Re: Borderlands 2: "xbox360/ps3/pc" -2012

Anybody know if you start up a game with a character before entering the code, will you still get the goodies for that character? Or is it only for characters created after entering the code?

I've unlocked a few things that are supposed to let me change my characters colors and face from the inventory screen, but I can't figure out how to do it. anyone know?

I got too impatient, so I went with the Amazon CS chat. 5 minutes later, the code was in my inbox.

Amazon hasn't done diddly with mine, either. Preordered 2/26.

I think last Monday or so. I usually always get my codes the day before a game actually arrives. I don't know if it's because I buy almost everything thru Amazon --- including all games or if it's just coincidence.

This is what I'm saying. It's like their system "forgets" that they owe the oldest people A) everything from order date to ship date and B) that they should get priority.

I'm almost done with Amazon pre-orders because of it.

Yeah, those seem to be fine, I preordered in store.

It looks like my unlocked account is screwed up, will probably take a week to get resolved.

It didn't link properly to my RZ account, I'm guessing it's unique to my account and wouldn't worry about it.

I am supposed to be able to hit LB (xbox ver) to create a clone but it doesn't work.
Did you play the first BL? Find a good shield, incendiary gun and a sniper rifle. I never do a run and gun strategy but slow approach of sniping, ducking for cover, and wait for my shield to re-charge. I use the incendiary gun when enemies get too close.

I had no problem using the clone power. hit the LB button and it should work.

Mine neither...just shows "Shipping Soon". Thought it would've made it out today. Cross fingers and hope for Friday at best or Saturday arrival now.

same here. i talked to chat rep who said it could take up to 2 days. that's great. those guns are supposed to help you at the start of the game, not later.

Re: Borderlands 2: "xbox360/ps3/pc" -2012

btw, the first "cameo" was pretty cool.

Spoiler:
Lillith's appearance and subsequent battle was pretty damn nuts. I hate hate hate those Psycho Bandit dudes with the big machetes. So hard to kill one, but when there are about 2 or 3 coming at you, it's tough.

Finally got my code from Amazon tonight, and after the Premiere Club download, my existing character got all the extras. Even the starter weapons which are now completely useless at level 11.

Amazon better get on the ball with their codes on this one. Are we not supposed to get a ten dollar credit as well or am I mistaken?

The dipshit at gamestop told me that the season pass was exclusive to them for the $30 price. I told him I'd wait a few days. I later bought it right from marketplace for the same price.

Frys even came through on the pre-order codes. Of course I have no idea when the game's gonna show up, but I have a code!
