Anyone know how much the console versions are in xtravision?

EGriff · 29-10-2009 12:30am

Think it was 45 in xtravision. Cheaper elsewhere apparently. (PS3 that is)

Spunge · 29-10-2009 6:18pm

man its really hard to find a working game online, let alone a game where you are the same level as the other guys.

WolfForager · 29-10-2009 6:24pm

Just played an online game, alot easier than playing solo imo! I was level 7 playing with another 7, a 10 and a 13. Pretty good, only downside was that they didn't have mics.

Gunmonkey · 29-10-2009 8:55pm

Yeah, a mic is mandatory for online from my experience, shooting at weapons to indicate the other player to pick it up gets annoying fast.

Just after killing the Rakk Hive myself, quite easy compared to other bosses.

Steam wont release it till tomorrow. Ill have it then.

WolfForager · 29-10-2009 10:33pm

I'm really confused as to whether i should play online all the or play single player... Seem to be getting a shed load more exp online. But then again i think i'm missing out on new better guns...

Dcully · 30-10-2009 1:00am

What a game, got it for 360 the other day but my son is hogging that so i just had to grab the pc version today which looks even better.
Easily one of the best if not the best games of the year.
When i heard gearbox developed i was skeptical but bloody hell they have a real masterpiece on their hands.

Sarky · 30-10-2009 1:29am

Bloody fun game. Diablo 2 with guns is pretty accurate. Wade through hordes of enemies, kill them in the face, and nick their stuff, then go and kill BIGGER enemies. It's fun enough in single player, if quite difficult. Co-op is pretty slick. It's damned stylish. I approve.

Sephiroth_dude · 30-10-2009 1:33am

Got this in gamestop today for 35 euro,Im hoping its worth it.

I'd be up for some co-op, if anyone else is let me know!

tampler · 30-10-2009 10:48am

Played it on PC last night, right after Steam unlocked it.
I like it so far. Performance is good, especially on my old PC, (still has a good old pentium 4 :P)

Thankfully, I have a full weekend to get used to it.

Have to say I love the song during the opening sequence! Haven't been able to stop playing this!

WolfForager · 30-10-2009 3:13pm

Have to say, the "bazillions" if guns available is actually quite tedious, i spend about 15 miuntes every hour of playing trying to figure out which ones have the best specs

grizzly · 30-10-2009 3:16pm

Does anyone not find it a bit repetitive yet?

Sarky · 30-10-2009 3:17pm

How? It's a very simple comparison or damage, reload time and rate of fire, with whatever bonuses are in the lower tab. You can tell at a glance if one gun is more useful than the oher. Pick the one you like, sell all the rest.

Dunno really... Are the bonus specs included in the specs shown or are they on top of the specs shown?

Jumpy · 30-10-2009 5:32pm

I went with the Siren. Ill be on tonight if anyone wants a game.

Both. Good exp from groups and some areas are easier to clear but with solo you keep all the purples for yourself. Though there is meant to be a better purple drop rate in co-op

dreamers75 · 30-10-2009 7:46pm

Mumble is 84.203.243.163 and default port.

be on mumble about 8 if anyone fancys a game?

I have 7mb eircom whoever beats that is the host

The hosts game gets completed the clients get to keep any goodies they find in the hosts game and can level up fairly ****ing quickly by playing it online. Its like pausing your own game and levelling up anyway playing someone elses.

Sephiroth_dude · 30-10-2009 11:52pm

dreamers75 · 31-10-2009 1:45am

heh pup skag wait till you meet a ****ing Fire skag and theres 4 of them :eek:

had an excellent game tonight with jumpy pog and numnutts, the game scales from normal to hard in split seconds. we struggled to get tru some parts and the end we mostly got raped.

running away is a solid tactic

PogMoThoin · 31-10-2009 2:07am

The way the coop drop in/out works is that only the person hosting gets to continue on from the gamesave but the others get to keep all the goodies and the level ups to bring back to their own game which remains where they were. Pretty cool.

The game is amazing fun with 4, needs voice tho as it gets pretty frantic. The special weapon is great, as soldier I could spawn a shielded turret which restores ammo and health if You stand close. I need to try the other classes some other time but I'm finding the amount of weapons a little annoying.

Stev_o · 31-10-2009 2:10am

Oh yeah been meaning a guide to tweaking things in the game like disabling constant chat.
