BORDERLANDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MessiaaH]

Crix, listen to the IGN and Gamespot video reviews, they both and me has said it. You have to play coop, with ur firends, ppl yuh know and trust, and go through as 1 unit, playthrough the game together, and try to be on similar level with ur teamates. Joining some random game online, where u are higher leveled than the players, and having to babysit everyone, will be anoying to anyone, But u missing d whole point. Bottom line, if u want to be a lonenar, thats ur prerogative.

Everyone else thus far, who has tried playing with somebody dey know where dey can enjoy themselfs, has done just dat, enjoy themselfs. Get some friends lolol.

And dats what swet is all about, half of it is d games, d other half is d lime. that's where lan parties come from. Jumpin in online in gears by myself is cool, but its so much fun, if a group of ppl i know, can jump in and swet/lime.

[Crixx_Creww]

Again with the get some friends stupid comment. And you would then say its not a personal attack blah blah, same thing you usually do.

IF the game was meant to be solely coop, then it would have been made solely coop.
You played solo till level 5 or 6 or some rot and passing judgement on the entire solo play. Weak.

Ive played solo till 25, played coop till 28, continued to 35 solo, played to 38 coop.
And i enjoy solo JUST AS MUCH as coop, meaning, the coop doesnt add anything to the scope of the game that iam not getting from coop play. You keep passing judgement from a perspective of ignorance and I keep telling you that there is like so little difference.

Look at your pet peeve about 1 shotting creeps in solo play.
Last nite i went into a game, at MY level and with my sniper mod with 75% + critical damage, and my level 4 blast rifle, I one shotted many mobs because of my specialisation perks and my mods!
So dont tell me any rubbish about coop play soooo superior to single player because of x y or z, say you LIKE coop more, thats cool, Coop and single player are so similiar that either experience will do for me, except i dont need to wait for others or organise a time or anything.
And when iam not playing borderlands, iam playing d0w2 with friends or hon with friends
blah blah blah ad infinitum.

d best thing u say there is "say i like coop more" dats what u shud have done in d first place, say u like sp more, dont say, sp and mp is d same thing. it is not. and like noob said, chalk it up as a difference in opinion. everybody playin d game sp by default, i post my opinions of mp to let ppl know, there can be a significantly better expereince, if dey try it multi, juss leave it up to ppl to try d thing and see if dey like it. why u feel obligated to let everybody know mp and sp is d same. its ur opinion, leave it at dat, ill keep telin ppl how great coop is, becuase i like it so much, if u find is d same, juss stay quiet nobody want to hear dat lol. and also, i was not d one who started with the "personal" attacks as u put it, scroll through d thread, and see who start with d barty man talk. i juss respond in kind.

So to sum it up, some ppl like SP, some Coop, im the latter. and want to share my joy, EVERYBODY PLAY BORDERLANDS COOP! D GAME MAD!

Gears of war swet lata in d week for all those who own a legal copy. Contact meh.

I think both of yall are arguing over nothing, Matthew clearly prefers the coop while Crixx is of the opinion that both experiences, sp & mp, are similar and prefers to play it alone. Nothing wrong with that people. Kudos to the developer that was able to provide a satisfying experience for both. They coulda go the easy route and made the game either SP / MP only, and if they was greedy make it mp with a monthly fee ewww.

Matthew u running this on steam right? I will try this out when I get some extra cash.

[MessiaaH]

nice, and not on steam, but i buyin d 4pack bundle on steam for sure. i think it works out to 35$ ah man.

Fellers, give this a whirl

as you suggested, i went through the thread to see just who started the personal attacks, and as i said before, it was you, as you are accustom doing and then back tracking and saying you dont make personal attacks.

My position all along has been that the single player and multi player experience are very comparable, and i say so from playing both of them and making observations about the way the game plays and enjoying it the same. I didnt have to change my play style in mp, i didnt receive any additional challenge, no superior increase in AI, i did the same things, and owned the same way. Your position has been that mp is a superior experience to sp and that anyone not playing mp is losing out and or can stay in their ignorance as you put it.

