Brink is a First-Person Shooter developed by Splash Damage, creators of the Enemy Territory series. It is published by Bethesda and was released in May of 2011.20 Minutes into the Future, a green initiative to create a self-contained, self-sustaining city results in The Ark, a shining white utopia located somewhere out to sea to hide it from unscrupulous parties. It originally housed about 5000 civilians, workers, security forces, etc. Fast forward to 2025. The sea levels have risen, displacing millions of people all over the world. Some of these people decide to get on boats and set out in search of the Ark. Most never reach their destination, but a lucky few (about 45,000) manage to find the Ark. Our aquatic arcology is now dangerously overpopulated, cut off from the outside world and its once-sustainable resources are now quickly dwindling. Enter The Resistance, angry refugees who believe that the Founders are hoarding resources and not doing enough to improve living conditions and reestablish contact with the outside world. Enter also The Security, the Ark's police force, who have been forced to crack down in an effort to maintain order and preserve the Ark. Both sides are now on the Brink of total war.The game is a fusion of single player, Cooperative and Competitive play, where your character will move from one to the next seamlessly. You will earn Experience Points for whatever you do no matter who you're playing with, and earn new items for Character Customization. You will also be able to move through the environment Le Parkour-style using a context-sensitive, one-touch interface that allows you to jump, vault, slide and wall run all over the place.Poor AI, bad coding, and gameplay elements combined to kill the title on initial reviews and early after release with the end result being a critical and commercial failure that didn't last for very long as a viable multiplayer game with a competitive scene that was dead on arrival.This game is now available for free on Steam, while the DLC still needs to be purchased.Has absolutely no relation to the film of the same name. | |

Unreliable Narrator | |
| Brink! (Video Game) / int_1869b4b1 | comment |
Unreliable Narrator: You're never quite sure which side is giving correct information. Example: One of the resistance's biggest motives for wanting to escape the ark is a plague ravaging the slums. A security officer mentions that it's really just the latest strain of flu. A resistance fighter even questions why the founders would hesitate to look for outside help since the sickness threatens their children as well, but another, more extreme rebel counters that it doesn't threaten them as they live in much better conditions with more medical supplies to spare. It's unclear whether Chen's lying about the whole thing to rile up the guests, or the founders have been lied to about the nature of the sickness. Another Security fighter is seen in the opening cutscene wondering why Nechayev was in the infirmary, which Chen claims to be because he was tortured. Given how slowly Nechayev moves, it seems quite likely. | |

GrayAndGreyMorality | |
| Brink! (Video Game) / int_1b44c21 | comment |
Gray-and-Grey Morality: The developers went out of their way to make both sides seem sympathetic. The Security are trying to conserve resources and their home, The Resistance are trying to improve their lot in life and escape from it. They wanted to avert both La Résistance vs. The Empire and Hero Cops vs. Evil Terrorists. An example from a developer interview—one map, played as Security, involves eliminating a Resistance biological weapons lab. The same map, played as Resistance, has an objective of defending a vaccine manufacturing area. The developer was quoted as wanting players to make the connection that vaccines are developed from viruses. Complicating the issue is that both sides appear to be operating under limited or false information. Highlighted in the final What-If mission in the Resistance's campaign, where they destroy a vital component of The Ark's function, fatally irradiating the whole thing, and are then berated by their leader, Chen, for not realizing that he was only bluffing. Or when the Resistance's goal is to leave the Ark to reintegrate with the outside world (crippling the Ark's ability to remain functional in the process) when Security already thinks that the world has become a horrid Mad Max wasteland, and the men they sent to discover this were all slaughtered, when in fact there are peaceful civilizations out there, they just don't know about it. Perhaps the clearest example of this is the briefing and opening cinematics for the mission where the resistance plans to launch a missile into Founders Tower. Chen informs the resistance that the tower is empty and it is merely a symbolic blow. Mokoena tells his men that the tower is in fact occupied and that a strike on it would kill thousands of people; one of the security officers mentions that if it were to be destroyed, it would take a dozen other pelgos with it, presumably from falling debris. It's unknown who was telling the truth. In the "Agents of Change" DLC, Chen tries to blow up the tower the old-fashioned way, with actual explosives. He tells the Resistance rank-and-file that the explosives are "fireworks" to form an ad-hoc lighthouse to signal the outside world. This would presumably cause devastation comparable with the missile strike. Portrayed visually when playing as each side in the single-player campaign. When playing as Security, the Resistance includes guys with evil clown masks and spiky shoulderpads. When playing as the Resistance, the Security includes guys wearing ridiculously-flashy outfits and football gear. | |

