Title: New borderlands DLC - The secret armory or general knoxx - Level cap now 61

This looks alot better than the mad moxxi's underdome riot thing. I never even finished it. 20 rounds of 5 waves? too long, get lost.

Set for release in 2 days, I'm looking forward to it  :)

The jakobs cove / zombie island of dr ned DLC was better than mad moxxi's riot. Was cool to go visit old haven again, but now overrun by zombies =o

what did moxxi's riot add in? more levels or just that extra area?

Only the extra dome area. Seemed more of like something released out of desperation or to keep fans happy than something they seriously worked hard on. It's just so repetitive. Do the first rounds and you've pretty much done all there is to the addon.

the whole point of the addon was to have nearly endless waves. play until you get bored, that was the point.

There are a lot of shitty FPS games on 360, to be fair. Its other big title, Gears of War (TPS, I know), isn't all that flash either.

Also, Borderlands is pretty poop. If I wanted to collect loot, I'd do it in Fallout 3 where there's less bugs and better quests :)

and better music.

The joke was Fallout 3 had less bugs than Borderlands even with its own large list of bugs. This is a true statement.

Wait, wasn't there supposed to be a Zombie Island DLC or something like that?

...you're telling me that wasn't any good? Or hasn't it come out yet?

The zombie island DLC came out last year =o

Then came the mad moxxi rounds / wave fighting DLC, and now this big DLC.

I guess you're right. It's just circumstantial on both accounts. I haven't read anything about Borderlands bugs though, so I don't know if there are fan patches to fix a bunch of bugs that the developers didn't fix.

I have never seen reviewers and /v/ cry more about bugs than when Borderlands was released.

I don't remember much of a stir at all about Fallout 3 from either party.

I've played through both more than once, and fallout 3 is riddled with bugs and places where shit just doesn't make sense.
Never had a real glitch in Borderlands, as far as I can recall.

To be fair, Bethesda doesn't exactly have a good record when it comes to fixing bugs. Even Oblivion had hundreds. That doesn't mean that the games aren't fun, though. While I do like Borderlands a lot, I get way more immersed in Bethesda games. For me, a game can have bugs, as long as they don't detract from the game's enjoyment. I can stand a broken quest or two, but I've had more crashes with Fallout 3 than any other game I've ever played. Conversely, Borderlands has never crashed once. This very well may be the opposite for many other people, but I can only judge based on my own experiences.

Borderlands' only real issue imo is that they decided gamespy was a brilliant online platform.

Otherwise I've had no real issue with either game on my computer.  Both are great, Borderlands is a better FPS than Fallout 3, and Fallout 3 is a better RPG than Borderlands.

I only had a single crash while playing Borderlands. On the contrary, I've had dozens of crashes from Fallout 3 and Oblivion; morrowind never gave me any problems. The game had far to many game breaking bugs to keep me from finishing it.

I might redownload the game since I'm lacking the funds to buy the game plus the expansions, but I think I'll wait till next month to see if I get some $$. This DLC looks insane, so it'll probably be worth it.

Did they add any new skills to it, or can you increase the skill levels beyond 5?

It's really hard at first, but once you gain a couple levels then it's not so bad.

Don't do what I did and start it at level 47 lol :) You should be no less than level 50 and even then you might want to wait until you're level 51, but you can't do that unless you get the DLC first, so ~

Shit was good man. There is a (somewhat) hidden boss called crawmerax the invincible. They're not kidding on the name, you can ONLY damage him on his critical hit areas. He drops a load of weapons. In the screenshot are just the things we DIDN'T want.
