CommAnD Posts
In every mission, there are one or more Command Posts scattered about on the
battlefield. These are neutral at the beginning of a mission, and either team
can capture them. If one is captured by a team, that entire team earns one of
two bonuses. Either every member of the team gets a longer Life Meter, or every
member of the team now has a longer Supply Meter (see page 11). This bonus
stays in effect until the enemy captures the Command Post, or until the mission
moves on to a new section of the map.
Command Posts captured by your team also allow anyone to use them to refill all
their ammunition, equip any available weapons, and change Class (see page 10).
You can use the Objective Wheel to find the nearest Command Post to perform any
of these actions (see page 14).
Capturing and keeping Command Posts is very powerful, and a sure way to help
win the overall mission.
CHALLenGes
In addition to the core missions of the Brink storylines, you can also partake in
extra Challenge levels, where your skills will be tested in a variety of ways. Each
Challenge has three increasing levels of difficulty, and every time you beat one
of those levels, you unlock new weapons and weapon attachments. When you’ve
made it to the top difficulty level of each Challenge, you unlock an online lead-
erboard, where you can compare your top scores with players from all around the
world, and also with your friends. There are also separate co-operative versions of
the same Challenges.
As you Level Up and earn new Abilities, it’s worthwhile to revisit the Challenges to
try to best your previous scores with your new stronger characters.
BE MORE OBJECTIVE
Fight to complete a series of objectives while the rest of your team supports
you and draws the enemy’s fire.
PARKOUR THIS
As a Light body type, race around a 3D maze, hitting all the checkpoints in
any order as fast as you can.
TOWER DEFENSE
As an Engineer, you will need to use all of your abilities in order to stop
multiple waves of enemies from capturing your Command Post.
ESCORT
Use your Engineering skills to keep the repair robot up and moving while
you escort it to the end of the level amid incoming waves of enemies.
DeAtH
When you take
enough damage,
instead of dying, you
are “incapacitated”.
This means you’re
still alive, and still
have the opportunity
to be revived by a
friendly Medic to
continue the fight.
Being revived also
has the benefit of
earning you an XP
bonus.
While incapacitated, you can choose to wait for a Medic, or you can chose to join
the next “Reinforcement Wave”. At regular intervals, new waves are launched, and
anyone who has been incapacitated and who has opted to join the reinforcements
will find themselves back at the beginning of the level, ready to continue the fight.
While waiting for a Medic or for the next Reinforcement Wave, you are still able
to look around and watch out for approaching Medics as well as nearby enemies.
Enemies are capable of “finishing you off” with a few bullets or a well placed
melee strike. If this happens, you no longer have a choice to wait for a Medic, and
must join the next Reinforcement Wave.
smARt
Brink features an innovative movement system called SMART (Smooth Movement
Across Random Terrain). Thanks to SMART, you can easily and automatically
navigate over or under obstacles and climb ledges, letting you focus completely on
the action and making the right tactical decisions.
Using SMART is easy. Just hold down the
button and run towards your destina-
tion. SMART will take care of any obstacles in your path and help you to perform
any necessary jumps and slides. You can interrupt SMART at any time by letting
go of the SMART button. You can also fire your weapon during any SMART moves
though your accuracy will be reduced.
Once you unlock the Light body type, you’ll be able to perform wall-hops by
jumping towards a wall and pressing the jump button again the moment you
collide with the wall. Performing wall-hops in the right places can get you to previ-
ously inaccessible areas, so don’t be afraid to explore.
Lastly, you can perform all of the SMART moves manually using combinations of
the sprint, jump, and crouch buttons. In fact, if your timing is good, you’ll move
smoother and faster.
