Nice!   :D

I'm game for some Vault hunting this Friday(roughly around 9pmEST / 2pm GMT) if anyone wants to run through some Skags. Otherwise I'll try to join whatever's on the menu.

I have all DLC.  I'm a level 60-something Siren, so if you're having trouble completing a specific mission I can probably help.

My main focus is the exhausting Mad Moxxi Underdrome 20-round battle extravaganza.  With the help of Kini, Loot and Zero, we completed the first last night.  2 more to go.   ;D

I'm usually available:
Monday - Thursday, 10pm - 3am GMT
Friday, 10pm - ? GMT (only after Friday Game Night)
Saturday, 8pm - ? GMT
Sunday, 5pm - 3am GMT

It looks like Thursday 10:30pm - 3am GMT works out for me and Loot.  That should be enough time to complete 20 rounds.  Anyone else want in on that action?   8)

I misread, I though you said you wake up at 10:30pm GMT.   :-X

Friday would only work after Friday Game Night is over.
Would Wednesday 10:30pm - 3am GMT work for you?

It looks like Friday may be the only neutral ground we have.  If you guys are willing to stay up late again, we can regroup after Friday Game Night wraps up.

The AK Forty Sexuals (http://360fahrenheit.com/fahrenh1_forum1/index.php?topic=1256.msg38881#msg38881) just got booked for an impromptu gig tonight.  I hate to do this, but I'm not going to be able to stay online much later than 12am GMT (7pm EST).   :'(

You guys are still welcome to take on Moxxi without me, but it may be harder and take longer.  Otherwise, here's my schedule again.

Monday - Thursday, 10pm - 3am GMT
Friday, 10pm - ? GMT (only after Friday Game Night)
Saturday, 8pm - ? GMT

So how's everyone's schedule for this week? Anyone want to have a run through anytime?
Title: Re: Borderlands Co-op
Post by: nCogNeato on June 08, 2011, 11:14:30 PM
I'm going to go out of town Saturday morning, so I won't be up late Friday night.

However, I am taking Friday and Monday off of work, and will probably be spending all day playing videogames.  That also means I'll be up later than usual Sunday night as well.
Title: Re: Borderlands Co-op
Post by: Dankinia on June 09, 2011, 04:06:46 AM
Friday won't work for me this week, but Sunday afternoon I'm free. 
Title: Re: Borderlands Co-op
Post by: zerosum on June 09, 2011, 08:43:50 AM
I'll have to verify, but I should be able to make it Sunday, probably rather late though, 8PM PST, 11PM EST.

That's a good idea.

You're level 19 will make it easier for us.  Plus, you get a free 4-hour achievement.   ;)  Just make sure your power/internet doesn't turn off.   ;D

I'll be there.   8)  I've even set an alarm on my phone to remind me, since I tend to turn my brain off and forget things during the weekend.   ;D

Post by: nCogNeato on June 18, 2011, 06:21:43 PM
Stick a fork in Moxxi, she's done!

The only thing I have left to do is the collectible achievements for the New Revolution add-on.

The Lubricator
Find 25 oil cans
10G

Bobble-Trap
Collect 15 claptrap bobbleheads
10G

What a party!
Collect 3 panties, 5 fish in a bag, and 15 pizzas
30G

If anyone would like a lvl 60+ Siren to help them with completing New Revolution, let me know.   :)
Title: Re: Borderlands Co-op
Post by: nCogNeato on June 21, 2011, 03:14:22 PM
I completed Borderlands last night.  I was able to get the frustrating final collectible achievements during the final boss battle of New Revolution.

As you enter the boss battle, there is cluster of rocks immediately to the left as you enter the area.  You can duck and hide behind the largest of these rocks, and safely snipe/rocket MINAC's turrets, leaving only his giant red eye-lazer to worry about.  Instead of finishing him off, let him continue spamming kamikaze claptraps at you while you hide safely behind the rock.  The kamizake claptraps will search for you, fail, then explode leaving various claptrap parts (ie. collectibles).  If your console's 'auto-off' setting is disable, and you have a wired controller, you can leave the game running for hours without having to worry about the game pausing or shutting off.

I left my game running for nearly 18 hours (sleep + work), but I do not recommend this.  The amount of claptrap parts nearly overloaded my console's memory, and made the game nearly crash from sluggish lag (see below).



6-10 hours should be enough to gather enough claptrap parts for all of the collectible achievements.

BTW, while I may not be playing Borderlands much anymore, our friend Slamurai is a proud Borderlands addict.  He 100% the game long ago, but still likes to help low-level players complete missions / achievements.  It gives him an excuse to keep playing it.   ;)

So don't be shy to invite him into your game.  He always wants to play Borderlands.
