Rocket launchers are awesome when used for Second Winds, as usually it only takes one shot for a guaranteed revive. They are definitely a lot more effective in Borderlands 2, though the ammo is unbelievably expensive (that's fair enough) - they really are a support weapon. I'm playing through as a Gunzerker for my third character and dualling up my SMG with a rocket launcher for ripping through enemies.

Yeah this is what I thought as well, but it is definitely not starting me at those fast travel locations, just at the start of the map so to speak. Oh well, just have to live with. My issue is I can think I have a few hours to play then really do not, but that is not going to change and is what it is. I may just start alt tabbing out of it and leaving it running. :laugh:

I don't know if someone answered this already, but make sure when you're done playing that you press start then quit (instead of just turning off your system). That's what I always did during the first one and it seemed to make me start up in a relatively close place to the last time I played. If you just turn off your system, it usually throws you back a ways. Though that was on the 360, so I don't know if it's different on the PC.

Has anyone figured out how/where the badass ranks are stored if you're playing on an Xbox? I'd really like to reset them and start from total scratch, but I don't know where they are saved. It's definitely not attached to your character save.

Get'em while they are hot..

Are those keys first-come first-serve? I tried using the PC one and it wouldn't work (on steam, that is....it said it was an invalid code).

EDIT: Ah, I see, seems like they are not game codes, but in-game codes....guess I should read more into these things. :p

No, Randy Pitchford said they're for testing out the Shift system again. They're valid for another hour and twenty minutes.

I finished it today and pretty much a couple of hours later i started "true vault hunter mode". So far like BL1, not having too much trouble but i know soon it will get very difficult. The minecraft weapon from Caustic Caverns so far is making light work of everything. It is so powerful.

Took me 50 hours to finish the first playthrough, that is also trying to finish every side mission i could find. Been a long time since i've sat and played a game for that long in such a short space of time. Really shows what a great job Gearbox did with this game. Everything they changed has made the game better. The story was much better and had some big moments in the story and great characters.

My Game of 2012 by far at the moment. Although i'm sure Assassins Creed 3 will be up there by the end of October.

In the first game you had claptrap for a bigger back pack, in the second i have been lost and going "NEED BIGGER BACKPACK!!!!" and spending the Eridium on clip upgrades at the blackmarket not realising that you can get a daily special for the backpack.

In the first game you had claptrap for a bigger back pack.

I did not know this, was it part of the "expansions"?

---------------------

I am still considering getting the game, don't know yet, because I also want GW2 as well.

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts

      By zikalify · Posted

      Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts by Paul Hill The founder of the Linux kernel has just announced the availability of Linux 7.1. This is a stable version of the kernel that will now be tested by various Linux distributions before it is shipped to users through update managers. Some users, like those on Debian, for example, might not get it for a long time, if at all, while Fedora users can expect it in the near future. With Linux 7.1 out on time, the merge window for Linux 7.2 is now open, giving contributors the opportunity to send in major new features that have been waiting for the last two months. Torvalds warned that he is currently travelling and will be in another timezone, so timing for the merge window may be irregular due to timezone differences and limited internet access. Torvalds said that he has already fetched early pull requests to allow him to do some offline work, but the travel could still cause disruption. Right now, he is not planning to extend the release, but did consider it. He said he might later regret not extending, though. In terms of this last week of development for Linux 7.1, Torvalds said there were no major or alarming changes. This week consisted mostly of smaller driver updates to GPU, networking, and sound, networking fixes, trace tooling fixes, and misc minor fixes. The shortlog this week lists fixes for driver bugs, memory leaks, I/O and USB fixes, networking and RDMA fixes, DRM/graphics fixes, and tooling and verification improvements. Specific fixes include USB series heap-overflow and buffer overflow fixes, and multiple use-after-free, memory-leak, and refcount corrections across subsystems such as i2c, zram, gpio, and net. There are fixes for graphics drivers, including amdgpu, i915, and virtio, as well as hypervisor and virtualization tweaks affecting mshv, vmbus, and hyperv. According to Phoronix, anyone running Linux 7.1 should look out for the new NTFS driver, Intel FRED for improved performance on Panther Lake and future CPUs, faster graphics with Intel Arc Battlemage, and improvements for older AMD Radeon GPUs. If you are running Linux on your computer and everything is fine, then you don’t need to worry about updating to Linux 7.1 as a priority; just wait for it to be pushed to you. If you have tried Linux on hardware but it didn’t work properly, trying again with a distro that uses Linux 7.1 could cause Linux to work on your machine, thanks to the new hardware support.

      you can also do this with this tool: PowerSettingsExplorer made by mbk1969 at 3dguru forum.. I found it by accident researching on modern standby and annoying quirks of it in 2022
