Borderlands 2 - September 18th - PC/360/PS3

Anialos

I'll be playing this tonight for sure, not sure if I'll be on right at activation though.

Cilla Black

Activation is usually a little bit wonky with massive releases anyway. Usually takes 30 or 40 min for everything properly get the game going.

sligmasta

Any groups have an empty spot? I'm willing to start with any of the classes to fill holes in the team.

TankHammer

Click my sig if you and I are not already Steam friends and we will bring the noise at midnight est.

Stilts

Here is my Steam.

Let's be pals if we aren't already.

Moriveth

I don't think there are any concrete groups formed yet?

I mean I wanna play with Stilts and errbody else

There better not be any No Moris Clubs

Jerkbot

looks like GMG might work on IE, no matter how slow
come on

sligmasta

Done, and done.

sligmasta

Also, do we know if this has built in voice chat?

Even if it doesn't, Steam itself has voice chat.

TrippyJing

It probably does. I mean, the original had it.

In the meantime, I'm going to watch Shooter until the game unlocks

Mr. G

hey guys i bought this on the pee cee

Yukira

Oh man, should I go to the midnight release?

Melding

so, is like everyone going to be playing siren?

Cause i know i'm going to be playing siren because wizards and ladies forever, but

Tef

I'm not shitting on this game at all and I'm really looking forward to playing, but

I think I'm more excited for xcom coming out and I wonder if this will end up dropping off my radar for a few months once that drops. Who knows!

I guess the only sensible option is to marathon this game in my spare time so it's done before xcom comes out

Stilts

Man, who cares if everyone is playing Siren?

Let's just go for it and lockdown the world.

ultimakay

I'm planning to play a motion siren, thoughtlocking everyone and having it bounce around until they've all killed themselves.

Cilla Black

I'll be playing Siren just because ladies tend to be my default go-to when the option is presented. Though pretty sure I only chose Lilith in the original Borderlands because she turned invisible during that intro video and hey, turning invisible is pretty rad you guys.

but what if i want to be a sexual tyrannosaurus instead stilts

Moriveth

X-com does look awesome. I'm looking forward to playing that as well.

Mr. G

I kind of want to play all the classes but I'm gonna go for Axton first

Also I am totally going to completely drop this when XCOM comes out because fuck I need that so much

sligmasta

I was really interested in going melee assassin. Love the thought of being invisible for an entire fight just one hitting mobs constantly.

Abracadaniel

Xcom looks cool as heck, I will probably pick that up later on sale. I am all about co-op in games, though.

Tef

I liked Lilith because I could be all,

'Don't sweat it guys, I got this. Whoops! No I don't! Laters! Enjoy taking all that aggro!'

Moriveth

I liked Mordecai because you had a bird that you threw at people and when it bit people you were healed

freakish light

I'm all about long range death, I hadn't played anybody except Mordecai until my third playthrough. I really liked Lilith though, so I'm a little torn between Maya and Zero. Hmmm.

Hopefully only about ten more minuuuutes. Of course it'll probably be like half an hour cause unlocking is dumb sometimes.

Cilla Black

Like 10 minutes you guys! Think I'll try this with a controller first, see how it goes. I'm pretty bad at proper fps games with a controller, but also kinda just want to lay back on my couch rather than setting up the keyboard/mouse.

Dronus86

I can't waaait

Tallahasseeriel

Throwing birds every day.

Moriveth

Also the Mordecai soundbite I remember the most is "Heheheheh... You want me to share, right?"

TankHammer

So how do I figure out my "build"?

I mean, this is the part I've always hated about RPGs where certain combinations of skills leave you too vulnerable or not heavy-damage enough or something.

Am I supposed to force myself to stick to mostly one tree or what?

I like the idea of going with Axton and gearing myself up around the turret as a mobile bunker of defense and heavy firepower and hitting guys from medium range but I have no idea how well that's going to work unless I try it and if it doesn't work am I stuck with that build? If not then for how long?

I've never played Borderlands before.

Dronus86

Just wing it.

Melding

one minutes go oh shit clocked turned over while i was typing

Tef

The only character I finished the game with was Mordecai, he was great. Bloodwing as a heal was great but I just kinda felt she was a bit underpowered? Maybe I just skilled her wrong, I dunno

Tallahasseeriel

I think it is unlocking?

I can't tell it says 100% next to it in my library.

Moriveth

If BL1 is anything to go by, respecs are easy and fairly cheap, so don't feel tied to any specific build if you don't like it.

Tallahasseeriel

Yep it says "unpacking" in the downloads tab.

Squall

restarted steam and now it's unlocking

Der Waffle Mous

uuuuunlocking.
