k-wix Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 'aight then, I guess I'll go ahead and buy this tomorrow (today, technically). That is, October the 15th (Thursday). Edge and K-wix, if you guys want to go ahead and paypal 33.75 to biggiantcircles AT gmail DOT com that'd be awesome. And PM me your Steam ID's if I'm not already your friend on there. Edge, I think you're on my list already, but couldn't hurt to PM me anyway. I'm too lazy to check right this sec. Remember to Paypal using the *gift* option or whatever, so Paypal doesn't take out a fee or some garbage. Thanks fellers. Sent Lemme know if there are any issues.

EdgeCrusher Posted October 25, 2009 Author Share Posted October 25, 2009 Updated the topic to try to get some more people in on this before it runs out in 20 hours. Also, preload the game if you got it already! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global-Trance Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 I'm on a four-pack with this and Left 4 Dead 2 already. Thank God for that Steam deal. Color me excited! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirChadlyOC Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 I've been trying to "rent" the 360 version from work, but we've been sold out of it by closing every day so far. It sounds sweet, and getting it on STEAM is always a good decision. I miiiight get the PC one instead of the 360 one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hy Bound Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Got it for 360 and am at like level 22. Its fucking fun. I haven't really jones'd for a game in a long time, but i cant wait to get home and start playing. EDIT: As someone who hasn't played mmo's before, i'm kind of unaware of some of the meanings of stats... What is the "x9" that blinks when looking at damage for guns? I thought it would just be "times 9" but that doesnt seem to be true. Anyone want to enlighten me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Global-Trance Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 So I hear people on PC haven't been able to connect to like... anybody. Edit: The multiplayer is through Gamespy apparently and you need to forward the following ports if you're on a router. 7777 (TCP/UDP) 27900 (UDP) 28900 (TCP) 28910 (TCP) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atmuh Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 gj 2k actually nevermind multiplayer doesnt work at all no matter what Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Flintlock Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 I was actually very skeptical about this until I picked it up a few days ago. I'm only at level 15 or so but it is a lot of fun. I thought seeing a bajillion numbers popping up as you sprayed an assault rifle would be distracting, but its a very satisfying experience. I'm getting owned a lot right now by those skag things so I probably need to update my loot though. I just don't want to sell my quick regeneration shield for a high powered one. Its saved me so many times now! /end babbling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skummel Maske Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 I was incredibly hyped when the first screenshots popped up, but after hearing that this works best in multiplayer I kind of lost interest. Is single player mode really boring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is single player mode really boring? i cant get multiplayer to work i tried all day (which is making me really mad btw) but i seriously just spent my entire day playing single player and i had a ton of fun and will definitely play a lot more of it, even if i have to play it single player that doesnt happen with many games edit just found this http://gbxforums.gearboxsoftware.com/showthread.php?t=79043 buncha tweaks like removing the intro video i mean really what are devs thinking when they use intro videos a minute long and make them unskippable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxFrost Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 I'm also playing, have a level 20 Soldier who can very easily go back to med spec (support spec is imba for tanking on groups). This game is freaking awesome. I'm kinda irritated at the multiplayer bit though. It shouldn't be this hard to get people hooked up. I blame gearbox for a shoddy PC port, makes me wish I got this on the xbox instead (even with a better video card in my PC, vsync alone makes the PC one worth it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcana Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 PC or XBox 360 version guys? I'm not really into third-person mods or anything and would just want to play the game especially to do co-op. I don't have an XBox Live Gold membership either so I'd like to know if I need one to play co-op. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global-Trance Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Might want to change the name of the thread now pre-order prices are no longer available. Four pack deals are now $37.50 per person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Tran! Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 This game is awesome. I wouldn't mind playing with some of you guys as my bros. I love Roland. <3 His god-turret is amazingly fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have an XBox Live Gold membership either so I'd like to know if I need one to play co-op. Yes, you'd need XBL Gold. I think this game is better on console than on PC, personally. The multiplayer works really great 360. The other day, I was just chatting in a party with one of my friends when he suddenly joined my game. I found this significant because I didn't have to select a "online" option when playing my campaign. I just played the normal way and he still could join my game in the middle. P.S. Another thing I love about this game is how easy it is to save your game. You don't have to go run and find a save point. You can just quit at any time and keep all your stuff. When you reload the game later, you're at a spawn point that's likely very close to where you left, but not in the middle of getting eaten by giant badass skags.

MaxFrost Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 I'll have to try that out when I get home today. I'm tired of having to fuss with router crap when I shouldn't have to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read in a few other places that the PC version feels too much "like a console design". So I guess the console is considered the "gold standard" for it. Console it is!

Dj Mokram Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Yeah, having just seen the number of problems inherent to the PC version, the console version appears to be the best option. Though I won't be playing it myself, seeing as loot-fest are generally the most addictive time-sink ever, I can attest the game is really fun and engaging, especially in co-op/multi-player. I was starting to notice the similitudes with another game from Bethesda, when I heard a bandit said: "Scared? You should be". Wasn't that the raider's line in Fallout 3?

Gollgagh Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 there's also the thing where the console version randomly corrupts your save so you have to keep that in mind as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doulifée Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 that's fun. i love throwing corrosive rocket everywhere and finish the work with my shotgun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
