THE NUMBERS,
IN THE OPEN.

Brinewater is built with the people who play it. Everything here is public: how many of you come, how the game runs on your machines, and what you asked for. Counts only, nothing about any one person.

Loading the numbers…

New update, 10 November

Street takeovers, every night at a different spot, plus the fun pass: takedowns with god mode off, the speedbreaker, a police radio that talks, heat that stays with your car or with you, and cops on foot who work as a team. More on the front page. The 8 November update (smarter police) is below.

A white supercar doing donuts in smoke at Washington and Tucker at night, racers parked round it and a crowd on the corner

Street takeovers

Every night at 10 PM: Grand and Florissant, Washington Avenue or Gravois, a different spot each night. Find the 🔥 on the map, watch the donuts, or drive in and take your turn before the police come.

A crowd on a downtown corner at night, waving and filming as a car spins

The crowd

People line the corners filming on their phones, and scatter when the sirens come.

Chases worth winning

Takedowns with god mode off, a bounty on every wreck, and escapes that pay. The radio calls the chase as it happens.

The speedbreaker

Bullet time at the wheel, refilled by speed and drifting, and your rams hit harder while it's on.

Heat that sticks

Wanted levels stay with your car or with you, and there's an impound lot and prices for bribes, resprays and new cars.

Cops on foot as a team

From three stars, officers hold, flank and push. Armour and first aid are out on the street.

Out of an upturned car

You climb out onto the road beside it instead of getting stuck inside.

A car with its rear bumper knocked off, dark steel where it was

Wrecks look like wrecks

Dark steel where a bumper or lid came off, on every car.

Smarter police

More of Most Wanted's chase AI: they crash a third as often, come after you off-road, ram to finish a box, and lose you when you get behind them. Pursuit breakers at the QuikTrip canopies.

A tougher car

It takes 2.5× less damage, no god mode needed. Spray 'n' Pray fixes and repaints it.

Street racers

A racer you take down stays put, never wears your car and colour, and never pops into view.

SIX STARS, the trailer

One man against the Army downtown: the trucks, the fire teams, the tank.

The military is coming

At six stars the police drive off and the Army's trucks come down Market Street.

Off the trucks

Out of the cab and over the tailgate, then they rally and kneel.

Fire teams

They bound from cover to cover while the others keep your head down.

Take cover

Q or RB into cover: slide, pop up, blind fire, dash to the next.

The tank

A 60-tonne Abrams that fires real shells and flattens cars.

Knock it out

A rocket into it and the crew bail out of the hatches.

Drones overhead

They stay on you through the fight.

Bullet time

Slow motion, a six-star survival timer and a card of what you took down.

Drones in your face

At two stars both police drones come down to a few feet over your head, one on each side of you, and stay in front of the camera.

The gang pulls on the cops

An armed gang member near a pursuit has a 30% chance to draw on the police. The cops shoot first, then take cover.

Rain stops at the bridge

Rain, hail and snow no longer fall through bridges and overpasses.

Spray n Pray

Pay 'n' Spray is now Spray n Pray: the door comes down, paint hisses in the dark, and you drive out a new colour. The locals use it too.

The cops hit Bar:PM

A police SUV goes into the front of the bar on South Broadway. Asked by u/HAI_ZEV.

A busy Loop

Delmar's pavements full at every quality setting.

New traffic turns

Every car, bus and cruiser turns in an arc from the stop line into its lane.

Cruise Night, every night

The Lindbergh cruise is on the map all day and opens at 8 PM. A pack of 6 to 10 rolls with you to the lot.

Police on foot

Officers run facing where they go and aim at a walk.

The BearCat, done right

SLMPD livery, no torn panels, and a hitbox that is the truck itself. A Charger into it at 150 km/h.

South County

Ted Drewes, the Promenade lot, Lindbergh.

Survive I-64

The highway run, on-ramp to exit. Asked by u/BovaFett74.

RATF*G

Wall after wall downtown. Asked by u/TheOneWithoutPorn.

Over the river

The East Side at night, and Pop's.

Your first minute

Downtown in a Charger: drive to the Arch.
