' Wrote:The only thing I find against the PC version for Borderlands 1, is the need for Gamespy to MP... pain.
That and modders cheat so much, no validation whatsoever.
Did not need gamespy for co-op. I never play these game MP against others. As like every other game out there a few OP set-ups apear, and then that is all you see. Plus the hackers go rampant.
As for BL2 oh hell yeah i will get it. Just hope finishing boss is better. I found the last boss easier then the climb up to it.
' Wrote:Do you mean Clawmerax or the 'story end boss'? Story boss was easy, Clawmerax or however you spell it is a god damned nightmare.
Unless of course you 'super jump' out of the elevator up to it (keep jumping while the shield at the top is still active and occasionally you'll get launch/clipped through) after respawning while your teammate is desperately trying to run away from it. Falling down from the air lead by a hail of bullets getting the killing blow with a 7 damage 'critical' melee hit was one of my happiest moments ever.
Also best 'loadout' for killing Crawmerax is Soldier and Mordecai simply because they can get a mod that gives them regenerative health and ammo.
the "story end boss" was easy. I just sat there pumping missiles at it, and going for cover to reload and repeat until poof! He was soooo huge it was easy to hit him.
' Wrote:I will say the thing that makes borderlands shine is the co-op. I'm not saying they did everything right in that regard. But they did get all the basics nice. And my friend and I have had some great times with that game.
Like when we found ourselves surrounded by a horde of angry psycho midgets. I did the most logical thing which was to scream loudly, spin in a circle, and fire off ~400 rounds from my machine gun.
Or go "Western Shootout" Mode where I refuse to use anything but a revolver. Comically enough I was sniping better with my scope-less revolver than my friend with his 2.5x scope.
Although bird is OP. Nerf Bird. Insta-kill during duels.
No one touches my bird, b****.
Bird <3
I've played BL on PS3 with a friend (though I have it on PC as well), he was a soldier and I was with my Hunter, awesome combo especially when going against loads of high hp mobs. While the soldier is good and all, I just love stealing kills by just heatshot'n ALL THE THINGS, or releasing my bird.
Maxed out bird is just awesome.
Bird <3
Edit: Oh yeah, that was the only thing I didn't like about BL, the end boss. When I first saw it I wtf'd and Q_Q'd, but then I saw how easy it was. Meh. That and the fact that in the end, story-wise you don't get **** for doing all that.
So 6.5 hours to go until game released in Canada where i am. Anyone else got it pre-ordered, and down loaded just waiting to play?
I pre-ordered mine 2 weeks ago from greenman gaming for $36.00 canadian. If looking to buy, go there. They have a discount, and a voucher code for another 15% off that gets it to what i paid.
Cannot wait to start duel weilding machine guns.
