Brink: Bethesda Releases Some Huge Numbers

Brinkcomes out this Tuesday, and in advance of the launch, creators Bethesda released some huge numbers, including 102,247,681,536,000,000. That huge number is the total number of different characters that can be created with the game's avatar maker. I'm going to make every one!

Many more numbers are under the cut, including the number of weapon combinations (4963), the number of lines of dialogue (26,000) and the number of ways to die (45).

• Number of ways to die – 45
• Lines of dialogue – 26,000
• Individual weapon sounds – 4,500
• Voice Packs – 8
• Minutes of Music – 60
• Weapon/attachment combinations (not counting Resistance variations or pre-order content) – 4963
• Unique Security Characters (not counting minor tint variations or body types) – 4,530,240
• Unique Security Characters (not counting minor tint variations but including body types) – 13,590,720
• Unique Security Characters (including minor tint variations, but not body types) – 15,775,119,360,000,000
• Unique Security Characters (including minor tint variations and body types)- 47,325,358,080,000,000
• Unique Resistance Characters (not counting minor tint variations or body types) – 4,530,240
• Unique Resistance Characters (not counting minor tint variations but including body types) – 13,590,720
• Unique Resistance Characters (including minor tint variations, but not body types) – 18,307,441,152,000,000
• Unique Resistance Characters (including minor tint variations and body types) – 54,922,323,456,000,000
• Total Unique Characters (including minor tint variations and body types – 102,247,681,536,000,000

That's a lot of variation.

I'm not gonna worry too much about all the variations and just hope to create someone cool to look at.

none of that matters if it plays like crap, which it has a huge potential of doing.

wouldn't hold my breathe for this game.

A few times a little can make for a lot. I'm never swayed by numbers like that. Just like Borderlands n billion guns.
There are videos of character customization, which does seem quite elaborate.
Yet I feel like something is missing when they show that stuff. Normally I like making my character the way I want to and can spend more time in character customization than playing the actual games. Here I don't get that 'need', don't know why.

...looks like im going to be spending alot of time in the avatar creation screenlawlessx

Dead-Memories

a ton of different combonations, but most of them are minor variations. Granted this game looks good, but those numbers are just fluff

Am i the only one who see this game plays very almost like killzone?

You can have all the crap you want in it, but if it plays like crap, its crap

Borderlands had huge numbers and that game was awful, this reminds me of it so I'm keeping away.BigBoss255

This game is nothing like borderlands though...

The bottom(2nd) link doesn't work.

EDIT: Now it works.

Yup. This game's gonna be awesome.
Pre-Ordered for the PS3. :D

This puppy is already chilling on my PC waiting to be unleashed, can't wait. Direct2drive is having a promo again for 37.50 if anyone is interested.

Nothing like it may be an understatement!

except in killzone the grenades were basically one hit kills, tons of recoil for the guns and each character felt like they were being weighed down with bricks.

This is more Team Fortress + Mirror's Edge.

in the end everyone is probably gonna look the same

mainly due to the fact killzone 2(notice i said 2) developers are working on this game.....GG had a split up in between kz2 and kz3, and a few devs went to SD

I wonder how many of those variations involve simply changing the colors of various pieces of clothing.

Played it, Not so great :( One of those games your friends get, but you don't want to tell him how lame it is because he hyped it up. So you have to wait the boredom off until he is bored. Don't need to explain either. Everything you think it will be, is true.2013th

I would like you to explain. Where did you play it, how long, what didn't you like, and were you actually trying to be a team player?

I'm syked really, but skeptical. Bethesda has only let me down on one game I can think of (Star Trek Legacy) and the crappy splinter cell rip-off (never played it)

I have faith they won't screw this up majorly, how bout that?

Inconsistancy

And Splash Damage made one of the best MP shooters: Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory.

none of that matters if it plays like crap, which it has a huge potential of doing.

wouldn't hold my breathe for this game.

Dead-Memories

Truth. I hated Oblivious so I'll be waiting a few weeks after release this time to see what the word on the streets is before I purchase...

This is more Team Fortress + Mirror's Edge.

They probably used the same method as Borderlands by combining parts together to create a "unique item."

it looks awesome :D
