SimplySchizo Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Trailer: http://www.youtube.c...h?v=BDv9IraKd1E Gearbox Software has officially announced and detailed the third and "largest" helping of downloadable content for its popular shooter RPG Borderlands, the level cap raisin' "Secret Armory of General Knoxx." Gearbox and 2K promise "brutal, never-before-seen enemies in a huge new environment complete with tons of brand new missions" as well as "entirely new weapons and items" in The Secret Armory of General Knoxx. The next Borderlands expansion will, as previously promised, also raise the level limit from 50 to... a number larger than 50. The Secret Armory of General Knoxx appears to be tailored to challenge players "from around level 34 to level 50" according to Gearbox's announcement. The developer did not date or price the expansion, which is due for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC. But it did provide two screen shots! Here's the second. Update: Feb.19.2010 Jeff Gerstmann over at GiantBomb did an interview with Paul Hellquist, Game Design Director at Gearbox. Very revealing interview/preview of what's in store for this epic expansion. 2 new vehicles, the 'Monster', and holy crap the other is called the 'Lancer', -a sweetass 4player apc where all jump right in and man a weapon! A new Layer to Weapon/Gear rarity. So much more... for $10USD. Head on over to GiantBomb and check out the Video Interview for the lowdown!

Slane Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Awesome. I need to go back and do all of Mad Moxxi still though. All developers need to learn from Gearbox and pump out this much DLC. It's all been evenly and nicely spread out and been adding some very nice additions to an already great game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikkiRox Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 YAY! looks awesome. Bring on the higher lvl cap! I've only played Moxxi's expansion once :( makes me sad. It was ok. but it feels like I wasted my GP on it. I did like Jacobs cove tho, I loved the humour :) I just hope there's more humour like that in the new expansion.

Guyro Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 just finished zombie island today and thought it was amazing and well worth the gp, i agree with nikki and really hope that this new dlc has the same amount of humour the full game's humour was nothing like zombie island?

The full game was a little more serious than Zombie Island. Zombie Island was pretty much a p1ss take. It was great :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iconboy Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 How much do these expansions cost on xbox live? And do you think there will be an edition of borderlands that comes out that have these already preinstalled like the GOTY. Edition of fallout 3?

NikkiRox Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I'm sure Borderlands will eventually come out with a GOTY title. It should as there are so many expansions coming out. L4D has and Fable II have GOTY editions and they've only come out with 2 expansions each. Each expansion on Xbox Live is about 800GP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iconboy Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I really want to play borderlands should I buy the game and then just get this expansion as it raises the cap go the max? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pheee Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I thought I read or heard somewhere that they might release the DLC on a disc like Fallout 3. Might make sense for those already with the game but offline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tharp Daddy Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Awesome, can't wait for this new DLC. I hope there's a new gun type or gun mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikkiRox Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Concidering the amount of weapons in Borderlands I always manage to pick up crappy weapons. The Double Anarchy's are the best, you can pretty much hold onto it throughout the whole game (unless you find a better one) I agree with Ruran and hope they have new gun types and mods :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimplySchizo Posted February 20, 2010 Author Share Posted February 20, 2010 Edited first post with info. Zomfg a 4 player APC vehicle, new weapon/gear rarity layer, more pistolas! Truly a badass xpack on the way. Jeff Gerstmann over at GiantBomb did an video interview with GearBox Game Design Director. Check it out !!!

NikkiRox Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 I played it for a little bit on Xbox360 last night. Pretty awesome! :D Loving it so far!
