lol yeh my english can be pretty bad, and to think im in advanced english in my school...

finally finished the game, been playing all day. its pretty fun.

well my copy should be in this week, finally.

just started playing it last night, and i gotta say it's pretty fun.

I get a sense of Fallout vs Bioshock vs Unreal Tournament from the game.

Seems rather polished. Then Pen and Ink effect works pretty well also

yeah i agree, i love the pen and ink styling.


there were a few criticisms i had though, mainly little things they coulda touched up:
-a minimap would save a lot of time instead of checking the map so often
-multiplayer lobby and searching for games could have been re-designed so much better, ie: display the ping or location of the host for starters
-quest tracking could have been made easier to manage, and multiple objectives could be displayed at once to speed things up and save time checking the map. quests in areas you weren't ready to start doing could be minimised or somthing to the log isnt so cluttered making it hard to keep track of everything as you pick them up.
-coulda refined a few of the RPG elements to be more involved



cant remember them all, i had them last night night and ill remember as i play again.
would have been cool if youre playing as a hunter to be able to 'tame' a pet or something, for variety.
i also forget to use it

this aint WoW, dont need no pets...ur a hunter, you should KILL them all!

eh i only use it for harder battles when i remember its there.

I cannot get borderlands to work online with friends.

Cannot connect to a game they invite me too, cannot connect via Hamachi networking or GameRanger networking.



anyone got any similar problems or solutions?

open your ports

forgot to mention i opened all the ports (so has he), and i can connect to some other games hosted publicly. can't find my friend when he hosts though.

it could be a problem with his connection, however i also forgot to mention:

- in one instance we DID connect, via hamachi and i think he had invited me to a game he loaded via single player. however, there was an unbelievably loud static noise echoing through boarderlands and it wasnt his microphone or any in game sound (he made sure his mic was off, and i turned all the volume down).
i know the sound came from borderlands because when i left the game that had finally connected, the sound stopped.

that was the only time we connected, and im not sure why that noise came about. it sounded like someone had turned up really crazy metal over a bad microphone, horrible static.

we tried reconnecting as that kinda gave us hope but nothing worked.
even disabled our firewalls alltogether to try and connect.

yeah ill have to try again when we've got free time


also my Optus plan will expire today ill be back online hopefully by monday or tuesday with Internode, unless something comes up

I just finished it last night and I must say, that if you do all the side quests as you go along, the final one is a little easy in my opinion. Although I guess thats what you get. I played as the Soldier and finished up as lv36 with mostly the infantry skills.

I love the second wind thing. especially in harder fights where you just keep shooting the main enemy until you drop to your knees. Then you one shot one of the minions and your back up again.

I actually think the hardest battle was the final round in the arena in Rust Commons West. It'd be a piece of cake now, but at level 29 vs all those 30's it was tough.

Oh and I should mention that I don't really get itno RPG's, but I enjoyed this one, probably because its also an FPS.

oooooooh what to play first....borderlands or dragon age...fuck I dont know haha, they both just turned up and man...two games for just on 100 bucks! Im happy! HA was just checkin the back of my dragon age DVD and saw this....

"Not for sale outside Thailand" (Althought it also says export or sale to america or europe forbidden...no australia.) naughty naughty asain ebay man!

So I played both games last night, gotta say they both good but so far Im loving dragon age:origins though, great story, good game play, decent enough graphics and enough choices to keep you happy. ebay that shit, cheap as fuck

Hello

Not sure if it is for pc as well though.

cool, I need some buddies to join me for a game though, who wants to have a co-op or something tonight?
