Title: life in the borderlands
Post by: Caradir on August 19, 2010, 11:18:15 PM
I notice that a few of us now own Borderlands (one of my favourite games of the year) and as i purchased (legal) versions of the DLC with steam mayhaps lets try and do some multi action

Mad Moxxi for instance is IMPOSIBLE solo and is more fun MP, plus better weapons drop in MP ;)

connection wont let me put up an event in steam so how about

Sunday evening 6pm? if you guys who own this agree we can make this a regular thing until we blast everything the game has to offer to kingdom come :) If you enjoy it solo i assure you MP is 10x more fun :)and more challenging ( i found solo easy personally)

I kinda like it - and it was all very cheap (go go steam)

So id be interested.

Only just started, but easy enough to grasp.  Blasphemous I know, but im playing with gamepad over my mouse+keyboard right now :)

Sunday, premiership started again last week.

Sundays are a touch more busier - more so since im one of a handful of folks with ESPN that I know.

Do like the look of this game for MP mind you - love the cellshaded look it has as well.

Gamepad isnt a good as mouse+keyboard though, will be switching back.

Dr Zeds is fun especially Old HAven full of Zombie troopers, Mad Moxxi is infuriatingly difficult at times, secret Armory has some nice vehicles :)


but on another note just got a text telling me im busy on Thursday evening now, so Friday instead?

MP is the Online stuff yes? I'll need to dig out one of my Gamespay logins it seems.

Or do you mean the option to invite people to an SP game and co-op it? (i assume its co-op)

yup thats the best way to go about it, any bagsies on class? as its good to have variety for class mods

i.e. Soldier gets +team ammo regen
Hunter gets +team health regen

Siren and brick get ????? not played them much ;)

was fun indeed, apart from that bizarre difficulty bug when Jon was hosting.

Playing a shooter with rpg/mmo style character development and a quest system really is so much better with people.

Im just not allowed to host games anymore after that random thing were difficulty increased especially given co-op doesnt have difficulty sliders.

i wont promise anything as I may be on EVE, and I find it hard to tear myself away lately (RVB is that much fun right now), but I'll aim to be on steam and not shooting spaceships between then and 7pm.

Although if lotro goes to an early start tomorrow (wouldnt surprise me they sneak it in at downtime :D) then it may all go out the window.
