Speaking of Oranges, did they just make it a lot more rare for solo-play this version, or is it multiplayer too?
what's your live name?

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

My experience has been that the gun drops in single player are every bit as good as those in multiplayer. This was very much not the case in BL1.

And thanks to Meatpants for the orange arsenal. Some crazy stuff in there.

I don't have any ethical qualms with getting dupes since a level 50 gun is only useful in the last third of the second playthrough anyway. For me, it's more like a collection...or a trophy case, and it has no impact on my ability to enjoy the game.

And meat, seriously, play a Siren straight up. I think you'll have a lot of fun with her.

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

Found another legendary mod last night, this time for an assassin. This was in a chest in Lynchwood where you blowup the train.

Slightly different stats than this:

both times I've found my oranges now, it's been after having my xbox paused for most of the day so I wouldn't have to rerun through a long section, I'm sure it's a coincidence but it has me wanting to try it again.

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

I'm 50/50 on things. the Bee/ Conference call is just broken. i don't know how much i'll use that. i want to see more of the legendary weapons though so i can at least try them all. I enjoyed having a group of friends who shared on BL1 so i could see everything and pick what i really liked. I want to try to farm just because its at least slightly less random that way. we'll see how long i last

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

Spent another "Key" last night when I hit 41 with May...got two almost identicl Shock SMGs with around 1400 & 1300 damage. One had 50% melee. It's been almost weird on the keys for Maya...

Level 35 - Got a "Fire" Snipe and SMG
Level 38 - Got a "Acid" Assault Rifle and "Shock" Shotgun
Level 41 - Got two "Shock" SMG's

I know those who have been playing TVH already know but I've been surprised of how much you almost need to rotate your weapons to keep up with the rank of enemies. In the first pplaythru I was using stuff 5-7 levels below my character level. Now...it's almost you need to rotate within 3-4 levels or have some pretty good mods or relics to help enhance the weapons. I've had to stop several times to swap out & drop something I was using a few missions earlier. And so far not much anything in terms of "Blue, Purple or Pink" let alone Orange. It's been about 90% white & green drops.

What's duping?

I mean I know it's copying but how?

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

Jump in your game, get away from any save points, drop the gear and then I dashboard. You get the gear and when I fire my game back up it goes back to my last save where I had the gear.

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

Haven't done it since BL1, but isn't it easier just to copy the save file to another storage device?

Probably slightly safer, but as long as you aren't risking an accidental save, it's about a wash.

Safer maybe, but I've done it a few times and have had zero issues and it only takes a couple minutes.

Had to give up on my transfusion grenades last night after finding some shock ones that were 10x better (38,000x7) had never seen any near that high before. I can't believe some don't use grenades.

Who doesn't use grenades? I toss them out when I need to reload. I prefer the singularity ones though, that way when the reload is done all the enemies are clustered together.

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

Amazon.com is having an all video games Gold Box day. As I haven't played either Borderlands and thus don't know the "vault" lingo, does anyone have an idea of whether the description of the 1:00pm PDT deal is describing Borderlands 2:

"Vault-Tec engineers have worked around the clock to bring you a great deal on this post-apocalyptic shooter."

If it's in the $30-$40 range I think I can convince my wife we can afford to go for it.

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

Regarding these codes/keys from Gearbox, do I need to have BL2 in order to use them? Or can I redeem the codes on my Xbox account and then when I get the game I will be able to use the keys?

The codes grant keys for special chests in the game right?

They are SHiFT codes which must be entered through the game. They aren't XBL codes even though they're also 25 characters. The SHiFT ones are stupider in using letters that look like numbers (B, S, O, I, etc). You won't see that in more serious character sets.

You'll have a lot of time for these ones.

Keep an eye on the Gearbox Software Twitter and Borderlands Facebook on October 31, 2012 for SHiFT codes that unlock special spooky character customization skins in Borderlands 2 like the one above!

We'll start rolling out the codes around 10AM CT (What time is that for you?) with more to come throughout the day.

Each code will be active until Sunday, November 4, 2012 at 11:55PM CT (What time is that for you?)

To learn more about SHiFT codes and how to redeem them, visit support.gearboxsoftware.com

It's cool that they're going to keep the codes live for a few days. No rushing to turn on the co... who am I kidding? I'm still going to claim them as they pop up.
