Borderlands

Anyone playing this? Its a bit weird for me, a FPS combined with MMO-style loot and mobs, but I've started to get into it. I think I struggled at first as I tried to play the hunter, but he sucks for soloing. Now I've changed to the siren, I've started to really enjoy it.

I wants it, are you on the 360 with it Will? If so I can get it and have some co-op fun. There are a few others with it, threads on general and OT about it.

Is it a perpetual world or is it all instanced with a hub? Can you play it on your own, ie do you miss much of the game? Does it have Player vs player?

The thing that scares me about it is the cell shading, I can't stand those sorts of graphics.

Basically the game is like Phantasy Star Online, 4 players, instanced world for them only, there is PvP but it's you 4 only 2v2 or whatever the rules you want money and quests are shared instantly loot is a free for all.

The game is great i played it for a week solid finally got lvl 50 yesterday and have done everything possible so far.

Was Lilith the Siren which was a very cool class.

I only have the 360 Ch3t. I could be up for some 2 player co-op action, since I actually have a gold account at the moment.

I played 2 player co op with a friend from start to finish would defo recommend it, gets boring playing single player compared to co op.

4 players however is just insanely fun.

 

[~Latency~]

got it for the 360 and i'm a bit disappointed with it. it's clunky and sluggish and the graphics aren't anything special so i'll be swapping it for the pc version tommorrow!

 

[Sparx]

Great game, but massively disappointed with the final boss, we took him down in seconds. I didnt even have to move my feet. I suppose my 5 shooting rocket launcher helps. Also kills the framerate for everyone lol

We are playing through a second time and its much better, the mobs are alot harder and the drops are better

Aye - I finished it 1st time the other day. Was quite easy. Much tougher on 2nd playthrough and I'm beginning to think I may have a gimp-spec