| Brink! (Video Game) / int_1c445e86 | comment |
Poor Communication Kills: Chen refuses to tell the Founders Council that the arkoral is going sterile and dying and that the Ark is literally crumbling beneath them, all because he fears he'll be used as The Scapegoat and nothing will change. Had he shared this information, the Founders may well have been motivated into action and decided to risk contacting the outside world. | |

Limited Wardrobe: Averted; the characters in the cut scenes are shown to change clothes and hair styles over the course of days, often appropriate for the situation(a man being called for a resistance mission unexpectedly is dressed in his work uniform). One of the What if? missions, that assume you failed an earlier one, show a resistance member to have lost an eye in the failed mission. | |

Shining City: At its inception, The Ark was this. Though it has fallen into a state of minor disrepair, its shiny origins can still be seen, most clearly in that big central tower. The arrival of the Guests and their building up of sprawling slums around the central Ark proper has turned it into a decaying Mega City. | |

Psycho for Hire | |
| Brink! (Video Game) / int_2d6f00e4 | comment |
Psycho for Hire: Its suggested that several resistance fighters are either this or believed to be this by both Security and the resistance leaders. Joe Chen regrets the need for "men of violence" to accomplish what needs to be done, but considers it necessary. Not that security are immune to this; Mokoena worries about taking men like this into the security forces. Like Chen, he tolerates them as long as the Ark is in a state of open warfare, but promises himself that they'll all be purged from the ranks as soon as hostilities cease. | |

Land Mine Goes "Click!": Mines can be planted by The Engineer. They are invisible at first, and are revealed if stepped on. However, they do not detonate until stepped off of, so a careful player can save themselves by waiting for a friendly Engineer to disable it. Operatives can always see concealed mines and can "mark" them simply by iron sight aiming at them for a few seconds, revealing them to friendly sight and radar. | |

Le Parkour | |
| Brink! (Video Game) / int_54cc6b24 | comment |
Le Parkour: All the player characters can do this, although how much you can do depends on your character's body type. Where you look and where you are affects what you do. For example, say there's a ledge you want to get to, with another wall standing perpendicular to it. Run at it with the SMART button and you'll hop off the near wall and grab onto the ledge. To wit, heavies can only vault, middleweights can vault and mantle, and lightweights can vault, mantle and wall-hop. You can also use the jump and duck buttons, which is harder to master but gives you more control and actually performs moves faster. | |

Flooded Future World | |
| Brink! (Video Game) / int_5b075cd7 | comment |
Flooded Future World: 20 Minutes into the Future, global warming and rising sea levels have rendered most of the earth a giant ocean, with the Ark, a City on the Water built before the flooding, and a few mountaintops as the only known places where humans survive. The Ark itself is suffering an Overpopulation Crisis due to holding nine times as many people as it was originally designed to host, leading to resource shortages, severe wealth inequality, resentment between the refugee community and the Ark's Founders, and eventual civil war. | |

Godzilla Threshold: In the resistance canon ending, this is crossed;Sure, people beyond the Ark may well be hostile savages, but the sad fact of the matter is that the Ark is dying; the arkoral has gone sterile and the Ark is slowly crumbling out from beneath them, and the Guest slums are not so slowly rusting away. Ironically, Chen and the resistance don't know that they're crossing this line because they don't know about the hostiles in the outside world, and more so, the resistance members themselves don't know that the line needs to be crossed as Chen hasn't told anyone - Founder or Guest - about the problem with the arkoral. | |

