Borderlands

Post by maxietheboss »

Looking forward to this game. It's a cell-shaded role playing shooter. It has 87 bazillion different guns :P
It is set on a distant planet I think and the main goal is to loot, not too much info has been released :x
anyway a vid to convince you all to buy the game this fall. Hoping for something remotely similar to Fallout 3

Code: Select all
discuss

Which style do you like better, the e3 '08 realistic style graphics or the e3 '09 cell-shaded they switched to.
At first I didn't like the switch, but now I think the cell-shaded style really suites the game.
I think the new style really sets the game apart from every other release this fall

Yeah the cell-shading is a nice change, it won't look like every other generic shooter

yeah like an open lawless planet where everyone just has to loot whatever there is. Survival of the fittest.
I'm really interested in the story though, not much has been revealed about it

Why am I the only one thinking that this looks bad??
gameplay seems kinda boring and extremely slow-paced...

Just got this a few days ago....it's very very fun.
Coolest gun I've found so far was a rapid-fire pistol that lights people on fire.

So to sum it up ... It's an first person shooter with quests ? "Missions" i mean
And it had a badass female character, don't know any FPS's with that ... I just might get it.

But i'm no "pro" at these kinds of games =\

just finished the game in a week :x, the ending is bad like a big anticlimax.
However if you leave out the ending the story is good, quests are good and the looting is fun.
Overall i'd call it one of the better games this year

think about a regular RPG, except you fight mobs by shooting at them in first person view. the concept is similar to fallout3, but the difference is that borderlands plays like a FPS with RPG elements added on, whereas fallout3 plays like an RPG with FPS elements added on. borderlands has much better gun handling.

I've been thinking of getting this but im not convinced yet... My friend said it's like WoW and CSS rolled into one. 2 games i like, but do I really want them in the same game?

Also the graphics look very cartoony which is never something that appealed to me.

fallout3's shooting part handles differently from your regular CS/COD-style FPS.
btw what are u guys' steam account name?
