On pc your money display caps at 9,999,999 but it keeps going up even though you can't see it. I hit that somewhere in my early-40s. I can tell it keeps going because I can buy something from the vending machine and the display stays at 9,999,999.

 

[Hawkian]

That must feel good.

You're rich, biatch.

 

[Woo-Fu]

It is nice not having to pick up and/or sell anything. Just for fun I'll get a full inventory of level 48 weapons and then join a co-op game and drop them for the lower level characters so they don't have to worry about money ever again either.

This is also in the 360 version. I died and it cost me 1.2 million to spawn, didnt dent my funds. So the 9.9million is just a capped counter, not your actual money once you've hit that point.

Here is the screenshot.

I resized it for easier viewing.


As I mentioned before, I had 1337 before, but I used a few backpack upgrades.

This is how it was since the first day I played it. I didn't do anything to make this happen. :lol

 

[Swag]

:lol :lol

Jealous

:l

 

[Hawkian]

Weird. Surely hex-editable in the PC version but... the first time you booted up, eh?

EDIT: Your Blister is blue, mine was purple :lol

 

[Dead Prince]

Oy. i need to upgrade my backpack. i'm still running on 12 WTF.

 

[zero2000]

Yep. And I remember thinking, "This game is loot heaven, so the massive backpack makes sense."


My brother: "I only have 25 slots."



Me: "Wuht?"

I ran into someone else who got that glitch.
Also it costs me around 2 mil to res, not cool :lol

 

[Insaniac]

man, anyone who hasn't tried a gunslinger build needs to try it. You know it's good when you pull the trigger and you've fired off two rounds before you realize it.

http://borderlandsthegame.com/skilltree/mordecai/#11500505550030005500052

thats what i've used and I've got a machine pistol with a 14.4 fire rate and 50 rounds mag. Just run up and pound enemies in the head for massive crit damage.

I've also got a 7x59 revolver right now that is just ridiculous

 

[zero2000]

Bad thing is, is that if I start a new game, I don't think I could function properly with with those small backpacks, lol.

Comparison time:

 

[Hazaro]

I'd take the equalizer hands down.

Here's my current backpack.

The destructor has come = Full auto while zoomed, almost 0 recoil
Sniper Killer = Automatic, just a crazy good gun
Glorious Havoc on the bottom right is level 28 and is still good at 50 :lol
Keeping mind I have +120% mag size

 

[Red]

Hazaro, I want your hard volcano. I want it so bad.

Though I would gladly settle for your liquid penetrator.

 

[Hazaro]

:lol
Go on and I'll give you them. Both of them. At once.

 

[Red]

:lol
Go on and I'll give you them. Both of them. At once.

They're so huge, I don't know if I'd be able to fit them both in my backpack at the same time.

 

[Hawkian]

Hazaro? Is that "my" Savage Masher? O.O

HOLY SHIT.

 

[Andronicus]

grabbing this game today for PS3, ratchet will have to wait till next week

 

[Hazaro]

No really if you go on now, your Steam ID is the same right?

Hazaro? Is that "my" Savage Masher? O.O

HOLY SHIT.

Eh it's alright. I still use it for the 4.2x zoom since close distance fighting is suicide with any other people.

 

[Red]

Steam ID is everluck, but my best character is at level 22 right now. No use wasting them on me. I appreciate it though, thanks.

 

[Teknoman]

Doesnt that minus damage % hurt the guns usefulness?

 

[Hawkian]

It's still 113x7... with gun crazy and hair trigger it will be useful enough for me. :O

 

[BobFromPikeCreek]

That's already represented in the 113 damage shown.

 

[Tobor]

I know what you're thinking. Did I fire one shot or two? What you need to ask yourself is...

...do you feel lucky, punk?

 

[Teknoman]

That's already represented in the 113 damage shown.

Oh, nm then. EDIT: Damn Tobor >_<

 

[untoldhero]

WOW.. they really fucked up the online on the PC port.

Have to port forward everything for this to work with friends, why couldn't they just use steam?

FUUUUCK

Yeah I know...but theres always whatever upcoming workaround Gearbox adds in the first PC patch...if anything.

 

[sneakypete]

So tell me fellas, when you're getting all of these bitchin' rare orange/yellows are you playing solo or co-op? Are the phat loot drops much more common in co-op? Does drop rate increase on the 2nd play through?

I'm at lvl31 on my first play through(just capped the

Spoiler

Rakk Hive.. who dropped *drum roll* A GREEN!

) and probably only seen 3 oranges(my lvl 25 defiler revolver is fucking nasty, but sadly the only orange that was worth keeping, the rest being bested by purples). Am I just unlucky?

