Yeah but Pickle's voice kept annoying me.

Like you can only take that in chunks

Damn, don't sugarcoat it, tell us how you really feel.

I liked Pickle. Especially when he called Tassiser a "bottle-and-glass arse". I'm using that one first chance I get.

I don't mind his character too much, it's a classic one but that voice of his is a bit grating after a while.

So I'm getting this thing happening on my melee/elemental specced lvl 42 Athena where when I hit enemies with a laser weapon (any element), it shocks surrounding enemies. The effect has a fairly large range (hitting targets across the room at times). It's pretty useful (especially for killing shields) but I have no idea what's causing it to happen. Tried with a fire assault rifle and corrosive pistol and neither triggered it.

That happen to anyone else or is it one of those rare beneficial bugs?

You sure it's not just the Overload skill? Or Smite if you shoot while jumping a lot (or Both since smite can trigger overload)? Maybe you have some class mod or OZ kit with some red text?

Yes and yes (I don't have enough points in Ceraunic Storm for either skill), the effect triggers when an enemy is hit rather than when an enemy is killed, and all my red text stuff is explained for.

Is it Moxxi's Vibro-Pulse laser?

I have it equipped, but I'm getting the same effect using other laser weapons. It might be a bug or something.

Yes. Reading it's description online confirms this bug. :D

Wow. The Invincible raid boss is just the final boss of the game, and it isn't even ramped to level 50 like the other Invincibles are. I defeated it quite easily with Claptrap on my first try... and 2nd, and 3rd. I'm farming the hell out of it.

.....OK, i knew the raid boss was just the final boss again (VERY lazy, Gearbox) but it's not at level 50? So I could go in there with my Level 32 Wilhelm and put my, Wolf and Saint's collective boots in it's ass?

It's not level 50 in normal mode (Which im fine with). It is in TVH mode.

It's just unusual because all raid bosses are generally well... impossible to beat on normal mode until you gain more levels in TVHM. Then there's Crawmerax and Terramorphous, who are no less than 50 on normal.

I was going to pick this up for Black Friday on Amazon but... it'd probably be smarter to wait for the Game of the Year edition with all the DLC included.

So Kotaku just reported that 2K games is working with a Shanghai based game developer to create Borderlands Online for China. No word yet on whether the game will tie into the main story, but I don't think it will since the game is only being developed just for China.

Players will take on the role of the original Vault Hunter classes from the first game. Soldier, Berserker, Siren, and Hunter. The Hunter is a woman with a drone.

They are remaking the first game into a MMO? A Chinese MMO. I wonder if they will just use the assets of the first or actually improve on some things. Character design not being one of them as it seems.

It's an interesting idea. The Borderlandsverse is big enough and interesting enough to build an MMO around. Plus, considering the end of BL 1.5 where the guardian said "we'll need all the vault hunters we can get it makes sense to have a huge influx of vault hunters.

Just as long as there's a mechromancer class.

So Ultimate Mode and the Holodome are out. Holodome is a standard arena pack, but with Athena narrating an abridged version of the story to Gaige and Axton. It's good, but there's still that problem of sound effects making everybody too hard to hear. I guess I have to turn on subtitles again, which I feel like ruins the cinematic immersion.

Am I the only person that thinks the holodome is too big? I spent more time looking for enemies than I did shooting them.
