The excellent reviews is making this unbearable. It really is.

Raide · Oct 19, 2009

Anyone else planning on making a few solo characters and another one dedicated to just co-op games? I think I am going to play Soldier/Medic for my online and maybe play the others for my Solo games.

Hmmm... careful you didn't actually get a copy of Bordarlands.

Square Triangle · Oct 19, 2009

The PS3 version has inner box art. Totally Sold on this now :lol

Edit: BTW is there any noticeable difference in the two console versions?

Do weapons disappear if you leave them on the ground too long?

Yes, I put a gun in a some corner in the "city" and it disappeared after a while.
I would've really liked to have a bank of some sort in the game.

People have been saying the PS3 version is 640p upscaled while the 360 version is full 720p, and that the PS3 has some extra slowdown, but I'm not sure what their source is.

elrechazado · Oct 19, 2009

well lame, my delivery estimate is still oct 23 from amazon.

Maybe it'll be like Pokemon, and you can pay $10 to get the "locker" expansion. :lol

Side note, this is yet another nice thing about mods, though I guess if everyone is playing with central servers you can understand why they wouldn't allow mods.

how long does it last? I don't want to have to pillage the battlefield while there's still a battle going on and my teammates are dying. alternatively, I don't want my teammates looting the field while I'm busy dying.

None that I've run into after completing 2 zones, but the backpack gets bigger the more claptraps you rescue.

Oh man i don't know which class i should start with...

Jeez, speak of the devil and magic happens. Literally after checking my amazon account and posting this I got my "your order has shipped" message from amazon.

"via UPS (estimated delivery date: October 20, 2009)."

Hype levels over 9000

well at least you can expand your on your person inventory. i wonder what the cap is for how much you can carry after getting all the claptraps.

still, that's quite disappointing there's no bank.

I like the Soldier, he's really powerful, and when you're playing solo his turret can act like a second player and draw fire.

42 slots I believe.

cap for backpack inventory is 42 slots total.

Well, I agree with you about Diablo/PSO-loot-stealing syndrome. It'd still be nice to have something else. But yeah, I'm gonna stick to GAF and friends for coop.

Ah.

Probably was a janitor for Gearbox and Randy Pitchford caught him going through his garbage one day and got fired.

Revengeance · Oct 19, 2009

My every effort to find the game this afternoon was thwarted. So I broke down, and pre-orded at a local GameStop which is doing a midnight launch.

...must move back to nyc...

The most unlegit way to get a legit game I've ever heard of :lol

On a side note, I've checked Borderlands on metacritic twice in the past two days, and each time I type my zip code in the search bar for some reason before correcting myself. Strange.

If my plan goes right, I'll be back with the game at like 3:20 once classes end, play for an hour, leave for class again and get back at 6:30, ignore all my homework, and play this all night. Wish me luck.

ChoklitReign · Oct 19, 2009

Will Borderlands servers be dedicated or matchmaking?

Lebron · Oct 19, 2009

They had the PS3 version of the game at one of my local Walmart over the weekend, but it was sold out. Oh well, I'll just hit up GS to see if they're doing a midnight launch.

Can you please share some technical impressions? You don´t have probably anything to compare, but I´m really only interested if the ps3-port got some obvious flaws (think: Ghostbusters).

And is Aiming/Fire L1/R1? Or can you at least change the controller setup for it?

thanks in advance.

P2P but it doesnt really matter that much in a coop game.

Man some of you kids hear one thing and then just use it to impress without knowing what youre talking about. No offense.

I'd say a couple of hours.
Or maybe it was because I stopped playing, can't really remember.

smh.

Never underestimate the overwhelming power of an internet message board missing a joke.

EDIT: Practice, that's just a duel- there's a much higher quality display of that in this quick look: http://www.giantbomb.com/quick-look-borderlands/17-1498/

I haven't seen any arena footage yet, though.

There are 5 controller Presets. If you are want L1 and R1 to aim and fire then "Resistant" is the one. Feels kinda like resistance 1 with this.
