If you are the adventuring type, you will go right for a bit then see a very groovy looking camp. Then you will enter it. Then you will leave it. With your balls between your legs running.
[QUOTE=RichyZ;17978386]I would rather have the game by today just for the fact that monday is the dumbest day to release a game.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Kwal;17937072]It's because sales figures are released on Mondays. So generally, companies will release their product one day after the sales figures are released (Tuesdays) so that it allows them to fully maximize their numbers that are posted the following Monday.

And if a product is selling well on a Tuesday release, then there is a good amount of time to order in more shipments.[/QUOTE]

I don't know if I should pre-order Borderlands
I already pre-ordered Left4Dead2
What should I do FP

So do I, but atleast it's coming out
Buying it tonight for 360, hope it's as good as it sounds. I have my doubts.

I kinda figured I'd come in here and see that everyone was discussing the game now that it's out on the consoles... But I guess everyone's getting the PC version.
I am too, but... My friend just got the PS3 version when it came out, so I've been playing it a lot at his place.
It seemed kinda like a lot of the weapons we were finding were kinda disappointing to me, and not as wild and varied as they seemed in the previews... But just yesterday I hit level 20 and I found a shotgun that fires rockets! The description of the weapon actually says specifically "Holy crap! It shoots rockets!" Its ammunition is shotgun shells, but instead of firing a shotgun blast, it just shoots a single rocket. Pretty amazing.
[QUOTE=FlakAttack;17974560]Ouch.... this is gonna piss a lot of people off. 2k has probably just found themselves ousted from PC publishing, and I wouldn't be surprised if the pirates have the game tomorrow, 2 days before paying customers.
EPIC FAIL, no?[/QUOTE]
I know, lets start another boycott

Everyone who has the game has that gun apparently. It sounds pretty disappointing. Definetly ain't as much weapon variation as they advertised.

You're wrong, it's just an awesome gun Gearbox implemented so that anyone can enjoy it's awesomeness.

Some weapons are fixed loots or rewards, the drops however are random
Ice-T plays the shit out of borderlands and tweets at the same time! It's like crack yo! [url]http://twitter.com/FINALLEVEL[/url]
Anyone getting insane amounts of lag on Xbox Live when playing or is it just me?

He's making a song which will spoil all of borderlands' story.
Also I'm not reading that thing until I've finished my own game. [B]In 7 days.[/B]
He tweeted that he played the game for 6 hours straight and said that the game was super dope
[QUOTE=Rigged237;17979714]He tweeted that he played the game for 6 hours straight and said that the game was super dope[/QUOTE]
Why does he say 'dope' instead of 'awesome'?
Because he's Ice-T

He is apparently a huge gamer.
Anyone who has the game, are the guns actually super-varied? Or are you finding repeats.

I don't think I've seen a gun drop with the exact same stats as another
I've found a gun with the same name and effect (regenerating ammo), but the damage was slightly different, along with recoil or something.

Models actually vary a lot more than I thought I would. As far as model goes it feels like I've only seen the same one a couple of times. But that's because they were the same weapon I believe.
They're randomly generated, that's why there's so much of them.
i picked up a rocket launcher which shot 3 rockets at once in a spiral, only using 1 unit of ammo, each rocket doing 222 damage
i've also got a shotgun with 2 scopes and a revolver drum, bright green and is semi automatic

My rocket does the same thing only it shoots for 329 damage or something in that area.

[QUOTE=doommarine23;17977847]Final checks possibly. Just shut up and wait, you're not children anymore; shit happens guys. So you'll just have to wait like the rest of us
(Meant that to more than just you)[/QUOTE]
Realistically they're delaying it since they know the PC version will be cracked and pirated right away and they want people to buy it for consoles instead of pirating it.
Does anyone know if the game ever becomes more open. I thought there would be huge freeroam areas where you drive vehicles around but so far it's mostly linear. I'm at [sp]Sledge's Safehouse[/sp], btw.

I don't know what level that means, but if its of any help, I heard it gets more open between 15-25.

Yay.
Also, there's got to be at least 30 different types of Scags, I keep finding new ones all the time.
