    Borderlands 2 is coming but its not coming this year.With Skyrim,Mass Effect 3 & a mountain of other games late this year they are better off waiting until 2012.Gearbox still have to release Duke Nukem Forever & Aliens:Colonial Marines,that Aliens game was revealed so long ago I think at the time Borderlands hadn't even the Cel shaded look then.Never played Borderlands myself is it any good for Single player,I always hear Great Co-op.

    I played single player all the way through, loved it! Finished island of dr. ned dlc and just starting mad moxxi. Heard co-op was class as well but I was well content just treking through the game myself.

    Now do a new game with that character. You'll start at the level you finished at (30+), the enemies will be tougher and the loot will be better. :)

    Want to clear general knoxx and claptrap dlc 1st before doing 2nd playthrough, such a great game!


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,558 ✭✭✭✭dreamers75


    The game is quite brilliant in coop just finished playing now started at 6pm :o

    Imo Coop makes the game much much better as the creatures of pandora grow stronger :o

    Got this earlier for a fiver after trading in GTA IV, know nothing about the game but I read a few pages of this thread last month and everyone seemed to be saying it was a great game. Need something while I'm waiting for LA Noire so thought I'd give it a go


  • Registered Users Posts: 106 ✭✭heid


    The ending was terrible.

    Ah tbh, the whole story was a bit crap, the actual journey of getting there makes up for it tho.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,548 ✭✭✭Harps


    Loving this so far! Started it a couple of nights ago and played for 5 hours straight in co-op, great fun and a genuine challenge even early in the game. Started a single player game last night and already after the first few quests I've got totally different weapons than the co-op game.


  • Registered Users Posts: 902 ✭✭✭da gamer


    anybody want to play co op? havent played borderlands in over a year but mightn get back into it if someone would like to join me?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,548 ✭✭✭Harps


    Currently in New haven and have to say I'm finding the game far too easy, I'm constantly 2-3 levels above my opponents and have an smg with a 17 fire rate so I can comfortably kill anyone without any real danger to my health. Finding the levelling up and the constant gun improvements really satisfying but just wish I could have more of a challenge

    The exception is Mothrakk who I've just come across, I'm level 24, for some reason the quest is labelled as 21 and trivial difficulty but when I found him he's level 25 and close to invincible.

    Try skipping a few quests, or flying through a few areas, the next areas will seem that much more difficult. If you're more than two levels above the enemies you're fighting, then you will find it a lot easier. Just the way their level system works, unfortunately.
