The original Borderlands is the only 'modern' game that I can play through 16+ times (seriously) and not get sick of. Mass Effect, Deus Ex, Saints Row, Grand Theft Auto etc, have all come pretty close, but nothing has been able to match it yet.

Open world, a thousand different enemies to kill, more guns than you can think of, and it's pretty damn hilarious.

Dodgy 14 minutes of gameplay video;

And the official release trailer;

Super excited for this. International release date is 21 September... Was originally in July at some point, which is kinda disappointing, but it gives me a few months to finish ME3 a couple times and get that out of my system.

Will definitely be in for that one thumbsup.gif

Enjoyed the first thoroughly but strangely only as Lilith, the other characters bored me.

Playing through the story in a group of three is awesome.

Only issue was that one of our mates started to cheat using Willowtree. Ghey.

Playing as Lilith was rad. Didn't really like her in low levels, but once you got her up to speed with a decent SMG, she made most missions a snack.

Brick and Roland I didn't feel were nearly as flexible.

And Mordacai... Couldn't even finish 1 play through with him. Painful.

Never did the multiplayer thing with the first. I'll give it a crack with this one though.

With a bit of luck, they fix up the rocket damage.

Even with a maxed out Brick, rockets were less effective than guns rolleyes.gif

So are you saying you didn't like trying to kill badass' with giant Nerf guns?

Me neither. Shit got old quick.

must admit i would have spent a good few hundred hours on the first one and it's expansions.

i mainly used mordecai, found the other characters a bit "meh". even lilith and her stealth walk thing would only do maybe 20-30% damage to a group of enemies so it wasnt that much help. i liked how with mordecai you can send out his pet darkwing and he'll take out several enemies in one go before returning once you've unlocked his skill perk a few times that was awesome. but after a while the game got pretty tiresome.

and yeah i wish some elements had been more realistic. like having to shoot people 5 or 6 times in the head with a high level sniper rifle before they'd die is stretching it pretty far and its frustrating as fk!. like some of you mentioned same problem with rockets. that kinda stuff is meant to be the holy grail of death and destruction yet it just kind of becomes redundant when all it does is cause someone to stumble.

I do like that this one will supposedly allow split screen online.

On another note, wife came home yesterday with a receipt for a BL2 pre-order, then proceeded to tell me that she'd pay the rest before the launch date.

Good woman that one.

Played the first one through including zombie island and the thunderdome add on as Lillith. Loved her so much, other characters were a bit bland in my opinion. Didn't play any of the other add ons though.

Really looking forward to this one. Not sure who to play as, the assassin or the siren again.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
