Borderlands : A New Beginning

[Twigg4075]

if I buy it on the ps3, you going to play with me Twigg?

Hell yeah!

I'll buy the game of the year edition

Sweet. Then we only need one more for a full party.

if I can get a good deal on it maybe I'll pick it up for the PS3...I didn't have anyone to play it with on 360 by the time I got it.

starting to really enjoy this game now that i am getting some good guns and have a better feel for the game. I am on the mission to kill nine toes so its pretty early.

Level 6 is where i am.
how high should i expect to level up in 1 play thru?

I believe I was in my early 30s when I finished it the first time with my Hunter.

[Maynard]

what does it mean in the weapons stats....under Damage it flashes 15 then x9
I see this on alot of my shottys....is that like 15 damage, but times 9 for critical hits?

Im not sure if its critical or what cause down below that it will also say +50% critical damage....15x9 is alot more than +50%

That I don't know...I always wondered the same thing but nobody seemed to know the answer.

I'm with you. My cousin and I could never figure that shit out.

I'd check gamefaqs though Maynard. There is a wealth of information about that game over there. There are still tons of people that play it religiously.

I just wish they would at least give a release date for the new DLC. They said September which we are obviously in now.

I hope Borderlands doesn't get lost in the shuffle now that Gearbox is balls deep in Duke Nukem.

a friend from another site said this

The x9 means the shotty is putting out 9 "shots" at a time. 1 round of ammo, but 9 individual shots that each have a chance to hit and each do 15 dmg.

That makes sense.

I really wish this damn DLC would release.

[Buzzman]

Twigg are you really going to buy th4th DLC and then get ti fro ps3 as well?

What's the coolest weapons you guys have had. I picked up an orange incendiary sniper at level 24ish and I've been using it ever since. I'm now a level 38 I believe. It does 296 initial damage, has 4x incendiary damage, a 1.7 fire rate and 9 bullets in the clip. The think dominate all and the incendiary damage does about 600-1000 damage every time I hit someone.

The only other really cool one I have is a pistol that never runs out of ammo because it regenerates as soon as I shoot. It does somewhere between 70-80 damage and has a 5.7 fire rate. The clip in it is something like 42 rounds and it really doesn't matter because you can reload in less than a second.

at first i was turned off by the hunter and using the sniper weapons. But now i am loving it. The incendiary snipers guns are awesome fun. I have the snipers and shottys up to level 2 and im trying to get my smg and assault rifles up

of course i have just discovered the rocket launcher car and that thing is sick. I almost feel like i am cheating by blowing guys up with this thing. Its no contest so far

the bouncing betties are fun too.

Biggest issue i have right now is not being able to carry enough stuff at one time. I dont have anywhere to store anything. I see there is a DLC that gives you a storage area, but i am not paying to be able to store shit

do the missions with for the clap traps.

Fuck to the yes!

[Maynard]

do the missions with for the clap traps.

just did my first and got 3 extra slots.

one thing that kind of gets annoying at times is having to always kill the same guys over and over. Its cool that guys respawn in areas, but i wish they didnt respawn on your way out of an area. once its clear it should stay clear unless you travel back in for whatever reason.
