Why not start a Borderlands Club House, that way the thread doesnt get buried, if people have to do a search for it, it will get forgotten.

If anyone decides to make a clubhouse toss me o nthe list under 1Kurgan1 on Steam.

Anyone got a review that shows the major differences between the classes? I'm looking to either be the Soldier or the Berserker, but cant decide which.

Just got back from my friends, he told me he purchased Borderlands on his Xbox 360 so I am going to go through it with him as Mordecai and I will go through it with my friend from the UK on the PC as Lilith.

Now, we aren’t going to start playing the game till he gets off from work tonight but I did stay and look over what I could in more detail. I’ve played numerous MMOs in the past so creating and preplanning builds is fun for me especially in this kind of game with a PvP endgame for those of us who enjoy PvP if it exists cuz I can tell you I enjoy the combat by watching videos. You can reset all your points so you’re not locked into whatever build you create for the story and normal PvE portion of the game.

Brick is a tank pretty much. The one who can take the dmg and deal dmg via melee/explosives.

Roland can be a medic, support via turrets, and all out dmg…probably the best class to play if you’re playing solo or in a group. I seriously will consider playing him on either the Xbox or PC

Can’t wait to get started and hope this helps.

oh and you can see the build calculator here...
