    I'd like to say I'm sick of all the remasters, but I am looking forward to playing through Borderlands 2 again

    This will also include 4 player local co-op for the first time.

    Money for old rope.

    When are the new games coming?


  • Registered Users Posts: 978 ✭✭✭wexdevil

    I was lucky enough to see it on Facebook so decided to post it here. For a remaster it is brilliant value for money with all the dlc content and the game play hours for both games. Loved Borderlands 2

    Was very disappointed with TPS, and really don't know if I could play BL2 again given how much I played it the first time around.

    But I'm still buying this because f*ck you!


  • Administrators, Computer Games Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 32,182 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭Mickeroo


    If the first game was in it I'd get it but I played the others much too recently to be bothered with this.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,870 ✭✭✭✭Generic Dreadhead


    Was is 1 not included?

    Nope. Just 2 and the pre-sequel. In fairness though, BL2 has a LOT of content


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,891 ✭✭✭✭Thargor


    2 was probably my fav game of the last couple of years, definitely fav FPS but if I played it again I think Id puke. Have TPS ready to go but peoples comments on here have put me off with my gaming time being limited atm.

    Well they've got what, Furious 4, Battleborn and Homeworld Remastered in the oven officially? I'd imagine they're also rebuilding their Borderlands tech in Unreal 4 for a new entry in that series at some point.

    Either way, I imagine we'll be hearing about their new titles in the run up to E3.


  • Registered Users Posts: 22,929 ✭✭✭✭ShadowHearth


    4 Player couch co-op sounds fantastic.

    I wont be buying it right now, but I can see myself buying it at some point for local co-op.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,092 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    So they are actually including all the DLC? Huh, figured they'd leave a few out as normal and charge extra for them.

    There's probably still a good bit of BL:TPS DLC to come which doesn't seem to have been included. So it'll probably just be the DLC for both games released-to-date

    It says for TPS there is "upcoming" campaign add on and playable class included, which I'd imagine doesn't mean what's already been released.

    If you look at 51 seconds into the video it shows the cover art for everything released to date, but does have "And more" written beside it so I would assume it will include the other 2 pieces of season pass DLC for TPS which will be another character and a story based one, though 'story' is open to debate given the last bit they released.

    Or if you look at the last two items in the list of included content. ;)

    Sorry, I meant what's been released up to the release date of the game. I think the campaign add on and playable class are due to be released around that time too. I just meant that with the amount of dlc BL2 had outside of the season pass, chances are we'll see the same again for TPS (eg dlc for the next year or so which we'll have to pay for)

    I'd probably get it for TPS though BL2 was great fun and good humour

    Anyone after picking this up interested in doing a 4-Player Co-Op play through on PS4 of Borderlands 2? We have 3 of us (with experience ranging from Very High to New) looking at getting a game going, said I'd throw the feelers out there

    Thought you could just drop in and out of games. That's what we did the first time round, I thought. Been ages since I played it.
    (Un)Fortunately my copy just arrived this morning. :pac:

    Well yeah, you can, but what with all the other games that exist I'd like to just have one character for online and have everyone on the same level and missions completed etc.

    The days of running 4 characters al at different levels are done and dusted (damn you Destiny!!!)

    You level up extremely fast when playing with higher levels, when I started a game with 3 lads and a forth jumped in when we were all 20+ he was the same level as us after about an hour from playing on the higher level. For the first 40 minutes he just stayed on mic for a chat as nothing he did even dented the enemies.

    If you near in level everyone really just levels out after a few missions, so unless someone is 10+ levels higher/lower it's not really an issue.

    Was just looking to see if a 4th was interested in playing regardless.

    I know you can power level, I did it before, just thought it might be fun to start from the start with a group of 4

    Didn't really mean power levelling where there's a huge difference in level but if 3 can play one night and the 4th joins up again the next he's not going to be lower for long.

    The game is also great on tracking what you've done and not, so if you did mission 15 already with a group and then go back after completing mission 14 it'll ask if you want to skip mission 15.

    Been meaning to jump back into this or for the pre-sequel, and finish the DLC for B2.

    Well here's your chance! Can you pass up such an opportunity!

    Sure, if you can't find a 4th but time wise I can't really play during the weekday.

    One of the 3 has never played the game before - so for his sake and for his enjoyment of the game we are trying to stay reasonably well synced up. In my experience, the game can be an awful lot less fun if you are 2 levels behind your playing partners and the mission level.

    For normal mode and TVHM it does not matter as much - but for UVHM the tighter the sync, the better for everyone.

    Hopefully we will get to play through all the way and get to unlock the OP levels (because I really need a 5th Op8 toon!) - but that will depend on how much Cormac and Mitch enjoy playing the game. The plan is to play about twice a week on the coop characters.

    When we are bored with BL2 we plan to give TPS a whirl.
