The comedy in the game reminds me of a Mel Brooks film, they just keep throwing jokes at you hoping they stick. Which is totally fine with me considering most of them have.

I'm sure this has been answered but what guns are you using? I think Torgue guns shoot "gyroscopic rockets" or something, they do explosive damage but travel much slower than bullets. That could be the issue. I had trouble in my first Co Op game, I was the fourth one into the party and I was moving in slow motion. I could look all around at normal speed but jumping and running was really slow. I quit the game for the night and really haven't had any trouble since.

Playing as Cataclsym Maya specced for fire dmg is amazing so far. The shield Lilith gives you + a homing fire pistol = sexy time
I'm playing the same way and it rocks. The Class Mod she gives you helps a lot (it gives you health regen).

Been wondering this as well...

I'm respeccing to Cataclysm as well. Screw being a support, lol.
My problem is that since it IS tougher to get up there and fight I find myself just sitting back and sniping everything which is more or less the opposite of what a Gunzerker should be doing.
As I think I mentioned before I assume it will get better as I get further in and gain more class specific skills for getting in close quarters but for now it feels like I'm having to play the game "wrong" to progress with any decent speed.
the green light on the left does nothing ?
The Mod helps a lot. I'm now a fire god with a homing fire pistol, fire grenades, a fire sniper rifle, and now I just got a shield where a fire burst occurs whenever I lose them. I also like how she says "Pull" whenever you Phaselock someone and kill them with a gun.

You can flick the switch but nothing happens. I'm guessing

Man I'm such an idiot...
I found the golden crate in Sanctuary, and not realizing what it was just opened it at level 8, and got 2 low level epic shields. I was wanting to wait until I was max level to open the crate, so trying to outsmart the game I opened my task manager and killed Borderlands 2 hoping it wouldn't save it. Now that I logged back in, it saved that I opened the crate (I don't have the key anymore), but it didn't save my items. So now I have nothing

There's a way to give yourself many keys but I don't know if it can be discussed on here. It involves editing a file.

Siren + _____ = excellent. Phaselock is incredible.
How would you go about doing that with a Radeon? Just using FXAA from in game settings now. Using Radeon Pro?
I guess but phaselocked dude getting Gunzerked seems to be the most effective combo.
I'll shoot you a request.
I don't necessarily care to cheat, I just wish there was some kind of warning or prompt before using my 1 golden key.
This is my problem, at the moment, just expressed more eloquently.

This game seems more enjoyable to me than the 1st.
Maya specced out for healing is probably the most important class in the game, for coop.

Yeah, I think it should have a warning also. You can get a second key by making a Shift account.
Have you received your second key? I dunno if you can use the chest twice, but the second key must be for something. Sign up for Gearbox Shift in the extra menu, get a key.
Speaking of which, anyone on the PC and not in the premier club?

Just got done playing with a friend for about 3 hours. Fun session, made it to Sanctuary then stopped.
You can get the quest when going on the right path (far right in this screenshot). it sitting in the middle on the road just before attacking some ennemies
not my screenshot
This really weird bug keeps popping up for me ever since I took levels in Zero's Twin Fang. Every so often, upon reload, my gun gets a massive stat boost - much larger magazine, much lower spread, hugely increased damage, etc. I can one-shot badasses from far away with a shotgun.
Yeah, me. Need something tested?

bugged me forever - it's story related - they'll finally tell you when you can
yeah, that's what I'm doing now.
Nope just had an extra code. Yours if you want.
Thanks! I misremembered the location.
I thought all the tapes were in the town, but the first was just outside it...
Snap, really? Yeah, I'd love one!

I chose gunzerking and sniping too. Now, I can't imagine doing it with another character. I've said it a few times in the thread, but his ammo regen when zerking is incredible for the power weapons since regen rate is a flat number, not dependent on the type or size of your ammo pool. You get sniper ammo back so fast so you can easily afford to run the fast snipers and not be so methodical about everything.
Started the game with zero. I thought I can equip und find different swords
Nah. You can learn new skills to change up sword animations/strength, but this is all about guns,grenades,gunades, and nadeguns.

If you liked the Soldier in the first game, you'll LOVE the Commando.

Yeah, it's weird how Claptrap is annoying as hell, and everyone you come across talks about he annoying he is. I just got away from him and I hope he doesn't come back.
Also, Gunzerking just gets better and better. I'm dumping all my points into it.
Did Gearbox miss out on a big chance to have unlockable skins for Sword/Turrets etc? Seems like a no brainer.

Played a little bit of this yesterday, getting my commando to about level 7. Guns all look and sound great, enemies move around lot more and seem to just be tougher to take down in general and especially in groups. I'm loving the new staggers and how enemies will crawl and ache if you get them close to death. I've had more than a few moments where I laughed out loud from the humor and voicework. Well done Gearbox.
So then I dropped into some co-op with my buddies, all starting new characters, so we had two commandos and two ninjas. Areas that had taken me 15-20 minutes to work through were places we just stormed as group and cleaned up in seconds. Co-op was such a mad clusterfuck of explosions, gunfire from all angles, turrets being deployed every few seconds, ninjas stabbinating everywhere and just full tilt madness all around.
All in all single player feels harder but co-op feels much easier. So far anyway, up to about level 10.
