Borderlands 2: General Discussion

[McJeepers (mod)]

Me too, but I only got 1 promo code & ordered 2 copies, but Buddie let me have it. I love the gun I got. I accidently lost one of the guns, oops. I think we had to pay extra to get delivery yesterday. IM so tired today, & all I'm going to think about all day is getting home to play. This one is worse than Boulders gate, I love it like crazy!

Had the same issue, called up customer support, and they gave the code over the phone. No hassles took all of 10 mins to fix. Give em a call.

Guys, how do you handle loot?

From what I can tell, the money is shared. What about the ammo?

I'm very frustrated with the items (weapons, shields, etc.). Last night I was playing and a couple of people just rushed all of the boxes and grabbed everything. I ended-up with everyone's hand-me-down weapons. We killed Boom-Bewm and a guy snapped-up his dropped weapon, no discussion, no mention of the drop to anyone else. This was the second time I killed this boss. The first time I didn't even realize he had dropped anything.

How do you handle this? Do you have an agreement? Is it an unspoken courtesy among friends to share loot? Is it finders-keepers?

There is this sort of unspoken rule about it, but if you played the first one, you should kind of know what class gets what first. For example, SMG's are Sirens, Assault Rifles for Soldier, etc.... Having said that, find a group that communicates what weapons were picked up on accident or not are always a plus. All else fails.....Duel for it

I've never played Borderlands before but based on alot of the comments about looting, etc...I'm very surprised the game doesn't have a loot roll associated with it so it doesn't matter who actually gets to the crate or boss first because you all get to "roll" for the loot.

It's pretty standard in other loot-based games, specifically the MMO genre. Seems stupid not to include it in a game like this...

Speaking from experience, loot rolls can be abused just as badly as not having them. All that will happen is that people who can't use the weapon/item will roll on it to vendor it, and then feel entitled to it when they win the roll, even though it is an improvement to someone else's character.

One other thing. I have in my possession three, yes three, golden keys. Apparently you get one for pre-ordering, one for getting the season pass, and I believe you get one for signing up for their online thing (similar to Battlefield 3 battlelog).

Entelenki, 1 your friend needs to be told, "hey I kinda need weapons too!" I feel your pain as the other night I reached level 10, was using level 5 weapons, they got the hint when I wouldn't engage ANYTHING. ohohoh 4 damage points, got an hour for me to kill it? Once we finally got going we share weapons according to what people are playing, if aggressive let them have the shotty/combat rifle etc...

What's the online thing / where do you find it?

It's called Shift. You should be able to access it from your Borderlands Game Menu. I believe it may be under Extras.

Do questlines carry over b/n your game and you play in a friends game?

I helped Veet do the Flynt mission and it seemed to have been completed in my game to. Even more strange was when I went back in there, Flynt came out of the ship and was shooting down at my from high above. I was able to whittle him down from afar w/out having to go refight him on the ship (b/c I had done so in Veet's game).
