Joystiq: "The game takes place on a floating utopia, and its poor refugees tacked onto the outskirts. This is where the main conflict lies, between the army of the main island and the rebel forces of the poor ghettos. The player can play solo or take the fight online with private or public multiplayer. If the preferences are set to public, simply start playing and real players will drop in sporadically to replace NPCs.
Simply "dropping into" a match is something Splash Damage is committed to. "We're challenging those assumptions, like, 'Why do I need to be in a lobby before I start a match'" Wedgwood told us. "And, 'Why do I need this party thing if they're on my friends list anyway?'" As flexible as that is, at the same time the game is very customizable. You can decide how many AI players you want, or whether or not you want to reserve a few spots in the match for your buddies."
AAA games get all the attention. But some games get lost in the shuffle. Especially shooters! Make time for these five.
I didnt care for brink. I thought it was going to be like overwatch back in the day.
It’s time to Switch to Brink before taking 12 Orbits around Letters from Whitechapel? That sort of works.
Six years later, and the game is available to anyone who wants it on PC.
3 weeks left, can't wait.
