[tootall4la]

Looking to see if any of you guys/girls are enjoying the game..your thoughts on the game .. Looking to discuss and play with fellow members

So far I'm loving it .. Coming from the First Borderlands it's hands down fun., who doesn't enjoy 4 player coop play

My PSN Id: tootall4la

Let's Play!!! Lol

[theronin]

Ya I went to the midnight release here in sac. Love it so far, only gripe is that I wasn't paying attention and wasted my 2 gold keys at level 9....:(

[tootall4la]

Hahaha you have to save those gold keys until you are a Very High Rank to get the pretty powerful weapons...I'm Lvl 16 right now.. So far it's been an all nighter for me today

[theronin]

you don't say

[tootall4la]

Money Glitch!!!!

[ZilviaKid]

bosses are artificially difficult and boring

its not as fun as the first game

[LoneStarSilvia]

Whaaaaaaat? I think it's better, especially the guns, there's some awesome guns in this one. I will agree the game seems harder than the first but just adds to the challenge. Plus there feels like there's any actual story behind this one and it's a ton funnier.

[theronin]

to everyone who says BL2 is better, please tell me your class and level in BL1.

there are awesome guns in the first one, they just didn't do everything like they do in BL2. You actually had to know how to play...

[LoneStarSilvia]

I was soldier in the first one, IIRC I was level 35ish? And that was on PC, I previously had it on PS3 also. I had plenty of time to play while I was deployed. I don't get the "You actually had to know how to play comment", it's the same thing as the 2nd, it isn't super complicated. Carry a badass gun of each element and use them as advertised. Snipe from long range, then when they come running in, switch to assault rifle + turret.

I don't get what you guys don't like about this one? Details?

[AwesomeO]

playing this for 2 days already! this game is sooo much fun!

[tootall4la]

On the quest for Orange Weapons!!

[AwesomeO]

there is a way to get alot of golden keys you know... ^_^ just saying

[GSXRJJordan]

I played the first one through twice, loved it. I tend to enjoy sniper roles when properly implemented, and really enjoy the Ninja class in BL2. Humor is similarly good in this one too, graphics are better (slightly), pacing is fantastic, and the storyline seems fuller.

The boss fights are more difficult (especially as a ninja), and I think I'd like to play a gunzerker to see the difficulty there for even-level mobs and bosses. The saving grace is the resurrection system, and not having to re-start every boss encounter if you die.

With the limited amount of time I have to play vid games, having a game that I can sit down with for an hour and enjoy myself, then get up is GREAT.

Do tell sir. I thought you could only get them if you pre-ordered.

[tootall4la]

There's the Following Glitches:

Money Glitch
Weapon Glitch
Golden Key Glitch

And I've done em all..
I've been up several days playing .. Cant stop

[LoneStarSilvia]

I need to know about those, but I'd be willing to be XBox will punish those who take advantage of it.

Edit: Ah well I guess I'm assed out, I didn't pre-order. I have some great in game guns that I earned, but some of the purple guns in the youtube video looks pretty feakin cool.

[VROOOM]

I love this game, played the first one and got my guy to level 59. just ended the story portion of Borderlands 2. it was really fun. it seems there is much more to the story though.

i just found out about this today and think its really cool. in the game there is an NPC name Michael Mamaril, he gives you weapons when you talk to him. well he is an actual person, i guess he died at 22 of cancer and his friend wrote Gearbox and asked if they would make Claptrap say something about him in the game. well Claptrap does talk about him and they made him into an NPC. its nice to see a compnay actually care about thier fans.

all in one :naughty: with the golden keys :P

[HyperTek]

man i hated the first one, but at the time i just finished fallout 3 which i liked, so i felt like bl1 was a copy.

[theronin]

I just wish I could port in my lvl 69 siren from the first one. ;)

[ZilviaKid]

i miss grinding out crawmerax

[tootall4la]

True Vault Hunter Mode is where it's really at!!

[LoneStarSilvia]

What's so special about it? I heard you unlock it after the first play through. Is it just harder or something?

[VROOOM]

yeah, it starts the game over but at level 30ish. you get alot better loot and the enemies are much harder.

[AwesomeO]

a little poll here:

which character have you selected and why?

i have selected Zero because i always liked the sniper class.

discuss

[theronin]

I went with Zero cause I liked my melee based siren from bl1. Imo sniper zero is a huge waste of his melee burst potential.

[theronin]

i miss grinding out crawmerax



Bah I could never hit that spot on his back. I could always get him down but couldn't find the right ricochet point to finish him off

[LoneStarSilvia]

Went with Axton because the turret is the damn tits. Saved my ass a few times when I get knocked down, and it's nice for when you're deep into an area running low on ammo. Plus I just unlocked the missiles perk, OMG it's so cool. I can't wait to get the 2 turrets deal, then the perk where one turret actually has 2 guns. 4 x turrets, overkill!

