    Considering the style of both images are vitrually the same its forgivable to think that what was posted was the real image. Even though the real image is 87 Bizillionar more awesome than the sample The Spaniard posted.

    It's all good, I understand when trying to avoid spoilers people will quickly look away from things before they can even figure out what it is they are looking at.

    I'm not complaining, but... isn't that just spoiling a DIFFERENT game then :P

    Really hope I can sort out GMG today and get a key sometimes before the first DLC comes out...

    But if you're trying to avoid spoilers shouldn't you just stay out of the thread? Especially if you consider pictures of the enemies a spoiler? That's what I do, anyway.

    No, that's exactly why the spoiler tag exists...Release info etc vs actual spoilery stuff.

    Except there are level of what people consider a spoiler and if what enemies are in the game is one then I myself would avoid the thread. There's plenty of pictures in the last pages of enemies and non of them are spoilered. It's not like they'd have to do it for long and wanting to be surprised by enemy makeup is completely understandable.

  • XeddicusXeddicus Registered User regular
    Yes, it can be subjective, but most people would agree not being able to check the thread for general info on sales, DLC, release dates, talk about Borderlands 1 etc etc is more of a hassle than just throwing tags around something.

    If you do want to be 100% surprised avoiding the thread is probably a good idea, but maybe you want to talk about skill trees and not know in-game content otherwise or something. Everyone wins with spoiler tags!

    Still haven't gotten my GMG code, hopefully I'll receive mine by the end of the weekend. I'd love to be able to come home from work Tuesday morning and just get straight into the action and not have to spend a couple hours downloading.

    i never really got chuffed about drops found in co-op games of BL1

    95% of the stuff that dropped in co-op was worse than my existing gear

    that, plus backing up my saves on a regular basis, meant i could co-op with anyone without worry

    What did backing up your saves do?

    oh, if i dropped a great gun for a friend and some random mook ran off with it, no big deal

    Well I enjoyed the first game and beat vanilla but not enough interest/friends to do the rest.

    The GMG has me sold. Pre-loading now.

    I know I'm far from the only one doing this, but my GMG code is here, and the pre-loading is now commencing.

    Now, to bum-rush a store on Monday or Tuesday and buy soooooo much caffeine that I won't be able to see straight by the time I'm halfway done with it. I wonder if that little hole in the wall gas station down the road still has Jolt! and Jolt: White Lightning! I can relive my phone phreaking youth whilst shooting mans.

    And come unlocky time, if anyone needs a Maya or Zer0, Steam ID is the same as forum name and I'm in WWB as well.

    They still have not sent my email but I went onto GMG and my key was finally view-able this morning so you might wanna try and look there also. I'm guessing no one has gotten the key for the season pass as of yet correct?

    I'd imagine that singular gameplay screenshots that show one or two enemies at a time are far more acceptable than a giant image that has a parade of every single enemy you'll see over dozens of hours of playing a game, all at once, ruining any and all surprises.

    If you encounter a hole in the wall at a gas station I suggest you stay away from it.

    So, are specific weapon proficiencies out? I hope so - I'd like to able to use any sweet gun I find, rather than only searching for those 2 or so categories for which I've built up my skills, which I tended to do in BL1. ("Wow. That's a sweet SMG, but this is a pistol Mordecai build, so no ty.") I'm weird like that.

    Here's my Axton. Pitchford confirmed (IGN skill tree walkthrough) that Double Up will double the rocket pods. That's 44 rockets. All I need is 7 more skill points from future DLC to also get Gemini - that's 88 rockets every 30 seconds or so. That's my dream.

    Good lord, I wish the forums didn't notify you not only when someone did and @ your name, but also when someone quotes that @.

    Yeah, anyway regarding the little spoiler stuff earlier; I'd definitely put anything BL2 related in spoiler tags. I actually have no clue what that other image was even from; I was guessing a Monster Hunter game?

    Either way the spoiler thing isn't even something that is up for discussion on these here forums. Yes, everyone has different levels of what they think is a spoiler; that's why you spoiler pretty much everything, at least for the first few months of a games release. Obviously BL2 isn't going to have the intense and overarching story of a trilogy like ME3 and thus won't have the emotional response to having something spoiled that would; but it doesn't matter.

    It's just a bit of fucking courtesy, and it goes a long way.
