Yeah, actually I looked and they didn't really use normal slot odds like I figured (they just built the winning returns around a similar rate I guess). It's 1:5461 odds to land the jackpot, so landing both I think would be around a one-in-thirty-million chance.

I wonder if they are linked somehow , because before my double jackpot i would get the same thing on both machines every once in a while. I hit eridium on both, cherries on both, etc at some point.

I also hit the triple eridium but I don't recall getting a trophy for it. I was in a pub game and all I remember was eridium flying everywhere and I snapped up almost every single piece. There was a guy behind me lurking my slots like the lurker on friends, but he was actually really nice, helped me complete a quest.

So, uh, is it safe to update on the 360?

Just as a heads-up, all Eridium, cash and ammo (except for grenades and maybe rockets) you pick up in a MP game is shared with everyone. Because of that it's actually better to play slots with other players, so long as you trust them to not run off with the guns that pop out.
yeah I'm wondering too, I want to test Gaige but I don't know

So... Um... is it safe to say that my 360 is F-ed
I get this when I try to download the compatibility pack. I didn't read anything online today, got home from work, powered up the 360, got the request to download the patch, did it... got the request to download a compatibility pack which is "-1 Microsoft Points," and then I get this error.
Any word?

Maybe they got the hint that the drop rates were not appropriate for this type of game?

yeah it's a huge bummer. I'm sick too, and this is my one free night this week so I was pumped to get some serious time into the game. Sucks but I'm glad other people have the error and not just me.

Yeah, Knuckledragger is known to drop the Hornet pistol. Got one from him last night.
And did you see a weapon or a shield/class mod/grenade mod in the vending machine? Prior to this patch I had never heard of weapons popping up there, just the latter, so if it was a weapon then that would be very interesting to hear.

To be clear -- the Borderlands 2 Compatibility Pack on Xbox Live should be FREE ...not 4,294,967,295 MSP. Working to get that fixed ASAP.

So im up to 150 anarchy now... and im doing soo much dmg. Shotguns are kind of a must.
also the reload+ clip - skill is wrong on the tree. Each rank drops your clips by 1 bullet not 1%. 1 rank now and all my guns are less one bullet. I was thinking the raise anarchy cap skill would be a bust but i hit it pretty quick. Just leaving sanctuary for my first quest now.

Take the portal out of the zone then use the fast travel to go back to Hero's Pass. Go through all the trash back to the boss room. The loot will still be there but the body will despawn.

sweet no matter what torque shotgun i use it's glitched and i cant reload. really sucks cuz they rock with gaige :|
And then after wasting 10 minutes you find out those purple beams are worthless Eridium or class mods for another class
Stand directly above them and look down.
Gah, I'm stupid, I should have tried the obvious. Thanks, just pulled the Conference Call out from under his fat head doing what you suggested.

How the hell did that happen?
Check through my posts in this thread, because it actually is pretty fucking low to just get one borderlands symbol slot. So yes.

Y'know... I can't help but think that maybe they shouldn't have bumped this DLC up a week for no reason. It was great to hear news that "The DLC will release early!" But... stupid that now nobody can play online as something at least partially related to that.

re: xbox 360 problem
My brother had the same problem, and couldn't play with us. He bought the dlc and now he can. Another friend of mine(who preordered) was playing with us and then quit out.. and now he can't rejoin us, with the same problem.

Ah cool,was coming here to see if anyone had that same problem lol,freaked me out at first hehe...
yeah I was thinking this too, it'd be fantastic
I don't think this has been mentioned before but sorry if it has:
If you want to reload as Gaige without losing your Anarchy stacks, simply open your inventory (which also pauses the game btw), unequip the weapon you want to reload and equip it again.
Still, I had to bind my reload key to H instead of R because FUUUUCK OCD GOTTTA RELOAD

I think they price things they are meant to be unbuyable like that, usually stuff you wouldn't even see on the marketplace without a special console/account.

Stupid Microsoft Points.
Why can't I just use my credit card for $54 million?

I prefer Maya's special ability to Gaige's, but I do love what Deathtrap does if you bring him out near Raks. Even if they're not attacking you he will go nuts on them. I think her skill trees are far more interesting than Maya's though, although I'm not in love with any of the final skills in any of the trees. Yet.

Its looks like i was wrong. The first rank drops stuff by one then its 1,2,3,4% after that. Explosive shotguns are my best friend.
At first I was a bit worried how Gaige is going to be doing in TVHM with Anarchy build, but i guess having +700% gun damage will compensate for the need to be in enemy's face. If you don't miss that first shot one-shotting Terramorphus shouldn't be too difficult either...