Kick Them While They Are Down | |
| Brink! (Video Game) / int_7ab81664 | comment |
Kick Them While They Are Down: Players who lose all their health are initially only incapacitated. It takes a lot of damage, but you can finish off a down opponent from afar, or finish them in one hit with a melee attack. Opponents hit by molotovs or melee attacks can also be executed in this way, but be careful- stunned opponents can still shoot back. Or worse - if it's an Operative, they might have a Cortex Bomb that explodes if you try to finish them off. Medics can revive themselves when downed after taking a certain perk. The last set of abilities you can purchase at Rank 5 includes a Last Stand perk. Although anyone who takes this perk is significantly easier to kill when incapacitated, they are able to continue fighting with their secondary weapon after a few seconds. | |

Status Buff: The Medic can restore lost health bar sections and add one extra when he uses his healing tool, while The Engineer can buff weapon damage. Certain command posts provide team-wide buffs (like extra health or supply bars) when captured. Engineers and Operatives are able to buff the command posts - the Engineer's buff causes the post to give an extra bar of health or supplies, while the Operative's buff makes the post take longer for the other team to hack into. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero! | |
| Brink! (Video Game) / int_7fbb2a3 | comment |
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Both the Resistance canon and non-canon endings. In the former, they succeed in getting off the Ark via plane, but we find out from the Security version of the mission that the rest of the world is a Crapsack World even worse than the Ark, and the Founders don't want to make contact with them, assuming they'll come for the Ark's Lost Technology. They may be right. Later changed when we find out there was civilized life outside of the ark in the Agents of Change DLC. In the non-canon version, Chen threatens to destroy the Ark's main reactor if the Guests aren't allowed to leave, which would kill everyone. The Resistance does, then we hear Chen tell his second-in-command he was bluffing as it goes critical. Godzilla Threshold: In the resistance canon ending, this is crossed;Sure, people beyond the Ark may well be hostile savages, but the sad fact of the matter is that the Ark is dying; the arkoral has gone sterile and the Ark is slowly crumbling out from beneath them, and the Guest slums are not so slowly rusting away.

Character Customization: Options include different tops, bottoms, face and head gear for the two factions, but you can also change core features like your face and body type. Your body type is actually a gameplay thing- The Big Guy can use big guns and take a lot of hits, but the Fragile Speedster has the most freedom of movement and Le Parkour ability. There is of course, a middleweight type if you prefer a balanced approach. | |

Artificial Stupidity | |
| Brink! (Video Game) / int_940a5958 | comment |
Artificial Stupidity: Because of how the game is set up, toggling the difficulty to "easy" will cause your team members to behave just as stupid as the enemy, since it affects "computer controlled" characters. The main difference, though, is that you're usually on the attacking side, where there are multiple paths to a single objective, but just one main objective at a time. So while your team is running around in circles broken into three or four different squads running between secondary objectives, the enemy will have all of its troops stacked on the one thing you need to destroy/hack/repair/whatever, destroying you and your troops piecemeal. This has the side effect of making the defensive missions a cake walk, though. | |

Guns Do Not Work That Way | |
| Brink! (Video Game) / int_95ff52c7 | comment |
Guns Do Not Work That Way: Despite the below, some of the weapons work differently from how they would in Real Life. The Drognav, which resembles the DSR-1, is depicted as being a semi-auto rifle with the magazine in front of the trigger, despite the real thing being a bolt-action rifle with the bullpup configuration. The CARB-9 bears a resemblance to the PLR-16 and SU-16A (both by Kel-Tec), neither of which are 9mm Submachine-guns. The Tampa SMG and Galactic SMG both have their charging handles move while firing. The G3 and TMP families have non-reciprocating charging handles. The Galactic was also modeled with two ejection ports, for some reason. Similar to what Call of Duty: Black Ops II would do a year later with the M1216, the Hjammerdaim (modeled after the shorter M1208 if IMFDB is to be believed) fires automatically per-tube. This is only true of the MLE-12, a select-fire variant of the M1216. | |

