Voting Guidelines

  1. Do not vote unless you have played the game.
  2. Do not vote until you have dedicated a substantial amount of time towards the game.
  3. Do not vote based solely on the descriptions from the trophy list.
  4. A time consuming game does not necessarily mean a difficult game so vote accordingly.
    Examples;
    • Warhawk is time consuming and difficult.
    • Resistance 2 is time consuming, but not difficult.

 

[*]Vote with honesty and integrity.

This plat is looking pretty easy so far, not on the same level as Sly 1 or Megamind or anything, but easy none the less. Guess I'll wait till I plat (probably very soon) to vote.

 

Yeah you better hold your vote until you play campaign on hard. Its a serious bitch with the awful AI.

whoever voted for the 6 out of 10 I would have loved to know why you voted for that. Game doesn't look to hard and many users sometimes use the polls to buy games. And I'm one of the users on here that might pick this up depending on the opinions on here. Especially when PSN is restored. Thank you. :)

OMG they are the worst! Have you played the "Be More Objective" challenges yet?

 

That challenge is hard even on two stars. I been able to beat the other ones with 3 stars. Hopefully I will be able to plat this game soon and put in my vote.

Yeah I beat all challenges on 3 stars and they are easy compared to playing the game on hard mode. The 2 & 3 star objective challenge and the 3 star escort challenge are all tough but doable. The campaign on hard mode is like a 4 or 5 star challenge. People really should not vote until they have beat campaign on hard.

It might be easier to get that trophy by waiting for the online to come back. "Win all storyline campaign missions (not including What-If missions) playing either Online Versus, or in Hard Mode"

I started the game on hard from the start. And while there's some luck involved to get the team to come together on certain objectives, if you pick the right class and aggressively go after objectives you can beat all the missions with just a bit of effort. And once multiplayer comes back online, you don't need to beat it on hard for the plat.

I finished the campaign on hard a little earlier, had to play a few maps a couple times. It wasn't that tough when i figured out routes, the first objective is a gimme if u get to it quick enough with the right class, completing objectives will give u a hefty time bonus so go for speed for the 1st & 2nd objectives you'll have time for the rest. USE THE AI AS BAIT!! It makes things a ton easier. I have all trophies exept collect all audio logs & have a engineer disarm a mine u spotted. AI refuses to disarm!!! I've even switch classes nada. I'm gonna rate a touch prematurly 6/10 offline, after learning how to use the AI.

The Key to beating the challenges are to do them with a New Character. This way, you don't have to worry about the AI with equips because they level as you do.

Exactly, and 3-star Be Objective before doing anything else.;)

Now that I officially have the platinum (no PSN proof :mad:) I rated this game a 5. If online is working and you can boost a lot of the stupid luck based trophies then it would be a 3. As it stand now offline only its a 6. So in-between I chose 5 over 4 because your basic shooter gamer would not be able to finish all challenges & hard mode. But anyone who considers themselves a Real FPS gamer will no doubt knock them out after much frustration.

Just did the challenges in one sitting. Note that I was only at LVL 4 or 5 when I started, so as some of the gents on this thread had already stated. Knocking the challenges right in the beginning would significantly lower the difficulty of obtaining the plat. The only one that did slightly frustate me was "Tower Defense" 3 Star challenge, everything else was a breeze.

 

Not rating it yet since I don't have the plat yet.

not gonna vote yet cause not attempted hard story yet

but so far been fairly easy to get trophies quite a few I got just doing free play even at first before i realised how to get bots in i got some

challenges were not too bad i read here some 3 star were bit difficult but I got the tower one in my second attempt and the objective one second attempt other 2 first time i tried them i got them and i use the same character currently at level 12/13 but from what i am reading when i go for hard guess will create and use a new character

lol hardly done any of the story was messing around in freeplay so could get used to the maps once your used to them makes things alot easier

I just voted it 3/10. I just Platinum it today 05/15(proof in sign). The audio logs were not the pain in the ass I thought it would be. The only really difficult trophy is "Tough as Nails". But this can be easily achieved playing it in co-op online.

people need to go revote after playing campaign online instead of hard, i did it with one friend and one or 2 random people every other level and had no trouble

 

this game gets a 2 very easy to get everything without even trying and for the few trophies with very specific requirements you can set them up in private matches

 

THE ONLY REASON I DIDNT GIVE IT A 1 is the 3 star missions and even they arent that hard

Just because you thought it was easy doesn't it should be for others. Did you even try to play Hard with your high level character on your own? Even with your low level character, the enemy AI are always on teams, kicking your ass.

 

People have the right to give it a vote even if they didn't go online. Don't forget, before PSN was finally back online, some of the members here went ahead and played on Hard by themselves, which means being forced to do most of the stuff on their own because of your incompetent AI partners getting shot numerous times by the gun smart AI enemies.

I concur. Gotta give it to the devs though for making such an unbalanced set of AIs.

I gave it a 7, i know it is weird, but most of it was easy, but only if you had the patience for it, and i think that is key for beating Brink and getting that Platinum. I struggled on the Challenges but when i realized you could do it by starting a new character and finishing it off, it was not to hard. But it does take a lot of time to do, especially the Audio Logs and playing the game on Versus online, because you have to remember which cutscene you did not get in the first place. Also add that with an unbalanced A.I where on you're team they are not as helpful versus the other team which they seem more in sync or harder to hit. That is my main reason for rating this higher on 7.

 

P.S for the trophy hunters you might as well buy this game and play it online real quick for the trophies and not playing it on Hard mode because it can be impossible unless you got a few friends who can join in then you are alright.

I rate the difficulty somewhere in between a 3 and a 4. In the end, the only difficult part of the game turned out to be my first Easy mode playthrough due to me being over-leveled.

 

I got my "Tough as Nails" playing normally online. It wasn't even worth mentioning. The only mission I had to re-do with randoms online was the Day 6 of Security.

 

You will receive audio-logs over the course of the time. Playing through easy mode got me only a few of them, but my online playthrough yielded 2 per run. The rest of them were acquired by playing reactor in freeplay with no bots.

 

I am still a couple of trophies away from platinum, but all of them are luck based. I will probably end up boosting them in the end.
