Nah, got stuck boosting various mates, 44 Soldier atm (plus 32 Brick /21 Siren)

Aye the Dr Neds zombie Island thing

weve played arena every 5 levels pretty much, pretty addictive, if theyd expand on it, itd give more reason to grind for gear never mind the DLC

the only thing thats let me down so far is aside from new game+ theres no rpg style "stupidly hard endgame side-dungeon to get stupidly good gear once youve finished it" it just kind of ends....twice, with no endgame (other than dlc, but its not been announced if the dlc is 50+

Re: Borderland

On my second play through now, 43 and Just leaving Arid Badlands should set me up nicely for the rest of the game.

Played through half multi/single, and Playing round with the Spec on Brick. 50% Longer beserk, 50% more Shield, 50% less damage for 10 seconds after killing an enemy. Rest of the points went into the blaster tree for the Increased fire rate.

Actually loving this right now. Hoping the DLC can build on this a fair bit like Fallout 3's

oft touch call. Dragon age is rather cracking but I've been sucked in by Borderlands probably because of the multiplayer aspect that and the Diablo/wow weapon drop and trying to find the best.

Re: Borderland

Multiplayer is appealing, but Dragon age looks phenomenal o.O

I feel like Natalie Imbrulia (sp?)

Re: Borderland

I'd say go for dragon age origins if your buying COD. Means you've got two very different game play style games. Origins is cracking so far but I'd definitely stick Borderlands on the must buy list.

Re: Borderland

I actually have Dragon Age sitting here, waiting to get Battered into, but have been loving this.

I even found an upgrade to the Orange SMG that I already had. Some fire rate, more damage and a scope. This thing is nuts, most of the enemy's go down easily after a couple of shots setting them on fire.

Can't beat an acid weapon when it comes to the armoured guys though . Already fired over 100,000 shots as a Sub Machine Gun Siren .

Re: Borderland

I haven't managed to pick up a decent Corrosive weapon yet. Got the Static Shotty for getting rid of shields tho. Useful

Re: Borderland

Yeah Ross has a bitch of a Static Shotty and combined with soldier shot bonus it's rather nifty.

Re: Borderland

Gotta say I'm sitting at level 37 after my first single player playthrough and loved every minute of it. Been using Krom's Sidearm loads as it's an amazing rapid shock pistol. Got a good mixture of weapons and armour and just so impressed with the game indeed.

This Gun, and the lower level Variation of it, is incredible. Each shot has a chance the set the target on fire, this stacks. Usually bringing them down to about 60% is enough to let the fire finish em off.

Re: Borderland

Level 50 now, just need some decent damn weapons. Biding my time for the DLC for this now, seen a review/trailer over at IGN and it looks cracking.

Too many games to be playing at the moment, have barely touched Dragon Age and i just picked up Assassin's Creed 2 from work tonight. I need some serious time away from work
