Post edited 14:46 – Feb 28th 2011 by BROTHER BROWN


I have finally decided to take Borderlands out of my pile of shame and give it a go.

I teamed up with Goddtodd last night and we dived head first in to it. We got to around level 8 each and just stalled , im not sure if we've just picked the wrong characters or we are just not very good. But if there is any one who wants to come guide us gently along please feel free to join us any weekend before i give up and lash it.

Well, I know with my gamestyle I should have picked Brick, but the game for some reason didn't import him when I joined up with you.

I saw Az was playing today, but I was too tired when I got up this morning to join him. I also want to do some editing of my 2010 CA Extreme footage before the Oscars start today. Hopefully I won't be too far behind you in XP next week.

guessing you're at bonehead just next to starting town – hes very hard at low level his gun just wipes out your life.

 

would say you need a fairly good gun with high damage – either a assault rifle or sniper to pick him off from long range

have 1 stay back to stop him from total re gen health when both die

or get a high level to join just to help wipe him out easily

no awesome i know thats the hardest boss in the game – relative to your levels.

 

rofl

ive played it so much its embedded who and where people can and do get stuck – his boneshredder smg is devastating agains low levels

i would help out but in 360 m8

 

if there are ANY missions still available go and do them before bonehead and try to be at least his level or higher.

maybe do some of the challenges for bonus xp – mission screen and press "Y" for challenges – kill 100 skags or kills with specific weapons will nab  you some precious xp which can level you up a bit

or you could dupe them –

whoever is host invite people in – move away from save poles?!?

whoever wants to dupe the gun – drops the gun and host kick the player out of the game – the gun stays in the floor for whoever to pick it up – invite the kicked player back in and it shouldn;t have save his game and when he comes abck in will have his gun still in his inventory.

 

Similarly – if the host wants to dupe a weapon – drop it have the other person pick it up – move towards a save pole – and the person who picked up the gun needs to have it save – move away from a save pole – they then drop the gun they;ve just been given and THEN get kicked from game – the host picks up the gun again and invites the kicked person back in and they should have the gun duped thumbs-up

Guys I'm deffo up for some MP shooty shooty action, currently at level 36, so Bonehead is a one shot kill for me if you still need help killing him. Do you have any of the DLC for Borderlands or just the standard game?

No DLC for me yet.

Had I realized that I was farther along than you, I would have suggested you hosting. Next weekend, you can host the game and we can make it private if you'd like. Those other two were nice enough fellows but they sure knew how to monopolize the voice chat.

dont forget the knoxx glitch….

at the end of the knoxx dlc – the armoury is accessible from crouching at a join in the scenery.

ps knoxx is the best dlc of the 4 – while claptrap is the funniest – "if you used more than one bullet you weren't using a jakobs" and "hey do you knwo when they're gonna turn the water back on?" awesome – just 2 which made me LOL while playing….
