Does the new class come out today? I haven't played BL2 in forever (ANOTHER playthrough didn't really appeal much to me after levelling every class to 50 already, I've seen the main story so many freakin' times, thanks), but a new class might be interesting.

Been playing Aliens colonial marines. Despite the crap reviews, I think it's not too bad a game. Doesn't touch borderlands of course, but it doesn't deserve half the crap it got.

hey man.,.. sorry about that.... my ISP is in a fucking mess, I was constantly being bumped offline. I did get your friend request though, however when I tried to accept it wasn't going through, no doubt due to my shitty internet connection yesterday.

no worries. :)

I'm sure we'll cross paths at some point, and I can hook you up.


Made it to lvl 11 with Krieg.........pretty fun to play........chaos on legs.
Although, I'll admit after saving roland, I was starting to feel the repetition.

yeahhhhhh... this is why I'm not even bothering to buy Krieg... the story in UVHM is now bordering annoying since this is the 5th time I'm playing through the game... once my ISP gets their shit sorted out I'm just going to open up my game to the public so I can push through it...

I made it to lvl61 last night... got my sandhawk so I'm FINALLY doing some decent damage and some what holding my own again.. right now I'm stuck on the leviathan on the first play through to get to the Treasure Room... damn sand worms are making it tough to focus on hitting the leviathan... totally rage quit lol... will go back in tonight and see if a fresh start and a calmer head will make a difference lol... what I REALLY want is a lvl61 Norfleet... the lvl50 one I have right now just doesn't cut it anymore.

^ good to hear!
probably have a norfleet for ya. ;)

I almost ragequit on Wilhelm in normal mode with krieg. I was low on all ammo, didn't have corrosive..........his action skill leaves you wide open to death.
For the first time, I went public. 1 dude joined, helped destroy Wilhelm.......took no gear, didn't do anything weird...........and left.
:eek:

Not sure I will continue with Krieg after yesterday. While I think it's real fun playing him...........I just think I need to play something else until the DLC comes out.

NICE!!! to me Krieg looks like he will kick some serious ass once he's leveled up... but being so heavely melee based I think most people after playing the other characters, unless you build Zero to be melee based, would have a hard time adjusting to the game play with him... I know I would... melee in BL2 is TOUGH...

My main character is Maya, but I've played Zer0 and Gaige the most otherwise.

Zer0 is badass, and his melee is much less quirky to use.
You aren't taking as much damage from a mob of bad guys while you're in deception.
The skills make a lot more sense overall.

Krieg will be better around level 25....when you can unlock more skills.....it's still fun to run around throwing axes tho.
People are saying Krieg is a lot like Maya........crowd control, but not a good raid boss fighter. probably true.
I don't farm the raid bosses much. run Pete once in a while to get stuff....but that's it. Hyperious and Vor are really hard, Terra is too, but possible............ haven't even tried Gee.

So yeah, need a break. Maybe I'll play Borderlands 1 now. lol

I had both Zero and Gaige @ lvl50 but Zero is more fun to play IMO so I decided to take him to lvl61 instead of Gaige so I guess he's my Main Character... I like going into deception to draw people in and having them bunch up to make picking them off easier... but what I really did like about Gaige was that if her robot kills someone while you're down you get revived, that's damn cool and a real life saver but I still find I can go in and tear up a room faster with Zero than with Gaige..
