The great bug list of BRINK : Othor Games

» Fri May 27, 2011 9:22 am

Well since there's no reason in making so many threads about the same thing (bugs that is), Lets just put them all in one thread.

Post any bug you dont find in the list and ill update it.

Steam/Client Bugs:

Steam crashes at start up
Brink will open up to a blue screen
Client/Brink crashes at start up
Game will crash at loading screen
game crashed while leaving was loading (was in window mode and was alt-tabbing to reply to a thread)

Visual Bugs :

smoke is displayed as a solid non translucent texture (solid Color).
Grid lines over every texture in the game. Thread here: Graphical Bug
particles in game are surrounded by a solid blue color.
shoot or an explosion goes off, black boxes everywhere.
blue tint on your screen while in any outdoor maps
some doors that have been hacked open will not shown to be open but you can walk through
Black bars when change resolution
Corrupted font bitmaps at 2560x1600 screen resolution

Sound Bugs:

No sound at all
No sound but still have "ambient" noise

Single Player :

Engineer mines will not affect bots
AI is just terrible

Multi-Player:

Constant lag even on low ping servers (no clue what it could be)
Server will say its full when it says 15/16 (tried this on private game)
Invisible comrades
Unable to connect to friends Co-Op Games
Can't play anything greater than 1 star Challenges Cooperatively Online

General Gameplay:

Turrents cant detect bots or humans that are right in front of them sometimes
Left ctrl unmaping every key
Terrible Performance with a variety of ATI/AMD and some Nvidia Cards
Keypad enter not mapable
Controls revert to default

Other bugs:

In challenges, after you beat the challenges, you're checking your XP, Unlocks, such, then you can click on the start next challenge or just exit to main menu, on more then one occasion it would crash trying to go back to main menu
Apparently you can use a Heavy's equipment with a Light body structure to some degree )review comment 13 below)
Trying to bind numpad ENTER key ends up binding the other ENTER key on the keyboard, making the numpad key unusable.
Server browser brings the framerate to about 2 from a solid FPS elsewhere (probably already bugged).

Mine crashes at start up, however steam does not. It is just the game, not sure if that's what you meant but that's what happens. You load up the game, gets to the loading screen then it crashes.

Graphical bug for the Radeon 48XX series cards (especially running in CrossFire mode): Grid lines over every texture in the game. Thread here: http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1187595-graphics-issue-lines-everywhere/

Blame your cards or the crossfire, I got 4890 and its perfectly fine. SLI / Crossfire always gave troubles

In mine all the smoke is displayed as a solid non translucent texture (solid Color).

Most times my custom character looks completely different in multiplayer matches than the way I set him, or he's the wrong build type, or starts with the wrong weapon.

Keypad enter not mapable. A lot of us are having the same problem. This is not good for SD, did they only beta test consoles?

» Fri May 27, 2011 7:11 am

Add this to the list since I hunted for the crash itself. In challenges, after you beat the challenges, you're checking your XP, Unlocks, such, then you can click on the start next challenge or just exit to main menu, on more then one occasion it would crash trying to go back to main menu and now I have to start the next challenge then exit to main menu to hopefully bypass crash which it has every time since I started doing that.

One time I had a crash in character customizations, although I haven't been able to recreate the incident.

I just discovered one I haven't heard yet. Apparently you can use a Heavy's equipment with a Light body structure to some degree, probably. I was playing as a heavy with the gattling gun as my default primary weapon, then decided to switch things up a bit and change to a light body structure. Completely forgetting to change weapons, I hopped in a solo freeplay match and I was playing as the Light with the Gattling gun. Of course this was quite fun having the mobility of the Light while maneuvering around dodging bullets firing this mini-gun, but of course it can be quite a problem.

Updated again, and ty everyone for posting bugs you find ^^

and also reminding me why i hate to write Html, lol

» Fri May 27, 2011 6:40 am

I use three GTX 570's and the first one is kept at around 95% load and about 94 degrees C. while the others are unused. so it's not using my second and third cards in SLI

a lot of people with nvidia cards (usually 4xx/5xx series) are getting openGL crashes
here's the dedicated thread to it as well:

Maxx - the weapon thing i thought as well, but when you're custing weapons from the main menu, you have to click the radio button - When you mouse over the gun, don't click - when the button expands move to the upper left where theres a gray circle and click it - now its the default starter.

» Fri May 27, 2011 7:55 am

Both of these happened to me on PC:

- Characters dissapearing / Controls revert to default. Not sure how it happened, can't guide you for steps to reproduce.

- Severe stutter/lag while browsing server list.

- Left CTRL unbinds all keys. (source: http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1188101-controls-messed-up/)

I feel like this should be a sticky.

» Fri May 27, 2011 5:25 pm

I feel like this should be a sticky.

I feel like either SplashDamage or Bethesda should post THEIR list of known bugs as a sticky to let us know what THEY know. It would greatly stop the same 10 threads/minute routine.

that was the reason why i created this thread, but eh. People are still doing it.

Ill also update the thread in a bit after this match of CSS

Instead of Left control resetting all my keys. If I DON"T hold down left control all my letter keys are a random number 0-9. If im holding down L control everythign works like it should....

Yeah Turret not seeing an enemy right in front of it is very annoying..

» Fri May 27, 2011 10:16 am

The sound bug is annoying. It seems to happen consistently on the resort level for me (? - the last one in the story arc for the security forces).

I also had a bug in the objectives challenge mode where all of the enemies were not visible (they could see me, and others could see them, but I couldn't).
