Tei posted:I did not liked TPS much, was a too much a flawed game, on top of Borderlands that by itself is a package of flaws. But now, I would continue playing, if I still had a copy around. I feel like the zero gravity made everything feel like it was moving in slow motion. Coupled with everything being Australian to the core, it felt really disconnected from the rest of the series. I had some fun with it, but the time would have been better spent just bolting new characters and maps onto BL2.

Moze looks like a cross between Gaige and Axton, so I will probably play her first.

Rinkles posted:Didn't expect to be minorly excited about Borderlands 1 in 2019 I kind of wish I had waited to do a BL1 playthrough now. Then again, if they didn't tweak the enemy AI, it probably won't make much difference anyway. Still, pretty rad that it's a free update. Kind of makes you wonder if they're not going to break from the traditional 4 characters and let you play as some characters from previous games, since they already did the visual update work. e: In BL3, I mean

moist turtleneck posted:lol if you throw it when it's out of ammo and you just hear the trigger click over and over with no booms I never fired more than one shot per clip from my favorite Tediore gun because it was much more valuable as grenade spam. If you can do the same with guns with legs, it would be pretty great to have 5 mobile clips running around firing at enemies.

Judge Tesla posted:Borderlands 1's rather dull areas make me appreciate BL2 a whole lot more, I'd forgotten just how much of the game was set in junkyards with poo brown for colour everywhere. Yeah, I played BL2 first and when I got around to Borderlands it felt almost like an early beta or something. It picks up a bit around the time you run into the Crimson Lance, but the early game feels pretty weird and barren.

I was told there would be lootsplosions

Kaboom Dragoon posted:I never found a class in TPS I really gelled with, but that doesn't mean they're terrible. Given the game they're in, they're probably the best thing about it. I still laugh when I think of the way Wilhelm says 'no' during the inspirational poster quest. I really enjoyed using Blood Rush with Athena, but it was a huge bummer when I was specced to gently caress things up in melee and had to fight a giant airship or something. I could chain through trash mobs in a super satisfying way, but in the end I had to rely on some fire shotgun to kill the final boss because my main skill wasn't effective enough. I also got that skill criminally late in the game to begin with.

Rinkles posted:you're unlikely to be at level 50 if you speedrun TVHM, and you'd have a bad time in UVHM without good gear anyway. (a lot of people don't like UVHM at all, i don't mind it after adjusting to it). I loaded up my Gaige to mess around a bit and decided to try and make a go of UVHM and it has not been very fun at all. I had to unload clip after clip into the most basic enemies and slag damage is pretty much required if you ever want to kill anything. Honestly, I'd rather level a new character than continue.

Andrigaar posted:Anyway, TPS is barely scratching that looter-shooter itch, so I'll probably end up dusting off BL2 to run around Son of Crawmer-whatever-max finally. And trying to max level my Berserker in BL1 after that. It's a real shame that TPS wasn't just more BL2 expansions. I would be interested in playing the new character types, but Elpis sucks big time. It's so dull and empty and the music makes me want to take a nap.

Ruflux posted:Borderlands 2 wasn't a union gig, so nah. Also mixed casting isn't an insurmountable issue but union actors do command higher rates so it could genuinely just be Troy Baker is too expensive for the part Rhys plays in the story and so Gearbox just went "gently caress that, we'll replace him". It's pretty common and has happened to multiple of his roles recently, with few exceptions. Tina at least has an obvious age difference to explain the change. The jump from adolescence to late teens/adulthood can be pretty big and still be believable. Maybe Rhys could get away with faking an accent to go with his mustache?

Did they cut live action Lilith? I had to look this up and saw some ancient G4 footage where they were talking about the casting call and filming but I don't remember it in the game at all.

BinaryDoubts posted:I truly hope there aren't any penny-ante bullshit +4% whatever skills in the new game. I'd love if it was more like Diablo 3 in terms of every choice being a significant, important trade-off with a noticeable effect. I'm not too optimistic about them making those kinds of changes (dumping WoW-style quests would be another) but you never know, I guess. I unironically support a return to Diablo 2 1.10's solution to skill trees, synergies. Diablo 2 was also superior to Borderlands because you got so many skill points. It's a lot more fun with more variety and more regular increments.

orcane posted:The first time I played through BL2 after it came out I got Bewm Boom's legendary (Bonus Package, the double MIRV grenade), used it for what felt like forever, and it was my only legendary drop for the entire playthrough. I got this on my first run too. It's pretty rad and I killed myself a bunch of times because you can clear a room and put yourself into fight for your life simultaneously. When I learned about the fastball though, I went farming.

LIVE AMMO ROLEPLAY posted:I don't know which grenades are worth using so I always equip the ones that spilt into child grenades that also split into even more child grenades. I basically die whenever I throw them. I like the Fastball most because sometimes you want something dead as hell and can't wait for a fuse. It's especially great if you take Axton's skill to throw grenades during fight for your life. It's also  to throw one at a bandit technical that is about to run you over.

The QR codes on the envelopes in BL2 say "NICK WILSON HO OH" if you scan them. I could swear I've seen other QR codes in the background as well. Were these scannable before, or is it part of the texture update?

Danger - Octopus! posted:The jump pad boss you fight early in TPS is the worst. I think I spent 5 minutes after his intro splash screen just trying to find him. Deadlift sucks. All future Borderlands bosses should be given the Bossanova treatment. That dude is interesting, has a great theme, a great entrance and a full rap/dubstep track. He was only in Tales act 1 but he is more memorable than any BL2/TPS bosses in my opinion.

Arcsquad12 posted:Really the trick with Brick is that his explosives skill tree is downright broken once his skill skills activate. And then if you supplement it with his melee tree he becomes downright unstoppable. Who needs a healing shield when you can drop a berserker rampage and heal back everything in seconds while your explosive fists kill everything around you? I'm doing a sniper Zero run right now as well. It's amazing how much easier it is to hit your mark when the scope isn't drifting all over the place. I'm even enjoying run-ins with Buzzards with him. What I'm not enjoying is threshers. Why do they have pinpoint accuracy at a mile distance, the ability to move fast, hide and apparently hides made out of steel? Also, no easily discernible critical spots.
