Re: Borderlands
50 is the maximum a weapon skill can get up to. Takes a while though. I think my highest is my SMG at around 25 and I mostly use that.

That's that flying moth thing I hid in the shed used sleeges gun. Then when he carpet bomb, I just ran back in and waited in the corner, repeat that, until killed.

The car can't get the angle to actually look at the boss but it locks on just fine. You just drive around shooting until it rains loot. No aiming requiredIf it's any consolation me and a friend died a lot before we figured that one out.
Nice recharge heath and shields fast thingy tho.PVB wrote:King Wee Wee =![]()

Re: Borderlands
Was in the scrapyard, had just blown the explosives and got to the nearest save post when I got a powercut for a few seconds, which meant I restarted back at the entrance when I reloaded it.
There were a few weapon chests to open when the power went, so now I'll have to go through the whole place again just to see what's in them.

Re: Borderlands
Well I've now completed the game. I completed every single mission/quest found most of the best weapons in the game. But I really got the sense as I completed the last bits of the game that some one had lost interested. The end boss could be beaten at level 2, Honest. It's that easy. The last 2 load though areas. I just ran to the end of each canyons to get to the vault. Because I lost interested too. Then I discovered how stupid easy the very last boss was. No skill required. Just sledges Shoot gun. Say no more. The AI lets face it, Was dreadful. The AI are and were single mind and stupid. All the boss suffer from the Dumpy AI. The graphics and the world look nice. But the was hardly any variety. Their is no story either to speak of. The quest are mostly like GTA style. Collect this thingy or shot etc, This was all very very simple. But worked. Overall I enjoyed the game. But It will be soon forgotten. There is nothing that we leave a lasting impression. 7 out of 10. Needs improvement. Roll on Dragon Age.

Re: Borderlands
The Zombie Island DLC came out today! I've been saving my second playthrough so I could include Dr Ned's loot, so now I can do it... just as soon as I've bought some more Points (I've only got about 100 left after buying Gyromancer the other day). The DLC's about 1 Gb in size, so hopefully lots of zombie-related killing stuff in there.
I guess Meow won't be buying it though.

Re: Borderlands
I just finished the DLC. Its not that long the main missions would run you about 2 -3 hours. The side missions extend this to about 6 hours. I played through with a lvl 37 hunter and finished at lvl 41.
Its quite good fun but if you dont have ammo regen its a pain in the arse. I used the "Dove" combined with being a gunslinger meant I was always in killing frenzy.

Re: Borderlands
It's pretty good, but its very lightweight stuff. I'm not sure I've explored the whole place yet, but I'm missing at least one achievement granting quest ("Braiiiiiiiiins"). The actual brains are raining down, but I cant find the quest that goes with it. Weird.chub wrote:The Zombie Island DLC came out today!

Re: Borderlands
The achievements in the DLC are glitched too sadly. The first one (Ned's House) only triggered for my brother in co-op, I didn't get it. Guess this means I'll be replaying it with my soldier at some point

Re: Borderlands
Not really interested. I don't like Zombie games anyways. Plus I had as much as want from the game. No regrets. Very happy with DA.chub wrote:The Zombie Island DLC came out today!

Re: Borderlands
They all glitched, only my brother got them. Switching off the 360, restarting Borderlands and initiating single player with my character however got them to trigger, if not quite in the right order. So 1125G here for the gameMayhem wrote:The achievements in the DLC are glitched too sadly. The first one (Ned's House) only triggered for my brother in co-op, I didn't get it.
