Borderlands : A New Beginning

[TeflonDonny]

This game is freaking insane. Who all plays on the PS3? Once I get decent we need to roll!

Add me to your friends list. I play every other night.

Crawmerax is a joke. My cousin and I, along with a random, tried to take him down last night. After dying twenty times we gave up.

After rumors have been swirling for a while now, Gearbox officially announced today that a FOURTH DLC pack is coming next month. Woot!

Now I just hope that the other rumour is true that they will also be releasing a GOTY type edition of the game with all the DLC, possibly coinciding with, or shortly after, the release of the new DLC. I would gladly buy the PS3 version and play through this awesome game again.

Just rented this from Gamefly. Game should be here in the morning. Anything I should know before starting?

game feels kind of blah so far. i am just at the beginning doing these starter missions. I am on the one where you find the guys food then go buy a grenade. Very early on, but more turned off then turned on. everytime i pick up a weapon it equips so i have to pause to the menu and change guns back around again, kind of annoying.

I chose the sniper guy and that was a mistake cause its not fun trying to target enemies moving towards you. you can target 1 from a distance then they all bum rush you. I find myself just backpedaling while firing my pistol at them while they rush me

oh well, still early so i hope it picks up

I think it is a coop game IMO. Finding all the cool guns is awesome. I am not sure why it auto equips.......thats wrong. Didn't happen in my game. Some of the Monsters are cool. Leveling is always fun.

But again....its a coop game. I imagine it being blah also by myself.

I believe if you hold down the button to pick up an item it auto-equips it...think you need to just tap the button when picking things up. I may have that backwards, it's been a while since I've played this.

 

[Maynard]

i will try that...thanks for the tip

it feels like it would be better as a coop game...to bad nobody is playing it

 

[wingsfan77]

plus the more people you have in a game the better the weapon drops are

It definitely is awesome co-op. No one is playing because it's old a shit now. I'll be all over it again when the new DLC comes out though.

If you need help somewhere I'll jump on.

 

[Twigg4075]

Looks like i will in fact be replaying through this awesome game on the PS3! Woot!

 

[IamMedellin]

oh shit...

..n Need sum help with Moxxxi

 

[Buzzman]

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

 

[KNUBB]

I'll buy the game of the year edition

 

[Primetime]

I started with a Hunter and made the switch to Soldier when my roommate wanted to start playing too. The scorpio turret absolutely demolishes the bloodwing. I'm mostly a shotgun guy too so it fits the soldier much better.

 

[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.

 

[wingsfan77]

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.

 

[Maynard]

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?

 

[BazookaJoe5]

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%