You should state that you like the mp experience more because you like it more, not tell people that the mp experience is vastly superior to sp and they are wasting their time playing it sp, or that the sp is s*(&* onec again as YOU put it compared to the mp.

Ill again warn you about the personal attacks, i most fed up of your constant need to attack others.

[MessiaaH]

if i want to say, mp vastly superior to sp, i will say it, becuase dats what i think malfoy.

and is not just me who say mp better, every single review online says d same, so i guess ppl shud juss stop writing reviews. drop d issue nah boy, man trying to move on, and talk bout somethign meaningful, liek d hidden stats on yuh weapons.

There are alot of really kool weapons hiding in the dark through the game. Found a sniper dat's doing over 200 in damage. As for the missing stats that we aren't able to see, i guess that explains why some weapons that appear to be lower rated do more damage when compared to those with higher damage ratings....so i'll have to give that fix a check.

Tanx for the heads up

Just some quick news blurbs:

---------------------------------------------------

" Borderlands #1 on Gamefly this week

http://gamerdeals.net/blogs/cheap-vi...ds-on-top.aspx

Borderlands was the #1 queued game this week on the Xbox 360, beating out other titles like Modern Warfare 2 and GTA: Episodes from Liberty City. "

--------
"
For the week of October 26th, Borderlands nabbed the 8th spot, according to Major Nelson's website.

http://majornelson.com/archive/2009/...-oct-26th.aspx

With Modern Warfare 2, Left 4 Dead 2, and other titles coming out this fall, where will Borderlands end up eventually? I'm hoping that it gets higher than it is currently, because it hasn't been out for very long. "

This thread offers advice on dealing with connection problems to online play.
Used the port forwarding myself to remedy an issue i had whilst connecting.

[Arcmanov]

Matt, i fail to see why you insist on arguing about another person's preference. If Crixx 's opinion is different from the reviewer's then so be it, not a single person here has a right to judge a man because he is capable of finding value in SP where you were not able to.

This argument is over and i don't even want to see any type of veiled snappy comebacks so you could get last word.

ANY FURTHER POSTS ABOUT WHICH IS BETTER BETWEEN MP AND SP WILL BE DELETED WITHOUT ANY TYPE OF WARNING.

Best post to date in this thread.

[TriniXaeno]

lol @ joker clap gif.

fellas, I must recant my earlier statements on the AI.

Having reached Level 12, the AI has stepped up significantly that my ass had to be resurrected more times than I care to admit.

Still not stellar like HL2's but definitely challenging.

That bumps my rating from  8 to a firm 9/10.

The vehicle really adds a lot to the game, the map is superb and fit for purpose. Again, everything feels so polished. Talk about taking pride in your work.

Script improved as well. Guess the earlier bits really just served as an incubator.

Borderlands deserves our dollars yes.

suhuweat!!!!!

[Crixx_Creww]

yeah, huge maps are annoying without the car though, and even the car i still dont like
got accustom to tp scrolls and tp npcs so its a little inconvenient but not horrible.

I havent gotten a chance to go in the arena yet though, ill try that sometime.

IGN Game of the month on both xbox and pc:

[Arcmanov]

Finally fired up the game last night...at 9pm...and DID NOT LOOK AT MY WATCH TILL IT WAS 4 AM!!! 

Good GOD this game is addictive.  Every time I said "...OK, just ONE more hour", there would be some cool new gun
or item I would pick up.  You really need the firepower with them Skag SOBs running around.

Now that I'm at level 13, the enemies have certainly gotten badder, and tougher, especially said Skags.
The runner vehicles are a real blast to drive too.

Great stuff...this is game is one that certainly gets better as you play it through.


+ 1 if you can guess what I'm going to say at this point...
