[ALL] Borderlands 2

[jms493]

I love playing as Sniper Zero. Go deception a mile away, get super bonuses to snipers and critical hits, take out the biggest thing there is with one headshot.

Yeah I put all my skill points into critical hit bonus right away.

the powers dont seem all tha exciting to me in any of the classes. siren just suspends a guy in air so you can shoot him.

the turret is boring as fuck cause you just lay it down.

i have not tried zero, but it doesnt seem like a realistic option to have stealth active for a few seconds. some of the battles i been in you would get your ass handed to you as soon as the stealth wore off.

the gunzerker actually seems like it would be cool and useful. duel guns...how can u go wrong in this game

 

[CCBrink]

Yeah, but what's the point when you can only do that for ONE enemy? Most of the time you're surrounded by enemies and his special ability only last what, four or five seconds? At least with Axton I can lay down a turret and gather myself for quite some time. I'm thinking of trying out the Gunzerker as well.

The closer the countdown is the 0, the more damage will be inflicted. The real key to being successful with Zero is getting those critical hit shots with the sniper though. I'm only level 15, so I can't wait until he is even more deadly :lalala:

Zero seems like he gets more fun to play as the higher you get. I did some co-op with him and he wasn't too effective at a lower level.

I love the turret though, can't wait until I can use the scorched Earth skill.

Mass Effect 3 was mine before this came out. Bioshock: Infinite could have taken the crown, until it got delayed to February.

By that logic, why play as Maya? I think she's a fantastic character though.

The best thing you can do is take a look at all of the skills in Zero's trees to see what you can do with his decoy/cloak ability and pick the tree you like. Then you can get an idea of how you should play with him as your character.

One of the special powers (I believe), if you so choose, is that you can keep extending your invisibility as long as you are killing enemies while invisible.

Borderlands 2
Sleeping Dogs
Walking Dead
Max Payne 3


Those are on my GOTY list right now.

I want to get in on Borderlands 2 for the 360. Looks like I will need some online cohorts to show me the ropes since the single player version appears to reward you at lesser levels.

Yeah Sleeping Dogs is really a good game. Max Payne while really gritty and decent story....it is a point and shoot game....nothing else.

Borderlands 2 will be up there but it will have to compete with AC3 and Halo 4.

A Borderlands 2 Reset Bug Is Making Players Less Badass

There is a rather nasty reset bug out there that seems to be hitting certain players of Borderlands 2.

In Borderlands 2, players earn badass tokens for completing certain challenges. Tokens can also be spent on skins and upgrades. As reproduced above by YouTube user RyogaWanderer, players affected by the bug are finding their badass totals reset, while the challenges they have completed remain marked completed—meaning that the players whose totals have dropped can't re-earn those lost tokens. Items and upgrades purchased with badass tokens are also vanishing, without returning the tokens to the players' totals.

Players on the game's forums are reporting that this has happened on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC versions of the game.

Gearbox community manager Chris Faylor wrote on the forums that Gearbox is looking into a fix. In the meantime, players have suggested a variety of tips for avoiding the bug, which seems to relate to profile save corruption, on 360 and on PS3.

We've asked Gearbox for comment and will update if we hear back.

The powers for each gets more and more useful with your skill points. Like with Maya you can suspend one person in the air but you can also have a black hole effect that sucks in everyone in the vicinity, or it creates an explosion that deals fire, corrosion damage to everyone; or a kill skill that when you kill someone in the phaselock it releases health orbs. Every skills gets major upgrades around level 18 and only get stronger

And I'm backing up my characters just in case.

Also, here's the video mentioned so you can avoid what he did.

One of the causes also appears to come form playing splitscreen using the same profile for both characters.
