Borderlands 2 Reviews & Discussion Thread

Gunzerker for the win! Just a powerhouse of death! Gunzerker + Siren= owned! Me and my buddy play together and it just seems like we are unstoppable together.

Forum oddly doesnt have a discussion thread on this, and im not about to make one but does anyone have Miss Moxxi's Rubi that does over 300 dmg, and is good in the other areas that they'd be willing to sell? I like how it looks but I keep getting a sub-200 damage one ><

[Ghost-Rhayne]

Yeah I'm surprised at the seeming lack of interest in the game. In any case, I'm loving it and will be playing through new game + and new game ++ aswell, so would love to play with other fellow PSUers. I'm level 24 siren at the moment on the first playthrough (the real fun begins on NG+ however!).

Just played it a bit with my brother. We're level 8. Fun game. I die alot more than in others shooters. So I enjoy the added challenge. I haven't played the first and am having a bit of a hard time to get used to the rpg aspect of the game.

[admartian]

This game is alot harder than the first lol.

I thought it was meant to be easier for solo players but got progressively harder with 4 player co-op?

Do you need to play through the first to play the second? story wise that is...

[DarkVincent07]

If you guys/mankind like, I can re-name this to the Borderlands 2 Reviews/Discussion Thread?

PM Me so I make sure I see the response/s

Not at all! The story of the first one is this: You get led by some mysterious woman called Angel to find a legendary vault that apparently has the most amazing treasure ever, and it doesn't. The end. lol

The first game was criticised for having no real narrative other than this flimsy plot to get you from A to B. The game was more about loot and gameplay though. B2 improves upon this vastly.

Borderlands 2 is awesome. Well done Gearbox and well deserved reviews.

@ DarkVincent07

I have no problems with that


I still have yet to open my copy, I'm currently playing Rainbow Moon, and when I'm done I will get stuck into it. I have Fifa 13 this week too, need to juggle my game time.

[DarkVincent07]

Changed the title then

And as a follow up from post #2, I'm yet to start playing. I plan to pick the game up as soon as I am fully recovered coz atm I get a lot of headaches when looking at screens ><

[Soldier 95B]

Yup, loving this game. I have played more of this game in 2 days than I have played Ghost Recon Future Soldier over the fast few months. Addicting....and SO MUCH LOOT!

[Seasons]

I love the game
However, I have some bad news. Today, me and my friend discovered that yesterdays five hour marathon was all for naught. One of our characters, the player 1 character actually, vanished. Into thinn air. We cannot load him, his savefile is simply not there.

We're gonna take another stab at it today, but losing at least five hours of "starting area" materiel the day after we've both decided NOT to roll a lot of extra characters so that we can actually keep interest in this game over the course of multiple characters. However, now, it turned into a tedious catch-up grind, lvl 11 and wonderful loot.

Sigh.

After a few basic, basic tests, we have found that people who pick a different profile than player 1 will solve the save-issue, but we were apparently not the only ones out there.

Just met "Tiny Tina", the 13yr old explosives expert. This girl is the coolest little girl ever! Fo shizzle my nizzle!

[Vulgotha]

She's voiced by the sister in "Hey Ash, whatcha playin?" internet series.

[ps3freak18]

Tiny Tina is by far my favorite character in the game!

[Chille]

Got this from Eurogamer today now I can be his minion in real life!

[DarkVincent07]

That is fucking sick Chille!


Well. my girlfriend - bless her soul - came to visit me today and brought with her BORDERLANDS 2!!!

Sooo happy

I've only played about an hour and a half so but I plan to SMASH it tomorrow. Loving it, the questing, look, skills, graphics - so pretty. Its taking me a while to get used to a FPS on Dualshock 3 just because I've been playing SO MUCH Black Mesa lately haha.

[Nuvian]

Game looks good, my biggest issue with the first game was the inconsistent frames per second (on the PS3 at least), is it smoother this time around?

[Vulgotha]

For the most part. But even my monster PC will have framerate issues near end at the Bunker (this isn't a spoiler). It's kind of weird.

I mean my GPU didn't go above 60% so it wasn't that. And I doubt this game totally takes control of my quad.. Could be that it maxed out the two cores it WAS using, though. At any rate, its pretty stable up until the absolute craziest parts of the game.

[ps3freak18]

Got to Lynchwood last night and wow what a difficulty jump. It was a little jarring to be honest but it is nice to have a little challenge.

[Ghost-Rhayne]

Siren specced with helios and ruin for phaselock is amazing, fire, corrosion, electricity and slag nearby enemies. I can't wait to get converge so it sucks all enemies in. Love my siren.

[gangsta_795]

Just a quick question. Is the story connected to the first game?

EDIT - Just went through the thread. It seems they're not too related except being set in the same world? My bad.
