Hey guys. Has anyone got Brink and if you do what do you think of the game? How full are the servers and are there SA servers?
Short answer no. Save your money. I took my copy back this morning and got my cash back. Probably the crappest game I have played in a long time.
Have to ask the PC guys. PS and Xbox suck! Even if i still own a PS3. I only use it for Racing games. Oh and before anyone tunes me like a radio i have owned an Xbox 360 and PS3 and PC all at the same time and PC just is so much better. You just get a different feel from a PC for a game and that is why i want only PC opinion and thus put it in the PC Gaming Forum. I don't think i have ever been in that PS and Xbox forum, i have no interest there.Quote:

I have to disagree, it's loads of fun tbh
Takes some really getting use to though - played for like 5 hours last night.
Love the customization of it from the characters to the guns.
There are issues to it though - if your team doesn't work as a team and you have more players going for kills then you will suffer and find it frustrating. Seems a clan {Crack} think it was is already hitting it hard and playing it really well as a team.
There is like 6 local servers from what I've seen you can join at any time provided it ain't filled with 16 players - bots are added (not sure if it's all servers) so you can play and people just join and the bots are removed.
Friendly fire is a pain but nothing to stop you from playing - the challenges to be done to unlock extra stuff can get challenging but your able to co-op them with up to 4 players.
If your tight on money give it a skip - if you have the money then go for it - I'm still wondering how long it will last in SA
It's a nice break from BC2 and when coming back to BC2 last night after Brink I kept trying to slide on the ground and jump up on buildings such as you do in Brink :P
It ain't a title for the year but to me it's loads of fun
Edit:
Clicked on the link there to the other post made and saw few comments about head shot....
Um there is head shots - loads of players last night with Sniper Rifle getting one shot kills and loads of them but it ain't about kills its about the objective and how you do you role in keeping/doing that objective
I would skip personally. Even if there are a few players on now, give it a month or two(very optimistic) and it will fade into obscurity.
thanks man. I do have the money for it but i am not a fool with my money. If it is not that good and there are stupid bots on the server i will defiantly give it a skip. Thanks again dude!Quote:

But honestly, I give it another month and Brink will be a long lost memory. People won't even be talking about it. Just my opinion though. :)
I was also looking forward to it. Wanted to test my rig with the graphics as well. i decided to wait after i was burnt by Homefront and MOH! Stupid games! Dont know any mates with the game. haha
I tried it for a bit and really didn't enjoy it :/
Maybe Yahtzee can convince you:

just Meh...

Although I will never really know what Brink is like until I play it myself, I can safely say that I made a good choice in not buying it. :P If I see it 2nd hand or a really good deal I might just consider getting it, but for the moment I'm perfectly fine without it :)
Yeah im so glad i played this at a friends before buying it. Reminds of some Homefront fail. Not as bad but close. Skip it and wait for Duke Nukem....
I think Brink sux!
gameplay does not that nice
Decided to give it a skip, too few people like it so that means too few players to play with locally. That and thought it would have great modding support like UT3 and it didn't...
Also Witcher2 and Fable3...
I say no to brink, most dissapointing game ever from bethesda...
/AgreedQuote:

Agreed. Its really a crappy gameQuote:
