    If I'm seeing this correctly from the stream it looks like there's two types of pistol ammo? I saw what looked like revolver and repeater pistol ammo upgrades.

    Looks like an interesting game. Lack of making the actual characters myself drops it from 'must buy NOW NOW NOW' to 'I'll snag it in a few months when I have money', but I am most certainly intrigued.

    Customization consists of changing the various colors of the different parts of the armor, and your stats/skill tree selection. So while the model will be the same, there is an alright amount of tweaking.

    And it's an FPS any how, the whole point is to look at all the pretty guns they made :P

    Yeah, I just come at games with RPG and sandbox elements with a very "tell my own story" kinda thing, so being able to make my own characters is a selling point, even if it's just a couple of hairstyles and faces.

    But really, if money wasn't tight, I'd totally snag this on launch. As it is, I just can't justify it as a super-high-priority, ya know?

    Yeeeessssssss.

    This game is absolutely what I want.

    Right here.

    All the four man action of Left 4 Dead with none of the zombies.

    Seriously. I am now dangerously close to getting the XBox version (aided by a PC-less friend who just cashed in a bunch of games and is getting this next week.)

    Thanks for doing OP again, Axen. I was literally upgrading my video card in preparation for the 26th.

    It's a travesty that this isn't out for this weekend.

    I may just go down and bug the guys I preordered from until they give it to me.

    Which will probably be the 20th with everyone else on a console. *sigh*

    I've had it pre-ordered for a while and it was already my most anticipated game, but that GiantBomb vid, oh man. I wonder how my Mordecai's pistols and revolvers will compare to, say, Jeff's Roland's main machinegun when my character's level 38.


    spoiled for maybe awesome?
    Also, the stores having a rare item woot-off is going to drive me nuts. Fuck me.

    I'm glad I stayed up to watch the stream. A bunch of the Devs came in and had a nice Q and A... told the player what cool quests to pick up... had lots of "damn, nice headshot" commentary, it was a lot of fun.

    Ok, so that coop video alleviated most of my fears about the game. I can't wait! I especially liked hearing that you level up using specific weapons -- like Combat Rifles L19 or whatever.

    I was a bit miffed at the lack of armor, but then I remembered what the devs said about Battlefield Heroes: they have character customization, but since you never saw it in-game they decided to go for an over the shoulder view instead.

    Which, to me, feels like a bass ackwards way of designing a game.

    I think they skill up differently too. They seem to be attached to two separate skills.
