Competetive Brink

by Asylum • 8 Jun 2011, 21:09 • Journals
So..

Quite a relatively long time passed till Brink was released and promod is still not out. Do you think competetive brink will live, or will it be too late when promod is released?

How is the current metagame?

Also few questions about configs, what can you configure actually? I heard you cannot change the crosshair, so what can you change exactly? Is it as adjustable as ET is?


Refer to my last journal for hot hot hot hot hot hot chicks.

IMO it is quite okay to play(have only played pub+challenges) and with some minor and not so major setting it would be great. Only bad thing is that is quite low tempo in comparson with ET. Would have some future with promod.

Fov etc some minor things but not so much. Tbh don't even know what I can change just playing :)

actually it has not been thaaat long.
cod4 took longer to be playable and even then we had a long period of pam VS promod (and ofc the ESL idiots went with pam which dief off cause it was shit).
BRINK does not have the community behind it tho to pick it up after the new cod and bf have been released. if there wont be a SDK soon i can very well imagine newer title pushing brink completely into the backround.
it really is up to splashdamage and hopefully they do not solely invest their time in milking the cash cow via DLCs (which they appear to be pretty busy with atm).

+1 brink had soooo many bugs and clearly wasnt play tested

i saw in their latest update they added a full ET style server finder UI, something thats been in games since like forever.

not to mention the annoying reviving, ati bugs etc..

no offence to splash damage but what they released is a pretty shoddy product and its been a failure on consoles aparently (i think a TDM mode would have helped there to be honest, and allowing a way to find non-bot populated games).

its a shame coz brink has alot of good things going for it, but also alot of bad and not much appeal other than ET and ETQW players it seems

I didnt like brink since ESL. The esl tournament was pointless badly made bad rules, To me that killed the game for me and kinda ended me playing online games as much.

I havent played any MP game properly since that terrible cup. For me that was either a rushed cup, Or ESL are just shit or both. Its still a great game with potential But if this mod doesnt come out shortly its going to die fast.

As far as I remember it took around 4-6 months for ETpro to be released. ET was released in the spring and ETpro came out in the fall; someone please correct me if I remember wrongly.
