Orange Crush Rush posted:Naw that poo poo's way overdone. Just have Claptrap try to hack into the New-U Network to re-activate Roland's Account data, then have Claptrap gently caress it up in typical Claptrap fashion and all the New-U stations in Pandora start pumping out a mass army of hostile Roland clones, that terrorize Pandora all while yelling "It's like Christmas!" and "Critical Bitch!" Oh man, this would be loving glorious. I'd love to see that, it'd be chaos.

I'm hoping for DLC that lets you go to Hyperion's space station and gently caress poo poo up on there. That'd be a nice way to finish off Hyperion once and for all.

So I found and finished the Moonshiners side quest in The Dust... it actually has a decent reward. Of course this can only be done after Mordecai/Bloodwing is complete, since he's one of the two choices for turn-in.

So I noticed pretty quickly that Zer0 doesn't start panting while sprinting like the other characters. Figured it was a little odd, but no big deal. Then I noticed he only has three fingers per hand.

Insert name here posted:I'm pretty sure it's actually a moon base because (really early game spoilers but putting it in tags just in case)when you first arrive in Sanctuary and replace the power core the base starts bombing the place and Davis calls it a moonshot blitz and later when you rescue Roland he shouts "watch out lunar reinforcements" when the base starts sending more loaders at you. If you look reeaal close, the moon spins behind the station. Very slightly but it's there. The station probably just orbits the moon instead of the planet.

That person didn't die, but everyone responded like I'd solved the puzzle for some reason. I turned around to find someone else dead beneath the corrosive cloud from my Siren ability.

I am liking the vehicle physics over the previous version's game, if only for the fact that the whole engine preventing vehicle flips tends to make for some pretty retarded spins and ramps. Also, on the subject of vehicles, is there a major reason people don't like the mouse-driven Halo-style steering? The front gun is very good for strafing runs, which seems to be the best way to go about vehicular combat in BL2.

The game is on three consoles and it needs to control well on each. A WASD style on controller would be crap. It probably just made it easier to port that way.

Personally, I find the mouse-driven steering to be uncommon enough that, even after 30 hours, I still occasionally catch myself trying to steer with WASD keys. Also, there are times where I'd like to be able to look and steer in two different directions. I don't think mouse-driven steering is terrible, though. It would be nice if we were given the option of switching between mouse-steering and WASD-steering. Also, the handbrake should be on the "jump" (typically spacebar) key, not the loving grenade key.

Claptrap's entire life is an empty and pathetic existence, and he's just smart enough to realize that himself. If I sound pleased about this, it's only because my programmers made this my default tone of voice! I'm actually quite depressed!

I think I just encountered a really awful bug. A few days ago I was playing co-op in True Vault Hunter mode before I had actually beaten the first playthrough on my character. Fast forward to today, I'm in TVH now, playing solo. I occasionally get the popup asking if I want to skip quests that I've already completed and I always select "no". I decide to take a break after getting back to the relocated Sanctuary and picking up a bunch of side quests. Welp, I just loaded my game and about half of the quests that I just picked up are marked as complete and gone from my active quests. In addition, the story progress skipped from the beginning of the Wildlife Preserve straight to the missions in Opportunity. I think the game somehow decided that I want to skip every quest that I had completed in co-op.

Getting back to "The Bee", the legendary shield; I have just received a second one from Hunter Hellquist, the Hyperion Truth Network DJ, so unless it is a complete fluke, he is the go to source for retardedly overpowered shields. It took me 20 or so kills but it's pretty fast to do if you just save and quit then reload since he is close to the respawn point.

slovach posted:Yup, Roland didn't think to wear any armor or a shield or anything while we go to raid the most dangerous place imaginable. Jack just hid in the room the whole time and then welp, one shot, dead. I don't think he was hiding in the room, it looked like he teleported/"digitized" in behind him. He was still in the process when he fired. Also, I like the idea about Jack being too rich for the New-U station to work. He's just greedy enough that he wouldn't give anybody a chance to get a freebie. Edit: Oh, and to continue to bitch a little more (since it's one of my favorite things to do), when Mordecai gives you Roland's chest code, it was this big sappy "He'd want you to have it" moment. My chest was full of really, really lovely green and white shields. Uhh.. Thanks, Roland. Maybe if you had thought to carry one of these when you were heading to the fight, you wouldn't have died in the first loving place!

Just found this in one of the first outhouses in New Game+ mode. It shoots a slow moving, pink ball that explodes acid. The radius of the explosion is ridiculous, probably something like 20-30 metres. Everything in the area gets covered in acid.

I had planned on going through this game as a dual revolver badass, but most of the revolvers I'm finding don't put out a whole lot more damage than the autoloaders with way higher capacity. How far do I have to get before I start seeing more revolvery revolvers? Is primarily using revolvers even viable?

Maybe if you had thought to carry one of these when you were heading to the fight, you wouldn't have died in the first loving place! Got 4 white pistols that were 3-4 levels below me, thanks buddeh! Although, in a sort of meta-story way, it makes a twisted sort of sense. Roland passes on his treasure to you, which you immediately sell for SLOTS MONEY. Man, pandora's a dark place. Speaking of, on PT2 now and I have straight up not seen a single orange drop aside from the final boss's scripted one. Bout 30% through pt2, with the 4-player setting, as well as farming bosses, and I am literally getting nothing. It's getting kind of annoying that I only really get an upgrade dropping once every 3-4 levels, tops. Still using the rifle that I picked up on first getting to sanctuary at the start of pt2. Ed: Also, am I the only one that got hit way harder by Bloodwing's death than by Roland's? You get bloody all tranqed and it seems like there's this tiny glimmer of hope then BAM gently caress you Jack! Might have something to do with me going through B1 with mordecai the whole time. Also Mordy hulking the gently caress out on Hyperion afterwards is awesome. Naturally Selected fucked around with this message at 14:07 on Sep 25, 2012 |

Will this game have any real longevity? Considering there's already several cheats and exploits that can make you godly and that it's actually possible to create your own weapon with 3rd party software and then go online and use it in duels/PvE, I'm not sure if the loot carrot will stay attractive for long. And if you take that away, what's left is a game with interesting visuals, funny writing, and mildly repetitive gameplay. For all the criticism one can muster, Diablo 3 is still king in that regard. Borderlands and Torchlight 2 seem to be more creative with loot properties (resulting in stupidly overpowered poo poo at times, to be honest) but both Gearbox and Runic Games seem to be hilariously inadequate at protecting loot "value" from exploits, cheats, duping, etc.
