Borderlands: The time has come
« on: August 25, 2010, 07:51:41 AM »
All right, gentlemen. Borderlands recently had a big sale and apparently several of us already have it, and well.... Borderlands is an awful lot of fun. So I hereby put forward the motion that we, as friends, should play Borderlands TOGETHER.

WHAT IS BORDERLANDS:

Borderlands is a First Person Shooter available on PC and Xbox (Unfortunately, the game doesn't let you mix consoles). It contains elements straight out of the Diablo school of roleplaying, with random drops and a metric fuck-ton of weapons to pick from, with several different styles. It also has the Diablo three tree skill system, and four playable classes to pick from.



.............and that's all I got. I'm apparently really terrible at making first-posts, but here we are. Let's discuss and play Borderlands together!

By big sale, how much do you mean it costs?

10 bux.

Not really interested at the moment. I definably need to purchase a new graphics card because the 1 year warranty expired just 20 days ago for my 4850 and Starcraft 2's overheat bug has caused severed screen tearing and artifacting.

I blame Laggy.

I have the game for both platforms, so I am up for Hunter hijinx with anyone. ShaleZero on Live, CrookedKnight on Steam. I'd rather play on Live, though, because I have a rocket launcher that shoots like a machinegun.

Well, it WAS ten bux.  Now back up to $29.99 after I went to buy it.

I have the PC version, and I'm up for some multiplayer sometime.  I work third shift though, so scheduling a game might be a bit rough.  We'll see.

I have a Siren slightly into playthrough 2 but would probably want to start a new character.

I have the PC version, never installed it. I'll give it a shot and make sure it runs smoothy and everything eventually.
Don't think of it as a novel. Think of it as a chance to retroactively win every argument you have ever walked away from.

What a coincidence.

I won't play it on Steam. I have it on Live. L18 Siren named Julia.

I work tonight but I've got the next three nights off if people want to try to get this going.
