Brink SteelBook Edition – EB Games – $88.00

Actually this game might B g00d :P

n0mad

love the dev saying, snipers don’t bother go play another game if you want 1 hit kills.
Should be fun, even went and played qwet last night for old times sake, holyshit the homefront forums would have a heartattack if they changed the weapons to that. So much more fun, straff shooting, objective base, no camping in corners, 3 to 4 shots to the head, diff types of objectives.

That the steam pre-order has doubled in price!

Pros

• NO rocket spam
• NO vehicle spam
• NO hang back snipers (Hush Matt!)
• Sticky Grenades that can only be knocked off by teammates (should be fun)
• EMP grenades that not only neutralize turrets, but also slow down the the timer on HE Charges.
• All grenades do little damage (unlike COD) so players will have to use them strategically rather than spamming for kills.
• Medics don’t automatically pick you up, instead you are handed a revive syringe that you can choose to use
  immediately or later when the firefight has settled down (so no more being revived into enemy fire like in BFBC2).
• 16 player servers (8 vs 8) so games will be less cluttered and more personal like clan matches.
• Character and weapon customization looks amazing (I think i will spend more time dressing up than actually playing :S)
• Parkour movement using the SMART system will allow Deadite to be sneakier and more irritating than ever (hehe)
• There is an ability that indicates to you when an unseen player has you in their cross hairs and shows the general direction in which they are viewing you from (backrage prevention!)

Cons

• Medics can unlock a self-revive ability (so i may have to kill someone twice??)
• Cortex Bomb which is much like martyrdom in CoD except the downed player can decide when to detonate it (Seems a little cheap).
• Downed Fire which is much like last stand from CoD allowing the player to shoot while incapacitated (Annoying as hell)
• There are grenade launchers so noob toobing may become a problem.

But at the end of the day, this is SplashDamage! W:ET and ET:QW were awesome games
and creative director Richard Ham has himself admitted that “Brink is Enemy Territory 3. Let’s not mince words here.”
So yes, Deadite want. Deadite want bad.
Pre ordered on Steam already :)

If it’s done like L4D it should be ok (I.E slow rate of fire, little damage, zero accuracy, slow reload)
Also if it’s like qw and you can jib someone or a headshot/explosion insta kills it will be more realistic!

I just lol at the 1on1 fire fight which ends in a 1on1 downed firefight only for “rule of boobs” to come over and TBag both players!!!

I want this game! At the moment, it’s $100 for the box (comes with DLC)

So yeah, I missed the preorder, but It’s not too expensive at the moment.

Will buy it when I get my money deposited :-)

I like that the medic dosnt revive when he wants to he gives you the needle and you revive yourself cos i hated in bc2 when a medic would revive you in the middle of open ground.
