Yes! got the achievement. It was so funny!

Hey, finally finished the game. The ending was pretty bad, but the story's not the reason I enjoy the game.

Anyway, I want to finish all of the quests I didn't do. Are there any side quests that are past level 28 or 30?

Alot.

Middle of Nowwhere bounty board, New Haven, Old Haven, etc. There's some odd 130 side quests and like 30 main story quests.

What level were you when you finished the game? My friend and I have done all the sidequests so far and are around 35 and we are just getting past the fortress area or something like that. The middle of nowhere bounty board has a TON of side quests that take you all over.

I was level 35 as well when I beat the game. I was just hoping there would be higher level side quests. Like, it would be awesome if there were level 40 side quests

Highest quest in your first playthrough is 30 or 32 something like that. Your suppose to finish the game in the 30-38 range and start the 2nd playthrough from there.

I started the second play through at about level 38 and whew I'm glad I have my assault rifle! So far the game is pretty tough this second time around and is really giving me a great challenge. Just nine more levels!

To me they have higher health and respawns seem to happen alot more quickly.

For me, the crazy part is the large number of enemies thrown at you. You really have to be a lot more strategic and use more than your favorite gun in some situations.

A bounty board always seems to appear in the Arid Badlands in the middle of the map but I've never been able to find it. Am I doing something wrong? Is this a bug in the game or am I just blind?

No. I spent hours and nothing is there. It just appears on the map, no quests nor any indication from claptraps to go to it.

Well, I don't think ill get the millionaire achievement, as I have easily had over 6mil of money go through me. Finished First play through at lvl 35. 2nd play through is where the game gets fun and hard. The weapons power are insane as well.

I hope they put a higher lvl cap or something though. I just see it getting stale once I hit 50 and have only weapons to look forward to.

All true but they give better loot. I'm enjoying it more the second time around.

That's what I thought as well but so far, the loot has been just as crappy. High level stuff but nothing has been better than what I already have unfortunately. I still have to use the same crappy shield from my first play through.

Sounds like you'll have to do what I did. Just friend a friend who is on the second play through for example (or late in their first one) and have them give you a ton of loot on a newly created character.

how powerful is your shield? i found one that protects for over 800 points when combined with the correct mod, it was just in a skag pile on a mission to collect the tannis tapes, even online with high level players i havnt found another shield with better protection.

good machine guns with more than x1 elemantal seem nonexistant, all the x2 ones i found so far have crappy damage or clip size :(

I just started playing this game with one of my friends. We both saw a gameplay video, and decided to buy it on Steam.

Problem is, we're that similar we both made the same class. Ah well!

We've just arrived in New Haven. It's excellent so far.

This is a really fun game, just got to New Haven, only been playing single player so far. I've been using the same guns since level 12, somehow I managed to pickup a sniper rifle, shotgun and repeater, all with 5-10x the normal rate of fire.

      For me, the fundamental problems with these "smartglasses" is that they really don't work well for people with significant prescriptions and massively up the price if you use attached lenses if they have displays, and if they don't, then they're not actually "smart" anything, rather just connecting to your phone and relaying voice to an AI. In a few cases like this, they throw in small cameras to feed video to the AI. All around, these feel like both a solution looking for a problem, and the problems it tries to solve seem more easily solved by different approaches and designs. Oddly, if the rumours are true, Apple may actually have invented something for once and it kind of does this right: put cameras in ear buds and manage the interface to AI exactly as most of us do: tapping on an ear bud and saying "Hey Google" or "Hey Siri." That makes them compatible with almost everyone, can double up as a hearing assist device, an impaired vision assist device, a "smart" device... and answer your phone and play music. That just seems like a better solution all around.

    • Valve will finally let you build your own Steam Machine with SteamOS for desktop

      By branfont · Posted

      If you don’t get lucky with Valve’s Steam Machine reservation system, you can make your own Steam Machine instead. Valve says that “starting with the SteamOS 3.8 release, you can put together your own Steam Machine using whatever PC parts you want.” SteamOS 3.8.10 launched last week with a slew of updates, including “improved compatibility with recent Intel and AMD platforms.” Alongside that improved compatibility, Valve is giving gamers the green light to install SteamOS on their own desktops. In an interview with The Verge, Valve’s Pierre-Loup Griffais said Valve has been “rolling out improvements to [SteamOS] so it’s more compatible with desktop hardware,” including eventual support for Nvidia graphics. Griffais says Valve has “a growing team” working on Nvidia driver support for SteamOS, adding, “We’re collaborating with Nvidia very closely.” While he mentioned that Nvidia support might not come this year, Griffais emphasized that “it’s certainly something that we’re working on in the background.”     Subscription not needed: https://archive.fo/Tssfc Subscription needed: https://www.theverge.com/games/953411/valve-steamos-desktop-nvidia

      I thought they were supposed to reduce the amount of restarts needed to install these updates? It took 3 restarts to install this update...