[tootall4la]

I went with the Snip lol.. Salvador and his Gunzerker mode, because I like the dual wield gunning and basically shoot shit up.. The extended Gunzerker perk and replenishing ammo make it a very fun character to play with.. I still can't understand why he has such Stubby legs it's hilarious they made him soo short

[treeafodo]

I've been playing as Zero. I'm my very far into the game because I'm so busy with work and school. Only level 12 but so far I'm really liking it.

I'm trying to learn to not get attached to guns too much because by the time you find a good one a better one will be there soon. So far I like it a lot better than Borderlands 1, I have no idea why.

[Z33dori]

i picked zero thinking i could just go out and hack and slash with the sword, but you cant :(

but i have enough perks to lay some dudes out with a few melee hits.

You most certainly can. Zeros melee burst potential is huge.

[AwesomeO]

heck yeah you can slash and hack anything you see...
but i like being a sneaky sneak just running around the whole map

[LoneStarSilvia]

I bet that's pretty convenient. It's annoying having to battle your way through one side of the map to the other, get to your objective, just for it to get set on the other side of the map again and having to battle your way back through.

yeah exactly! lol first time it happend to me is when i was doing the save roland guy mission. (the military guy)

i literarly just ran through the whole map all the way to the boss without killing anything....
with that said, this method is more for faster mission than leveling. BUT for that you can just farm.... simple strategy that i always use

[ZilviaKid]

Bah I could never hit that spot on his back. I could always get him down but couldn't find the right ricochet point to finish him off

dude, fuck that back spot, i hundred percent agree

[atom]

dude, fuck that back spot, i hundred percent agree

I pretty much mastered cheesing craw with that arcing rocket launcher from the safe spot. So cheap.

Anyways another zero player here.

[theronin]

well referencing my first post i emailed gearbox about the gold keys, and miraculously they responded to me and gifted me my 2 gold keys back! im pretty stoked! my boys and i pretty much play every night from about 11 pm pst to 1-2 am on 360, if anyone wants to play with us hit me up on xbl.

gamertag ronine

as of right now we have a zero, commando, and siren.

i honestly don't know how anyone could beat him without utilizing the "spot"

i also read that there is a rocket launcher with a big enough blast aoe that allows you to basically splash off one of his back spines and hit his crit spot. i never killed him once, and it still bothers me. i might load that shit up n give it another go. any idea where u got this arcing rocket launcher?

[ZilviaKid]

you dont need the spot, just better shields lol

[LoneStarSilvia]

Made it to the Bunker, holy hell. I need some buddies or more leveling up.

protip, stay on that bottom level. it cant hit you down there

[LoneStarSilvia]

I made it past that guy, thankfully there's a ton of cover and I had a mean ass rocket launcher. Good times.

[theronin]

Beat the warrior last night without any real problems, looking forward to vault hunter mode. Gimme those oranges baby!!!

[uraks]

Borderlands 2 is the best game i played all year plus they broke the world Guinness record for most weapons in a game lol....

[LoneStarSilvia]

Trying out this new chick. Cool that they pumped out a DLC so fast.

Is it free? If not it was ready at launch.

[LoneStarSilvia]

Free if you pre-ordered. Gotta pay if you didn't.

[hulkster_s13]

Wayloner on ps3 If any one wants to add me. I've got a lvl 50 commando starting on 2.5 mode soon and every other character to at least 37-40 even the new chick. I play just about everyday. Work is slow lol

[LoneStarSilvia]

I wish I had that much time to max out. My main Commando guy is only 37, and with the new chick I'm only 15 after leeching off so high level friends. BTW have you guys heard about the new "Crawermax" available during the 2nd playthrough?

Ya I've also heard their are videos on yt of some dude beating him in under 2 seconds. Search terramorphous 2 second.

[treeafodo]

I haven't had any time to play this at all the last little bit. Still I think level 9. Work and school are crazy and have me booked all the time.

[SochBAT]

I went Zer0 because who doesn't like ninjas? On my first playthrough, I stuck with sniper rifles and pistols, mainly Jakobs because they're the tits.

A third way though, I switched to Bloodshed melee. It's stupid fun playing "connect the dots" with enemies. The last portion, I switched to Cunning. GOOD FUCKING GOD. I'm unstoppable. Stupid low cooldown, you can throw 5 kunais with random elementals 5 times per Deception and your hologram bursts electricity when depleted. 15 seconds later, you do it again.

[sw20>>s14]

I want to kill myself when my gf uses the screaming SMG... -_-

[theronin]

Anyone else ready for the first wave of dlc? Hits us at midnight PST. Bring on the booty baby!!!!

[LoneStarSilvia]

Sah-weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! I'm ready!
