No one really knows why since no one will tell us, but I think it has something to do with how D2D was selling keys. I think they were selling UK keys to all of Europe and we know how Steam loves its region based pricing

From what I understand, the AI scales it's intelligence based on your characters level, and the friendly AI have inhibitors on them to encourage you to play with humans.

Splash Damage announced they would be removing this behavior soon, if I recall. So that may be your problem.

I know there have been lots of complaints of performance issues, but the only real issue I have had that is anywhere near is that the client crashes if you alt tab for more than thirty seconds of so.

I was worried about picking it up on the PC as theres been some news that it runs really bad on ATI's.. so I got the 360 version, I traded that in and picked up the PC version anyway and believe me they are like two different games.. the PC version runs flawlessly for me.. the 360 version looks AWFUL

Loving this game

Currently for some reason it's not available in the UK, with no updates as to when this'll be fixed.

What's the price around?

They changed it already. I played through the entire campaign on hard as a light operative and I didn't have to switch classes but once or twice the AI will do the objectives if your not going for them on the wheel (you can still guard).

For those with problems on ATI HD 5700 or similiar cards:

Roll back to Catalyst 10.11 !

I know it sounds like standard driver magic but it really did work for me. I get 50-60 FPS now on open maps and it actually feels like those FPS. Think thats a common problem at the moment - the perceived FPS-feeling is really bad on ATI cards somehow...

So I got the game today, and while really fun, I'm having a major problem graphics wise. Now I'm pretty much a total nub at everything computer related that isnt PLAYING a game, or just using the internet.

The problem. Black boxes where I shoot, grenades are massive black squaring doom clouds, lots and lots of black rotating boxes........

My card. NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285M

And the solution....I have no clue. Turned off all the fancy graphics options, and set everything to the lowest I could. Nothing.

Things like the run around checkpoint map works just fine if I dont shoot at all, but the first level of the game is filled with black boxes.

Are your drivers up to date? Have to tried using older drivers?

Watch the Brink Tv stream http://thebrink.tv/index.php?show=2 then decide its a niche game and better on PC. I love it but it's not for everyone. It also needs some patches.
