a super-suit r@ping everything in my path like a furby on cocaine, I wanted a class-based game that had a unique art-style, wealth of weapon and customization options, a dedicated objective system where people would work as a team to accomplish a series of complex objectives to further an integrated campaign experience, and to take on the role of a foot soldier who firmly plants his war-boot up the @$$ of any unfortunate snob that gets in my way.

The company "Splash Damage" began production of the game now known as "Brink" shortly after the conception of my idea.

This is why I wanna play Brink.

I ahve been attracted due to the games ability to not take it self soo Dang Seriously. The difference between me and most is the fact that I play to ecsape reality and most people are playing COD and BF and the like for the fact that it's soo real. I love the fact the SD went with the Art style they did and the fact that the game is not one shot one kill makes me a very happy camper.

I like Brink because it is sixy.

BOO NO CAMPING!!

Lol :hehe:

First time I saw it I fell in love. That was a video about the SMART. Then when I learned about the story I was hooked, and finally when I found out about everything else I pre-ordered the game and came here to converse with my fellow Brink-tards. :hubbahubba:

I'll be honest, as awesome as this game is the potential this game has for competitive and tournament play, maybe even Esports down the road is what originally drew me to this game. I have been playing games for an extraordinary long portion of my life and I count myself as more then a fair gamer so this for me looks like the chance to enter competitive or truly pro-gaming like some players now playing for teams involved in Quake, DOOM and any other number of similar games. Maybe my hopes are a little too high but I think everybody needs that "golden ray" in their life to hang onto.

Sorry, try searching for: =(e)=? xBL!NDx

ok thanks

Yeah pretty much this. ^^

Smart- the art style costumasation- and the story behind it can't wait!!!!!
