What year is it?

2017

 

[hydruxo]

I still regret buying this game to this very day.

 

[ShdwDrake]

Didn't they come out with Dirty Bomb as the spiritual successor?

 

[TheDanger]

wtf lol I'll try it

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

Brink had the worst level design of any multiplayer shooter I've ever played.

 

[Gestault]

We made it, ya'll.

(I actually think developments like this are a great gesture to the remaining community)

 

[AzureSkies]

IT'S TIME

GOTY 2017

 

[CronoShot]

Bought this game day 1

 

[MattAces]

Holy shit. Talk about year of dreams. Knack on PS+ to complete the list.

 

[Sora the Cat]

So is this worth it? I might give it a try as I have never played it

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

This game, for as much as it was flawed, had some of the most coolest traversal mechanics in a shooter.

 

[Apdiddy]

This reminds me, I need to get the Platinum for this game. Got the game for $3.

 

[Johndoey]

Looks like this had zero forewarning or build-up unless I'm missing something. Weird.

This is all I see. http://store.steampowered.com/news/31896/

 

[QuantumSquid]

whaaaaaaaaat

 

[Omegabalmung9]

Bought this game day 1

Yup same here and it was a game that i was super looking forward too. The game had so many problems on the ps3.

 

[Nirolak]

Looks like this had zero forewarning or build-up unless I'm missing something. Weird.

Quakecon just started. Presumably it was supposed to be announced a bit later today.

 

[Bizazedo]

Bought this game day 1

Same. My only gaming purchase regret. And I am super lenient.

 

[_Aaron_]

Who owns Brink? Bethesda or Splash Damage?

Seems odd that Bethesda would decide to make it F2P now, but Splash Damage seem to have done alright with Dirty Bomb.

 

[GarthVaderUK]

I remember this, it's shite.

 

[Rats Off To Ya]

 

[sixteen-bit]

Didn't the launch of this game coincide with the apocalyPS3?

 

[Johndoey]

Quakecon just started. Presumably it was supposed to be announced a bit later today.

Ah. That makes more sense.

 

[Chanser]

I liked it.

 

[Delusibeta]

Well, it's not like anyone's actually going to buy this, so they might as well make it free.

 

[EventHorizon]

whaaaaaaaaat

He said...

BRINK BECOMES F2P 6 YEARS LATER!!!​

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

OVERWATCH IS DONE FOR

 

[mnannola]

It's the year 2017, and someone was paid money to do something in regards to Brink. What the hell?

 

[Metal-Geo]

Everything about this game's design sounded and looked promising and intriguing.

Everything about this game's execution is the exact opposite.

One of the biggest gaming disappointments to me. I doubt it'll keep new players playing, at all.

 

[Joey Ravn]

Have they fixed the "issue"/design decision by which the game runs at 30 FPS is you're playing singleplayer?

I was ready to love this game, but the dreadful performance kill it for me :/

 

[QuantumSquid]

lawbreakers thought it was competing with overwatch when in reality it's competing with BRINK

 

[Wolfgunblood Garopa]

Sit down, relax and have a Brink

Agreed, one of the biggest gaming blunders I can think of. So much hype snuffed out so fast once you get your hands on it.

 

[LordRaptor]

I really liked Brink.
Much more than Dirty Bomb.

Hopefully this gives it a shot in the arm and the only playerbase remaining aren't super hardcore clanmates

 

[alr1ght]

F2P as in F2P or F2P as in free?

 

[kulapik]

F2P as in F2P or F2P as in free?

Probably completely free.

 

[Sora the Cat]

So gaf's general opinion is that playing this game isn't worth it?

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

The Back from the Brink update

 

[RandomExpletive]

Wow... That's... Yeah didn't expect to see the name Brink anywhere besides "games you regret buying" threads

 

[Kyne]

F2P as in F2P or F2P as in free?

F2P as in failed 2 perform.

 

[Jawmuncher]

They obviously announced its F2P because Brink 2 is being announced

 

[Htown]

I think I played this way back when they had a free weekend for it, which was apparently SIX YEARS AGO, and it just wasn't that interesting.

 

[zephervack]

As someone that played a shit ton of Enemy Territory, I was so hyped for this game, I will finally play it.

 

[Tapejara]

I remember buying a physical copy of this game years back, weird to see it now F2P.

 

[Fred Feuerstein]

I still regret buying this game to this very day.

This. Was so hyped back then and bought it at release day for the 360... goddamit

 

[Salty Rice]

Still have the PS3 version in my backlog haha

 

[Joey Ravn]

As someone that played a shit ton of Enemy Territory, I was so hyped for this game, I will finally play it.

You're setting yourself up for disappointment. Don't do this to yourself, dude.

 

[Neuromancer]

Brink was actually a lot of fun for me to mess around with with bots. Go for it

 

[Widge]

Where did Brink go wrong?

 

[Amagon]

Fuck that, first game I bought day one that I had to return the same day because it played like shit.
