there we go. now i can show funny pics with out pormo adds

i love how captain falcon is a car driver, but is more well known for his punches in super smash bros

Of course since Super Smash Bros was a far greater success than... what that the name of the title? I am 2 lazy to go look it up now.

f-zero. best racing game ever

i think split second's gonna be better

I'd like to see maybe a drop down thing. Like, if your on top of a building, and theres an enemy under you, you could drop down and either knife them or put them in a chokehold or something. that would be really cool.

I still say fighting like an Apache.

Better than ninja anyway.

Better then an Anger anyway.

Indeed

better than http://lfgcomic.com/page/357 anyway. wait. what?

There should not be any punching or anything like that. It would get REALLY stupid.

The sliding thing is kind of cool but I REALLY hope that there isn't a bunch of huge guys running around punching people like Brick from Borderlands.

Why punch when you hit the with the butt of your gun?

It might not be practical, but man is it ever satisfying to punch someone directly in the face. :angel:

I haven't punched anyone since Middle School....I'll be 30 next year.

to honest i dont reall care about all the fancy melee attacks as long as you can do something to [censored] their brains up then i dont care

Ha, same here. Well, I won't be 30, but I haven't punched anyone (seriously anyway) in forever. I meant in video games.

same with me. im a lover not a fighter

Well I am a lover and a fighter. Versatile.

Well we know slide tackles are in the game. I wonder what other goodies that lie inside the pinata of unreleased Brink info.

You guys are saints... I can't recall a single month in which I wasn't involved in a conflict that led to someone throwing punches.
Most of the time I end up joining in after it starts, but I have started a few brawls. I'm not exactly proud of it (mainly cause I tend to get in over my head), but it does tend to happen quite a bit. I just hope the melee in Brink is a bit more than just a bar fight with cooler clothes.

i never fight. im so light i bet a lot of you guys could pick me up and throw me easily lol.

what mirror's edge had..

regarding punching...had no reason to fight for 5 years now need to sign up for some martial arts to get my dose

I'm a bit on the light side too, that's where to "over my head" part comes in. Light and a temper tend to get me into way too much trouble.

I don't hit people outside martial arts.


I like the idea of sprint-sliding into someone's knees to trip them over. (But mids should be best at doing it.)

The idea of Heavies just being able to push over an enemy sounds good. I'd like a good 1st person knockdown mechanic for melee attacks, with only knives doing any substantial damage. I mean, in RL a melee shove wouldn't be more powerful than a bullet, but it would have a higher chance of simply knocking someone over with force. Unless you're talking about shotgun shells and the like. So, a knocked down enemy should be disabled for a second or so while they get up, giving you an opportunity to knife or shoot.

For me, Mirror's Edge had a disappointing combat system. A punch combo, a kick, a different kick, or a different kick. And the disarms.
