Ridiculously well done info dump NSF56K G and T thread

Man, this is game is pretty sweet. I still haven't come close to being half way in Fallout 3, but this one was a birthday present too. I'm having a lot of fun with this, I very much enjoy tons of whacky weapons with neat effects. I need to get the ps3 Ratchet and Clank games some time.

Also, the art style is really cool, and the controls seem pretty intuitive. I'm playing as a soldier, at level 16 now.

I realize this game came out a while ago, but is anyone still playing it? Would anyone be interested in co-op?

I have it for ps3.

    I know Dru recently picked it up. I'd be down for it, except that The Passing is dropping on Thursday so it's probably going to be taking up my game-time.

    I enjoy this game very much. My only problem is a little lag in the game's response to my mouse movements, but that is probably something I don't have configured correctly on my end.

    So who has it for ps3?

    I wish my ps3 was closer to this computer. Or that I had a mouse and keyboard and somewhere to put them downstairs. The ps3 does have a web browser, right?

    I don't have a headset yet. Maybe I will pick one up this weekend. After I get that, I will be down for some co-op.

    A guy at work said it is really easy to get tricked with co-op. Something to do with someone starting a duel, nuking you with a level 60 gun, and then quitting. Is this common?

    I want to get two of the DLC things, the two that are not the zombie one. Knoxx and Moxxi.

    Early on they are rarer than gold

    Yeah, I'm rocking a glorious havoc right now, it's nice. looking at the wiki of the game kinda shows that I'm not gonna get a machine gun with a lot of rounds in the magazine and with blast, which is disappointing

    Oh god this. I have one that shoots four bullets and does like 100 damage with each bullet. That is four hundred damages with one shot and man my SMG skill is so high it basically just murders everyone. Also have a class mod that gives me a ton of ammo regeneration. It's the absolute best

    The General Knoxx DLC finally added usefulness to non-fire/shock elements. Mostly corrosive for the armor guys. I tore through the core game with a hellfire SMG, now I rotate between hellfire/shock/corrosive weapons.

    Glitched so I can't blow up the armory though. I was running it for the first time with a friend who had already done it and he didn't guide us to do what we needed to. We just ended up looting the place and having it blow up w/o completing the quest. Don't know if it'll be patched.

    Wow, that is crazy.

    I like how rewarding it is just beating regular enemies. Scaling difficulty is neat.

    Could you guys say which system you have this for? I am looking for some people to play with soon, and I don't know who has what.

    Before they changed the loot boxes in New Haven, me and my friends spent a little while repeatedly loading the game and searching the better ones.

    I got 2 orange-level sniper rifles from that, one that would just make 5 randomly placed shock explosions appear if you missed your target, and one that made an large explosion of fire where you shot it. Both of them did soooo much damage.

    I have a machine gun that fires 4x electric bullets. Even at like level 28 with all the abilities and shit, it holds like 60 rounds. Has a 1.5 zoom scope.

    So after people get their shields melted off they fry in electric death and the tops of their heads blow off.
