Worth the Wait for Brute Force

**noodleboy** · 03-10-2003

I think so:

Brute Force

Although the version of Brute Force we saw didn't have all of its features and modes functioning, we did catch a glimpse of what's being called the Dynamic multiplayer system. Basically, DA is now allowing gamers to join games in progress on the fly whether you're talking about splitscreen or System Link. So if you've, started up a solo campaign and your buddy busts in your house and wants to play too, you won't have to start over from the beginning. He or she can either sit next to you, split the screen and play with you cooperatively. Or,if you have another Xbox and copy of BF on the same network, they can join you over System Link and play cooperatively. Ultimately you can have four people playing each of the characters cooperatively through the main campaign mode

I don't know if this is old news to everyone, but it justifies the delay...and with help from Bungie on the designs and mechanics of Brute Force, we should be pleasantly surprised by this game.

Well this game has been teasing us since OXM demo disc #2. That was a loooooong F'n time ago. Im quite bitter about how long this game has been in development.

Hurry up and release the F'n game

Is this game getting released in April or June? I forget which it is......Regardless of its lack of Live play I'm still anticipating this game a great deal.

Well Brute Force is my most anticipated game for Xbox and i was bit saddened that it got delayed but in other hand it is good that they will get all the bugs correct and improve gameplay etc. in it during that time.

This game has disapointed me before it has even come out. All of the stuf I thought was already in the game was only put in after that long as-s time. I have a feeling I am going to be uber disapointed with it. Heck, it already is the biggest disappointment on Xbox for me. I cannot believe they didn't have system link before...

I, for one, am extremely bummed out that Brute Force is not on XBox Live. This game would be so much more....HUGE! if it only was XBox Live capable.

I'm not just talking about Content Downloads...I mean, head to head multi-player...deathmatches...team deathmatches.... Damn! Is this a squad based shooter? Yes! Then, why the hell this game isn't XBox Live capable is beyond me....

Does it even have multiplayer? If so i wonder why they didn't implement Live support to it? Unless they delay it because they are implementing Live support to the game.

I was gonna buy this only cause of Xbox Live...but now there is no live so, no thanks.

**MerimacHamwich** · 03-10-2003

BAH! zignored again. As I already stated in this thread, they delayed Brute Force in order to add system link and other multiplayer modes that we all thought were already in there, except for LIVE. I am thinking that if it took them that long to incorporate most of the things everyone was expecting were already in there, that the game won't be to good. It sounds like another Enclave is coming down the pipes. Meaning another HUGE disapointment. Don't get me wrong Enclave is still an alright game but it could have been AMAZING.

well, they're doing it know, so it's not a lost cause.

i think the game has some serious potentiall, especially since bungie is assisting the helm....

There are Enclave 2 that will be show off in E3. Maybe the sequel is what you wish for.

What the crap are you talking about?

**wbio** · 03-10-2003

I guess I will just have to play this on XB Connect

. I don't see how they could be taking this long and not making it Live enabled. I sure hope it doesn't get delayed again though. Maybe we should just expect it to come out in December and then if it comes out earlier, it will be a pleasant surprise.

I hope so.

Covy, I don't think they are adding Live now. They might be, and I sure as heck hope that they pull this game off right but my expectations are low.

Maybe that will turn out to be a good thing.

With XBox Live = a buy

Without XBox Live = Maybe I'll rent it.

**ShannonX** · 03-10-2003

its a definate buy for me, live or no live... i could care less about live games since so far, I have not played a live game i could give half a crap about anyways. And i actually have friends in real life, so we'll be getting together and doing some system link coop which is a hell of alot more fun than online play.
