Claptrap is pretty drat amazing. Sometimes things happen and suddenly all of my laser ammo is gone and everything is dead. This is especially great with the Tediore laser gun because then you just start throwing gun after gun after gun after gun

Yeah after switching from his Fragmented tree to the Boomtrap tree I'm having a much better time with Claptrap. I've got a maylay shield now too and it almost feels like I'm playing Krieg again. Krieg with lasers. Cream-of-Plenty posted:You know, I was a little disappointed when I first discovered that relics were removed from the game...but the more I see of these Oz kits, the more I actually think the kits are a significant improvement over the relics and a decent replacement. Most ordinary relics gave a single bonus (or maybe two bonuses, excluding the stockpile ammo relics) but even really basic Oz kits do 2-4 different things that can really mix things up. Same here. I've got one that gives me crazy fire rate and reload speed while I'm in the air, and I'm always in the air anyway. It's great.

Torgue Fiesta never really did very much for me, I could never actually hit things with the grenades and/or everything was already dead. I just love it for the music. Other opinions on action packages: Blightbot and Gaigemode are both effective for killing stuff while the minibot distracts them, though Blightbot has the bonus of extra music as well. The Axton turret bot usually got thrown into a dumb location where it couldn't actually hit anything. Zer0 mode is good cause you can go hog wild while invisible. Funzerker is really great at killing everything really fast and then making me waste the rest of my ammo on the floor and walls. Rubberducky mode is great for spamming buttslams. Pirate Ship mode is a work of art. Krieg mode didn't happen often enough

CJacobs posted:I did every sidequest and including some extra stuff and standing around, my playthrough took 21 hours. Not bad! I'm gonna play through the game on TVHM too just to see if UVHM is the only unlock after it. Claptrap is so drat fun that I don't want to stop! I also did all the sidequests etc. and mine also took about 22 hours. There was also that time where I spent like 20 minutes trying to figure out how to get up a goddamn platform but we will ignore that. I want to try a runthrough as Athena but I just remembered that meatbags have to worry about oxygen.

mastersord posted:I'll join this club too. I can't find Claptrap annoying because everyone else in the game finds him annoying which makes me want to shove him in their faces even more until their eyes roll so fast they break the sound barrier! I like all the characters! Yay! I actually like Claptrap a lot more after playing through as him, he's quite a bit more sympathetic. And still funny. He was always funny.

I bought this thing off a vendor and it's amazing: It can heal you, refill your shields, drop some ammo/health kits for you AND zaps melee enemies with lightning. And it makes beep boop noises! I love it! I've noticed a HUGE uptick in legendaries in TVHM. I got the Nukem off of Flame Knuckle, the oz kit from a vendor and now a Four Seasons grenade off a badass kraggon. And I'm not even to Concordia yet.

Claptrap is SO ADORABLE when you see him in a co-op game as one of the other (taller) characters. He's so tiny. I want to hug him. Also he holds his rocket launcher funny. ArchRanger posted:Got a hilarious glitch starting at the area before the final boss fight where for some reason the game was acting like I had zero shield recharge time so it was continuously filling. Since This seems to be a very common bug, I got it too when I was working my way to the final boss.

Krieg being Wilhelm doesn't make any sense, and Krieg being Tina's father was never officially confirmed by Gearbox. The credits at the end of TPS show Wilhelm going full bald-guy cyborg and fighting alongside Jack looking just like he did in BL2.

Man I can only hope the DLC packs for this game are anywhere near as good as BL2's DLC. That extra content is what really makes BL2 stand out in my opinion. I didn't play BL2 for more than like 2 hours when it first launched, but 9 months later I dumped 400 hours into it.

Wyld Karde posted:Heck, maybe come Borderlands 3 it'll be Athena filling that role, providing the voice of leadership and reason that the vault hunters and the Lance need, and that neither Lilith, Brick or Mordecai can provide. I think it should be Maya honestly, she's probably the most sane person left on the whole drat planet. But it kinda feels like the BL2 vault hunters have been left by the wayside. My last real hope to see anything else out of them is the Telltale game, which at least has Zer0 in it.

Lilith doesn't really bother me, I just kinda wish they hadn't decided to make her basically the main character of the whole franchise. There's other characters, Gearbox!

Skandranon posted:I think it's a mistake to compare TPS to BL2 + all DLC. TPS just came out, a year from now it will be a more fair comparison. We all got what was promised, which was more Borderlands + low gravity and lasers. If you think of it as 4 character DLC + 2 campaign DLC, it's worth the price. When BL2 first came out I only played it for maybe 2 hours before getting bored. So TPS is already ahead in that factor.

Sheesh. So many people think the story in BL2 is so bad, I'm curious what exactly you're comparing it to? I thought it was just fine for a game about shooting and looting. I don't expect a Game of Thrones level of story there. If you want a good Borderlands story go play the Tales game. It's fantastic. Also Krieg is still the best character and I'm pretty sure Burch had some hand in making/writing him, so you're all wrong and dumb.
