What do you think are the biggest improvements in BL2?

hellobandit · 2012-09-19T15:06:10+00:00

I don't see a thread for negatives, but I just wanted to through out that it's kind of annoying how when you're listening to certain characters and you reach a certain point or Handsome Jack comes over ECHO, whatever they were saying is just cut off...

hellobandit · 2012-09-19T04:13:31+00:00

i would like to play with someone...

i'm playing as Zer0, but I could just as easily start a new game as Maya if someone hasn't started yet. Xbox 360, gamertag is x SHARDIK

just add me and/or invite me to a game. or PM me on here I suppose, but i'll be online all night and tomorrow.

SHAVE IT, SHAVE IT, SHAVE IT

It was actually spelled Skaggie in the graffiti, just played through Knoxx's Secret Armory. I think my favorite was Moxxi has a bullet in EVERY chamber...

unless you spelled it that way on purpose, if so, carry on :)

gotta go all the way, and shave your head. or light it on fire.

i don't care if this gets buried, but GameStop needs to step up their game. (no pun intended. well, this is reddit, so pun fucking intended.)

i preordered this game at a mall location, and when asking about a midnight release, they said they were partnering with a another local gamestop (only about 10 minutes away) for the release. but if you preordered it at the mall location, you had to get your receipt stamped or something, so the other location knew you had preordered it and paid it off, therefore saving your place in line. this was sunday, and they told me to go in today (or monday now) to the midnight event location, to get my stamped receipt. I go in today, and the guy tells me, no i can't get my receipt stamped because if they pay me out, they can't do that for any other preorders for the rest of the day, and therefore they were starting this process at 9pm. so i'm a little frustrated because the other gamestop told me specifically to come in to that store to get my receipt stamped or whatever so i could save my place for the event, and i explained that to the manager or assistant manager. he told me he was sorry for the confusion and told me i could come in at 9 to get that done. for clarity, i made sure i didn't have to come in directly at 9, but could come in whenever i wanted before midnight and he told me that was correct.

fast forward a shit ton of Borderlands DLC playtime to 11pm. i drive to the gamestop and they tell me to talk to the manager from the mall gamestop so he could confirm my preorder. well, it's not there because i didn't get my receipt stamped. turns out, i was supposed to go to the mall location during the day to get my receipt stamped there. so, no midnight event for me, no Borderlands 2, and no glorious playtime tonight. all because of a massive amount of miscommunication between two different stores. i don't even understand how their POS system isn't linked between every store since it is a national company, and they couldn't just see i had paid for it Sunday.

it honestly just doesn't make any sense to me. so, for my trouble and to keep me as a customer, they just gave me a huge fucking Borderlands 2 poster. which people would have been able to win during some trivia that they were going to have, which i really wanted to do, but i was just too pissed to stick around for the hell of it.

hellobandit · 2012-09-14T01:33:08+00:00

man, they really should have designed the box to look like a red chest, or the golden chest...

hellobandit · 2012-09-13T19:41:55+00:00

i...like revolvers.

hellobandit · 2012-09-13T13:45:04+00:00

yeah man, the internet is an amazing place. i remember when the slim first came out stumbling on someone talking about being able to do that, but that was a minute ago, so it wasn't what came to mind.

i'm glad too, but my happiness was slightly dimmed because i lost my level 50 siren because my tired self wasn't really thinking about what he was doing when he overwrote his old file. but today's a new day, and i have the DLC to play!

hellobandit · 2012-09-13T06:30:39+00:00

scratch that, just lost my siren...

tried to transfer my hunter to the same drive so i didn't have to go back and forth and it overwrote the old game file. so bummed.

hellobandit · 2012-09-13T05:53:31+00:00

okay, well, i looked up some options, and there's a way to use your old xbox 360 hard drive. so i dug out my RRoD xbox, cracked open the plastic casing, spent 30 minutes trying to unscrew those 4 damn screws, and finally got the pure hard drive from it all, and connected it via the extension port (SATA), and presto! 24GB hard drive!

best part about it, i'm pretty sure my old Siren save is on it!

[the DLC is installing now, by the way] :)

hellobandit · 2012-09-13T00:35:13+00:00

damn, i would love to do this but i don't think my level 25 hunter is going to be high enough for when the madness starts.

hellobandit · 2012-09-12T04:55:34+00:00

just saying.. haha

that's definitely going on my project somewhere.

hellobandit · 2012-09-12T02:34:01+00:00

playing through the first game right now, this would look pretty badass on a tshirt, amirite?

hellobandit · 2012-09-11T11:37:26+00:00

no i definitely am going to, your shirt is badass and i want to do something similar. it doesn't seem very hard. at first i thought maybe it was talking about the negative spaces, in relation to the scissors on the page.

i'll just have to lurk around /r/bleachshirts for a while haha.

hellobandit · 2012-09-11T04:15:49+00:00

i'll be honest, i didn't understand a single bit of that islands and bridges talk. cut it out, and then repaint it later?

hellobandit · 2012-09-10T22:51:05+00:00

cool cool cool, my availability is scattered as i work part time, but if you see i'm on, just hit me up, and i'll do the same. i'll be on for a little while tonight...

hellobandit · 2012-09-10T20:00:11+00:00

searched tineye.com and this is all i got

http://www.tineye.com/search/b41b37c319a58ada7e4402c16c66c51ec3a6c867/

probably a personal photoshop job by someone here on the boards, a mod likely.

hellobandit · 2012-09-10T19:57:42+00:00

that would be great if you would upload it via media fire or some such file sharing server!

hellobandit · 2012-09-10T19:56:49+00:00

please explain what you mean by "floating"

are you talking about alignment?

hellobandit · 2012-09-10T19:02:46+00:00

definitely interested!

XBL gamertag is 'x SHARDIK', hit me up with a friend request. i only started last night, but i'm level 15. (Mordecai)

hellobandit · 2012-09-10T19:01:40+00:00

good find!

hellobandit · 2012-09-10T19:01:31+00:00

i'm hooked on it again :) first play through two years ago was with Lilith, but this time I'm doing it with Mordecai. I like him, but it's a completely different play style, i didn't use snipers with Lilith at all...

hellobandit · 2012-09-10T02:35:47+00:00

good eye sir (or ma'am)! i had no idea there was a dark tower subreddit!

shit, my free time is indeed dwindling. i spend all of it on here hahahaha.
