Fleshstick? There were echo recordings about him selling out Tina's parents (supplying them to Dr. Samuels, who performed Slag experiments on human subjects for Handsome Jack), I don't recall anything saying he was one of her parents. | ||

tbh I am not liking this as much as when I started BL2. The low gravity environment is more pain than fun: you get loot scattered everywhere (i also dislike how 99% of loot in BL is useless). The 1st real boss on the moon leaps left and right and is almost impossible to chase down as he shoots his laser gun at you. Ended up cheesing the encounter by staying on ground level and headshotting him with a scoped pistol when he tries to do a shootout against me: there is even a convenient "room" in the wall to hide inside for shield recharge too. As others have mentioned, the bulletsponge thing I disliked a lot. There is also the concern of non-scaling skills (a lot of special procs only scale by level and not gun damage, minions/summons also tend to have not enough HP to be able to survive any UVHM fight. | ||

Ugh the psycho you electricuted at the tea party was the person who sold out her family. I believe his name was Fleshsticks. They never really clarify or specify who Tiny Tina Dad was. Some people speculate that the Psycho playable class character is her father driven mad by experiment from handsome jack but he probably the closest thing you can probably speculate on who is Tiny Tina Dad. | ||

I went and looked it up, yep I was wrong. I misread the sentence where that was mentioned in the Echo. Sorry bout that =D | ||

after doing these "Memory Budgets" changes in the willowengine.ini file [MemoryBudgets] //AnimationMB=15 //AudioMB=10 //CodeMB=30 //LevelObjectsMB=4 //TerrainMB=4 //GameDataMB=3 //MaterialMB=1 //ParticleMB=5 //PhysicsMB=10 //ScaleformMB=8 //ShadersMB=10 //SkelMeshMB=2 //StaticMeshMB=10 //TextureMB=120 AnimationMB=32 AudioMB=16 CodeMB=64 LevelObjectsMB=16 TerrainMB=16 GameDataMB=16 MaterialMB=16 ParticleMB=16 PhysicsMB=32 ScaleformMB=32 ShadersMB=32 SkelMeshMB=16 StaticMeshMB=32 TextureMB=256 the game just flies along at 60 FPS on my crappy computer with the settings cranked. the only thing i disabled was "DynamicShadows"... and that nVidia physics stuff. Overall i'm impressed with how much better optimized this game is on both my desktop PC and my laptop. i didn't expect that. i wonder if other people with crap hardware are experiencing the same improvements i am. | ||

It's pretty fun, as per borderlands2. Low gravity is nice for me, I like to jump around ! I started with claptrap and he is really fun. he is really different then any other character that I did play in other FPS. | ||

This can be explained since in normal mode, it was around the lv1-6 range, so obviously you level up really quickly. However, in TVHM, I ended up as a lv31 character with only lv35 missions in my logs. My melee athena also seem to have reached some sort of a bottleneck (partially due to being underleveled and undergeared): it takes a good minute to kill a super badass enemy with melee attacks: I guess I am missing a good Roid shield: I have seen pictures of legendary roid shields with unbelievable amount of Roid damage. The lack of % melee modifiers in BL2 might have to do with the significant boost in Roid shield effectiveness. Oh, and Rend... it used to be able to bleed out an enemy, now its damage is just... so insignificant. The Torgue-o! Torgue-o! quest is game breaking. The mission-only gun is a moxxi gun with 60% life steal ("Punctilious Probe"). Using that gun (even without +50% melee dmg blade) keeps my health topped off at all times. In fact, out of frustration, I made a new Nisha, and is now lv14 using that gun+using slam as my primary attack, swapping to a shotgun vs airborne targets. They have added a bit of "replay value" by having slightly different dialogue in TVHM. In normal mode, it was Lilith interrogating Athena, in TVHM, Tiny Tina came in and had Athena retell the story. That was an interesting touch. Since you can now shatter an enemy, I am debating if I should switch my Shock O2 mask into a Frost mask for the chance to freeze on slam. Shooting them with an explosive gun shatters them (shotgun?). Shock O2 masks are nice for removing shields and mostly unmitigated damage.... | ||

after level 5 i felt too guilty.... so.. i deleted my pirated copy of the game and bought 2 keys for $90 USD from CJ's CD Keys. i'd like to take a scene from Pulp Fiction that is a good analogy for comparing Borderlands2 to Borderlands:TPS. "you know what the best part of Borderlands:TPS is? its the little differences... i mean.... BorderlandsTPS has got the same shit BL2 has... only thing is.. its just a little bit different..." | ||