Infinite Supplies: You have a Supply Meter which governs how often you can use abilities, whether class-specific (healing, detpacks, repairs etc.) or general. You have limited uses at any one time but the meter continually regenerates. More to the point of the trope, as long as there's an alert Soldier around resupplying you, you won't run out of ammo. Each ability has its own cooldown meter. Interestingly, grenade use has one as well. Barring said cooldown (of varying length depending on the type of grenade), you have infinite grenades. | |

| Brink! (Video Game) / int_b23e7ba9 | comment |
Real Is Brown: The developers are also trying to avert this. One of their stated goals is to bring color back into shooters. There is a bright and varied color palette for environments, characters and even the guns. Container City and Shipyard play this trope straight, however. Both of those places are littered with rusted shipping containers, garbage, mud, and other structures that are also rusting. Actual colors are few and far between. | |

Both Sides Have a Point | |
| Brink! (Video Game) / int_c02f148d | comment |
Both Sides Have a Point: The game has no clear bad guys, as both the Security and Resistance have legitimate grievances against each other. The Ark could sustain itself on a population of roughly 5,000 people, but with 45,000 hungry, scared refugees flooding in, the Ark naturally can't feed them all. The Security is trying to maintain order and distribute what little supplies are left to those who need it, while the Resistance are scared people trying to look after their families and leave the Ark to find a new future. Unfortunately, the Security won't allow that, because what little is left of the outside world is apparently in even worse condition than the Ark, as explorer teams had been slaughtered by the natives. Thus, they can't risk the Resistance escaping and possibly leading these marauders back to the beleaguered Ark. But as the Resistance believes, the entire world couldn't have fallen into such a state and believe it is a lie to keep them on the Ark as slave labor, and there are implications that support their view of some outside world civilizations being peaceful, with the Founders just having the bad luck to run into one of the more savage tribes. | |

A.K.A.-47 | |
| Brink! (Video Game) / int_c2b28f75 | comment |
A.K.A.-47: The guns come off as this, coupled with clever wordplay: Kalt (a 1911), is German for cold, and it not only sounds like Colt, it is merely one letter off. Tokmak combines Tokarev and Makarov, but is clearly shaped like the Bul Cherokee, The Sea Eagle is named after the Desert Eagle. Its model, the Jericho, is nicknamed the Baby Eagle. The game's only revolver is called Ritchie. Because Revolver (2005) is a Guy Ritchie film. The Belgo, a VBR PDW, references the original machine pistol's Belgian origin. The Hockler (MP7) blended up Heckler & Koch's name. The Drognav parodies the Dragunov, despite being built like a DSR. Likewise with the Barnett to the Barrett M82, but it's modelled after the Mauser SR-93. The Tampa expands on the Steyr TMP's name. The Galactic pays tribute to the Universal Submachine Gun, or the UMP. The Kross is a Kriss Vector. Because "crisscross". The name for the Magpul PDR-C-esque submachine gun, the Bulpdaun, is a play on its bullpUP form. The Euston (an AR-15) used the name of Eugene Stoner. The SIG lookalike AR is called Rhett. Try pronouncing it very fast: Sig-Ar-Rhett. Sigarrhett. Cigarette! The Gerund gets its name from the M1 Garand and (by extension) John Garand, despite being modeled after an M14 MCS. The FRKN-3K is a FAMAS with a crazy name. The Mossington combines Mossberg and Remington, but is shaped like a Benelli. If you're too legit to call the automatic shotgun anything other than an M1216, then Stop! Hjammerdaim. The Lobster (a GL-06) lobs grenades. The EZ-Nade easily achieves Grenade Spam. The Maximus plays on the name Minimi (M249). The Chinzor is built like the ChainSAW, but its name makes no sense otherwise. And of course, the Gotlung machine gun. | |

