Borderlands

Costas's picture

I want to play this game sometime in the future, like January or something, but with a friend(s). Let me know if you are interested so that we hold off playing it now and play it co-op at an agreed point in time.

This is the Big Mac of games, great levelling up options, I love the mad little f*ckers that run around bare-chested screaming and trying to chop your head off.  Brilliant.  Skags are awesome, I particually liked Moe.  A lot of glitches though, I find myself getting stuck especially in rocky areas mid firefight which gets frustrating.  I just wish it had a weapons crate option like far cry 2 (just picked up an awesome level 22 sniper but I'm only level 18, should I keep it in my backpack and waste a slot?).  I like the way you can either plan ahead, take it slow and pick off all enemies, or charge in like Leroy Jenkins (check him out on youtube for a laugh). 

Impressed.

 

 

Rescue every claptrap you

Rescue every claptrap you find and then use the reward to increase your storage backpack capacity by 3. Maximum is 45 for the 1st playthrough.

I rarely got stuck in rocks and only when i was trying to take an akward shortcut. Sniper rifles are like a 5-edge sword. One can never find the ideal one. They will be severely lacking in firepower, scope zoom, fire rate, clip size or damage. I personally found an awesome assault rifle when i was level 15 and used it until i reached level 35 when at last i found something better. Its scope, fire rate, damage, bonuses and clip size were super and made all other weapons types useless while in terms of rarity it was only blue. Its reload speed was 0.5!!! Add to that the fact that i was a soldier whose abilities and class enhancements include increase in fire rate, clip size, zero recoil and assault rifle damage, and you will start to realise what an awesome mean killing machine i was either up close or from far away. Finally i was earning even more bonuses through the almost entire use of the assault rifle by reaching higher level of proficiency. I'm currently level 46 (2.8 million XP) - halfway through 2nd playthrough - and AR proficiency level 22. The cap for both is 50.

I would recommend sticking with a couple of weapon types and specialising in the proficiency of those. This way the enemies will be much easier since the game puts you up against enemies of the same level with you but you still kick their ass since you put into good use your proficiency and class bonuses that they enemy AI director ignores.

I recommend the Zombie Island DLC especially in co-op. It's the best of 2 worlds: Borderlands and L4D. I think the 2nd DLC is also out which i'm definitely getting as soon as i'm back in Cyprus.

Looking forward to trying it out co-op with you guys.
