Borderlands 2 is sexy as fuck. That's all.

You're sexy as fuck. That is not all.

Still have Borderlands 1 sitting on my shelf waiting to be played.

Yeah, I'm waiting for the GOTY Edition for Borderlands to buy it. I've heard so good things about it. After it I'll grab Borderlands, by then it'll be at Gamestop pre-owned and I can get it for cheap.

you know what sucks? HAVING IT FUCKING BOUGHT 2 MONTHS BEFORE AND WAITING FOR MOTHERFUCKING EU RELEASE!!!

I HAVE IT PRELOADED ON PC FOR FUCKS SAKE.

why cant i get it when americans do? its stupid tbh!

btw. i actually have only 2 games on my pc. 2 games on steam that is.

Borderlands and Borderlands 2 (as said, downloaded and pre-loaded, but still locked).

I bought the first game for great value, goty edition for like 14 bucks lol. And its best game ever, the first part. They say part 2 is all that, and even more. Good for me that i have 3 friends to play it with, we bought pre release packet for 4 games :P

Borderlands was amazing. I actually spent most of the last month replaying it with different builds.

• Brick with shotguns
• Mordecai with pistols/revolvers
• Lilith with sub machine guns

My favourite build though is Lilith with revolvers. Just get a 4x burning revolver and you steamroll through the game without having to crit enemies. Just one shot in the chest is enough. Two shots for badasses. This is because the elemental effect works every time with revolvers. So you set alite enemies with one shot and move onto the next. Lilith also gets a class mod that increases the ignite damage a lot. The ignite DOT kills badasses and bosses effected by it so fast because it does damage based on the enemies hp.

I actually ended up using a 200 damage 4x burning revolver from lvl25 all the way to lvl47. No need to change guns. I just switch to a masher for fire immunes.

Oh, and the Lilith revolver build is the only character with which I've never died or even got a 2nd wind once. Finished the circle of duty quests solo with no deaths or 2nd winds.

Mordecai revolver build with shield bypass. Get one of those magnums that shoots several bullets at once like a 200x6 thing, you'll one shot everything in the last level on playthrough 2.5. I don't recall how well it worked in the DLC content, but anything with or without a shield drops like a fly.

i played alot with mordecai and lilith.

But mordecai was more fun, and STUPIDLY strong, when u spec it right, and get right equipment, its a killer!

I had double machine pistol that had ridiculous DPS (we did some calculations, it was 20% more than lilith with double anarchy and mercenary mod). Also had one masher, firehawk and defiler revolver in inventory. Specced as revolver/pistol mord, and it chewed through enemies like nothing. Good thing for me was that we (played co op, with 3 friends) had so much ammo regen that even double machine pistol wasnt able to run ammo down, and it runs a clip of 70 in a second!

My lilith build was standard mercenary class mod with double anarchy, hellfire, and shock and corrosive stingers. was awesome

shield bypass imo works only with guardians. But then its fucking lethal! I always respecced just for promotory

The thing about mordecai is that it's all about finding the right weapon. Too much luck involved especially if you don't want to spend hours farming for a decent masher. They are so rare. Think I only saw three in my entire first playthrough, including all the DLC. With a good machine pistol like a cold torment, he also does huge dps. Those good guns are too rare though.

For a lilith build, elemental revolvers are easy to find and the DOT ignite doesn't depend on the weapons base damage. Just your level and the enemies hp. So you can use a lvl13 revolver and kill a lvl60 superbadass in a couple of seconds. No need to farm a better gun when you level up.

thats correct.

although, i always liked firehawk more than fire revolver. That theoretical x6 ignite proc...awesomenes!

playing with firehawk + machine pistols, its just totally not the way mordecai should be played, you just run right into the heart of battle and spray away. You dont need to pray, DOT from firehawk does that for you xD Much more fun than sniping from distance, the kind of play that mordecai should do.

Im atm playing with Brick again, gonna go on Skagzilla next, wanna see if i can kill it with fists. If you saw that joke..."large man anally fisting a large dog".

I managed to get a Jakobs Unforgiven Masher, fucking insane gun. My old swift masher worked better for guardians though since it shot so fast, Jakobs was just overkill.

ahh jakobs unforgiven, did you saw video where crawmerax falls under minute against mordecai with unforgiven? its crazy! Also revolvers have so fast reload that it doesnt matter how much bullets it has, reload is faster than fire rate with skills set right!

what char u play in bl 2? I'm thinking zer0, with shotgun, could be unstoppable :-D (only 6 hours and 14 minutes for me )

Yea shoot - reload over and over was faster than just shooting every round :P I'm playing as the Gunzerker currently, and my two buddies are Zero and Axton. I'm still derping around with the skills, I don't really bother finding the best build until I hit the level cap.

yea, seeing as how much possible builds it has, i wont figure everything out until mechomancer comes... did you pre-order it? What do you get with it?

Yea I preordered. You get the new class you mentioned, which releases sometime next month. You also get a gold key. You can get another gold from signing up for that Shift thing. Although you can just open up a text file and change your number of keys anyway.

i opted not to open the chest just yet. how far in the game are you, did you finish it? I'm lvl 14 atm, if there are 2 playthroughs then lvl 30 seems ok for finish of 1st :/

I'm level 29 now, I'm right near the end but I'm waiting for one of my buddies cause he was out today. And yea there's two playthroughs. I'm waiting til I hit the cap to start raping the gold chest.

playing on 2 fronts atm, gunzerker in 4 players co op, assasin solo. dont have much time because of work, but the game is much more awesome than first one!

also harder alot :D

Yea wait until you get to the second playthrough omg the difficulty jumps big time. Also, the weapons power vs level gets really steep in the second playthrough. Pretty much all your guns from the previous playthrough will become worthless an hour into the campaign this time. My beautiful purples and oranges getting triumphed by whites and greens... it makes me cry.

Also, I heard from lots of people that Zero is underpowered, probably not the best solo character :P

alot of people suck at game though :D

just had 8 hours marathon bl2 with 2 friends yesterday, we got to lvl 18 and saved (well, killed) bloodwing. We went into wildlife preserve on lvl 16, all enemies were lvl 19, 20...its manic how hard it is to play like that.

but 2 commandos + siren is one hell of a team if people know how to play, the gameplay is really something, phaselock, rockets on turrets, different elements that are really important for different enemies and also slag...game just forces you to think alot and play it smart, and it all looks fucking spectatular imo!
