Sneak peak on upcoming game from splash damage - Brink

Brink(2010) is an immersive first person shooter from Splash damage and Bethesda games. We had a look at Brink's sneak peak trailer which seems quite promising. The video shows a multiplayer environment where players battle it out - Hard! with some really serious weapons and loads of ammo. Something like Survival of the fittest scheme. We like!

Battlegrounds - The Ark

The battle takes place on an abandoned place devoid of daily commute, called the Ark, which supposedly is an experimental man made "green" city now taken over for Civil war between warlords. (Sounds familiar..?)
It houses two superior groups of people, the security and the resistance forces.The Ark looks like a floating city with variety of environment that gives you a hundred reasons to run and gun in freestyle and a few hundred more to save your sorry ass from a greater power!
Originally built to support about 5000 inhabitants, its on the verge of instability and desaturation due to unexpected rise to about 50k inhabitants! The story focuses on you choosing either side and fighting till the other is completely terminated.

The Gameplay

From what we have seen so far, the game play looks fluid with tight controls and good camera. Brink promises to give you unlimited player customization capabilities that will let you project your personality into the game. The game is said to host strong multiplayer options and you can seamlessly take your personalized character to online and campaign modes!

Character movement seems to mimic freestyle running like mirror's edge yet combines a true first person shooter perspectives. Splash damage quotes that they have fine tuned the gameplay with proactive decision system called the SMART that pre-calculates your movement enabling you to pull out a wide array of combos.
