Oh shit shit shit shit, I love last stand! Saved my ass like 100 times already. Just killed ol
while in last stand as those flying heal bots destroyed my shield in a second!
Visual style is great imo! I like it more than BL1.
But what I cannot understand, my only complaint so far, when the game saves at those save stations, why those the game not save my position and progress such that I can continue mid mission?
Just found a MIRV grenade or whats it called which split into 8 small bombs...cool!
I hope to find a cool new sniper, maybe purple...still using my lvl 13 sniper, although I am at lvl 18.
Missions are great so far! What a great game...

the game is fun. I respecd to Sniper tree and that helps save me f5rom running in thinking I can use great melee skills on them.
That Roland mission seemed like it would never end. Must have taken me half the day. Not having a corrosive weapon at the beginning sisnt help.
And the pizza delivery message was a laugh. A laugh with some of the best exp so far!
I dont notice too much of a style difference from bl1? What am I not seeing?

For me the visuals are beyond fantastic. The game reminds me of killzone and uncharted visuals. Lovely !

After pizza delivery, did you go straight through the pipe in the back and solved the puzzle? Got major EXP boost with this puzzle...
I just like the addition of the light shafts, lightning sometimes seems more realistic...fighting through the night and than looking back in the morning with all landscape in the sun light...butt stallion!!!

What puzzle are you guys talking about? I don't remember a puzzle in the pizza mission. I must have totally missed it.
Regarding visuals, I think some of the terrain on some levels looks very realistic, but it's very subtle. Some of the ice looks shiny in areas, almost like it's melting. Again, it's subtle but overall it strikes me as an improvement over the first game.

No, I totally ignored the lights and switches on both runs through the area. I'll have to go back and see if I can figure them out.
The main environmental change I've noticed in the game is the water at the entrance/exit to Sanctuary, and of course, the time of day changes which is cool.

The other night when I was in Xarth's game, we solved that puzzle. It was quite funny.
There's a few other slight puzzles elsewhere too that when solved open up some minor areas that include a loot chest or two.

Has anyone managed to find a decent assault rifle? I don't like the ones that are basically a miniature rocketlauncher. They fire way too slow and inaccurate.
I'm going try to focus all my equipment on doing melee damage to see if I can't improve my Zero that way. I now have some transfusion grenades and a skill gives me some health when killing enemies with melee. That should at least increase my survive-ability. Guns with good stats and extra melee damage do seem to be hard to come by though. Do have a very nice machine pistol with slag and 50% melee damage.

Overall, I'm finding better weapons during solo missions now than I did in BL1. I suspect it's because of the Rare Loot Drop class mod I got as a preorder bonus.
Anyway, guns aren't a problem. Got badass snipers in all varieties and a truly badass rocket launcher (4500+ explosive damage). Even melee isn't too bad, as long as I go after weakened enemies. Plus, the sniper tree options are getting very interesting.

What's "decent"? What level? I found a great assault rifle early on, a Jakobs dealing 67 damage. I think it was level 7 or so.
I've stopped using it in favor of other weapons, but certainly wasn't a mini rocket launcher, it's slower than SMGs but was still pretty good.
I've got a couple of weapons with 50% melee damage.. not on purpose, I gave up on melee with Zero until the end game.
Has anybody started a list yet of what the special red writing means? I've got a bunch of weapons with the red writing bonuses but have no idea what they mean.
