    God damn. Looked in about 10 stores in two different cities, and nobody had any copies left.

    Is this game really selling that well, or did they just not ship many copies?

    I guess I'll go back to getting raped in Demon's Souls. :(

    I think it's a bit of both. They didn't ship as many copies as, say, something like MW2, but the demand was greater than they expected.

    So I got another orange SMG.

    And the scope is broke. Like, the lens is cracked and everything. Made me laugh.

    Could someone please explain the final talent of the Soldier's support tree (where your turret drops "supply packs") to me?

    What exactly does it do?

    I want an Orange sniper rifle, one made by either the incredibly rare super accurate company, or the "one shot or it isn't" super powerful company. I'm hoping for 3.3 firing speed or faster, with a 10+ clip size, 700+ damage with a multiplier of 3x or more, and a 2.5x scope at least.

    brick is really fun. punching dudes so hard they explode is just a great thing. also his insane laughter and yelling and whatnot when he goes into berzerker mode is funny every single time.

    edit: im a level 28 brick on the ps3, if anyone is around there and wants to rock sometime.

    From what I've heard, it shoots packs that restore ammo to whoever picks them up.

    Doesn't do hps that I know of, just ammo.

    It's really amazing how unreasonable some people can be. To be outraged over a release date that has been set for a long time now just because some people were able to steal the product early. Even worse to be outraged when the release date is barely half a day away. You'd think these people have the life span of a house fly or something.

    ive never even come close to running out of ammo, i dunno. especially since you can just buy all the ammo you want from the vendors. doesnt seem all that useful to me just conceptually.

    I've run out during long missions, particularly if just using one gun. It's not so bad once you have a few ammo upgrades under your belt, though.

    That would be nasty. Wish for something better please.

    About the turret supply drop, it might be more useful with four players because there's less ammo per person to grab in the field. With one or two people, yeah, it doesn't seem all that great.

    if everyone has the ammo upgrades for whatever guns they frequent and remembers to stock up from the vendors before you start a mission you still shouldnt be running out of ammo much, but whatever. im probably just biased because im playing as brick and fists dont take no stinkin ammo.

    Can't believe this is finally going to be here tomorrow. Trying to decide who to play first... I'm thinking probably Mordecai, revolver/birdy style, with switches over to sniping when the mood takes me.

    Someone will probably make a hack that allows you to build your own weapon from stock parts you can buy or pick up. Like a "customise and make your own sniper rifle from a bazillion stock parts for twice the price of finding it in the shop normally". So you can put together a no recoil combat rifle, with 1000 damage x11, a 3x scope, 11 speed firing and 99% accuracy for 500,000,000 credits.

    So say the stockpile does 5 bullets/second, the supply drop would give you 100 bullets per pickup.
