I am getting this game, although no Lilith kind of sucks. The new characters just are not as cool except for Zero.
i was watching the trailer again and love all the stuff with the characters shown:
Mordecai - and his bird
Moxxi - big star of the dlc episodes
Tiny Tina - according to ign, that’s the name of new girl npc
Scooter - GET YOU ONE.
Dr. Zed - totally not Dr. Ned
Tannis - Crazy lady is back. No word on if there’s any fish riding this time.
Roland - He was my main in the first game
Marcus - now in golden god form. apparently the bandits started a religion in his honor as the Bringer of Guns.
Salvador - Interesting but nothing new from the last trailer
Maya - New powers seem to be some kind of area of effect thing. a bunch of her skill descriptions can be seen.
Axton - Standard looking. But that turret looks awesome.
Zero - Not the first cyberninja named Zero. Certainly not the last. He looked like he’s based on the female assassins in the General Knoxx dlc. Notice how there are emoticons that show up in front of his face.
Handsome Jack - the main villain. interesting he seems to have bits on metal bolted to his face.
Claptrap - Greeting traveler! There is now more WUB WUB.
edit: Lilith! How could i forget her and her live action cut scene actress.
No idea on the name on the new huge lady.
Dont forget lilith at the end!! Im guessing all the first borderlands vault hunters will appear sometime during the game as npgc’s.
Mya seems to have some kind of dimentional portal/telekenetic/black hole grab. The skills list look great… I wonder how much the initial level cap is?

Is this gonna be the special edition?
Awwwww yeah, time to play shotgun spec with the roland replacement and spec into some of that “ohheyIjustkilleverythingandmyHPneverdropstozero” spec, if it’s still possible.
The last chick was probably not lilith. I’m at work atm but wasn’t she that chick in the city who had half her face scarred? Would make sense since she was the narrator in the first Borderlands trailer.
the only big problem with borderlands was that once you got a combustion hellfire variant, you never stopped using it unless you found a better combustion hellfire
nothing could compare to its crazy fire damage output
so i hope gearbox makes the more than one unique be super awesome broken
Unless you had an awesome double anarchy. In the end I heard they were both equal when given to Lilith depending on which way you spec’d her. I’m really hoping they make Brick more useful though.
Using a weapon with Corrosive properties with a properly spec’d Lilith was so stupid fun.
Corrosive weapons were broken… they pretty much messed up everyone in borderlands…
My main hopes for the game are:
-more bosses
-harder bosses (bosses were too damn trivial with lilith+morde, even more trivial with clones)
-more sidequests (I still feel like there were not that many quests)
-a way to playback some of the tapes or convos (missed out on a lot of humor from the island of dr. ned dlc)
-more music (loved mad moxxi’s music, but too many moments in the game where there was just the standard soft music playing)
-Brick being useful
-retention of the humor that prevailed throughout the game, especially during dr. ned and general knoxx. I just hope it won’t get overplayed or campy.
The last Boss more then made up for the Bosses not being that hard, if you do not think that Boss was a bitch(without using the glitch) you are just a flat out fucking liar.
Maybe it was because I was using lilith, but he was tough in the beginning mainly because of the surprise, but he became cake due to stealth->regen your shield and get in a good position. Double anarchy+hellfire made killing just about anything for a second wind fine whenever I slipped up. I played after all the DLCs were on sale with my friends so unless I missed out on some hotfix that made him impossible I found him a decent challenge. If I was using Brick or someone else, yeah I’ll bet he was stupid.
I never attempted Crawmerax(Or wtfever his name was) I’m not that insane.
Don’t be a bitch I beat him several times. 
Crawmerax was a Bawse!! Doing a run against him with 3 other friends (without modded weapons) was fun as hell.
I hope the Gearbox gives a shit about the PC version this time. I want FoV options, an interface that isn’t tailored made for controllers and being able to turn off in-game voice chat
There is a tweak for the PC version to have it play at 60FPS as well as changing the FoV (though this one requires a hotkey). I agree though, needs less consolitis on the PC version.
I’ve actually tried that, and it didn’t work for me. What a shame.
The thing is the framerate cap highly affects the aiming precision which makes for some very unsatisfactory shooting. Try sniping at a low framerate - your crosshair will swerve everywhere.
This was also a core problem for Unreal Tournament III in which a highly varying framerate will extremely amplify the sensitivity of the mouse in occasions making an uneven unprecise control for aiming.
This is strange because previous Unreal engines didn’t even do this bug.
Damn that is a shame.
This game has mouse acceleration too… had to disable that as well. That and the in-game aiming help (which for some reason was on by default on my game and it was off for my friend).
IGN iNFO!!!