Unfortunately the rest of the Resistance doesn't know about this, and blow up the reactor, condemning everyone on the Ark to death by radiation. | |

Dreadlock Rasta: Many Resistance characters are seen sporting dreads. It makes sense, given that a sizable portion of the Ark's population is black and the Resistance are rebellious anti-government types. You won't see any Security types (played by bots) with this hairstyle. The white Resistance members usually have shaved heads or some kind of punk-rock hairdo. The members of Security can have dreads, but they have to have them in a ponytail or under a baseball cap. | |

Hypocrite | |
| Brink! (Video Game) / int_d52d28b6 | comment |
Hypocrite: Both Mokoena and Chen are this to some degree, though their hypocrisies are portrayed in a manner that presents them as flawed human beings. Mokoena deems Chen as a terrorist riling up the Guests into violent revolt, but a chunk of his Security is comprised of dirty cops and thugs who abuse their power and give Chen ammunition to stir up the Guests in the first place. Despite Mokoena promising to purge them from his ranks after hostilities cease, it's these men that incite said hostilities, when he could have publicly denounced them, or even fired them to make a point that Security does not tolerate them. Chen labels the Founders as selfish tyrants who hoard most of the Ark's supplies for themselves, but has admitted to sabotaging the Ark's resources to artificially induce mass shortages that he can blame on the Founders and rally more support to his cause. That doesn't even go into the Resistance practically destroying various Ark resources to make ammunition in their war against Security. Likewise, as much as he detests Security's corrupt officers, many of his own rebels are also violent men just looking for a fight. Additionally, Chen exhibits a degree of selfishness himself, as he refuses to tell anyone else about the decaying arkoral, fearing that doing so will lead to the Founders blaming it on him when it may spurn them to do something about it. | |

Your Terrorists Are Our Freedom Fighters | |
| Brink! (Video Game) / int_f2c895f | comment |
Your Terrorists Are Our Freedom Fighters: Cutscenes and characters on the security side basically demonize all of the resistance as crazed madmen out to ruin The Ark for selfish reasons, while the Resistance paint themselves in a far more heroic light in the resistance story as protectors to the downtrodden Guests. One mission has the Security absolutely confused and infuriated over the fact that the Resistance would build a dirty-bomb to use on the Founders, and that the Resistance are using wrongful and dirty tactics to win. The Resistance cutscene has the Resistance state amongst themselves that it isn't a bomb, but a cure to a recent epidemic, and they're holding onto it because the Founders won't disperse it fairly amongst the populace while they'll make sure that everyone gets a fair dosage. The only time the game is not like this is in the Reactor stage. Whether you're playing Resistance or Security, the Resistance are treated as maniacs for wanting to detonate the reactor. Just as well, as Chen didn't actually want anyone to do it for real, just to threaten to do so as a bluff. In the audio logs, Chen admits to staging a False Flag Operation or two by sabotaging desalination plants and robbing clinics to artificially create drastic shortages he can blame on the Founders so he can turn public opinion against them. Lugard Adobe's audio logs have him gleefully ignore the reality that he and his fellow Resistance fighters are basically destroying vital Ark infrastructure (mineral blocks that protect steel from corrosion, water filters, etc.) to create weapons to try and usurp the Founders. | |

Last Stand | |
| Brink! (Video Game) / int_f7cee9b | comment |
The last set of abilities you can purchase at Rank 5 includes a Last Stand perk. Although anyone who takes this perk is significantly easier to kill when incapacitated, they are able to continue fighting with their secondary weapon after a few seconds. | |

Ascetic Aesthetic: This was the Founders' design philosophy. It can still be seen in the original areas. This is not the case for the sprawling Guest areas. | |

Cutscene Power to the Max | |
| Brink! (Video Game) / int_fe262584 | comment |
Cutscene Power to the Max: There are a couple instances, but for the most part this is averted. The picture caption above is also somewhat inaccurate. You CAN shoot while running around on walls and doing complex maneuvers, but because of how the SMART system works, it is very difficult to do it effectively. | |
