>tfw it's free to play now 6 years later Can we expect

God I hope not

how many failure games can splash damage make before they go out of business.

Id and Splash Damage are tighter than an underage whore's butthole, so it may be a possibility.

>Making a game F2P
>To hype up a sequel
That's not how these things work, unless Brink 2 is also F2P... hmm. Brink sucks though. Even the new players will notice that, surely. Why would anyone play Brink when TF2 exists, man?

Brink was probably the first real game where I've seen a overwhelming majority disappointed

>>387951941
I liked this and I reinstalled it a couple hours ago and I still like it.

>>387952537
Why does anyone still play TF2 when it's older than most of it's player base.

I'm glad I can finally see how bad it actually is after years of /v/'s bitching

>>387953401
I dunno, why do people still play Football and shiet?

>>387953619

Because we wuz ghetto n sheet.

>>387953439
And yet you will never feel or truly understand the disappointment that was collectively felt by the entire playerbase when they bought it day 1 out of the pure hype Splash Damage had generated.

>>387951941
>Sentry and explosive choke point flashbacks

Please no

>>387954361
What was the problem, anyway? I bought it after the shitstorm and thought it was fine, but I never cared about it before I saw it on sale. Was it just buggy, or what?

>>387954361
If only it happened back when steam refunds were easier to do. Fuck I hate Brink and want it off my list.

>>387954541
So you didn't actually play the game. Ok.

thanks for giving me the Anger

>>387954541
Unfinished.

No content.

Rushed out with bugs, graphical issues and if I remember correctly, certain graphics cards didn't work with the game which caused a huge divide in an already mad as fuck community.

I don't think the game even received any updates after 6 months, let alone any big content packs.

It was dead on arrival despite having so many people preorder.

>yfw Brink has more people playing right now than BattleBorn

>>387954703
I got to like level 15 or 16. And I didn't say it was a masterpiece, but that it was fine. I don't understand the buttflames toward the game, but I went in blind and cheap, and it ran fine on my rig, so I didn't have anything to be upset about and had a relatively good time with it.

>>387954915
Thanks. I always just assumed the lack of content was because it bombed, not vice-versa.

This is cool cause I kinda wanted to try one of the "shittiest" game of our

So my impressions are
>Bunch of weapons that have barely any difference
>Gameplay affecting unlockables because ???
>Bug that prevents you from joining games in a game that has been out for 6 years
>Literally no setting options
>Shitty do-nothing grenades consume the same resource bar as your class abilities, and have a cooldown on top of that presumably just so you don't accidentally waste your valuable resources on doing nothing
>I threw a grenade when this game first came out and I'm still waiting for my resource bar to recharge.
>Secondary objectives that don't matter

>anon died before he could finish typing his post and play Brink

>>387952669
This, Brink hurt me like no other disappointing AAA release ever has. The game just looked so GOOD.

My copy actually tore up and wouldn't load a certain stage so I couldn't even play a chunk of the 'campaign' for most of the hours I put into the game and I still tried to get some kind of enjoyment out of it, but it broke me.

>>387954541
Graphically repulsive

Terrible map design lead to every game being a turret clusterfuck

No attempt to balance classes. At all.

Little content.

Terrible (outright not working) matchmaking with loads of bots in every game.

There was an average of 8 players playing this before it went F2P, who are these people?

The story and artstyle were great but they completely botched the online component and only had about eight maps total.
I still enjoyed it a lot though

this was a legit good fun game

I remember I loved playing this game on console. I played so much I leveled up to max in a few days. I want to try it on pc now that it is free.

But it look like it is not totally free. The DLC for 2 maps, Abilities, and attachments still cost dosh. I mean I do have money to spare...

So how many of you fell for trap that lets you look around while doing objectives.

I'd almost think this was just done as one last shake of salt on the wound that was all of us who were dumb cunts and bought it at full price years ago. They have nothing to gain or lose, but hey, let everyone get a final reminder that this existed and is still buried somewhere in your Steam library.
