Brink Dedicated Server FAQ is Here

We've had a lot of questions about the dedicated servers for the PC version of Brink lately, so we've thrown together answers to the most common questions out there. The big news is that the dedicated server files will be freely available, so anyone will be able to put up servers for Brink.


Before we dive into the rest of the stuff, as noted over on Bethblog, you'll be able to pre-load Brink on Steam prior to release. We'll let you know once we have more information in regards to timeframes and such.


And now, on to the questions:


What is the Brink Standalone Dedicated Server?
The Brink Standalone Dedicated Server allows anyone to run multiplayer servers for the PC version of Brink. As the server is standalone, it does not require a full version of Brink to be installed and is completely free.


Where will I be able to get the Brink Standalone Dedicated Server?
The Brink Standalone Dedicated Server will be available for download via Steam prior to release. Once the server is available, you can simply browse to the Tools tab in your Steam client and grab it from there.


Will I be able to run several instances of the Brink Standalone Dedicated Server on a single machine?
Yes. The Brink Standalone Dedicated Server comes with several premade bat files that automatically define different ports for each instance. It’s also possible for you to set your own, custom ports.


In terms of available game options, how customizable will the Brink Standalone Dedicated Server be?
The Brink Standalone Dedicated Server includes several different game configuration files covering all of the regular game modes, including campaign, stopwatch, objective, and co-op challenges. In addition, there are a variety of server-side commands available that allow you to further customize your server, including team sizes, time limits and overtime, warm-up rules, friendly fire, voice chat, availability of Command Post buffs, rank restrictions, number of bots, and password.


I represent a Game Server Provider. How can my company offer servers for Brink?
Easy! Once the Standalone Dedicated Server is available on Steam, you’ll be able to start getting Brink game servers up for your customers. We’re currently aiming to have the server files available before release so you’ll be all set when the game comes out.

number of bots??? like pop bots or are they going to be computer AI?
 
I've been looking at this game and it seems to a more in-depth multiplayer version of Borderlands which I liked quite a bit.
 
Not yet, unfortunately. It's looking a lot better than Homefront, so far.
 
Im not digging the game. Played a early demo, its too run down. I dont like the way the game plays overall. It seems like Bulletstorm to me for some reason. I'm not sure. You may have a different opinion but, to me its a terrible game. :)
 
Early demo? Not all early demo's are finished, unless you're talking about a pre-release demo?

Be more specific :D.

that's not saying much, HF was garbage.


Hopefully brink will not fall into the same traps the cursed e tother FPS series. (like HF) Basically not copying COD.

Lets wait till it comes out, I would love to beta that game; possibly more than I would love to deflower your sister :P

Homefront's gameplay wasn't the best, but the support was better. Brink looks good on both fronts. Let's hope it's good.
