Borderlands 2

[fruckert]

Anybody else playing on the PS3?
Or is everybody here on the PC.

I WILL be playing it on the PS3 around December when my brother comes home for winter break. -_-

Prefer these types of games for the PC, sorreh.

[fruckert]

Anybody else beaten it yet?
Holy ****, was that a blast.

Imma go do it again.

[Prpl_Mage]

Haven't beaten it yet, just plays it coop more or less. So no progress unless there's a buddy who wants to play with me. Otherwise it's GW time or studies or something else.

[fruckert]

I'm on second playthrough, level 40 Assassin.
I think I play a liittle too much.

Also, @DuvalMagic on Twitter gives out codes that unlock golden keys, for stress testing the Shift system.
So...yeah.

[Prpl_Mage]

Am I the only one who thinks the interface is a bit wonky in this one?

Also, Butt-stallion.

[fruckert]

It's got a few glitches on the console, but apparently the PC version has a different interface that was custom made for the PC.
So, I couldn't say.

Is this real? Some of those skill names, especially the ones in the leftmost tree, are pretty blatent.

[Archem]

Yeah, it's real.

[fruckert]

Well, if you don't believe it, you can find out tomorrow.

Apparently the Mechromancer got finished really early, so they're releasing it completely cross-platform tomorrow.

Note to Bethesda: This is how you do DLC releases.
Yes, I'm still pissed about Dawnguard.

[Prpl_Mage]

Yay since I pre-ordered it I should get it for free.
Still not happy with namco, had to wait for almost 2 months before they releases Dampierre for the latest game. Even though he was a pre-order character in the states, and in the game in every aspect.

[fruckert]

I STILL can't get ****ing Dawnguard.
Apparently Bethesda hates money.

[Archem]

They've cited technical issues. The PS3 has so many issues on the tech side, apparently.

[fruckert]

Nah, it's just that Bethesda can't program on it.
Hence all the issues with Skyrim's launch, etc.
They're obviously a 360 company, though, due to the sheer amount of exclusive stuff, and the fact that their games run a little smoother on it.
Whatever, though, I'm having fun with Borderlands.

So!
Mechromancer.
She's kinda sorta awesome.
Her skill set is kind of complex, and at the same time really easy.
The red tree, "Ordered Chaos", is pretty complicated, and obviously for hardcore characters, due to a certain skill.
The skill gives you accuracy penalties and damage bonuses every time you empty your magazine or kill an enemy.
Another skill in the tree, though, gives you accuracy bonuses every time you prematurely reload. Not sure if it gives you damage penalties, though.
Also, Deathtrap is a ****ing BEAST.
He killed Boom Bewm really quick like.
My shields didn't even go down.
