    Was a fun night of slaughter! Thanks guys. Great to take down the Warrior again :)

    Oh, that Dresden! Malo and I beat normal last night. I fooled around with TVHM for a few minutes, but it was getting late. I gotta say it's definitely much easier with a Siren. When we're all of level, we should do some of the raid bosses.

    Any time! Like I said, we have a tendency to play pretty often in groups. So feel free to join us whenever!

    Damn you guys must've been up late! I quit around 11 and we still had some way to go IIRC. Also I suspect the going was a little slower after I was gone :grin:

    Wonder if I could have 1 shotted the Warrior with that rocket launcher...

    Everyone else left, but I stayed up a little bit. My buddy couldn't actually unlock TVHM. Apparently, he got a message saying he never completed the storyline? I've never heard anything about that before.

    I have a thread open on the Gearbox forums about PhysX. Hopefully, I can get some sort of resolution.

    Maybe he hasn't completed all of the story missions?

    Hopefully, but I honestly don't think it's a glitch. I think the PhysX stuff in this game is just poorly coded and overdone. There is no way it should bring down systems like ours, even when set to Medium!
    As soon as you set it to low, all your performance problems go away.

    I'm assuming that if you do storyline missions 1-24 then join another persons game at mission 30 to the finish, then it wants you to do missions 25-29. (Numbers just made up of course)

    Yeah, otherwise you could just pop into somebody's game to fight the warrior and then game over.

    Deep SIlver's catalogue is on sale at humble Bundle.

    https://www.humblebundle.com/


    No need for Steam sales anymore. we also get DRM free copies which we can install on any
    computer !

    Edit: Ah ! Turns out its a Steam only bundle ! Bah !
    EDIT 2: bought it for Sacred 2 Gold and Risen 2, two games I never bought but always wanted to try. I am lost in Torchlight 2 right now, so Sacerd2 could be up next. But its 14gb download ! WTF have they got in there?!?!

    Sacred 2 has a relatively huge static world. Hence the large size. If you've never played Sacred 2 before, word of warning. It's a Diablo clone with a unique way of doing skills. Skill re-use timer, cost, and power goes up quite significantly with each skill upgrade. The re-use timer and cost can be reduced via level + relevant stat. If you upgrade a skill too much too fast (skill upgrades are dropped, and not spec'd sorta like Diablo 1) then you'll find it virtually unuseable. It's a huge balancing act to find the right upgrade level for you depending on how powerful and how frequently you want to use it depending on your level and skill point allocations.

    Thanx for the tips, but I will understand only when I play it :D ! And I haven't played any of the Diablo games, just Torchlight.

    Yup, bought that too :) !

    Still not enough to get me to install Origin. I don't think I'd install it even if I got games from EA totally free.
