Re: Borderlands
So... I decided to spin this up last night and before I knew it I sank 4 hours into it. I didn't even want to get up to use the restroom.
I think I was mid-Level 11 when I quit.
I started with the Siren. I'm not sure if that was the wisest of choices. Still fun, I'm just not utilizing her abilities like I should.

Re: Borderlands
This has probably been answered but I'm willing to be lazy and ask. What is different on the second playthrough that makes it more fun besides the new creature names? It's just the same quests ad nauseam isn't it?

Re: Borderlands
That's the ongoing point of the game: better loot. Eventually your character's base stats will be maxed and you can only improve with better mods and weapons.

Your best bet is probably TRU this week (B2G $20 off) or Amazon (same deal) if it is a valid selection.

The only problem I have with this game is telling apart the weapons. I think that I have a great weapon and it doesn't do shit compared to some of the weapons others have used while playing online with me.

Re: Borderlands
Yeah, I have trouble determining the type of weapon (have to look at the hat/helmet on the pic) and then determining if one weapon is better than another. But I actually like that, you really have to try them out and see. Is this one that does more damage, better than this one with a faster rate of fire? I've got a couple good ones, a revolver that fires 7 shots at once, and a strong shotgun with 2 or 2.5x zoom.
I actually don't like rocket launchers that much, it seems like you have be right on to hit with them, when I would think the blastback would do damage as well.
The first boss kicked my butt more than once as well, I went and did some optional quests first.

Is the first boss we are referring to, Bone Head? Yeah, he kicked my ass a couple times.

Re: Borderlands
Wow the Dome guy being the first boss? I didn't fight him until much later(probably 8 hours in). I found getting through the structure about 10x more difficult than the huge mutant raider, whom I defeated on the first try.

The one that was a pain was the Bishop or Baron or whatever his name was. The one on the trash heap is the one I'm referring to. The Rakk Hive was hard as well as the last boss but I had people helping me kill them.

Re: Borderlands
So while this is active I have a problem/question.
I just did the Scavenger: Revolver mission and cannot for the life of me find the last part(barrel?). I'm standing directly on the spot on the map where it says it is but I've spent probably 40 minutes looking for it. Is it glitched? Does anyone even remember which mission I'm referring to?

I still haven't found that last piece.

That's the spot. Glad I'm not losing my mind. Guess I won't waste anymore time on it either.

i like how his camp is right outside your exit from fyrestone. if you are just wandering about exploring at level 2 or 3 and roam back there you are in for quite the surprise.

I hope I'm describing the correct mission. If not, let me know.
