I want a borderlands MMO. I know, it's a terrible idea. But imagine if GW2 or Tera, but with Borderlands gameplay on a massive scale.

I really liked that game though
I'm okay with this, as long as they don't charge too much for too little.
I can't even play this yet due to the stuttering occurring when my wireless adapter is plugged in, then completely disappears when unplugged. Hoping Gearbox support can help but they're "too busy with the release of Borderlands 2."
[QUOTE=Feuver;37784808]Need more enemies like the Crimson Lance of General Knox, they really required some strategy.[/QUOTE]Really? I always just rammed a vitrolic crux shotgun up their asses and pulled the trigger till they stopped screaming. I used an incendiary for anything that was resistant to corrosion...and that pretty much solved my problems.

The crotch area is surprisingly deficient of armor. I just wish crotch shots were also critical hit areas...
[QUOTE=nox;37786558]I never understood the hype for this game tbh, it seems really run-of-the-mill FPS but with thousands of guns that are basically reskins of the last gun with slight stat changes, plus the humor is awful from the gameplay I have seen. I'm probably going to regret posting this.[/QUOTE] Honestly, that's pretty much Borderlands 1. It was still fun though. The second one is really good. Then again, as said already, it really depends on the person. Some people get really thrown off by enemies having levels and number and all that jazz.

I think $10 is fair. Now if it was $15 like a campaign DLC that would be a bit much, but $10 is fine.[/QUOTE] I think I'd rather pick up Stronghold Crusader for 10 bucks rather then a Character for Borderlands 2.

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeahh... That doesn't make sense now does it?