Are you checking the deal of the day in the shops? That's where I picked up that revolver. I was playing solo at the time.

 

[Teknoman]

co-op, 4 players.

EDIT: At first I was feeling a little skeptical about the huge gun variety, but after getting into the early 20s level range, i'm really starting to see all kinds of variations.

 

[PumpkinPie]

Is there any way to mod the .ini file and increase the backpack space? I like keeping some of my old stuff.

 

[untoldhero]

Yeah I know...but theres always whatever upcoming workaround Gearbox adds in the first PC patch...if anything.

We have been trying for 30 minutes (we me and my mates), we have tried Hamachi - Gameranger ... fucking gamespy piece of shit Gearbox.



Sorry i'm frustrated!

 

[sneakypete]

Yep, whenever I hit a new zone/see a vender that's the first thing I do. :/

 

[Blizzard]

Bleah, just tried hosting, a friend tried hosting, once I could see his game but couldn't join, etc. Tried Hamachi LAN, but apparently you have to change network priority for that to work and even then it only works with "online" private games and your Gamespy friends list? Thus meaning I can't use it at all, awesome.

Does anyone else ever have buttons activate when you hover over them? If I add a friend, and then hover over the OK button, it instantly tries to add them without me clicking. Could someone please verify this? I've already reinstalled the entire game and I don't know what else to do without emailing customer support.

 

[Slayer-33]

Comparison time:

Equalizer, easily imo, hell it's my hunters main revolver @ lvl 36 still. The ammo regen puts it over the top and the nice 6 rounds/reload speed.

 

[Uncle AJ]

WHAT?! 6 rounds, level 28, with 7x84 damage, AND ammo reload? Not to mention an super quick reload time... . THAT BITCH IS STACKED!


I want it.

Although I do prefer the scoped pistols. If it was scoped instead of ammo regenerative, I'd be in heaven.

You can have it next time I see you. I've already found something that out-does it on sheer damage:

No regenerating ammo and only 2 shots in the chamber, but that's a pretty substantial power increase. At point blank, it exceeds some of the best rocket launchers.

Besides, I just found this baby for all my infinite ammo needs:

 

[Uncle AJ]

DashJH, I timed out.

 

[Hazaro]

DashJH, I timed out.

Oh...

I kicked you :lol

My bad.

 

[Hawkian]

Hazaro thanks for the ludicrous pimpage. Now I know what I have to look forward to :lol

EDIT: At first I was feeling a little skeptical about the huge gun variety, but after getting into the early 20s level range, i'm really starting to see all kinds of variations.

I agree, it really opens up around 25, and now that I've seen a fair assortment of 40+ weapons from the most recent session I was in... holy shit.

Who says the load times are zippy on PC? In multiplayer co-op, it just took like 25 seconds to load Arid Hills. And I have a 7200 rpm hard disk, I think...

 

[Hawkian]

:/ Never seen an area load take longer than 7 seconds, even ones I'd never seen before.

 

[CrookedRain]

Defrag your hard drive. Even my laptop loads areas faster than that.

 

[Blizzard]

My hard disk light barely flashes during it. Network issue with the host loading maybe?

 

[Hawkian]

How are you load times in singleplayer? Like mine or more than 20 seconds?

 

[CadetMahoney]

Comparison:
http://www.lensoftruth.com/?p=15982

better lighting and effects on 360 but better textures on ps3?

Missed this article, really helps decide which version to buy. I feel they were right with this one. . .

PS3 version
+ textures (some textures not all)

360 version
+ framerate
+ loading
+ more detailed self shadowing
+ less tearing
+ no install required
+ SSAO
+ Bloom lighting

I mentioned this earlier in the thread, but people are using GameRanger now for that reason.

 

[Deleted member 17706]

Well I finally was able to host a private match and have my friends join on the PC version. None of them could host though even after opening up ports.

The co-op in this game is a blast. We all made new characters and went from 1 - 16 in one sitting. Between this and Torchlight I really don't have time for anything else. I still have Brutal Legend barely untouched and I'm at the final stage of Uncharted 2 on Crushing. I'm screwed when Dragon Age shows up next week!

 

[Swag]

I'm screwed when Dragon Age shows up next week!

I'm in the Trash Coast at the moment and pretty much just have later today to finish the game before Tuesday because once DA : O comes out I know I won't be coming back except for dlc :lol. Is anyone around the trash coast, I'd rather do it co op but don't wanna run around with randoms they always abruptly leave, and make me lose progress.

And the game is too easy alone :[

Anyone having trouble with online on PC, use hamachi solved everything!
